Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron is a black republican who should be forever shunned.

He did his duty for "massas" trump and McConnell.

2. Totally inappropriate nt

[brush]

4. I agree, it took him 195 days to work with the Kentucky PTB to figure out how not to charge...

killer cops for Breonna Taylor's death.

[VarryOn]

8. I'm sorry I wasn't clear...

My issue was with the OP's use of the gross term "massas" to frame the relationship between an African American politician and a couple white ones. In this day and time, hundreds, if not thousands, of AA and white politicians interact and collaborate to govern us. The vast majority do so in good faith. To give an AA person the "voice" where they'd use that term says lot about the person who'd even think of it.

But, yes, 195 days was entirely too long.

11. America was built on a racial caste system

where the white race was the master class and the non-whites were the slave classes.

Those non-whites who still kiss the feet of racist right-wing whites who want to maintain the racial caste system are by definition people who are kissing the feet of the 'massa' - and non-whites such as myself have a right to call this out.

[brush]

13. If you think the OP says something about me, you need to review your own thinking. I stand by...

what I said. The PTB, the white power structure, used the black republican attorney general, a McConnell protege, to be the spokesperson to their sanctioning of how a black woman's life doesn't matter, that it's ok for them to pour bullets into her body and not be charged but it's not ok for their bullets to enter into the walls of the adjoining apartment occupied by white neighbors.

I repeat, and I am African American, the black uncle tom did massa's bidding all right. He got up in front of a national audience and announced on TV that Breonna Taylor's life didn't matter. You must be white and don't realize how most black people view people who allow themselves to be used like this.

Your comment says a lot about you. Do you know of the term "being woke"?

Wake up.

[VarryOn]

15. I apologize....

I didnt know you were AA. You can use 'massas' with impunity. It's just that I'm extra-sensitive about such language, and I assume the worst about everyone that uses words like 'massas'. Lesson learned.

And yes, I'm...[checks notes]..."woke". I've always been; well before that term arrived on scene.

[Chili]

19. I said something similar while ranting at the guy building my new fence

"rant rant rant rant and you know who this bastard is, right? Trump's BOY. McConnell's BOY. Kissed trumps butt at his convention, just licked it right up. BOY."

I'm AA too (woman), and so is my fencer, who laughed. He got it.

But I admit, it was my hatred for that kind of person to make me say that. I don't call black men "boy," ever. But this is not a man - he's a yassa massa puppet who really truly madly deeply worked hard to deserve it. Made me sick to my stomach and furious to hear that long bullsh*t speech justifying Breonna Taylor's murder.

[Caliman73]

27. Mexicans/Mexican Americans (Chicanos) call them "vendidos".

I was just saying to my wife, that I really hate what has been in my head the last several years. The amount of anger and hatred, and it is the fault of that idiot Trump and his minions in the Republican Party that have stoked that hatred.

[JI7]

3. He has been since the RNC. Check out what black sites are saying about him

[RockRaven]

5. The bit of the presser I saw literally laid out a roadmap for cops to murder with impunity.

All you have to do to get away with murder as a cop in KY is provoke someone to attack you, and then you can legally kill anyone with/near them, so long as you shoot so purposely. Only the asshole firing randomly is even potentially in line for a scolding or spanking.

Based on the rationale for non-indictment this asswipe described in his press conference, Ms. Taylor's death could have been replaced with the same death but of three hundred disabled toddlers and all their killings would still have been totes legit. The standard described is madness.

[kimbutgar]

6. I heard him today and he was really pushing a bs narrative.

It made no sense and it went nowhere. The guy was a really dancing around coming
down hard in cops. Lot of side stepping on the obvious. Yep he is a house ....in the repuke party.

[NewDayOranges]

7. AG Cameron is definitely a Bojangler...

Bojangler, a term coined by Dr Jason Johnson to describe a POC who is a virulent Trump supporter...

[radius777]

9. He's what Malcom X termed the 'House Negro'

"He loved his master more than the master loved himself... he never wanted his master's property threatened.. he was more defensive of it than the master was."

Ps. Your use of the term 'massas' is right on.

[budkin]

10. Another token Uncle Tom for the GOP

It really makes me sad.

[Zeitghost]

12. It is not okay...

To use some of the terms being thrown about in this thread.

[brush]

14. What's not ok is for a black person to allow himself to be used by the white power structure...

to announce that their sanctioning of police murder by white cops is ok, that Breonna Taylor's life didn't matter.

Wake up. Black lives matter, and we African American's deeply resent black people who are a party to the wiping out of a black life like it never existed, that there are no charges to be brought against her murderers.

