The claim that that incident proves he's a racist seems just a bit of a stretch. As for as the Rolling Stone piece ... John Fetterman: The Mayor of Hell – Rolling Stone
I didn't suggest that he had a full face covering like a ski mask. Even a hoodie with the drawstrings pulled tight would be enough to partially obstruct the wearers face from a distance. That being said, once Fetterman detained him it was obvious that the guy was black and maybe there was an element of racism. On the other hand, Fetterman did call the police and there sounds may have been gunshots. Just I guess but I think the story is surfacing now to suppress the black vote for Fetterman.
Going with WHAT the tattoo says. Same if someone had a swastika or something racial on their body. I will judge them off of that.
Yeah, I have never chased down a black jogger with a shotgun, but that's just me. You guys enjoy supporting that clown. I would vote for neither. That's the issue with some of you. You people will overlook anything they do since they are on your side. I don't. But back to playing politics.
I would judge him as someone who listened to NIN in the 90s (or the Johnny Cash cover), because they are song lyrics lol
So there is a real American and a fake America. First I guess your talking about the USA as there is no country called America. Actually there are approx 27 countries that are American. If the US constitution is the single source for an understanding in “Who the USA” is; the real USA. That country was founded on white supremacy. Certainly not liberty for all; just a relatively small group as a portion of the whole. Blacks were excluded, Women were excluded; in practice non-Protestants were excluded; Indians were excluded, Asians were effectively excluded and a series of others. US Apartheid existed, even after 600k people died to eliminate our “Originsl Sin” as an institution. This three class world existed up until my lifetime; still does in some parts of the country. So as a % of its existence, this country has had very hard race based laws for 70% of its existence. Hitler called us out for how well designed our race laws were; existed officially till 64’ and effectively till the 70s. The Nazis liked our laws so much they were used as a model for the Nuremberg laws. Up into 1990s; there were laws in Florida restricting Japanese people from owning property in Florida; not enforced but still on the books. So, your fake USA is an inconvenience for people that like to pretend that something wasn’t what it really was. The country you envision as the real USA is a figment of many in this countries imagination.
I'm confident that whatever the reasons are he did that, it wasn't because he had a tattoo with a song lyric on it
Congratulations? .. I guess. While I appreciate your ability to know everything about my thoughts on everyone, I haven't really given any thought to Fetterman. I was just curious about the tattoo, so I went to the Rolling Stone article, then posted it so that there was a little more info than simply the meme that you posted. Also congratulations on staying so incredibly nonpartisan and avoiding any hint of politics. Between that and the fact you've never chased down a black jogger with a shotgun, that's an impressive body of work.
Nope. I have a bat, but i'm against being a racist and chasing down black people because they are out for a jog.
I usually try to leave law abiding citizens alone. But that's just me. Your boy Fetterman on the other hand...
