Trump attacks universities for antisemitism while silent as blacks at universities and elsewhereare attacked


I don’t have time to do a lot of research, but I recall fairly recent stories about deadly attacks on black men. Two black brothers traveling on their way to the airport instead, ended up found dead in nearby mountains.

A black Illinois college student disappeared in a sundown town area near the university.

A young black teen boy was with a group of whites when they tried to feed him into a wheat grinder.

There have been multiple lynchings … and in each case they’re either poorly investigated and even deemed suicides.

We have a lot of problems going on in this country and all kinds of groups are being attacked and vying for attention. But are other groups being killed like blacks?

No.

It’s not safe for blacks in America.

It is beyond disturbing.

It’s sanctioned.

Civil rights attorney Ben Crump announced he has been retained by the parents of 21-year-old Demartravion Reed, who was found hanging from a tree at Delta State University in Mississippi.

“We cannot accept vague conclusions when so many questions remain,” Crump said in a statement. "And I will undertake an independent investigation into the death"

Some of them would be the type who would actually commit murder - the ultimate suppresive act.

Heis such a hideous man for so many reasons, this being one of the worst imho.

Trump "emboldened" the Nazis

America fought a war against the Nazis and supposedly won.

Yet here they are marching to "take back America".

When did the Nazis have America?

" Michael Von Kotch, a Pennsylvania resident who called himself a Nazi, said the rally made him "proud to be white."

He said that he's long held white supremacist views and that Trump's election has "emboldened" him and the members of his own Nazi group. "
