He called two murderers thugs, so what. The political relevance of the story is a politician (Mayor) was killed by two black guys. One of which was just released from prison last week. The discussion around prisons alone can be a hot button political issue for both sides. From the perception of systemic racism to bleeding heart activist liberal judges who let violent criminals off of the hook.Gwb writes a thread called thug to highlight the killers were black but produces no thoughts himself on why that fact is relevant or why he’s posting the article in the first place. So everyone wastes time trying to figure it out and then he can claim deniability or credibility based on the other posters conclusions.
It’s unlikely he would have posted it if the killers were white. It’s unlikely this is anything more than a troll thread and a dog whistle to the actual racists on the board.
A white person can't sneeze without being called trailer trash, racist, kkk, nazi and host of other things.
Two black guys killed a mayor and yet somehow the OP is racist? He was told to take it to stormfront.org for no reason. What explaining was required from him? How many auto-posters/paid posters on here post a link or a cut-and-paste article with nothing to add beyond a thread title???
The Cory Booker School of Acting & Dramatic Racial Reaction Theatrics is played out. If you want to be offended then fine, be offended. You will probably forget about this thread as you move on with your day to later become offended by the racist mailman, the racist clean water in your house (they don't have that in Flint), the racist birds, the racist TV shows, the people at the dog park with dog whistles, the racist pizza delivery driver, the girl scout cookies being sold on the corner...the list is infinite, everything is racist and offensive.
