I confused...was he speaking of Austin, New Orleans, or Baton Rouge?

That's why I liked the recent video where the CVS manager called the police on the black lady.
In the video are says. "No not African, I'm black. It's okay to say black. I'm black"

I don't like the African American term. It feels odd.

Their ancestors are from Africa. I take it you also hate the term Mexican?

“It is also important to acknowledge that nearly all monuments to the Confederacy and its leaders were erected without a true democratic process. People of color often had no voice and no opportunity to raise concerns about the city’s decision to honor Confederate leaders.”


And yet, the report recommended an action rather than a democratic process so why even say this?

Thats why they love public service positions.
They get to spread their poison not only on their local constituency, but also a much broader area..like an entire country.

They're actually dangerous in some cases.

These people are nothing more than societal saleman.

They annoy, annoy, annoy until the customer finally gives in.

Just say no and move on.
