I saw this shite last night. The fact that those black council members haven't been run out of town over their blatant racism and idiocy shows how fricking atrocious black culture in general has gotten.
Have some fricking pride in your city. Jesus.

Yup.
And white People invented Christmas trees just so they could hang a bunch of colored things from the branches

If they put up black posts to keep cars off the grass, it’s about getting rid of the tailgating environment, not the trees.
And don’t believe it when Port Allen says there’s a multi-level parking garage on the way.

If a black person heard something repeated that was racist, you don't need proof. It's the gospel and to dispute it is racist in and of itself.

This racial crap just keeps getting more ridiculous and stupid every day.
Maybe whitey should take a knee for the trees.

The sad part is that when they run out of race cards to play, they'll look around and see that they've destroyed everything around them. Of course that won't be their fault either.
Of course it won’t be their fault. They’re too stupid to see that it’s their own kind ruining everything for them along with destroying their surroundings. Just look at those inner cities for prime examples.
But yet it’s everyone else’s fault because those dumbasses are scared to look in the f’n mirror to realize the whole problem.

Nah. It’s the democratic party that lives by that division. That’s how they keep their little flock all riled up with the “victim mentality”. How else are those democratic crook politicians are going to remain in office and become millionaires?
Just look at those two mules, sheila jackson and maxine watters for a prime example of the stupidity of their voting demographic.
They’re too stupid to know they’ve been played for the past several years. The “democrats” are too stupid to know they’ve been played for the past 50-60 years.

One would think that a reporter for a mid-sized city's paper would know the difference between predominate and predominant.

The Republican Party was founded primarily to oppose slavery, and Republicans eventually abolished slavery. The Democratic Party fought them and tried to maintain and expand slavery. The 13th Amendment, abolishing slavery, passed in 1865 with 100% Republican support but only 23% Democrat support in congress.
The 14th Amendment, giving full citizenship to freed slaves, passed in 1868 with 94% Republican support and 0% Democrat support in congress. The 15th Amendment, giving freed slaves the right to vote, passed in 1870 with 100% Republican support and 0% Democrat support in congress.
The Ku Klux Klan was originally and primarily an arm of the Southern Democratic Party. Its mission was to terrorize freed slaves and "******-loving" (their words) Republicans who sympathized with them.
President Eisenhower, a Republican, integrated the US military and promoted civil rights for minorities. Eisenhower pushed through the Civil Rights Act of 1957. One of Eisenhower's primary political opponents on civil rights prior to 1957 was none other than Lyndon Johnson, then the Democratic Senate Majority Leader. LBJ had voted the straight segregationist line until he changed his position and supported the 1957 Act.
The historic Civil Rights Act of 1964 was supported by a higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats in both houses of Congress. In the House, 80 percent of the Republicans and 63 percent of the Democrats voted in favor. In the Senate, 82 percent of the Republicans and 69 percent of the Democrats voted for it.
Contrary to popular misconception, the parties never "switched" on racism. The Democrats just switched from overt racism to a subversive strategy of getting blacks as dependent as possible on government to secure their votes. At the same time, they began a cynical smear campaign to label anyone who opposes their devious strategy as greedy racists.
Sorry, I got long winded.

Why are African Americans so underrepresented when it comes to interest in nature, outdoor recreation, and environmentalism? In this thought-provoking study, Carolyn Finney looks beyond the discourse of the environmental justice movement to examine how the natural environment has been understood, commodified, and represented by both white and black Americans. Bridging the fields of environmental history, cultural studies, critical race studies, and geography, Finney argues that the legacies of slavery, Jim Crow, and racial violence have shaped cultural understandings of the "great outdoors" and determined who should and can have access to natural spaces.
Drawing on a variety of sources from film, literature, and popular culture, and analyzing different historical moments, including the establishment of the Wilderness Act in 1964 and the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Finney reveals the perceived and real ways in which nature and the environment are racialized in America. Looking toward the future, she also highlights the work of African Americans who are opening doors to greater participation in environmental and conservation concerns.
