    Absolutely. Every racist in the country voted for Trump. Thing is, all being said, the segment of those people making up the Trump voter block is a tiny minority - you don't win midwest states with just militant redneck honkeys. Arkansas, yes. Every midwest state except Illinois, no. He didn't win the country by the types of people who show up at his rallies, there was a huge reluctant-voter-but-ended-up-voting-for-him-all-the-same factor in play too.

    These states went Obama last time. Either a huge chunk of blue voters just decided "**** it, I'm not voting", or the states made a good-faith change and actually saw him as the lesser of two evils. The latter is completely legitimate, even if you don't like the guy as president.

    LOL...no. I'm assuming you mean every racist that bothered to vote voted for Trump. The millions and millions of people who neglect to vote every election have racists among them.

    Not to mention there are no doubt racist democrats who didn't vote for Trump. I recall seeing videos back in '08 of self proclaimed life long democrats that swore they'd vote republican if Obama got the nomination instead of Clinton.

    You know what's crazy about that? I know white chicks that love BBC but even they were saying the same thing. I'm like WTF! If anything, Hilary is waayyyy more corrupt than Obama and you'd prefer her? It's complicated because these girls loved some black dudes but it's like Obama just completely turned them off. It was kind of deep if you really think about it.

    Some of the regions with the highest racist Google searches include:

    -Upstate New York
    -western Pennsylvania
    -eastern Ohio
    -industrial Michigan
    -rural Illinois
    -West Virginia
    -southern Louisiana
    -southern Mississippi

    The same areas where Obama performed the lowest during his campaigns.

    Yeah, zero sympathy for that particular cop. There was plenty of grounds to move that guy along and warn him not to go near her again. Not enough to arrest the guy most likely, but totally grounds for a "**** off, keep out of this park until she's left".

    This Chicago stuff is pretty predictable too.

    Nah, they planted that gun on him, protestors. Before the fact. :whatever:

    It died down a bit after the video. But it does show how much Chicago is a powder keg at the moment. It shows where the population feels at the moment.

    Even over guys who force the cop's hand in a legitimate shooting.

    Brown all over again. Doesn't matter to people of a certain ideology - if you believe the cops are institutionally the bad guys from the top-down, every shooting's an unjustified shooting.

    Glad to see the street demonstrations are dying down though, that first day they didn't seem to accept the bodycam. Pretty clear as day though, waist-holster & pistol on him during the actual altercation.

    The bodycam wasn't released until after the first day of protests. It just goes to point out where the relations are in that city.

    It's not policy to automatically release the bodycam outside of an actual trial. They only did it because people were irrationally losing their **** over a justified incident.

    Anyone see The New Day's (wrestlers in WWE to those who do not know) response to Hulk Hogan being readmitted into the WWE Hall of Fame? I liked it a lot. Sorry for the huge pics. I didn't know how to resize them.

    Waiter Fakes "We Don't Tip Terrorists" Note on Receipt

    Story

    So, Khalil Cavil claimed a customer had written "We Don't Tip Terrorists" on the receipt. But, what do you know? He did it, himself.

    Fortunately, I don't think the name of the customer was ever released, so (s)he avoided the harassment and even death threats from the SJW crowd that would surely have followed soon after the story originally broke.

    And so this story, like the false accusation of rape that pops up from time to time, provides another good reason to wait until all the facts before launching on a (self) righteous crusade against the accused.

    Ugh, way to go Khalil. Thanks for giving racists ammunition to claim this kind of stuff doesn't happen, and to make it harder for people this kind of thing actually happens to to be taken seriously.

    False rape and racism accusations are like manna from heaven for the misogynists and white supremacists. They use it to support their own deplorable viewpoint and continue to turn a blind eye to people suffering from sexual assault and racial violence.

    Who would have thought, fraud is a thing. And again, two stories do not a pattern make. There are plenty of instances of real racism that are a legitimate concern and need to be addressed.

    I remember that. It looks like the family was lucky enough to remain anonymous in that case, as well.

    For the story I posted about: HuffPo updated their original article about the story. But, if you look at the comments, the very first one clearly dating to the original story is from a guy who says, "Please post the customer's name, address, phone number, email, and photo."

    Clearly, he wanted the "obviously racist" customer to be exposed to the public. And, we all know there are plenty of SJWs who would want the same information out in public so they could drag the customer through the mud--get him fired from his job, protest outside of his house, send him hate mail via phone and e-mail, etc.. And, all based on the lies of a pathetic liar.

    This is why it's important to read about these false accusations, to hopefully educate others to use caution before attacking people on social media and elsewhere for perceived actions. Of course, however well-intentioned others may be, some don't mind if a few innocent people get caught in the crossfire thanks to their rush to judgment, as long as their agenda is moved forward. They do love that rush of broadcasting their self-righteousness . . .
