If you see racism everywhere, maybe it's them, maybe it's you or maybe it's both?
When you assume racist motives behind actions you are assuming you know another's thoughts and feelings and you simply can't do that (for the most part) untill the question is asked and the words are spoken.
He mentioned the rat infested comment by Trump, isn't the city actually rat infested? The assumption/narrative is racism.
Why is it so hard, why is it such a stretch to think he is taking literally about rats?
I am not discounting the existence. I AM saying that two people can see an event and have a separate and different interpretation of it.
Racisms come in every color and background, but only hearing about one is getting tiresome. We all feel those feelings others give off.
I was told last year I was being racist for asking a merchant about the upcoming business on BLK Friday.
What kind of game it that? Was that racism by me, him, or both? Was it simply him having a bad day?
Is the avoidance of eye contact racism, is it fear, or is it the same?
I don't want to be part of the problem, but why do I need to walk on eggshells every time I talk to another person? That constant worry I feel, is that racism?

@Avenger222 As the Georgia secretary of state told radio host Erick Erickson, there are 75,000 pending voters among a record total of 7 million registered in the state. Of these, 9,224 are minors under 18; 2,935 used a fake address; 3,393 are not citizens, and 5,842 were already registered.
Of the remaining applications, 75 percent submitted erroneous Social Security information. Almost a quarter of those “sloppy forms” came from a registration effort by the New Georgia Project, a group founded in 2014 by Stacey Abrams, the Democratic nominee for governor.
Abrams seems unconcerned about voter integrity, telling a crowd in Jonesboro that the "blue wave" would include "those who are documented and undocumented.” She later claimed she didn’t mean to imply noncitizens should actually vote.
While journalists have chased down the Georgia rabbit hole, law enforcement and citizen watchdog groups have uncovered serious voter fraud problems that have received almost no national attention.

Yes yes yes, wouldn't it be great if the United States didn't worry about anyone but themselves.
They should let earthquake and hurricane victims alone.
They shouldn't take refugees from the homelands they love.
The pirate ships need to earn a living.
Let Russia and China "annex" all neighboring land they want because it really is none of their business.
Let ISIS educate the Christians by removing heads.
NORKOR has every right to flex its political and nuclear muscle.
How dare they provide food, water, education, shelter, clothing, money and security.
Wouldn't it be a better world, yes yes yes...
If only we didn't bomb, no one would die.
You two really are ridiculous, pie in the sky dreamers.
Ya know, on second thought, it would make my paycheck alot bigger if the US didn't spread it around so much.

@cicron10 it comes from Lyndon Baines Johnson to Barack Hussain Obama. That's alright though, you are a young pup...
Oh, and where are the convictions for "treason"????
That's alright, let me tell ya. When you fabricate stories, you don't have a shred of evidence, when you don't have evidence, you won't have a conviction.
It's awesome that you used the word "winning". Your leadership told you it couldn't be done, the jobs are gone, your money is our taxes, perpetuated wars they said we shouldn't be in, wanted open boarders for terrorists, spies on political opponents, used the federal government as a political weapon, don't get me started on the Clinton's, uses smear campaigns, fake news (lies) and destabilized peaceful allies and on and on and on...
Now we are winning, Big League.
You're probably getting tired of winning. #walkaway
You nuts are so far out there now that you don't realize, you'll never will again.

