Your sjw liberal arse is showing micropenis
Dude I am just about the most anti-tumblr mindset anti-sjw anti-fishmouth liberal you can imagine to the point that I am constantly railing about it. Virtue signalling has gotten to a ridiculous point in this country and the sensitivity over racism, sexism, and any other -ism has gotten way out of control.
This ain't one of those cases. Thug has racist undertones. I love criticism of Obama but anytime that criticism boils down to "he's black" it's not cool.

the year he transferred to Columbia, a pretty good school
Didn’t this occur because he befriended some shite bag extremist there?
I mean, you can’t just call up Columbia cuz you got good grades at occidental and say “when do I enroll”?

I get pissed off by virtue signalling and SJWs too, but you have to call straight up racism when you see it.
Thug was a term used for the followers of the Thuggees in India in the 1800's. Here is a link (sorry for the Wiki)
Thuggees
It has been claimed by the left as racist as it has been applied to blacks. However, the term can (and has been applied) to whites.
Knowledge is power.

I am still amazed BHO was connected to Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground and it didnt sink his political aspirations

It's not wrong to be skeptical of how he managed to get into Columbia. Like all Ivy League schools (and I live in the town with the worst Ivy League right now), it's the connections and money that get you in before your personal qualifications.
It doesn't change the fact that he graduated from Columbia, though. That's something that doesn't happen without some ability whether or not you had help getting in.
Don't act like Trump didn't have massive help getting into Wharton - even the admissions officer has admitted that. But Trump graduated, and that's a legitimate accomplishment.

I agree, using thug here to describe BHO is not justified

Aware of the term “Gentleman’s C”?
Ivy Leagues don’t tend to flunk people who get in, they either pass them along or route them to easier majors. Especially in the case of minorities.

He directed the full force of government agencies against his political opponents seeking to ruin or even jail them and terrify their families?
That's kinda thuggish...……..just sayin
Not to mention. At this point, can there be ANY doubt how the divorce records of his original Senate opponent "leaked"

Holy shite what a pull. You realize it doesn't matter where a term originally came from 200 years ago, or if it's sometimes applied to whites too, for it to still be massively used to refer to blacks? This started with the rise of rap and rap culture and it's - I thought - a pretty obvious thing to everyone with eyes and ears.
Getting into dictionary literalism ain't a good look, man.

Hey, there we go. That could be considered thuggish behavior. He was older than 30 at that point.

Fair point
Although, somehow, I doubt his philosophy of "by any means necessary" piece of shite thinking fell out of the sky when he turned 40.

No, it's not, but unless there's proof that he was a violent criminal at age 20 then calling him a thug stems entirely from him being black.
This ain't a good look to be the hill to die on, guys.
I'm not arguing one way or the other. I actually don't care. You people argue the dumbest shite. And by "you people", I mean posters on this message board, not minorities in case you were wondering since you're apparently the arbiter of language.
I'm just curious about the evolution of the meaning of words.

What about his being black is likely the only reason he became president?
Is that cool?

I don't really have a problem with people saying that, it's probably true.
And it's probably true that it helped him graduate, too.
Doesn't excuse calling him a thug at age 20.
