They would rather attack DUers than folks who beat up mixed race couples [View all]

Interesting overview of this morning at DU.

The thread about the black man punching his girlfriend - earlier this week . . . remember that?

Well a mixed race couple got attacked by three white men in Bellingham WA.

The woman in the mix - is punched in the face (it's awful) by one of the bigots who didn't take kindly to that.

The police were hesistant to call it a hate crime because throwing out racial epithets while punching a woman in the face ya know . . . that's not indicative of a hate crime. :eyeroll:

Instead of the usual suspects (folks for example that follow around sheshe, bravenak, maggied, etc. etc. ) responding to the post by a fairly new member of DU in GD - they decided to come after me.

They can't resist TRYING to put us in our place.

When we RESIST - they accuse us of anger.

When we turn it back on them - then start laughing -

Another one will come in with a snotty eye roll.


Instead of focusing on the subject of the OP - and understanding the contrast to the thread earlier this week - and the very racist dog whistles all over it -

"You are angry'
:eyeroll:



It's so typical of America.

THIS is America . . . and then they wonder why affluent, rich, and wealthy black Americans -

We can't relate to them at all.
