    I really shouldn't get deep into this thread since it's about US politics, but you asked a question

    No, I'm saying that I don't know **** about NAACP or KKK or hypothetical pro-white NAACP I used in the place of KKK for the sake of an argument because I'm not involved in either of the groups or don't even live at the US.

    Just pointed out a double standard wrt to your SCOTUS appointment, that's all.

        "I'm completely ignorant, but I'm going to make a point on the subject and insist it's valid anyway." Nice.

        White "advocacy" groups are generally violent because there's not much for them to advocate for. We already have all the civil rights--have for centuries. We get fair hearings in court, we don't get pulled over especially often, and rarely do TV shows or movies make genuinely racist remarks or caricatures about us. Mostly it's just "gee those honkies can't dance very well, hurr hurr hurr." So the KKK et al are mostly concerned not with looking after white interests but with stomping on non-white interests. Also opposing miscegenation and trying to get racist propaganda in schools.

        Now, there are occasional affirmative action injustices, but those are generally not systemic. It'd be nice if there were a group formed to oppose solely that nonsense, but I can't think of one.

          I suggest you get out more

          In any case, no Mr. Fun, nothing you quoted Sessions saying is in the slightest bit racist.

            Yeah, like the happy, fluffy Black Panthers.

              You're not making any sense here.

              Sotomayor is a gay black man?

                Why did some observers believe then that for Sessions calling on Sotomayor's so-called racial bias may have been inappropriate?

                In any event, I get the feeling that you would not recognize racism even if it pissed in your cereal.

                  Because the are retarded. Apprently them, like you, have failed to back up there accusations with anything actually resembling racisim. Soto's comments were blatantly racist Mr. Fun, she specifically invoked races by name.

                  Out of curiousity, how exactly do you make the conection between accusing the ACLU and NAACP of communist influences with racism?

                    The Black Panthers were called communists to further demonize them. Didn't help that they had a lot of communist ideas.

                      And as far as the true accusation of communists influence goes, it was an entirely appropriate demonization. It is only racist if you think the poeple making those accusations were not equally ciritcal of other communist organizations.

                      Even if the people making that accusation were obvious racists based on other factors, them calling a communist organization communist is still not in and of itself racism.

                            All the better to use it to disparage groups he doesn't like for any reason. It's not like this is an unusual Republican tactic.

                              That is irrelevant as to proving Mr. Fun's accusations of racism. They don't exist, this thread is a very bad troll.

                                It is not irrelevant. It goes to character.
