Let American be "Fair And Balanced" So, MLK, you must be next?

[daneblazer]

According to a poll I saw, people are against this statue garbage by something like a 62-27 margin. Instead of people bitching and complaining about what happened 150 years ago, maybe they should put their energies into attempting to stop slavery that is happening right now around the world. Yelling, screaming, and destroying property is the lazy way of handling things. You want to do something positive? You want love to trump hate? Show some true love, put your shoulder to the wheel, and do something positive by volunteering to helping these poor souls that are still alive, but suffering the same fate of people we can no longer help.

Most people don't give a fukk about the statutes. Republicans, democrats, independents, blacks, whites. Most of the vocal that do want them down just want to piss off the people who want the monuments up

That 27% is a lot more loud

Considering Robert E Lee was a traitor to the USA and MLK preached peace and unity your position is as ignorant as all of your other posts dumb old Abe.

Maybe focus on being less of a loser in life old man instead of big issues. Your dumb broke ass can't even afford to buy a 99 cent burger or pay a lousy $40 cc bill.

Just like your parents and grandparents before you, you have done nothing of value with your life. Please do us taxpayers a favor and kill yourself so we don't get stuck covering your Medicaid bills down the road. No sense in throwing good money away on a turd such as yourself that can be flushed and forgotten about immediately afterwards.

Another typical person of color so biased to the bone...well, I think as much as I have already stated why these type of grumbling groups do not want to use their energy to debate a controversy, they take the most ignorant way out; hate without any evidence to empower the ugliness they spew.
Grits go back to school and study both sides of southern history and you just may find out that your great-great grandparents loved the live of having shelter and food on the table routinely, and even see evidence of a lot of respect shown from their "employers." ,

Grits, without further educating yourself and being open-minded [and you do not do that!] , I whup your black ass easy-pleasey.

To grits and *hits

Furthermore, when it comes right down to living an evil life, let's choose which famous American may go to hell or already is residing there?
REL or MLK?
Robert E. lee was a superior leader at war time between the states. He fought for his southern states. That's not a traitor silly boy.
MLk was a famous inspiring leader for all people, yet, he betrayed the holy religion he followed and preached his entire life. Yes, a superior leader but is he in hell now for indulging in blasphemous behavior as if it was his god given right?

Now, let's guess between the two, which hero was more likely to have had his ass burned by fire , given by that old rascal, the Devil?

[No coincidences]

This place has really went downhill

Actually, it's a perfect place for angry, disenfranchised losers to feel good about themselves and commiserate.

If not the Internet - especially a gambling forum/community - where else?

[ABEHONEST]

Another killing day by anti-Trumps?

Yes, no coincidence, my money says. This is the lying backlash created by leftist punks and rioter's from the Charlottesville disaster.
Give a thug a hint of "it's okay to hate cops because, they, as a whole, represent the white establishment."
It's sick and where are responsible leftist leaders?
Any young healthy male wanting to be a policeman? I didn't think so.

[ABEHONEST]

I would like an opinion on yesterday's cop shootings from an outspoken [leader?] black member, Mr. Grits?

[beach nut]

If you are pro-confederacy or pro-nazi, you are ignorant. Your "heroes" are losers who don't deserve to be honored or remembered.

Robert E. Lee himself was against civil war monuments of any kind because they might "keep open the sores of war". Google "Robert E Lee on monuments".

End of discussion.

Gettysburg has had no groups or otherwise say anything about statue removal. Good.

Abe the only thing you are whipping is the water and powdered potatoes meal in a box you eat for dinner. A broke old piece of shit like yourself will die alone and be forgotten like a used paper towel.

Look forward to the day you die so we can go piss on your grave. I Wonder if Target will put a lien on your ss check?

Too bad you weren't caught in crossfire. That would be cause for celebration.

Seems most of these cop killings have a common theme....the shooters all served in the US military and had mental health issues but good old piece of shit honest Abe wants to make everything about race.

The killings are awful and uncalled for unless cops instigated the shootings.

I will bet my retirement check that Grits is rarely called out for his awful deep-seeded bigoted mind?
Yeah, all the black/cop killing if the last two years were instigated by obsessive and violent and aggressive military vets.

Old stinky minded Grits has learned from a wee youngster that "whitey" is the enemy.
Old thug-minded racists like Grits never change. He will probably die from a policemen's well aimed bullet while protesting alongside those ignorant dumb-ass hate groupies called; "Black Lives Matter."


Back to school you under-educated tool. Take a psychology class teaching misguided anger management.
And another on bio's of southern gentlemen/heroes.
Love your weak ass attempt at a debate.