See post 9.

[BainsBane]

17. Racial injustice doesn't exist because of

a Black Republican. White people are to blame.

[brush]

20. So is he. He allows himself to be used.

She was murdered and there are no charges against the murderers. He is a part of it. He's the AG. He used the grand jury to get the outcome the white power structure wanted when he well knows he could've brought charges himself without going through a grand jury.

We've seen this trick too many time before.

[Caliman73]

28. While that may be true generally...

It sound almost as if you are saying that Black people have little to no agency. No one is saying that racial injustice exists because there is a Black Republicans.

A Black person is saying that the idea that another Black person is allowing themselves to be used as an instrument of White racial injustice is infuriating.

There were Jews who assisted the Nazis during the Holocaust. You don't think that Jewish people hold those Jews in special contempt?

Sure, you can say that it is difficult and it is tempting to align yourself with the dominant culture. It is easier to side with power. But, you better damn well hope that the group you are backing stays in power because there are going to be a lot of people who look like you, who as Malcolm X said, "have felt the sting of the lash" who are not going to be too forgiving.

[BainsBane]

30. I am NOT saying black people have no agency

and I didn't know the OP was black until they responded to one of my posts and said so. This is the internet after all. Nor am I making excuses for the KY AG. What bothers me is when white people, all too often, blame African Americans rather than looking at themselves. I won't be going around calling Black people uncle Toms or House "n....s" because I'm not African American and feel I have no right to do so. I'll leave the calling out to Black folks.

[BainsBane]

18. +1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

[BainsBane]

16. Why focus on one Black Republican?

To the exclusion of all the white ones? That "massa" language is not okay.

[brush]

21. I'm African American and I know uncle toms when I see them. I blame him as much...

as I do the white power structure. He could've and should've bought charges himself without going through the grand jury system. We've seen that trick too many times before.

[BainsBane]

23. Do you realize

that your post has empowered white people to use offensive language? Do you really think that's okay? What about when white people, and white men in particular, who blame African Americans for turnout in 2016 rather than acknowledging that it's white people who keep Republicans in power?

The Kentucky governor is an asshole, and Black Republicans are rare. But he isn't the cause or reason why white supremacy is perpetrated. Why shouldn't the lesson be for white people to examine their own privilege and fragility in order to be allies in anti-racism? Isn't that more important to the system of racial injustice?

[brush]

24. I call out uncle toms when they allow murdering cops to...

go unpunished. You do what you want to do and so will I, but you're here complaining about me instead of the fact that no charges were brought against the killers of Breonna Taylor. You do know that the AG could've brought charges himself instead of using that grand jury route to get the cops off, right?

Learn to be an anti-racist.

[BainsBane]

29. Yes, of course

It's horrific, no question. It shows the utter denial of humanity for Taylor and too many other African Americans, like George Floyd and Philando Castille in my own city. Frankly, it was your language and that of others in this thread that distracted me, and not being able to see you, I thought you were white. Obviously you have a right to call out African Americans like the Kentucky AG. What disturbs me is how eagerly some white people turn to blaming African Americans, and with problematic language. It seems to me there is a difference between Black people using certain language and calling out other African Americans and white people doing the same thing.

I have a long way to go to become anti-racist. I try, but I know my efforts aren't enough. Your corrective to focus on Breonna Taylor is an important one. I will try to focus on how whiteness, including my own, makes racial injustice possible and trying to listen and learn, including from you. I'll leave the judgments of African Americans to you.

[RhodeIslandOne]

32. He's not the governor

He’s the attorney general. The governor has called him out on the bullshit.

[BainsBane]

33. glad to hear that

about the Gov.

[Aepps22]

34. I Blame Him More

As an African American I blame him more. He is no different than Silk or Diamond. He thinks that his "conservative" views makes him superior to the rest of us. He is a tap dancing fool.

[Wabbajack_]

25. There no need to bring his race into it

Black people have the right to be Republican assholes too

[brush]

26. And black people like me can call them out for it.

[Solomon]

35. Agreed. We always call out Uncle Tom's. That asshole really infuriated me.

[JI7]

31. Nobody said he doesn't but he knows he is allowing himself to be used by white racists

just like that idiot Nikki Haley and many other non white Republicans. And we can call out the bs.

They CAN be a republican and not behave this way as we see with Michael Steele and Ana Navarro .

[Manifestor_of_Light]

36. He got married recently with Moscow Mitch in attendance.

However, he refused to release any information about his bride. I read that his bride is Mitch McConnell's granddaughter, in another place.
