Nonprofits Dumping Mar a Lago

[Agent Zero]

I have the perfect solution. Move all the Confederate statues to the Mar a Lago grounds and hold all alt right, KKK, and Nazi rallys there from now on.

At least 20 organizations have canceled fundraisers and events at President Donald Trump (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/topic/donald-trump)’s resort in Palm Beach, Florida ― many after his tirade last week defending the white nationalist, KKK and neo-Nazi groups (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-charlottesville-statement_us_59935477e4b009141640ab00) that sparked deadly violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.The exodus began on Thursday, when the Cleveland Clinic and the American Cancer Society pulled their annual galas at Mar-a-Lago (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/american-cancer-cleveland-clinic-mar-a-lago_us_5995dd24e4b01f6e801ce093) after Trump blamed “both sides” for the violence caused by a white supremacist gathering in Charlottesville. By Friday, more than a half-dozen other groups (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/nonprofits-mar-a-lago-trump_us_599735e9e4b0a2608a6c44de) had also announced they would not hold events at the resort.

Over the weekend, several more organizations followed suit, bringing the number of groups disassociating themselves from Trump’s property up to 20, the Palm Beach Post reported on Monday (http://postonpolitics.blog.palmbeachpost.com/2017/08/21/charities-bail-on-mar-a-lago-after-trump-charlottesville-comments/).

The Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society pulled its 2018 Tropical Safari Gala from Mar-a-Lago on Sunday, citing “distractions.”

“We have an unyielding commitment to inspire people to act on behalf of wildlife and the natural world,” the zoo’s CEO and president, Andrew Aiken, said in a statement (http://www.palmbeachzoo.org/zoo-gala-move-from-mar-a-lago). “After thoughtful consideration by Zoo leadership, we have decided it is important that we not allow distractions to deter us from our mission and culture.”

There’s been growing corporate fallout (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-business-moral_us_599742f7e4b0e8cc855dc014) over Trump’s widely condemned response to the violence in Charlottesville. He took 48 hours (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-charlottesville-white-nationalists_us_5991cd41e4b09071f69b7d39?fab) to directly denounce the white nationalist groups that incited the violence, and during a fiery press conference just a day later, said there were “very fine people” (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-news-conference-charlottesville_us_59935814e4b04b19336105d5?bej) among the white supremacist protesters.

"many after his tirade last week defending the white nationalist, KKK and neo-Nazi groups that sparked deadly violence in Charlottesville, Virginia."

Two lies in one sentence :thumbsup:

"for the violence caused by a white supremacist gathering in Charlottesville"

Again if the counter protesters hadn't been there this would have been a non issue.

Would you prefer attending a KKK or Nazi rally at Mar a Lago?

[del]

there are many fine people amongst the neo-nazis and white supremacists.

i'm surprised the non-profits don't want to be associated with such fine people like trump and his supporters

[hanger4]

Are you deflecting from your OP's link's lies ??

If white supremacists weren't racist assholes we wouldn't need counter protesters.

Does that mean you condone the violence ??

It's impoosible for you to engage in a rational discussion.

[Crepitus]

Does that mean you condone the violence ??

Where did you get that?

[del]

Where did you get that?

q: do you like eggs?

a: yes, i do.

q: so you condone gang violence?

it's what he does

[hanger4]

Where did you get that?

You quoted me Crepitus, I was speaking of the violence. If the counter protesters hadn't been there there wouldn't have violent clashes. You just said these a-holes need protesting, do you condone the violence ??

Of course not. It is not right, and we don't need those people giving us a bad name

[hanger4]

Of course not. It is not right, and we don't need those people giving us a bad name

Who are "those people", antifa or the supremacists ??

[Bethere]

Why is hanger4 so angry? It's just an internet forum, and no one seems to have had a private server!

[Tahuyaman]

Many people have always condoned violence when it's being committed while supporting their cause.

[Tahuyaman]

Of course not. It is not right, and we don't need those people giving us a bad name

They are representing the mainstream of your side.

[Crepitus]

Who are "those people", antifa or the supremacists ??

It's not the white supremacists who might give the democrats a bad name now is it.

[hanger4]

q: do you like eggs?

it's what he does

That's twice tonight you've spoke to soon.

[Crepitus]

They are representing the mainstream of your side.

0.000825% does not represent the main stream by any stretch.

[Crepitus]

No, he hasnt. I just got sucked into playing your silly game.

[hanger4]

Your double standards are showing Bethere posting in good faith and all that jazz. :rofl:

[hanger4]

No, he hasnt. I just got sucked into playing your silly game.

You have no idea what I'm referring to Crepitus

[Crepitus]

You have no idea what I'm referring to Crepitus

It's pretty obvious.

[hanger4]

It's not the white supremacists who might give the democrats a bad name now is it.

Is civility foreign to you ??

Your response appeared ambiguous so I asked for clarification.
And I agree, antifa is giving the left a bad name.

[hanger4]

It's pretty obvious.

Not to you it's not. It has nothing to do with anything said in this thread.

[Crepitus]

Come on dude, that was like asking for clarification that the sky is blue.

I try not to assume Crepitus and I don't read thoughts into a posters words, I ask questions.

I don't know where you got that number, but it's irrelevant. Your side is now in the hands of the alt-left and ANTIFA types.

[KathyS]

If white supremacists weren't racist $#@!s we wouldn't need counter protesters.
And primarily democrats! The Clinton's should be proud :grin:

[Crepitus]

I don't know where you got that number, but it's irrelevant. Your side is now in the hands of the alt-left and ANTIFA types.

33 out of 40,000 and there is no such thing as the alt-left.

[Crepitus]

And primarily democrats! The Clinton's should be proud :grin:

"Primarily democrats" what? White supremacists? In your dreams.

And the Clinton are irrelevant at this time.

[Grokmaster]

And others are lining up to fill their spots....

[KathyS]

Democrats founded the KKK and promoted segregation. The Clinton's claim Byrd was their mentor, you know, the former Grand Wizard of the KKK?

[hanger4]

33 out of 40,000 and there is no such thing as the alt-left.

Cool, then Antifa is mainstream left.

You sure ya wanna go there ??

[Tahuyaman]

33 out of 40,000 and there is no such thing as the alt-left.

There is an "alt-left" and it represents your side. The number arrested at any one demonstration isn't the issue.

[Tahuyaman]

Robert Byrd was not a Grand Wizzard. He was a Grand Cyclops. He was the top recruiter of the KKK.

The Democrats stand for racism, segregation and disunity. That's the origin of their power.

That's twice tonight you've spoke to soon.

Long ago yes. Things have changed. Why do you think David duke, you know, the former grand wizard of the kkk? Has been a fan of Trump all along and even felt the need to remind him "who got him elected" right after Trump's grudging second take at addressing the Charlottesville tragedy?

Today's white supremacist Nazis are republicans.

[Crepitus]

The anti-fascists aren't even on the left. They are anarchists.

There is no alt left, and as far as numbers they were an issue with you a few posts ago, why back up now?

[hanger4]

I guess WaPo, CNN and the BBC got it wrong then;
