They didn’t even throw off their own oppressors. White male republicans set them free from Democrats.

"Is__________________________ enough?"

No. Never. Ever.

Keep in mind, the US dropped actual nuclear weapons on Japan in 1945, and they got over it...

"the enslaved"

JFC. They tried to make this a thing on A Million Little Things.

Now do 90% of Black Americans with respect to the Democrat Party Plantation and get back to us.

blacks have been far more destructive to American cities than if you just dropped a nuclear bomb on them 80 years ago

I wouldn’t care either way about Juneteenth being a holiday of and in itself.

The reason why I’m opposed to recognizing Juneteenth is because it’ll lead to more calls for reparations and the like.

I’ll celebrate when the Dems and Libs free black people from the mental plantation they have them captured on.

What you call destructive, they call it culture.

They are free, and I will celebrate that with them happily. Emancipation was a big event for this country.

Well, let's see... we give them welfare out the wazoo... give them a tax return for absolutely no contribution... Even with this 15% of the population creates about 80% of the problems in this country...

So, I am certain that a holiday is going to be the last step in correcting all of this...

In reality, the day of the emancipation proclamation should be a federal holiday, but since it was already a holiday with New Year’s, that wasn’t good enough.

I am fine with them adding a federal holiday in the middle of the summer. Private companies and locals don’t have to make it a day off, so no big deal. It is pandering at its finest, but in this case, fine.

My point is simply that the US literally dropped two nuclear bombs of the Japanese, and we were on friendly term with them well within a generation.

It's been nearly 160 years since the Emancipation Proclamation and nearly 60 years since the Civil Rights Amendment, and yet to hear activists today things are worse of in America than at any tie in our history.

To say it's been long time to move on is an understatement of epic proportions.

I'd like the celebration to be from the 13th to the 19th...like almost a Mardi Gras...

2 raisins:

Less the fed is allowed to work

More days the gheys have to compete with blacks for all their intersectional nonsense.

Make June the official Black History Month and let the gays have February.

This way, blacks get a longer month and the gays can't have their indecent exposure freak parades in the cold.

It's a Win-win. Everyone is happy.

The DEMS have been oppressing the Blacks for decades!

They give them just enough to survive, and keep that VOTE!

And conservatives get blamed for their demise!
