  1. Black dogs get hit by cars more often too.

    It's Trump's fault.

  4. Yes, but that doesn't fit the current narrative of systemic racism

  5. Yes, and the facts are clear in these demographics (Latinos and Blacks) where high blood pressure and diabetes and obesity (all can be controlled and reduced by diet and life style choices) are prevalent and these conditions are known to be detrimental to ones health and have been recorded contributors to COVID.

  18. NPR NEWS

    Liberal Jews and homosexuals manipulating Blacks to keep the societal turmoil active.

    Jews and homosexuals, who populate the ranks of NPR media, constantly push the agenda of "Blacks as Victims", which lead weak-minded individuals to march, protest, riot, loot, burn.

    Most Blacks apparently still don't understand that they are constantly used and abused by liberal Democrats. They use Blacks as disposable toy soldiers to fight their battles for them.

    Test: How many Black people can you name who've been killed by police? Did you get at least 6 from recent events?
    Ok, now, how many Jewish people can you name who've been killed by police?
    How many homosexuals can you name who've been killed by police?

  19. NPR, CNN, KCUR, MSNBC, etc., etc. -- All Liberal Rags that Are Butthurt that Orange Man President. The Democraps have a warped media helping them destroy America with their social wet dreams and dividing Americans in their sub-groups. Violence, lawlessness, looting, burning, destroying once great American cities, etc. -- nothing is off the table for them to attain power.

  21. ILLNESSES DESCRIMINATE! People are different - sickle cell anemia is ONLY found in blacks. Asian only get a certain type of cancer. People from scandanavia get skin cancer more easily, people in indonesia live 15 years longer than the average american.

    People are different and some are more suceptical to viruses. You can't pass a law and make mother nature and genetics follow it.

  22. Sue the spores for racial discrimination. And while you're at it, sue sickle cell anemia. It is racist too.

    Not every disease affects all the discrete population groups in the same way. The reverse is more often the case.

  24. Most of the Democrapic mayors don't want Trump to come in and save their butts. They're too proud and don't care if their cities are being destroyed. The ones who have accepted his help have much calmer cities now.

    ReplyDelete
  25. ^^and yet it's all happening in Trump's America! Weird.

  26. Idiot mayors will have to take responsibility for their own stupid actions. The exodus from Demonrat shitholes is just the beginning of that bitch slap back to reality.

  28. Another story about Jacob Blake being shot 7 times in the back. He wasn't. He was shot 4 times in the back. He was shot AT 7 times. Yes 1 should be enough. But please don't make it sound worse than it is.

    1. Jacob Blake got exactly what he deserved. He should have been shot by his Baby Mamas father and or for being a complete bigoted idiot. It’s unfortunate he isn’t dead.

  29. Cities are dying because they took on too much bond debt service and union health and pension funding. The taxpayers are left holding the bag. Easiest thing is to leave town.for a healthy suburb. Cities don't have enough money left for basic services. Meanwhile, the Mission Hills moneymen laughed all the way to the bank.

  30. Law enforcement is trained to keep shooting until a threat is no longer existent. That's why police shoot more times then the naive layperson thinks is necessary. It's unbelieveable how many reporters are ignoring this fact. I'm sure some of the liberal media reporters know this, but don't want to let the audience know this is how law enforcement is trained. Officers don't want to shoot once and then have the person stab, shoot or strike and injure or kill them because they didn't shoot enough times.

  31. Blacks and Latinos digestive systems have not adopted to the western diet. So many are fat and diabetic precursors to Corona death. Their minds are also often maladjusted to dealing with western civilization. Liberals like to exploit these issues to fool these people into voting for them as their saviors. Grow a pair and look out for yourself MAGA.
