If you're afraid or you can't, that's fine.

Not saying I dispute it. It's a ridiculous correlation/causation tweet

The whole point of protesting during the time and place is so people can't look away, you missed the boat on that aspect too. It's like going to a dinner and having black people sitting at the counter back in the 50's and 60's, before drive thru was a thing, forcing people to see them.
It's also worth mentioning that a poll showed that 85℅ of black people approved if the protests, are you saying that they are unAmerican too?


Music has always been a place for protest. Hendrix greatest live performances are widely considered to be Machine Gun at the Filmore East and the Star Spangled banner at Woodstock. In both, he uses his platform to protest Vietnam, I don't think people were complaining about refunds then because he used his guitar to simulate the sound of dropping bombs during the anthem.

If you don't like a musician, or their message simply don't attend their concert, it really is that simple.

A poll is a poll, it doesnt represent the whole black population, polls said Hillary had 92% chances to win, thats 92% of the american population voting for her.
Its not just unAmerican, its unPatriotic, the flag has nothing to do with police brutality, those are stuns to push an agenda.
18 year old brats complaining about confederation statues, does that make any sense? nope.

Trump won and now there are protests because it rains or hurts feelings.

Agreed, if a musician is doing political crap Im out, no matter if its Jimi, Satriani or The Beatles.
They play music to entertain, most of them didnt finish high school so their opinion has the same value than asking the mail man, plumber, etc.

Taking a knee during the national anthem is disrespecting our flag but honoring Confederate traitors who killed hundreds of thousands of US soldiers fighting for that flag isn't?

btw this is clearly the most scripted, fakest publicity stunt ever. John Legend and Chance are trying to pimp their off the “controversy”, same with Chrissy Tiegen and Kim. I’m sure Kris Jenner is writing the Kardashian episode where they “deal with” his political views.

and all you so called “redpillers” fell for it hook, line, and sinker.

Trump-loving pastor melts down after MSNBC’s Sharpton asks him to name one thing president has done for blacks




Pastor Mark Burns — who memorably was booted off MSNBC’s AM Joy in January — defending rapper Kanye West’s recent flirtation with Trump, it quickly took a turn for the crazy when the Reverend Sharpton asked Burns how the president is helping African-Americans.

even though I don’t fall out with Kanye or Pastor Burns, they should name the policies. If you claim the Democratic Party put blacks in the back of the bus, then they ought to name the policies of Donald Trump what has helped black America.”
“So, show me in any instance where the president has reached out to do anything with black America,” Sharpton added.

Burns and Sharpton engaged in shouting and finger-pointing, while talking over each other as host Witt let it run its course.

2018 logic tbh

...and the Dems love it because they think they are on the same team and everything is justified because it's validated by pop culture.

The Republicans think Kanye is a game changer for the exact same reason.

Republicans voted for a reality TV star.

HOW RED-PILL CULTURE JUMPED THE FENCE AND GOT TO KANYE WEST

"I know kung-fu."

"There is no spoon."

But one of those concepts, written by the Wachowskis and delivered by Laurence Fishburne,

pooled at just the right place

to be lapped up and internalized as a self-valorizing metaphor by the dark, toxic wilds of the proto-alt-right internet:

the red pill.

That sprawling, diffuse community isn't united by much,

but in every corner its members have adopted the idea as their own.

They've turned it into a verb, and

spread it so successfully that to be “red-pilled”

is now widely understood shorthand for having your eyes opened to

a certain kind of “conservatism”—

generally nationalistic,

often white-supremacist, and

nearly always suffused with violent misogyny.

Trump’s Immigration Policy Gets Jobs, Higher Wages for 600 African Americans


President Donald Trump’s enforcement of immigration laws has delivered hundreds of jobs at higher wages to sidelined African Americans in Chicago after a Swiss-owned bakery was penalized for employing roughly 800 illegals.

Ed French, owner of Elgin-based Metro Staff Inc., says his company became the main provider of [replacement] workers for the bakery and that about 80 percent of them are black. According to French … wages [are] up by about 25 cents an hour, to just above minimum wage.He says everyone hired through his company is permitted to work in the country and has passed a background check and drug test.

According to a former consultant to the bakery, MSI paid the black workers $14 an hour, versus the $10 an hour the Mexican workers were making through Labor Network.

Nobody will work those jobs

You can't be pro illegal and pro black American.

It's absurd that he thinks that the Americans just wouldn't eat fruit if we didn't have illegals.

600 jobs for black Americans in the Chicago area just by getting rid of illegals in one single company. Meanwhile, the democrats try protect those illegals with muh safe havens and pretend that they have the interests of black Americans in mind. Damn shame.

Sadly this is the last gasp in a debate for most of them. I've heard it a hundred times.

He must have missed Reagan.

Your broke ass won't be able to afford them, that's for sure
