(118,022 posts)pretending they belong here. It was the same when womens rights was baited. Femminism is a pretty settled issue on the left. Women should be treated as equals. Now the powers that be are under scrutiny for how they police black youth and here come the GOP race baitors to stir up anxiety, fear and hatred when the people of the DU pretty much agree that policing needs to change and a discussion needs to take place. I hope you get that yhe GOP are scared because the police are part of their coalition and a good discussion between african americans and the police and powers that be might threaten the GOP Southern Strategy. This is about power in so many ways. And today African Americans are winning (and then the police and we all win). That is what results from dialogue. I dont doubt that more dynamic policing will be the result. So, as to these posters?, they have lost and you are winning. The DU must be doing something right to have garnered such attention. Im sorry their panic has taken the shape of such vile and discusting thoughts. These trolls know exactly how dispicable they are acting. But theyve sold themselves for money and dont care who it hurts. It is the panic of morons who have no idea how to build a great country.
