Most of our mass shooters target very diverse crowds of innocent people
Got a double play with that one.
“This so-called racist nation is the same one that gave Black Americans their own exclusive water fountains.”
Whew. Some of these sound a little too much like things that have actually been said, like:
“We gave them jobs, didn’t we?”
I literally heard these exact words once: “we gave them equality and it wasn’t enough”. Yup.
My response was ‘they were equals before, we didn’t give them anything.’ and all i got in response was a strong signal that the conversation was over
This is my fave:
Paul Gruber, Warehouse Manager “America is not a racist country, but a federation of racist states.”
As an indigenous Canadian … I’ve actually heard a variation of this one before
“I’ve never faced any discrimination for being 3% Cherokee.”
I’ve heard “why can’t these people just get their shit together? Their land was taken hundreds of years ago!” Meanwhile the mentally ill 40 year old native guy down the street was raped and abused in residential schools, and was taken from his family and community.
Too many Canadians think the trauma inflicted on first Nations people happened a long time ago and wonder why they’re so fucked up to this day. They don’t realize this residential school shit JUST ended and the anti first nations racism is still rampant
“How many times do I have to cite very selective lines from the Constitution before people understand this?”
Lol
You know, come to think of it, I never have met a slave before. Case closed, our white hands are clean (obviously).
