    I seriously doubt those white libs would comply with that.

    Ever notice at most professional or major college sport events the crowd is overwhelmingly white? Why do you think that happens?

    I am asking you, usually one doesn’t answer a question with a question, and I still haven’t gotten an answer on my first inquiry, why there exists a strong possibility that a black kid driving thru an upper middle class neighborhood in a BMW at sunset will get stopped?

    Going to step up to the plate there “chiwawa?”

    There are many theories about the cause of Trumpism.

    Briefly, Trumpism is a return to a more ‘America first’ philosophy. And since America was, at first, a triumph of the Enlightenment, it’s hard to imagine it being at odds with the enlightened nationalism.

    Trumpism=traditional nationalism that gets slurred as white nationalism.

    The founders would take one look at the regressive left and—wait a minute. The founders would recognize them. And they’d wonder how they got here from France. Then they’d check them for guillotines.

    Do we have *evidence* of this strong possibility lol?

    And to whatever extent such evidence even exists, is it really worth tearing the county apart over?

    no they won't. . .
    Cops aren't looking to profile without a reason -but they would get pulled over if they exhibited any driving violations

    *shocking* a cop pulling over driving violation!

    do me a favor and provide a solid definition of 'institutional racism', please and thank you
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    it can only be because we’re beset by “false consciousness” that prevents us from perceiving how whiteness and West-ness have corrupted us
    such claptrap. There is the racism. white"ness" is BAD
