Defunding our police..

[Mitch f]

Well we will just have to wait and see what happens I guess. My prediction is nothing good. Then they will go back to what actually works... and it was working fine by the way.

Who cares if someone thinks you're a racist?  Since when did that become the worst thing anyone could label you with?

It's like you could just start calling someone all sorts of foul names.. . Peckerhead, CSer, MFer, Lazy goodfernuthin douchebag, ect ect.

But call them "racist" and they'll puff up like a blowfish and deny it with vigor.

Who gives a ratsass if you're racist?  If you are then you probably have a good reason to be.  It's no different than choosing which store you prefer to shop at.   

I won't eat at Sonic regardless of which town it's in.   What does that make me?

Unless you can pull up the contacts and call history on your phone and find a black contact less than 20 calls down on the list.....your @$$ is racist !

I find it funny some call me Racist. Be setting with Black Friends we all get a laugh at some stupid kids no matter what race they are. My wife pulled a Pistol on bunch of Black Kids, who called the Cops and stood behind what she did? An older Black Gentleman.

Have to laugh at my Step Daughter using the Race Card in College and her Job. Ask her about it and she says it is there why not?

Pretty much the same around here.  Call the sheriff and make a report for theft.  Get a call a week later, did you figure out who did it yet?  Nope, you are the detective.  If I had figured it out, there "might" have been a call  about a man with a gun...........

When we had our farm a guy drove through our property and set up Deer Camp on our property.

I drove there confronted him. He grabbed hold of me, I pulled a pistol and told him he better look around and see where he was.

He had a different tone but went to town told what I did. They said well seems you messed with the wrong person. LOL

Yep, I have run across several that wondered who I was.  When I let them know the word "landowner" they seem to take a different perspective.  We are a "stand your ground state".  That seems to carry a little weight.

"But we don't say "Odell got the job because he's so experienced and knowledgeable."  Or "Odell got the job because he's a great leader."  Or "Odell got the job because he always put more effort in than anyone else."  Or "Odell got the job because he's a great guy, and a good person."

We say "Odell got the job because he's black."

We're telegraphing to  the world what we think is important about guys like Odell.  It isn't their experience, work ethic, or character.  We see them as black folks, first and foremost.

The only way an employer is going to run afoul of affirmative action is if they're not interested in hiring intelligent, hardworking, talented, honest, decent employees- regardless of their skin color.  Is that the sort of business you want to be supporting?"

 

Not sure where you get your information.  No where did I say he got the job because he was black.  All I know is he was an experienced hand that had been there for several years and I was fortunate to have worked with him.  Typical of left leaning folks you jump to conclusions to try and make your point.

before all this crap happened, black unemployment was the lowest in history.  Maybe if the media had actually reported the news things would be different.

Back in January we left Springfield one morning to go see family in KC. Stopped at the Casey's close to the house to get the kid a donut and fill up. Right as I get out to pump gas a car comes flying in the parking lot and then I see some guy running towards the car. I actually heard him screaming before I saw him. He tries to get the door to the car open screaming that he's going to kill her if he can just get her out of the car. he's kicking the door and trying his best to break the window out. I was on the phone to 911 immediately because if he does get the door open then I'm going to have to do something and that probably isn't going to end well. I tell the dispatcher everything that is going on. And they asked me if I thought they should send an officer to the store. I said nope, just letting you know how my days going and hung up. Idiots. 

20 minutes later a cop calls me on my cell phone and says he's at the store and nobody is there. No shitt sherlock. And he wanted me to come back to the store. Uh...nope. If this lady in the car hadn't drove off and he would have got the door open she would have been dead before anyone besides me tried to help her.

I was living in the South and looking for work. I was told this is the Poor South go on Welfare.

Blacks are like anyone else if they want to work it is there. Mexicans that don’t care to learn English is different. I’ve had them come for a regular Job and run them off but if I want cheap I will work them. This was years ago but hired plenty and High School kids.
