Aren't those Dem trolls?

How did dem trolls get into CPAC.

You got to remember these people have had their critical thinking skills bred out of them by 30 ****ing years of Fox News.

"I'm here to show support for President Donald Trump and I brought these wonderful Trump flags to spite the media"

would 100% get you through the door

I have no idea how the crowds/invites are formed in the CPAC.

So it's dem trolls passing flags to idiot republicans who don't know what the Russian flag looks like? Someone has to be sarcastic at some step here.

Yeah I'd bet some trolly SuperPAC bought a bunch of flags and a ticket, dropped like a thousand bucks for this story

Soros. Duh.

They're not stupid, they're uneducated. Which is a further reason why it's so important to the alt right to decimate public education, and really all education.

The day isn't far away where charter schools have the autonomy to set their curriculum, and after that where a non-zero number make the really slight change to teach kids that it 'wasn't just Jews' killed during the Holocaust. You can guess where that leads next.

I don't have time to spend all day on here, so I'll just respond to this for now since it's the first response I've seen...

I never saw much of a fight to end systemic racism among police departments. What I saw was (FINALLY) outrage at unarmed black people being shot dead by cops who think they're judge, jury, and executioner. NEWSFLASH: This has been going on for DECADES. It's only because of cell phones that the public now has a chance to see for themselves how bad it is and always was. Part of the solution of course, involves immediately investigating and prosecuting these cowardly bad cops, instead of trying to cover up the shootings. But it also involves new training and breeding a whole new non-racist culture among entire police forces. It isn't just the cops who are racist. Racism permeates throughout the entire system like a cancer from the top down.

But what's problem? Is it that he's a racist? Or that he's not educated in racism? I've been arguing for months that some white collar dude who commits some fax pas is more likely ignorant of his privilege than he is an outright racist. This refusal of you guys to make any distinctions or at least recognize that there are varying degrees of racism is why we have Trump right now. People who don't consider themselves racist are sick to death of ppl like Fly calling them racists.

It's my understanding that the wage gap between blacks and whites has never been worse (another failure of the Obama era if you ask me). However, I'm more concerned with the disparity of education and opportunity between blacks and whites. A white kid growing up in an affluent neighborhood will receive much better schooling than a black kid growing up in an impoverished neighborhood. I have black colleagues who grew up in affluent or even moderate income areas who have very successful careers and make very good money. But minorities in impoverished areas have much less of a chance. The problem needs to be addressed well before a minority reaches working age. I honestly haven't researched the wage gap by industry/career. I'd be interested to know if black software engineers make considerably less than white software engineers, etc. Or if I black UPS driver makes less than his white counterpart. I know the wage gap between men and women by industry is negligible even though woman make .70 cents on the dollar compared to men overall. The problem is not wage discrimination, but that they're just not brought up to enter or have interest in these fields. With minorities, the problem is likely that they don't have access to the resources to become educated in these fields.

It's worse than that. A black person driving the speed limit in a brand new Lexus is more likely to be pulled over than a white guy Pontiac who is speeding because I guess a black man in a new Lexus is suspicious. THAT'S RACISM!

But if someone were to cut in line in front of a black person, people here would scream that he's racist! Whereas, I would just assume it's just a jerk. This is why I contend I'm nowhere near as racist as most here who immediately scream racist anytime their poor sensibilities are offended. I view all minorities as being equal to myslef and don't jump to racial conclusions at every incident. Yes, racism is alive and well and there is much progress still to be made. But you just can't default to calling everyone a racist just because a recipient happens to be a black or brown person. That in itself is racism! It requires that you started from a point which looks down on that person and their race.

I jumped in when someone called Trump a racist for raising the birther movement. He might be a huge racist for all I know, but I have no reason to believe his birther rhetoric was motivated by racism. He's an opportunist. A blowhard. A con man who would use any trick available to gain attention. The more outrageous the better. This is a guy who discredited McCain (a white man) as a war hero. Stood back and encouraged his supporters when they'd chant "Lock her up" (a white woman) at his rallies. I see no evidence to reveal that Trump's entry into the birther movement was anything more than a despicable human being who would do or say anything to gain attention, become relevant and front page news.

I agree 100% with this. My argument is you are NOT creating inclusion by crying foul or shouting down unintended racist views. You are only increasing the gap. You are putting down minorities as though they can't fend for themselves against some white bread co-worker who unintentionally insults them, while pushing those who might simply disagree with the naming of the BLM movement further away out of spite.

Excellent point. Because if you do, they leave the game. And that's exactly what many people with good intentions towards eliminating racism did when people like Fly wouldn't stop screaming that they're still racists. They said **** you and left the game. Now we have Trump. Thanks Fly!

Bunch of dems buying tickets and waving the flags: weak troll.
Few guys getting in and passing out flags for idiots to wave: elite troll.

Although it will have no effect on anything important, I still enjoy that they pulled of the latter (if that's actually what it was).

Wait Lestat, the point about not berating fish is that they'll leave and/or learn and get better, not burn the casino down with you inside it.

That is F'ing hilarious if someone handed out Russian flags and they didn't know what it was. Too bad someone didn't hand it to Trump and let him wave it proudly when the camera was on.

Apparently **** just got real for some of the Indians I work with. Wait - you mean just being brown-skinned is enough? That's right guys - I'm not posting annoying **** on FB 10x/day for me. I'm white, I'll probably still be ok when the next major terrorist attack comes and heir Trump fans the flames instead of telling everyone to calm down.

The guy who recently quit to take a job in NC might not be so thrilled right now with his decision.

fyp sigh

Haha remember back in the day? Good times.

Remember POTUS also said you can buy drugs at the same price as candy bars.

Hope the "fake news" ask him about this!

If he sees that he might just nuke Mosul.

yes this was pretty good

The Trump voter market seems pretty ripe, pretty tempted to buy up 5 or 6 domains and market a bunch of MAGA hillbilly crap. I can write copy for imbeciles. And donate some proceeds to Dems

First US tourism declines because we're not seen as friendly to people from other countries. Now, here comes the brain drain when talented scientists and engineers no longer want to risk living here if they have brown skin.

MAGA

It was really stupid for that guy and the wapo to leak this. Just made tillerson make the ship tighter and we gained nothing for it. Media should do what trump wants; tell him the leaker is Bannon. That would require intelligence none of them have though. They're still trying to protect their old way that's dead instead of adjusting to the new.

That pisses me off like almost nothing else. Guys come to the US bringing some actual needed skills and contributes, and this happens. Plus they're Indians, who the hell hates Indians.

Meanwhile the shooter is a 51-year-old "desktop support specialist" which most likely means a low-skilled $12/hr job that contributes next to nothing.

$12/hr in KS? LOL I think you mean $7.25.
