  1. As I saw it, Cenk didn't really take any stance one way or the other, he just reported where both men stood. He seemed to lean towards Simmons but I felt that was just what happens when you have one guy on your show and you warm up to them.

  2. There are good points on both sides and while I have the same feelings as Don regarding most of the things he mentioned, I certainly agree that it's unwise to make those things the focus as though they were the root of the troubles and the pivotal changes that need to be made. They're on the surface level and it will feed into the mentality of those not living the struggle that everything would be fine if those black people just dressed and spoke differently, which it wouldn't.
