pulling down of these statues are college aged kids and some high school aged kids. I don't blame them, I blame their dead beat parents. I blame the universities for not teaching these kids critical thinking skills. You think getting people on your side by tearing down things they hold dear to their heart will do it? Absolutely not. All that does is make people push back even more. Sorry but you can't get me on board to defund the police while looting an Apple store. Sorry not going to stand next to you to fight racism as you write "kill whitey" on what use to be a standing statue of an Abolitionist. I don't believe in systematic racism. I've seen too many things that tells me differently. Are we perfect, nope didn't say that but to act as though we haven't righted the wrongs of generations past is just being dishonest or a straight up liar. These groups don't want equality, they want to rule. Go look at the BLM website where they say they are against the westernized nuclear family. They straight up say they are Marxist. The 2 ladies that run the group said in an interview they didn't care about race but pushing the Marxist agenda. They're doing it by race baiting. You can't tell me in 2020 we aren't better than we have EVER been in this country. I'm just tired of the fighting and lying. Facts matter, numbers matter and the facts and numbers say it's never been better NO matter your race. America is the greatest idea ever thought of and unfortunately because we are so free we have people who push demonic and evil ideas. If you don't agree with me you may want to look in the mirror and ask yourself why you think the way you do. Is it because you've seen it or experienced it or is it because that is what you have been told. People only know 2 things, what they've been taught and what they've been told and yes they are 2 different things.

Yet, paragraphs and spacing seem to elude you. Add these and I'd get through the first couple of sentences. I do think I agree with you though.

Left-leaning believers are so many & will take over the old America on this voting cycle?

B/C the socialists, progressives, left-leaning Dems were smart many years ago in that they could slowly take over within..
by infiltrating the colleges with their thinking type of professors & administrators..then teach their ideas to the students class by class..year by year..
then put those students (with their minds filled with dislike for American since it is a bad country and capitalism doesn’t work for the masses) into running public schools & newspaper companies for decades..
and Bam, your ideology eventually has control of tens of millions of new minds that believe & live it.

You don't believe in systemic racism?

Do you also not believe in the Home Owner's Loan Act, National Housing Act, or the Home Owner's Loan Corporation? If you know about the HOLC maps and still don't think systemic racism specifically has been a part of modern society for almost a century, well, you're not worth having a conversation with.

And if you don't think I'm being sarcastic, it's a complete waste of my time to even try to talk to you.

you mean those maps from the 30's?
Just FYI, banks "redline" people all the time. It's in their interest to do so. The same way a 17 year old has higher car insurance, and old person has higher health insurance. It's called risk and used to process loans millions of times a day. I guess if a person can't get a mortgage, its because of their skin color, and has nothing to do with credit history, employment stability, etc. The black population of my neighborhood is commensurate with the ratio of the surrounding area. Therefore, I must assume that the lending practices are the same.

"Education is thus a most powerful ally of humanism, and every American school is a school of humanism. What can a theistic Sunday school's meeting for an hour once a week and teaching only a fraction of the children do to stem the tide of the five-day program of humanistic teaching?" -- Charles F. Potter, "Humanism: A New Religion," 1930

has been a manipulative national tantrum. We are being told that police are hunting minorities on the streets. The overwhelming evidence is to the contrary, but no news agency is telling people this. We are told that minorities are targeted and harassed more than white Americans, and this appears to have legitimacy...some of which can be explained and some of which requires a hard look at how we police. But none of it justifies the last month.

Try some white-space so 'the man,' will leave you alone.
