    You can't have an honest conversation with the media and liberals.  Again today, the president denounced white supremacists,  but acknowledged the left has bad people too.

    Once again the media is fanning the flames of racism.  They are so over dramatic.   When you play identity politics with an overwhelming majority of white people in our country... It's a dangerous game.

    Trump speaks the truth.!!!
    But the lying scum liberal media can't handle the truth. The truth doesn't fit their narrative.
    This is why they hate Trump. He doesn't bend to their narrative. This is why he is so reviled by the establishment. 
    KEEP SHINING THE LIGHT MR PRESIDENT.

    President Clueless is ignorant to make a comparison of these men. Suggesting that monuments of Washington & Jefferson may be next is crazy.

    DjBrow  I understand you will look at them with pride for what your ilk did. 

              I can only hope you are not referring that Trump supporters are compatible with that disgusting twisted time in history ?

    It was your bath towel in front of your mirror.

    Liberals and the alt-left showed up looking for violence. It's OK for the media to admit it. That doesn't mean you agree with the neo nazis's message or views.  

    But the media won't admit it... because everything is politics with them...not truth.

    Dough, it's the same with the media geared towards with the alt-right. All media is full of sh!t. They have a vested interest in us hating each other. The same reason they get the left all riled up is the same reason the don't report things from the point of view of the right. It makes everyone hate everyone.

    Nobody is approving of white supremacists.  But it was completely obvious that the violence was on both sides.

    It's always on both sides. We need to stop pointing fingers in this country and work towards unity.

    That's you, good buddy! Like I've pounded into your head many times before, you've got this "Po' black folk, can't get ahead in America on their own, cops are unfairly 'out to get them', they must need my white apologetic help" mentality - - which I (if I was a black person in America, which I'm not, and I'm not claiming to be, much like yourself) would find COMPLETELY INSULTING!

    Scal, I've got a hypothetical for you. 

    Let's say you witness a horrible car accident. The only people around are you, and the 2 cars involved in the crash. The first guy seems to be O.K., but somewhat injured enough to where he needs medical attention at some point. The second guy is unconscious, trapped in his car, and it's on fire. 

    But..... You notice.....

    The guy's wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat.....

    Do you help the guy? 

    My guess is you don't, and THAT, my friend, is why you're a racist and I'm not.....




    So first it was I was racist against whites.

    Then they found out I was white and therefore couldn't think I'm inferior....to myself. (Although many here still say that!).

    Now the twist is you're a racist if you point out inequality because then it is about "Po Black Folk" (a racist way of putting it by the way) being HELPED By whites (ironically according to to Stump, I'm helping no one! LOL)

    The guys with the torches beating blacks with sticks over the weekend, not racist.

    Scalabrine? Pointing out inequality? Racist!

    This is why this country is and always will be in the shi**er when t comes to race.

    Truly embarrassing!

    More emojis from LRM to Stump LOL. Amazing.

    LRM JUST said he's proud of Trump for doubling down on both sides, taking the onus of the white supremacists.

    Couple posts later he's praising Stump for his stance.

    Oh and I'm racist.


    Quite possibly the most embarrassing day Covers has ever experienced.

    Exactly. 

    I mean, when those uppity blacks rose up against the lynchings in the South, it was on both sides. 

    When the J-E-W-S had the audacity to stand up to the Nazis, it was on both sides. 

    Your naivety as to modern history is evidenced by your statement.

    Scal, i'd call you a lot of things but i'd never call you a racist. They think you're racist against your own race. I don't believe that. I just believe you're very passionate in your stance against oppression. And that's fine. You often annoy the h3ll out of me. You sometimes make arguments in the name of black people that are just plain wrong, and easily disproven. And as I often say, I get fed up with your "Mr. Drummond" act. I don't, contrary to popular belief, hate you. And the thing I actually dislike about you is your megalomania but all and all, you seam like a good person. You can't speak for all black people, and you'll never understand being black, but it's your right to fight racism and prejudice however you see fit. Don't get me wrong, having a 10 year argument on covers.com doesn't make you Nat Turner. If anything it makes you crazy but to each their own. Me being so critical of you has led you to believe i'm of the thinking that white people can't speak up for black people. And that's just not true. Black people wouldn't be where we are today, and we won't get to where we need to be tomorrow, without the contributions of all races. The world needs white people like you. Just the same, it needs black people like me who can see the point of view of so called "bigots".

    Again, I argue in satire now (i.e., "Hey Black America, What do you have to lose!"). Those threads are more about mocking Trump than trying to balance the racial scales, per se. 

    So the fact you see them as easily disproven is irrelevant. Because I'm not trying to make an argument for blacks in them. I'm far more showing what a POS 90% of this forum voted in office.

    The world needs white people like you.

    WONDERFUL. We FINALLY agree on something.  Now here's an emoji you fully deserve and one I will not disparage!

    I can guarantee we're going to continue to disagree on things but ultimately we want the same things and that is often lost in all of this. We're not enemies, bro.

    Trump: "There are two sides to every story."

    I'm sure Hitler would feel the same way. LOL

    Trump: "Both sides were attacking each other."

    So were the Nazis and the Americans during WWII. LOL

    This guy is a bigger moron than I ever thought he could be.

    Yes it was. Trump was not incorrect in his statement when viewed in isolation.

    But here's the thing. His comments cannot be viewed in isolation but must be in the context of this entire situation and everything else he has said on this subject.

    He focussed unduly on the violent response which, although serious, is NOT as serious long term as a group march happening in middle America.

     It was also clear that his level of anger was greater at this 'lesser' issue than it was at the group issue, about which he read a passionless scripted statement 

    Now, Antifa did themselves no end of damage with their violence because they lowered themselves to allow reasonable comparisons to be drawn between the two sides and to deflect from the main issue. Not the only issue but the main issue

    You LRM and others on here state views which are right wing but which I imagine you would deem peaceful. Fair enough

    Those marching were unquestionably affiliating themselves with the group and Nazis. They bore Swastikas. That is an affiliation with violence and murder

    Anyone who defends them or deflects to the secondary issue is defending their beliefs

    And notice, none of the above has anything to do with the press

    Doubling down on stupidity is always a good strategy.  It's like Trump got a 12 and decided to double it against a 10.  I say that because why even bother delivering his statement the other day specifically naming the organizations and then go off on a tangent yesterday?  It just makes him look more insincere but it doesn't matter.  Most Americans don't support overt racism these days so these white nationalists aren't going to take America back over and oppress others.  Someone should tell them most person are educated and have money so they're going nowhere.
