2003, I feel sorry for Overt Bigots like you

Sep 3, 2020, 12:03 PM

who simply don't listen to other people long enough to understand whether your opinion has been formed with real empathy for other thoughts and ideas.

And yes, I said Overt Bigot. Get over yourself.

1. The simple fact is that I do know what Wakanda is, I did go see the movie Black Panther, and I am as sorry as anyone that a young man lost his life to cancer way too soon. Your presumption was Bigoted, at best.

The simple fact of the matter is that you could have asked whether I knew what Wakanda was prior to going off down your bigoted path. You chose not to. Which is why you are the Bigot sir, not me.

Oh, I know that doesn't fit your narrative - that's why I am capitalizing the words. They are capitalized to do nothing more than p*ss you off - in hopes that one day you'll get out of sorts enough to actually have a thought that is outside of your predisposed view of the world. It's possible your emotion will force you to lose control enough to think differently for one possible second.

Because only then will YOU and the OP join the rest of us in trying to bring things together for all.

2. Which brings me to this: The Point of what I was showing was that there's a whole lot of People demonstrating about being "Black". They're marching, they're yelling, they're abusing Police, they're whatever. Now they're apparently celebrating Touchdowns as well with pointedly Race-based demonstration.

The OP's original point was simply to highlight what he believes is yet ANOTHER Demonstrable way in which BLACK people have been slighted - right down to giving out penalties in Football. LOL - you all need to take a chill and understand that your emotion is clouding your judgement.

Tell me kind sir, have you carefully considered that every one of the Nationally highlighted Police controversies over the last few months DOES HAVE mitigating circumstances? Every one.

As example: It is being questioned as to whether George Floyd might have had a "lethal" dose of fentanyl in his system. There is also question from the Medical Examiner as to whether he died from asphyxia or not. In a like vein, Jacob Blake is now known to have had a knife in his possession at the time of being shot, and was also under specific Warrant for Arrest such that he simply could not be allowed to leave. We could argue others as well.

This is not about RACE - it's about facts. Did the Cops do something wrong? Quite possible. Was it Murder? That's being determined. Was it Racism? That will be determined as well IF people allow the process to work its way through. I mean, My God, it's not like Minneapolis was part of Dixie, and isn't as Liberal as any city could be.

I pointed out - and the OP kindly agreed above - that BLACK people are demonstrating a whole lot these days - but only for BLACK causes. Get over yourselves. Put your unnecessary emotion to rest.

This is America. Start working for Equality of Opportunity, not some specific Race-based agenda. And just so you know, I'll be happy to write the exact SAME thing about Women who over-stress Gender causes and Gender issues. It's mind-numbing how Sexist Women are these days - not because they started off intending to be that way, but because they no longer question whether Misogyny is even really a thing anymore.

My suggestion: Start considering who all the CLOSED MINDED BIGOTS are. Stop talking about being Black. Start talking about being American.

Yes....this!!! How hard is that? Thank you! Simply say "I'm not sure I know what this means - please explain."

Black Panther is a fictional character created by Stan Lee & Jack Kirby in 1966. He is from the fictional country of Wakanda in Africa. Black Panther's real name is T'Challa, and he is depicted as the king and protector of Wakanda. Chadwick Boseman from Anderson SC played T-Challa in a number of Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. T'challa uses his country's vast wealth and technological resources to help all of humanity. The 'X' crossing of arms along with "Wakanda Forever!" is the battle cry/insignia for Wakandans. It is beyond my scope of comprehension how a fictional character in a fictional comic/movie created by 2 Jewish guys in the mid 60s is overtly political in 2020...but here we are.

PS - not only is T'challa a good example but Boseman himself is a wonderful example. While battling cancer himself, privately, he continued his visits to St Jude's Pediatric Cancer patients to bring them a little joy and encouragement.
