As a black reader to the site I see it every time there's an incident involving black people. The usual suspects come out and do their hardest to paint black people as the racist. I been closely monitoring all the crap involving Vester Lee Flanagan. I knew from the moment I found out he was black that the racist would come out to play.
On Reverend Sharpton's facebook page, they been flooding him with the most vile and crazy messages I have ever seen in my life. On pages where the celebrity is black, the racist are posting their crap about what about this shooting or what about that shooting. You are so damn quick to paint all us black people as evil. This brother snapped. I know the killings in Charleston was what pushed him over the edge, but dang it stop painting all of us black people as hating white people.
I'll tell you what I hate. I hate coming on here every day and seeing black people silenced for speaking their mind.
I hate seeing our white allies silence for standing up for us.
I hate seeing new users come on here just looking to stir up racial crap.
I hate always being called an angry black man for no reason.
I hate how conservatives look at me and see someone who is evil and not clean.
I hate that in 2015, we all can't love each other without noticing how different our lives are.
That's what I hate.
If you want to call me a gay angry mixed race man tired of this stuff, so be it. But chill the hell out with the racist stuff. PLEASE.
