Shot in the Dark

Northern Man

Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:

Went to a birthday party this weekend, turns out it was a Klan rally.  Everyone was talking about how much they hate Black voters, how stupid they are,  what their favorite media person called them and how best to undermine their success.  I didn’t know what to say to fit in so I smiled a lot and left early.

Oh wait,  did I say Klan?  Sorry.  I meant Democrat.   It was Trump voters they hated.  Hard to tell the difference when they take their robes off.

The most gleefully racist person I ever personally met was a DFL organizer from the East Side.  No, I don’t transfer his behavior to all DFLers – but if I did, boy, would I think DFLers were racists.

Still, you get some urban progressives talking about Republicans, and it’s hard to use a term other than “bigotry”.

    Although I don’t want to paint all Democrats as racisssss either, I have to say that six of the biggest racists that I know, are die hard party loyalists and, of course, Trump haters.

    In my experience, I have found Democrats to be what I like to call “covert racists”. They will associate with Black people, shaking hands and doing a lot of back slapping, but run to the rest room to scrub their hands.

    Refusing to support Trump is not the same as embracing the Democratic party as it stands now.

    Refusing to support Trump

    Emery, the subject is “Trump voters”. You know, those relatives, friends, acquaintances, and neighbors who are seemingly deemed “sub-human” by the leftists for daring to exercise their rights as citizens and not vote to coronate elect Hillary.

    Emery, maybe, just maybe, try to stay on topic, that topic being that many on the left are saying things about Trump supporters that would be completely out of line about any racial, ethnic, or religious group? Is that too much to ask?

    Emery, you keep wanting statism to “work” via “sensible” politicians. Give it up.

    Emery,
    every example of statism that’s popped up in the last century has proved that statism works exactly as designed and in most cases the implementation has adhered strictly to spec.
    give up the magical thinking and embrace the Democrat/Progressive party as the ne plus ultra of statism that you so fervently desire

    I’d be better off telling my wife I’d spent the night with hookers than I was at a Democrat party.