[khicks26]

Ya, that is all well and good but tell me where it ends then? Because since we are talking about slavery how about we also mention that slavery has been going on since humans walked the earth. I don't really know a race or religion who's people haven't seen a time when they were either enslaved or straight up murdered. So by your thinking we better just erase history all together because we don't really have a time, in all of human history, when there wasn't the same thing going on. Right? That is why this is hypocritical on the highest level. Not because anyone is proud of what happened but because if you are going to take one down, you might has well just throw all the history books in the fire because it filled with the same thing over and over again. But the leaders of this movement just want to make themselves feel important instead of looking at the bigger picture and realizing, in a history point of view, its completely ridiculous.

By the way this quote about says it all.

Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
-George Santayana

George Orwell — ‘Those who control the present, control the past and those who control the past control the future.’

If you think this is just about statues, your not paying attention.

No body stopping you from putting one in your front yard.

Wow. Nobody has criticized blacks more than I have, but you are fukkkinng insane. MLK was a TRUE hero and created social change while never being part of the ruling class. He did it peacefully even when being attacked with violence daily. He was subject to violence from bullets, rocks, bats, bricks, fire hoses, police dogs ...
People like him and Rosa Parks are real heroes, not the lazy scumbags who claim to be fighting in MLK's memory. He is rolling over in his grave watching what the black race has done since he gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Let's look at his flaws. He plagiarized material while obtaining his doctorate. I would bet at least 70% of all people with doctorates plagiarized some material. Is it great??? No. Does it somehow diminish what he accomplished?? Of course not. Same thing with adultery. I would say at least 60% of all married men have cheated. Probably 95% of all powerful men have cheated as well. His behavior was normal even though some things were not stellar. If those are the worst you can say about him that proves my point.

I honestly don't know a lot about Lee. I am willing to give him a pass on thinking it is ok to own human beings because everyone in that era was raised that way. But when the country realizes how wrong it is and you not only cling to the idea but lead the fight to keep owning people, you are a piece of scum. Everybody who knew it was wrong to own slaves and was to scared to speak out against it had a free chance to join the freedom movement without repercussions. Those that chose to go to war thought it was ok to own human beings.

WTF is wrong with you???

You probably a mixed race, certainly do not have the mind of a man living in reality?
You make stupid comparisons by twisting what I said about MLK. Dummy.
I praised the man and have in the past but your higher moral ass than mine seems to think adultery is a given thing if you're man? I don't and that's what separates man from the animal class.

You probably forgave JFK too, for his outrageous immoral behavior, too?
So maybe you're not religious? So what, those 10 commandments were solid ideas for man to live by and at least make a effort to respect them.
Sorry to hurt your bitty feelings but MLK does not get a free pass. He preached religion and lived a lie at the same time. I really felt for his wife who really seemed well educated and classy. What a fkg shame.

Go away unless you can decipher someone's post more accurately and honestly, Grit's Jr.?
Trying to judge me was a foolish idea and you failed 100%. You sound like Grit's material?

I am as white as it gets. I have a huge problem with the black race.
You are comparing adultery to owning human beings. Whether it is right or not people have been cheating since day 1 and will till doomsday. It is not abnormal behavior at all. 2 consenting adults can have sex if they want. Hardly a big deal.
The 10 commandments??? LOL. So you have never lied?? Stolen??? Seems like you are the true hypocrite. Imagine a religious person being a hypocrite. What a schocker. We all you know you stole merchandise from Target. That's what you call it when you get merch and never pay for it. Then you complain about late charges, lol.

Anything in the 10 commandments about owning other human beings???? How bout the bible??? Oh that's right, it was condoned in the bible. What another schocker.

The only reason I replied to a retard like you was because it is absurd to say MLK is tarnished by adultery when Lee FOUGHT for the right to own humans. MLK focused on equality. Adultery was wrong, but he wasn't known for preaching on monogamy. If he owned slaves himself then he would have been a true hypocrite.

I also want to make a clear distinction between MLK, Rosa Parks and the rest of the true heroes of the civil rights movement and the phony, fake, hateful, violent and liars that have perverted the true message and actually increase division for their personal gain.

This cad has one of those elitist minds that will not look at a spade and call it a spade, well, unless it benefits his ballooned ego. After looking at your utter nonsense about my personal life...boy, are are quite fkp up and no longer worthy of an intelligent response.
I'll allow other members to psychoanalyze you, I lost interest. Whew.

I belong to that unique group of elitists who believe that adultery is nothing compared to fighting for the right to own human beings. We are an odd bunch. I obviously can't fool a brilliant man like yourself. If you are allowed to vote I will sponsor a bill to make people pass a test to do so. The fact that you are allowed to freely live in society makes me nervous.
