    Im not interested in prayer rugs at the border, im interested in the content of the thread I posted, not having it trolled with unrelated posts.

    Have anything to add about the thread other than asking for statistical math
    An expected denial. Yes, I do the same but I'm man enough to admit it. Thanks for singling me out as the only one trolling this thread. It's all my fault and my fault alone, eh? Here, I'll save you the trouble: /unsubscribe. Enjoy!

    I get what you are saying, but it seems that as this mentality spreads, it's effects are irreversible.


    Look how this particular case went down. A person looked at the photo and was not phased at all. Then after being asked to step back and reexaminethecphoto and process all of the politically correct possibilities, she suddenly flashed onto the race card. Once a person becomes infected in that manner, how do you cure it?

    Yes, him accusing you of insulting him with your respose is odd. There was no insult.

    You can't make this stuff up.

    https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/o...-miner-edition

    This is a real thing, written by a real person. It is not satire. Here’s how the article, which was published by the Arizona Republic's online property, azcentral.com, opens:


    "A few weeks ago, I attended a holiday party at a downtown Phoenix restaurant. I walked around to view the photographs on the wall.

    Then a photograph caught my attention.

    Friends said, “It’s coal miners at a pub after work.” It was a photograph of coal miners with blackened faces. I asked a Latinx and white woman for their opinion. They said it looked like coal miners at a pub after work. Then they stepped back, frowned and said it’s men in blackface.

    I asked the waitress to speak with a manager. Instead, I spoke with a white restaurant owner. I explained to him why the photograph was offensive. Evidently, someone else had made a similar comment about the photograph before."

    Nasty $#@!s should of washed up before going out. Whatever happened to "cleanliness being next to Godliness?" LOL

    "Covered in their work" was essentially the phrase or pic I was looking for. If this group of guys has black only on their face , it's probably blackface. If it's on their clothes , they are probably coal miners.
    You ca see the implications through language too. "What I see". "Why I find it offensive" No attempt to determine what the opic really was, just that one person was offended so the owner , who had the nerve to be white, had to be bothered to hear this person's perception.
