He could have said, "if you don't like it here in the USA, there are hundreds of other countries where I encourage you to relocate and continue your lives."

More like mcchinhoyang, am I right?


And to chinhoyang, go suck a potato back on your emerald isle of shite and illiteracy. We should have built our own railroad and let you bastards starve.

The Uhurus are obsessed with Africa and romanticize it. No wonder Congemi told them to go back to Africa, it's all they talk about.

Well I'll say this, it's certainly not the most politically astute thing to say.

It doesn't really matter who you are talking about. The second you say "go back to Africa." You're going to immediately be dubbed a racist.

False the lasting effects of slavery and the Jim Crowe era have put blacks at a disadvantage. Blacks in this country have been enslaved longer than they been free. Let that sink in.

Why yall get so defensive when blacks talk about their experience in this country?

“Mr. Nevel, you and your people, you talk about reparations. The reparations that you talk about, Mr. Nevel, your people already got your reparations,” Congemi said, pointing a finger at the audience. “Your reparations came in the form of a man named Barack Obama.” “My advice to you, if you don’t like it here in America, planes leave every hour from Tampa airport,” Congemi continued. “Go back to Africa. Go back to Africa. Go back!”

I wish I could prove that I was Norwegian and that I could already speak & read Norwegian.

They could deport me back today.

Do you know the definition of racism? That's not racist. It's stupid to say, but it's not racist.

Everyone has let the Left distort what racism means. Racism is believing one race is superior than another/one race is inferior to another.

In what way does telling black people who seem to hate everything about this country, to go back to Africa, racist?

It's not. Does it have a racial element? You betchya. Does saying anything that happens to have an element of racial connotation = racism. ABSOLUTELY NOT.
Anyone claiming differently is either lacking the critical thinking skills necessary to form an opinion on the matter, or is intellectually dishonest.

Not a single Black-American alive has been a slave. Let that sink in. Dolt.

In 2017 that's primarily due to 70% of black kids being born into single parent homes. Other than that they have advantages over equally qualified kids of other races.

The idea that whites have the right to tell people to back to their country as if America is their country to begin with.

We do have the right. It's called free speech. Dunce.

Is it stupid, yeah. Do we have the right to do so, Yes.

How come I have the feeling you'll be popping into any possible racial discussion? Your name sucks. I'd ban you now just for your name.
