1.  The social conservative southern racist democrats from the past are now a part of the Republican.  The old democratic south is not staunch Republican territory. party. http://factmyth.com/factoids/democrats-and-republicans-switched-platforms/

2.  I can't tell if he is against strong drug laws or in favor of them because he seems to switch back and forth, but Barack Obama was the one who signed the "Fair Sentencing Act" that removed the large disparity between penalties for powder cocaine (whites choice) and crack (blacks choice)

3.  Barack Obama was never anti-police.  That is just right wing rhetoric.  I can post multiple quotes by him to prove this and he never supported any anti-police legislation.

4.  The African American community benefitted greatly from the ACA act and they will suffer more than whites as it is dismantled by Donald Trumps administration.

5.  Obama signed an executive order increasing aid to HBCU's by $850 million over ten years.  That is much more than Trump has done for HBCUs

6.  Panned parenthood does much more than promote abortion.  That is by far the most ignorant comment he makes. Planned Parenthood provides all sorts of reproductive health care and will even provide referrals to adoption agencies for women who want to have their babies but can't afford to raise them.  Planned Parenthood aids poor women so of course they are going to be in poor neighborhoods.  And unplanned children are one of the biggest causes of remaining in poverty.

7.  More minorities came off of public assistance during the Clinton administration than during any other time in history.

8.  The unemployment rate for blacks dropped more under Obama than under Trump.


The lesson here is not to tell people to do research when you don't have a clue what you are talking about.  And I have saved the best one for last.  Here is the story of the "Award" Trump was supposed to have won from the NAACP

A photograph of Donald Trump, Muhammad Ali and Rosa Parks that the founder of Trump’s “diversity coalition” hailed as evidence the Republican nominee won an “NAACP medal” for “helping America’s inner cities” was actually taken at an awards ceremony organized by a business associate with an ethnic grievance.

William Fugazy, a politically well-connected businessman who later pleaded guilty to perjury, gave the awards to Trump and 79 other people, most of them white, to protest the awarding of “medals of liberty” to a group of 12 recent immigrants that included a Chinese-born architect, a Costa Rica-born astronaut, a leading expert on the psychology of race, and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, but no “Irish, Italian, or Polish” people.

The NAACP has not awarded any medals to Trump for “helping America’s inner cities,”. Nor have any other civil rights groups, according to Trump’s biographers.

Basically this guys sounds EXACTLY the type of person who was influenced by Russian propaganda.  His "research" seems to be limited to lies posted on facebook.  He certainly did not consult in legitimate sources for all this BS.







 

fredtoast, I truly believe that you are the textbook definition of SJW.    

Good luck to you, in all of your future endeavors.  As I'm sure in your job, where you live, you are forced to represent many deplorable people who likely don't agree with some, or most of your political views.  However, I'm sure that they find your teachings enlightening.
