  1. How racist of you. Don't white lives matter to you?

    What is amazing is how you and others don't seem to care much about the black on black murder rate which is YUGE compared to police murders of black civilians.

    Where is the outrage? Kap is not a genuine cause, if he was real he would focus on what is really important for the black communities and trust me it is not about cops. It's culture. Cultivate the culture and change will be inevitable. Read Peterson's 12 Rules for Life. You might learn something constructive.

    The justice system renders justice when a black person kills another black person,not so when ita a cop murdering a black person and cops should be held to a higher standard but thanks for your racist republican talking point.

  4. That is BS. You know the vast majority of black people killed by cops are not doing what they are told. They are exactly doing what you are promulgating, which is to disrespect cops or do something stupid.

    Kap is a BS cause. But keep enjoying your racists fueled world.

    Half the country thinks Donald Trump is a racist. HALF.


    Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large

    Updated 10:12 AM ET, Wed July 4, 2018

    (CNN)A new Quinnipiac University poll has a striking result: 49% of people said they believe President Donald Trump to be a racist while 47% believe he is not.

    Pause and digest that: Half the country -- HALF -- thinks the elected President of the United States harbors racist views.That's a remarkable finding. Full stop.

    What explains it? No one thing.

    Here are the two most obvious options.

    1. This question, like all questions tied to Trump, is effectively a measure of whether you love or hate the President. So, 86% of Republicans say Trump isn't a racist and 86% of Democrats say he is. Independents, who view Trump slightly more negatively than positively overall, have similar view on whether he is a racist: 50% say he is, 44% say he is not.

    The "racist" numbers are not a direct facsimile of Trump's overall approval numbers, of course. More people feel unfavorably about Trump's job performance (55%) than say he is a racist (49%). But it's close.

    2. Trump has repeatedly played with racist and xenophobic language and sentiments -- from suggesting Mexico is sending rapists and criminals to the United States to arguing the white supremacist violence in Charlottesville was a "both sides" issue to suggesting African-American Rep. Maxine Waters is a "very low IQ individual."
    When you dabble in casual racism -- whether purposely or accidentally (and it's hard to know which one Trump is doing each time), some decent-sized chunk of people are going to believe that you are -- wait for it -- a racist.

    Trump's response to the consistent finding that half the country believes him to be a racist -- Quinnipiac found 49% saying that of Trump back in February -- is to not only insist that he isn't a racist but, in typical Trumpian overstatement, that he is the least racist person in the world.
    A few examples:
    • "No, no, I'm not a racist. I am the least racist person you have ever interviewed, that I can tell you."
    • "Number one, I am the least anti-Semitic person that you've ever seen in your entire life. Number two, racism, the least racist person."
    • "I am the least racist person that you have ever met."
    Actions, of course, speak louder than words. And Trump's actions, at a minimum, raise questions about his views on race.

    Trump may not care about these findings -- which aren't a one-off, but rather a consistent sign that half the country feels this way. Why might he not care? Because 86% of Republicans believe he is not a racist and even higher numbers approve of him. And Trump has run a base-focused presidency from beginning to end.

    Of course, there are some issues that should transcend mere partisan calculation. It is an inarguably bad thing -- no matter which party you identify with -- for one half of the country to think the nation's top elected leader is a racist.
    Trump may not care. But he should. He very much should.
