Yay!!!
I'll chill while you all bash this black lady again. Out of the millions of conservative christians, lets single her out and bash her on another thread. No, it doesn't look strange when a bunch the 'majority' sit around bashing one black woman on thread after thread, singling her out. Nope. I mean, if there was anything strange about it, how come we have sooo many black people posting on DU everyday? Not weird at all.
