    Winning the popular vote and losing elections is like having more yards from scrimmage but losing the game. 

    Nobody cares.

    Doesn't cost a penny to read the article, at least on my browser. 

    Perhaps it just says something you don't want to hear.

    Scalabrine Tails Of The Tape:

    He has probably never played a meaningful football game in his life. Do you take his advice even though he has never played? He doesn't know the rules like you do -- he hasn’t lived it.

    Ok…

    Then he grows up and becomes the do-gooding white liberal with the: "so, you're saying, unless I'm black, I can't talk about racism? That's racist!" The pathetic thing is white liberals do this shiit all the time. They speak on behalf of African Americans as if they know what it’s like to walk in a black man’s shoes.

    Delusion sets in…

    Yes, he portrays himself to be blacker than a black man. Instead of taking or giving advice he still can not comprehend the fact that, you can’t accurately speak about something that you have never lived, breathed or experienced. And most of all, you can't expect anyone with a half of brain cells to listen.

    Conclusion….

    Liberalism is a mental disorder. Unbelievable this douche bag has a forum to rant.

    I said, I, as a white person, was blacker than you.

    That was backwards.

    What I should of said was you were whiter than me!

    Because for what you type, you are hereby and henceforth known to me as,

    WHITE BOY.

    And the more you type the further to the right you move. Before your time here is done, you may have a figurative Swastika armband and a shaved head.

    Your thread title is EXACTLY what the WORST bigots here type. You don't even know how you sound.

    It is profoundly sad that as a man of black skin hue you choose to make company with these people and say the things you do.

    It is a profound disgrace to your race, regardless of the racism you are subject to.

    Have a good one. Better yet, continue on disgracing your race. Disgusting. 

    A white man is a better representation of your race than a black one.

    Disgusting.

    To liberals everyone is a bigot, racist, nazi, alt right, sexist, homophobe, transphobe ... thats their go to line its hilarious at this point and no one takes people like you seriously.

    Your thread title is EXACTLY what the WORST bigots here type. You don't even know how you sound.

    It is profoundly sad that as a man of black skin hue you choose to make company with these people and say the things you do.

    It is a profound disgrace to your race, regardless of the racism you are subject to.

    Have a good one. Better yet, continue on disgracing your race. Disgusting. 

    A white man is a better representation of your race than a black one.

    Disgusting.

    To liberals everyone is a bigot, racist, nazi, alt right, sexist, homophobe, transphobe ... thats their go to line its hilarious at this point and no one takes people like you seriously.

    Black Lives Matter.....When they're killed by white cops because the rest of the time the folks in that group don't give a fu%k about black people and only use this group to get police to disarm

    That should be their name

    Blame the media.  They only report what will give them the highest ratings.  They never tell the whole story.  It is sad when a white person gets killed and or is a police officer by a non white it does not receive much air time and is not considered racist but other way around it is.  Innocent people are shot, killed and put in jail regardless of skin color however it is less than 2%.  Police 98% in a liberal society, not bad.  BTW most victims had rap sheets pages long....I know it does not make it right.  BLM never acknowledges it.   Blame the police right away... Yet when in trouble call them to help save you....
