Well isn't that what many Christians say on this very board? "If you don't believe what we do you're going to hell".
I don't see you taking them to task for it. I don't believe many have said or say that. The implication was 'you voted for trump, you're going to hell.'

Well there are a lot of adjectives I could use to go with voting for Trump but claiming that just because someone is gullible or misled I don't think qualifies you to go to hell.

Just curious, if the government adopts some form of reparations for black Americans, will that help to end the grievances the black community has with the federal government...
I understand it can't undo the past, or make things right.....but will it make things better?

So I'm curious, who pays for it?
Do those who fought and had family members die to fight for the ending of slavery also have to pay? I mean did they not already pay the ultimate price to help end slavery? How about those who never had a family history of owning slaves? What about the poor and their descendants who had no part of slavery?
I think there are far more questions surrounding this than answers.

Mark 10:25
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. If God and Heaven was/is a real thing: There will be a whole lot of liberal conversions at the pearly gates if politics plays a role in getting into heaven! lmao "But God, almost everyone in the trailer park voted for Trump!" If political affiliation has anything to do with getting into heaven, we are all going to hell. Even the "independents"...

No matter how you feel about it, you have to admit; its a brilliant political move....
It pretty much locks up many Black voters, and probably wins over many other minority groups as well....

If someone can prove their ancestors owned slaves when the Republicans freed them, shouldn't they receive compensation for the money they invested and lost due to government action?
With interest over the 150 years, that could be a shiny dime.

It's already been proven that many that surround Trump lied about their Russian connections and meetings with Russians. Wake the hell up.

Did they hack any machines? All they did was place ads on the internet. Most of those ads were against Trump, as the knew Hitlery was already in their pocket. They'd bought her and her husband months before with the uranium one deal. The libs lie about Trump daily. Everything from the Smolette attack being somehow his fault, to him separating children from families, as if he created that policy. Both obummer and W did the exact same thing. Maybe you should take your own advice and wake the hell up. At the very least, open your eyes and ears and find more sources for news.

I'm sure you're open to all kinds of news sources. I can tell by your posts.  No, the Russians interfered and what I'm sure your news outlets haven't told you as that the Trump administration has actually cut funding to the departments assigned to prevent such meddling in the 2020 election. Trump openly asked the Russians to hack and find e-mails from Hillary. Sure, sure, Hillary was in their pocket. That's why they worked so hard to elect Trump. You know, Putibn's big buddy. The one he listens to about N. Korea's nuclear capability over our own countries intel. That Trump? They wanted a moron so they did their best to help elect one.

See here's the thing, I've been around since 1982, and I've seen some things. So I don't believe it, I don't think any black people in America have any lack of opportunities, in fact, all these years, there seems to be pretty much a lot of opportunities.
So I'm looking, for all the wonderous accomplishments,
actually no. No I don't need to know what anybody else does with their time, but I'm pretty sure of one thing, you've got the best opportunity in just about anywhere in the world just being an American.
So why would anybody be going around asking for something for nothing?
I blame the schools, and liberals teachings.
Here's a thought. Go out and get rich slowly, if you want to be rich.
It's called freedom.
Which the liberals are trying to take away every day, every step of the way, which is why I'm against them. tell you what you can eat tell you what you can drink tell you where you can go tell you how many kids you can have tell you to hop on a train and go to a camp, it all ends up in the end with a holocaust, they take God out of everything and put the devil in.
Which is what the liberals are trying to do, which is why I'm against them. If I'm wrong, convince me otherwise. Why should I ask for facts, policies, beliefs, or truths, when it is so much easier for others just to claim racism and ask for something for nothing.
If this country wants to make a false idol out of being against racism, or being against discrimination, or a false idol of supporting troops, or a false idol of cancer cause support, I won't bow to any of them. There is only one God, and one mediator between God and man, the Lord Jesus Christ.
This poster will not bow down to the false idol of anti-discrimination. Praise God.

So, I saw something a few times a couple weeks ago Clem, and when I saw it, I honestly didn't know how to react or what to think. I hadn't brought it up before because I didn't know how. I think I'll just throw it out there and see what happens.
I'm sitting at a stop light and I see a city bus drive by. On the electronic board that usually displays the route and next stop it simply said
"For Rosa Parks".
That's it. No scrolling sentence. No added context.
I saw that and was like, what the hell is that supposed to mean?
Like, what was the promo? If you're a person of color you get choice seating for the month? It just seemed like such an awkward thing to do for a bussingsystem. Was it supposed to be like a sports franchise that uses Native American imagery and say "No, we're not culturally appropriating anyone, we're celebrating our fantastic relationship with our local Tribes!".
I don't know man. It's easily one of the oddest things I've ever seen.

You mean like Asian students having to give up opportunities for their future that they've worked hard for when they are denied entry in to University in favor of an applicant who didn't perform as well but benefits from the color of their skin?
