5 Dallas Officers Killed at Protest Over Shootings by Police

Never looked into his politics but that all reads like the usual reactionary nonsense. Yes indeed... We are on the verge of a "race war" because of Hillary Clinton. Jesus Christ, that's idiotic in the extreme.

The line about Trump never using race in the negative baffled me. If that isn't satire, he is just completely wrong.
 
- Mexico are sending us their rapist.

- I can not be judged by that judge because he is Mexican.

- His Muslim ban was not simply based in religion. The idea was to deny people fro the Middle East.

- Trump is a birther. So because President Obama isn't white, he questioned his country of origin.

............... but aside from that, what has he said that's remotely racist, Darth? :dry:

Because no one knows WWMLKD more than Bill f***ing O'Reilly.
 
This whole thing has just brought out the worst in people. More than usual.

I wonder who O'Reilly would've sided with back in the 60's? The anti-war socialist who rallied against institutional white supremacy or J Edgar Hoover and the southern conservatives?

This is really a tough one. :whatever:
 
To those on Fox News today, MLK would have been a threat. He would have been starting stuff and getting people hurt. He would have been a danger to America.

I hate always playing devils advocate for Trump but none of those thinga are racist.

Saying Mexico is sending their rapists and murderers isnt racist. He is simply saying that Mexico is sending their bad seeds. The deal with the judge seems bad but he didnt say he shouldnt judge him because he was hispanic but because he had Mexican heritage and was bias against Trump because of Trump's stances on Mexico and illegal immigration. Not smart by Trump but also not racist. The Muslim ban isnt racist because many different races are Muslim. The idea was to ban people from hostile states to avoid the issues facing Europe. Again, incredibly stupid and short sighted but not racist. As for the birther issue, again, not racist. Saying Trump questioned Obama's country of origin because he isnt white is conjecture on your part. There is more proof that his father's religion is more at play tha. Obama's race. Trump has said some incredibly outragous things but in todays climate, I find it apt to call it what it is and what he said about Mexicans and Muslims was not racist.
 
Racist can't wait to deflect on these issues.

That's the name of the game.

"What racism?"

"Well, look at these cherry picked statistics, if racism existed it would be justified"

"Hey, you pointing out there's racism exist is racist and race baiting."

Even if Trump isn't dumb enough to outright say that Mexicans are bad people or that America was better off before the Civil Rights movement or that Arabs should be registered or banned from the USA, you have to admit he uses a boatload of racist dog whistles that appeal to far right hate groups everywhere.

What he said was racist. One, Mexico aren't sending anyone here. People are escaping to the US. Second, the vast majority are not rapist and murderers. He is labeling a group of people based on where they are from and the color of their skin. He assume some are good people. The vast majority do not commit crimes. This is fear mongering based on race.

It is textbook racism to say someone cannot do their job based on their race. That is what he did. To imply he didn't is not only wrong, it also places Trump is a very odd situation of saying only someone who is white, male, rich and straight can judge him, because he has dumped on everyone else. Even his own Republicans said it was racist.

More then once has Trump and his people have said only certain Muslims, then all Muslims, them Muslims from certain countries. While doing that not realizing that a Muslim from Belgium or France would qualify, because you know, he wouldn't consider someone white Muslim.

How many times has the origin of a President been questioned? How many times has Trump implied that Obama is a secret Muslim, potentially knowing that these attacks are coming? You think he'd think a President was from Kenya if he wasn't part black?

And Malcolm X would've sent them into crisis mode.

MLK was against the Vietnam war before it was popular to be against it. Fox would of called him a unamerican traitor.

What I find most interesting is that by most measures not only has this administration been sending boatloads of illegals back across the border (something that I suspect isn't trumpeted by the Prez's team too loudly so as not to rile up the Hispanics in the Democratic coalition, but it's been something that has been going on throughout the Obama Presidency) but the truth is that illegal immigration is not what it was pre-9/11. The economic downturn that followed meant less opportunity for illegals in the States so the incentive to take the risks and expense of border crossing for a lot of illegals wasn't there as much as it was before. So this issue that Trump is using to rile people up... Not the "Barbarians at the gates" level crisis right now he's making it out to be. Not to mention that the business community has been a HUGE reason for illegal immigration into this country for decades since they want cheap labor they can pay like crap and treat like crap. Yet I haven't heard much of Donald telling it like it is on that. Funny.
 
What he said was racist.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

One, Mexico aren't sending anyone here. People are escaping to the US.

I'm not saying what he said was true or not. I have no idea. All I'm saying is that it wasn't racist.

Second, the vast majority are not rapist and murderers.

Right. No one said otherwise.

He is labeling a group of people based on where they are from and the color of their skin.

What did he label a group of people?

He assume some are good people. The vast majority do not commit crimes. This is fear mongering based on race.

I am not sure what you are saying here.

BTW, 100% of illegal immigrants commit a crime.

It is textbook racism to say someone cannot do their job based on their race.

I agree. But Trump never said that.

That is what he did. To imply he didn't is not only wrong, it also places Trump is a very odd situation of saying only someone who is white, male, rich and straight can judge him, because he has dumped on everyone else. Even his own Republicans said it was racist.

I don't think you're caught up. First of all, just because someone else calls it racist doesn't make them right. Again, he said that the judge was biased against him because of Trump's battle with Mexico. Mexico is a nation, not a race. Trump's rhetoric has put him at odds with Mexico and those loyal to Mexico. Trump saying the judge was too bias to to his job was stupid but it wasn't based on race, it was based on Mexican heritage. Again, not defending Trump here just trying to get everyone off of the "everything he says is racist" because the climate we are in doesn't need it.

More then once has Trump and his people have said only certain Muslims, then all Muslims, them Muslims from certain countries. While doing that not realizing that a Muslim from Belgium or France would qualify, because you know, he wouldn't consider someone white Muslim.

Being a Muslim does not define your race so this should be thrown out immediately. Also, the Muslims that attacked in Belgium and France were from France and Belguim. The Muslim that attacked Orlando was from the US. That's why he said at first to ban Muslims from Syria, Iraq and other known terrorist hotspots, changed it to all Muslims and then after severe pressure came back to Muslims from known terrorist hotspots. This is about National Security and has nothing to do with racism. Is it an isolationist foriegn policy? Yes. Is it smart? No. Does it unfairly target a large religious group? Yes. Is it racist? No.

How many times has the origin of a President been questioned? How many times has Trump implied that Obama is a secret Muslim, potentially knowing that these attacks are coming? You think he'd think a President was from Kenya if he wasn't part black?

Well Obama's father was Muslim and from Kenya. That's where I would start. How many American Presidents had non-Christian fathers? The answer is none. So when someone attacks someone due to their religion, why confuse and obstruct that complaint into something else to fit your narrative when there is plenty of evidence to take Trump for his word? Why make it about race when race was never brought up? Again, another silly thing for Trump to do, but I think it's just as silly to conjecture that it was all about race. Again, I am tired of everyone taking the easy way out and blaming everything on racism.

So I ask again, how was the Dilbert blogger wrong?
