The man makes sense, but you will not see his comments on any main stream media, it does not fit their propaganda.

Sorry but he's wrong. First off he wasn't there. Secondly - no one wants to erase history. I'm tired of hearing that narrative from the right. It's just not true. Not one single person is intent to erase history - except the South who are still allied to the romanticized version of the Confederacy. They want to erase history and they want to hold onto the past. No one else. I'm also tired of hearing "the Democratic party created the KKK..." and so on. The parties switched platforms. The Republican Party of today resembles the Dem party of the past and vice versa.
Yes some people want to say "all" white people are white supremacists - and those people are idiots and are a minority. But the other things he mentions - obviously something was reported or said or even he wouldn't know about them. Like the New Black Panther Party and voter intimidation or the riots in Ferguson, etc. Actually a LOT of people blamed Obama for those riots and STILL do. A lot of people are blaming Obama for the white supremacists re-emerging.
When there's an Islamic extremist attack lots of people rush to judgment. In fact, anytime there is a bombing or attack the FIRST suspect is "I bet it was a Muslim." So how is that not a rush to judgment?
There were plenty of voices to condemn any violence or looting on or after Inauguration Day. I saw it even in the mainstream media. What was West or others watching?
I see a lot of "white supremacy is bad but..." and then pointing out other people and trying to just equate it to something else. I see a lot of "yeah neo Nazis are bad but..." that I don't see with any other group. That's disheartening.

SSG Robert Webster - There is NO such thing as "reverse discrimination." Discrimination is discrimination no matter WHO is doing it. It doesn't matter if a white person discriminates someone else or a black person or whoever. ANYONE can discriminate and people do it every day with their prejudices. Every single person on the planet is prejudiced. We all prejudge people.

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - "Yes, and some of us are tired of so-called reverse discrimination, too. Let's talk about discrimination under the civil rights and the Voting Rights Act."
Seems as though you have a problem understanding a simple statement, but then again, I am not surprised.

SSG Robert Webster - No you have a problem reading - there...is...no...such...thing...as...reverse...discrimination. So to even use the words "so-called" is ridiculous. Why even say it?
Thank you for attacking my intelligence with your condescending statement as well. Usually people do that when they have nothing better to say or do.

Interesting a day well thought out comments. Don't necessarily agree with all he says, but does make sense.
