    the crew should just insert this where they currently have "contributing member" (sic). LOL

    Or that should be used as a band name for some white nationalists who can't play guitar.

    I see #liberalhypocricy is trending hard as a result of this important topic.

    I wonder what the bigger culprit here is: liberal media, or draconian drug laws passed by conservative law makers in the 70s and 80s targeting minorities and pacifists... Imagine how much many of us would have valued education and goal setting without a father in our lives. Kind of sickening that you use this issue to prop up your political agenda while it affects millions of people's lives to this day.

    It should have been obvious, and likely was. These folks were either absolutely clueless, in which case their support for Trump makes perfect sense, or were actively trying to provoke the situation, which also makes perfect sense.

    Was she blind? She couldn't tell within seconds after stepping off the bus that it was an HBCU? Again, either clueless or actively trying to provoke.

    A few days after Nazis and white supremacists provoked a protest that ended up with one of the white supremacists driving his car into a crowd, not a crowd trying to obstruct traffic, but a crowd of peaceful marchers, it does matter.

    This was over the line, but given that she was actively trying to provoke, completely understandable.

    They should have.

    This is America. There are people who are racists and disrespectful. It's unfortunate that black people have more to fear than white people every single time that they walk out of their front door, get behind the wheel of a car, or have any kind of encounter with police and the justice system.

    Something tells me that our president did not get her support a year ago.

    You're actually trying to equate being harassed for intentionally provoking people with rape?

    The false equivalence is palpable.

    They did handle it. They shamed the people who were intentionally provoking them until they left.

    The insulting part was showing up at an HBCU wearing Trump gear less than 200 miles from Charlottesville.

    He didn't insenate [sic] any such thing. He called out the girls for wearing clothing that they likely knew would inflame tensions at an HBCU.

    They didn't, no matter how many times you repeat that lie.

    Or how many more could get an education with the Pell grants that are denied to people convicted of drug "offenses."

    Without the social/political context of what the underlying cause is, it can be as good as useless. Use your brain.

    Asians are a minority; they are "over-represented" according to the NYT. Grow up.

    Asians aren't as heavily affected by the drug war as latinos and blacks. Learn to read, and build your argument based off of what the other person in the discussion is saying.

    Time to stop arguing with these clowns. They will end up on the wrong side of history just like thier forefathers. And thier grandchildren will be quoted saying things like: "No, I'm not that way. But Paw-Paw... Yeah, he was pretty racist."

    I don't have to show garbage posters to know who you're referring to.

    Predictable.

    If you believe what you just wrote, you're truly lost. Moon, your bias has left you with an inability to reason.

    The British really engaged in heavily getting Asians pretty addicted to Opium for 200 years or so. Similar video can be seen at the DEA museum in Pentagon City.

    I don't know what's worst the Soviet/Russian Communism expanding to Asia or this.

    Why would anyone willingly go have lunch at Howard university?
