85. My outrage isn't even close to selective.

Thanks for asking. I notice once again you simply deflect. Why is that a constant theme with you? How do you feel about the contents of the op and questioning if a majority of AA voters suffer from Stockholm Syndrome because the support a democrat in the primaries?

"I notice you lack offense when a Clinton supporter declares that clinton owns LGBT and black people"

I find that to be disturbing and don't support it. Can you point me to the post? I will say so.

How come I can do that but all you do is deflect. I take issue with any supporter of any candidate who claims ownership of any group. With history, it would be even more offensive if referenced toward AA.

So, you condemn the blatant racism I have discussed here and I will do so where you have stated. Simply stop your deflection and do what is right. I have called out Hillary supporters numerous times for poor behavior. Your projection and deflection here is weak.
