This kind of woke nonsense is exactly why I didn't watch the Oscars this year, last year, or the year before that.

quote:

Actress-turned-director Regina King wasted little time Sunday by kicking off the 93rd annual Academy Awards by declaring she would have protested in Minnesota “if things had gone differently this past week,” in an apparent reference to the verdict in the Derek Chauvin case.

“I have to be honest: if things had gone differently this past week in Minneapolis I might’ve traded in my heels for marching boots,” King said. “I know many of you want to reach for your remote when you feel Hollywood is preaching to you, but as the mother of a black son who fears for his safety, I know the fear that so many live with. And no fame or fortune changes that. OK?”

I didn’t have to reach for my remote. Nor did many others who didn’t want to watch that crap

Obviously the solution to all of this is segregation

Here we go again with this stupid bullshite. Perhaps raise him to not be an idiot. He'll be fine.

This "racism" BS has about run it's course.

This is the newest talking point.

Well, raise him right, tell him not to be a thug, have some respect of authority and say your prayers... He will probably be fine OR be killed by another black son and not the boogeyman you have created...

If she truly fells for his safety from the police, she should have done a better job as a parent...

Even when things happen in favor for the Left/woke-topians, the virtue signaling must never be relinquished. Even when juror intimidation works, we still must talk about rioting and protesting.

These people are the biggest racist POS in our country. Maybe raise your son not to be a thug so you don't have to fear for his life. Maybe raise him to respect authority rather than fear it or hate it.

They could do away with the Oscars and no-one but Hollywood would care.

Nobody cares about the Oscars - hope the ratings tanked even lower this year.

ETA - she was only on a few times and I know nothing of anything else she has done.

So apparently she's planning on raising a junkie who gets high on fentanyl laced Meth, commits felonies, resists arrests, and, in his off time, has fun robbing houses with his fellow ghetto lad gang members while sticking a gun to the belly of the pregnant homeowner.

I've said it before, Regina King is the Jemele Hill of Hollywood.

Shameful.

There's a fine line between justice and human sacrifice, and sadly it was crossed last week.

You and your son have a far greater chance of being killed by a black person than a cop or any other race...and I had no idea the Oscars took place...don't care either...
