and if she is, it's just a difference of opinion...what this dumb racist fuck and her fellow dumb racist fucks don't get is hate is hate... racism leaves no room for debate or opinion...it's real, it's profound, it's pervasive and it's lethal

the board member shown here has been and 70million plus Americans with her are racists and will always be with us. And for her to quote Dr Martin Luther King enraged me. I am getting fed up with these type of white racist supremacist idiot(s) who thinks they are smart.

Just listening to her tells me that unity and racial harmony WILL NEVER be achieved in America. Especially in post trump America. This type of racist will NEVER die out because her children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren, statistically, will believe as she does and on and on as they continue to be raised in a racist household. Some may begin to think for themselves but too many won't and the will end up voting for a racist demagogue like trump, hitler, moosolini, putin, n. koreas Yo-Jong-un over and over again.

Since the race problem has NEVER been properly resolved since 1865, as an arbitrary starting point of our problems concerning race and genocide of non-white people in this country. I am led to believe it WILL NEVER happen outside a huge paradigm shift in the way people accept those different from them.
