Who says we've "got past racism"?

My black supervisor is tailed by security whenever he visits a department store.

A black man driving a Lexus was stopped by police in Johnstown Pa was stopped on suspicion of being a black man driving a Lexus. The cops trashed his car, tearing out the upholstery and flooring, then told him he was "free to go", without charges. They refused to give their names or badge numbers.

It turned out the driver was an FBI agent investigating racist cops in the city, and official indifference toward snipers shooting interracial couples.

A Chinese American friend of ours, a professional woman, was stopped by Customs 60 miles south of the Canadian border and given a citation for impeding law enforcement. He uncooperative attitude was because they would give no reason for stopping her!

Nope, racism is real, and requires constant vigilance to combat.

Yes, because flying the flags of nonexistent nations over government buildings not owned by those nations makes no sense, not because those things are offensive. You're not going to see the Byzantine Flag flown over any government buildings either. It's not because the Byzantine Flag is "offensive to muslims", it's because Byzantium doesn't exist anymore.


Are you telling me the CSA, or even the Confederate army still exist? That doesn't sound particularly accurate.

Wait. The newscaster who killed his former colleagues was gay? Shows you how relevant it is to what he did. And he didn't kill them because they were straight, anyway. He did it cause he was insane.
