The problem is Harris got 20 million fewer votes than Biden. The Black men who voted, voted for Harris. But not enough.

Blame white people and latino men for this shitshow.

Thank goodness for the sanity of African Americans. It is one of the few things American democracy can rely on..

There is no such thing.
Time to push back at the fundamentalists - tell them what you really think.
Stop being polite.

15. Leviticus.

Leviticus 19:28, "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the Lord.”

They are saying, "You are defacing God's image. You are the temple of God."

That's an old one that still pops up from time to time among the overly religious among us.

There are several laws that have that intention. The writers of the Torah were very clever social engineers.
Same with human sacrifice.... like in the story of the binding of Isaac.....

There are many more out there. Someone sets such a thing up and posts it. Doesn't make it true or a real incident.

It's pretty flimsy. My wild guess is the pic taker posted the signs, took the pic, started the shit.

Edit to add that link is a repost of a repost of a repost.

To all my fellow European-resembling Americans: LOOK DOWN AT YOUR ARMS! YOU ARE NOT WHITE! Nobody is really white! My Native American ancestry was so long ago that it is invisible; I look like a Danish immigrant. But I AM NOT WHITE! NOBODY IS! My skin is a mottled beige color, and so is yours! I AM A COLORED PERSON, AND SO ARE YOU! If I were there, I would drink only from the "Colored Only" fountains! Everybody should do that! Show how ridiculous this ancient FANTASY is!

You had to apologized to them that your wife is not 'white'.

JD did not stand up for his wife.
