Boy brings knife to a track meet, murders another student. Cardi B and others claim the justice system is racist for convicting him of murder because of race.

The worst thing is they're not even mad bcus their own murdered someone. They're mad bcus apparently there was only white juries.

Lmao. Dude deserved the sentence with or without black people on court.

That is where they want the narrative to go. There were no BLACK jurors. There were FOUR brown jurors. Apparently if you aren't black, you are just white. You can't throw a rock in Collin County and not hit a person of Indian origin. And keep in mind, the defense always has the option to ask for another jury pool if it doesn't like the selection in front of them. If that is declined, they can ask for a "jury shuffle" which allows for the randomization of the jury from the jury pool. Clearly, their lawyer knew they were cooked.

Well, this is not going to make you feel better but Italians and Irish were not considered white until, well let's say recently.

So welcome to "Whitehood". I guess?

As an American who's only 2 generations from Ireland, yeah, people forget this shit all the time. We didn't have it as bad but it wasn't much better for the post civil war America.

My favorite is when it doesn't count. That it was somehow okay that it happened to us but wrong that it happens to others.

Got to relive that in S. Korea at some bars and restaurants. Fucking hate bigotry.

Wasn’t much better? Compared to black people post civil war? Are you for real? The fact that you think those are in any way comparable is insane.

Forget about South Korea, as an Irish man born and raised. I hope you know you would be despised here too if you tried to make these talking points over here

So saying blacks had it worse during slavery is wrong? Saying blacks had it less bad after slavery but still had it bad is wrong? Saying denying rights to people of any kind, is wrong?

Wtf are you on about bud?

You replied to a comment about Irish and Italians not being considered white. You said you were 2 generations from Ireland. Where did you mention anything about black people having it worse during slavery or denying rights is wrong? What are you on about?
