I'm thinking the Ford Foundation has more to do with managing the Ford family fortune than Corporate automaker operations. When you got that much, you give away a percentage or taxman gonna slit your throat.

BLM is controlled opposition. They are actually working for the government and not against it.

White people see mobs of black criminals blocking roads and come to the conclusion that the left is unreasonable

My tolerance is running out!!

I never cared what color you were until you started blaming me for your problems.

I never cared about your political affiliation until you started to condemn me for mine.

I never cared where you were from until you began condemning people based on where they were from.

I have never cared if you were well off or poor because I've been both. Until you started calling me names for working hard and bettering myself.

I've never cared if your beliefs are different than mine. Until you said my beliefs are wrong.

I've never cared about your beliefs until you wanted to kill me if I did not adopt your beliefs.

I've never cared what a 2% group did until they started to tell the 98% what they must do.



Now. I've given all the tolerance I am willing to give. Your unusualness is your problem! You need to adapt to living with the 98%.
You have had 155 years of ” FREEDOM ”. Trillions of $$$ of hard-earned taxpayer money has been spent on you and NONE of my ancestors have had slaves.

I am in the 98% and have no need to change my behavior or my opinion to make you happy. In fact, …….. I will not do so!

I will tell you, "you are out of step and wrong". I have every right to do that and I am not guilty of anything for telling you these things.

I still have freedom of speech. I have been too patient.

Now,…… I'm out of patience!!!

Great words but being cynical they're kinda useless if people don't stand up and/or shout down those who bash or try to dismiss the 98%. I mean we're living in a time when a mere 13.3% of the USA's population are being bowed down to out of some stupid and extremely misplaced "guilt" over society's supposed systemic problems. I say if that 13.3% did NOT represent so much negative action, if the 95% of that 13.3% stood up against their own "communities" then we might have a less contentious or confrontational life for all of us.