@anonymousanomaly9538 I believe that you see easy answers to those questions and on the surface, I'll agree that (without other details) I might also agree, but with the addition of other factors and details those answer could be significantly different.
If I have wronged someone (accidentally or purposefully), filed bankruptcy, or failed to pay taxes a court could force me to release my property. I could be forced to give up my land for the public good. It sucks but that's life sometimes.
A life is more valuable, but it can also be forfeited as a penalty for causing the death of another, or for trying to cause harm or death to another.
The classic example comes to mind, if you could go back in time and kill Hitler when he was a child, would you?
You would be killing and innocent (at the time) person but you know for a fact that by doing so, you would save the lives of 6 million people. This is an impossible scenario but it illustrates that the other details do matter.
On your last statement, you used the word "unjust" and asked if it's right to do something unjust. The two words contradict each other.
It is either right and just, or it's wrong an unjust. It can't be both.
The people you described as peaceful. Is it possible for me to wrong you and not cause you physical harm?
Sure, you could be on your way to the hospital with a sick or injured loved one (or yourself) and I could purposefully block the road causing you to become stuck in traffic. A death could result and I never touched you.
I could peacefully remove your rights and never physically touch you and your only way to regain those rights could be through force against me. What do you do?

@mrnice7570 lol
Who said it was 1 acre???
I can sell my land at any time I choose to. Once the land is paid for, it is mine until I die or until I sell it, but I don't need to die to sell it. The land doesn't own me if I can walk away from it whenever I want.
From what you're saying, I have doubts if you are even an adult because you don't have a firm grasp on property ownership.
If I don't own the land, why can I choose to plant trees or row crops? If I don't own the land, why can't you cut down those trees or crops if you feel like it?
Because the land is not yours.
Because the land is mine.
It's like me saying that I could walk up to you on the street and take your phone and walk away from you without you being justified in stopping me.
Would you care if I did?
By your logic, you can own nothing, even your own body, because everything is of the earth.
We exert dominion over our surroundings, or we become prey to those who will. As a polite and organized society, we agree to the terms of living within it, and one of the first and most basic concepts is ownership.
Do you not own anything???

@B.Whittaker Once man left Africa we have been negatively affecting the planet.
Just look at North America. Before man arrived there was super fauna (giant bears, sloths, saber toothed tigers, dire wolves, mammoth, horses, camels, giant beaver...) and they are gone in the geological blink of an eye.
We are a non native species and we must alter the environment to survive, and no, noone is making positive change. Everyone who lives a life outside of a sustainable hunter/ gatherer method (a neutral impact) has a negative impact.
There is no "positive" impact.
Are you willing to starve because you need glasses and can't find food, or die from an tooth abscess or a ruptured appendix because modern medicine is detrimental to the environment?
He'll no you're not.
We are not going to transcend, we are what we are and we prevent evolution ever time we use technology to prevent slow, horrible, 100% curable, and preventable deaths.
The ONLY way to "reduce" our impact is to kill off 99.99% of all people and maintain that number without any technology.
That is what it takes to bring about your pie in the sky utopia.
Don't be ridiculous...

@dylanthompson5400 the indigenous didn't care for the land.
They open burned to make hunting more productive, shaping the land to their desires.
They also killed off the mega fauna as well as each other, and kept human slaves.
So, no, just stop.
If the indigenous didn't own the land, they shouldn't have killed for access to it.
And...
Thanks for not answering a single question.
You can't because your argument falls apart (like I said before).
If you don't own your body, can the majority decide we don't want you to reproduce, speak, or live, and you'll be fine with that because it's not yours? Are you not an individual?
To own the land (or bodies) so that we can survive with some semblance of peace, security, or self guided direction, so that we can even exist, we must exploit it/them.
If we share the land, when was the last time you pulled weeds in the field next to me? Isn't it your responsibility too?
You're all talk.

@dylanthompson5400
Why did the first peoples kill each other?
Was it wrong for them to kill each other?
If so, why?
It's like you want to sound philosophical, but your lack of answers demonstrates that you don't live in that world you claim we all do. Hollow words have no true meaning, so your quote is without merit.
You can't pick and choose what, where, or how much we have control of our environment. It is all or nothing.
Do you heat and cool your home?
Do you earn over $32k per year?
Do you decide what to wear before you leave your home?
You exert ownership of yourself daily. You own your actions, thoughts, and words. You buy, sell, and trade something to meet your needs. You use goods for your own purposes.
You don't work your neighbors land, so you need to accept that the responsibility (ownership) is his, not yours.
