    I'm not saying it's widespread. I'm only stating that this woman is saying it wasn't an isolated incident.

    Your claim that they did for safety falls flat on its face the minute she was fired.

    My point is spot on given the same circumstances if the race and roles were reversed the crimes of racism would be heard round the world.

    I have to concede that was somewhat skeptical when I read the original post. I should have read the other posts in the thread specifically the one with the link to the CNN article confirming the story posting my reply. Still no credible evidence that discrimination based on yard signs was systemic and speaking only for myself I'm really glad that she was expeditiously terminated.

    Total nonsense. It is ABSOLUTELY 1000% clear from the context that is EXACTLY what this is. People frequently get fired in the hopes it will save someone else's job. Look no further than the football board...lower level coaches and coordinators getting fired to save a head coach's job.

    Sorry man, even some of the left leaning posters don’t agree with your assessment.
    Like I said up thread if it was a white dude suggesting avoiding houses in black neighborhoods with Harris signs the racist charges would be all over the place.

    Now the “supervisor” is claiming it wasn’t just in NC.
    We will see if she has proof. If that pans out what is the excuse then? There weren’t reports (debunked) of armed militia going around in Florida were there?

    Your partisan blinders are on fully here.

    I don't believe this was an official policy from FEMA out of Washington DC but I believe the lady who was fired wasn't the top person who started this policy either.

    I said I understood the safety concern. It wasnt her decision to make though. This thread was started as an accusation there was a conspiracy to persecute conservatives - you know the most victimized group in the world - this thread falls flat.

    I am wondering why you don't believe the former FEMA employee saying this has been happening more than we know about? Do you have any evidence that she is lying? Are you not believing her because it would make previous held belief that FEMA wouldn't do this be wrong? Or is it because politically it makes the Biden/Harris admin look bad?

    Well if that’s what you’re defending(there wasn’t a concerted effort to avoid Trump houses), at this point I’d tend to agree.

    She however didn’t make the suggestion “for safety”.
