Only black reporters allowed in Mayoral race event

fair enough, and in being consistent with my view, those churches should also be told they suck.

agreed!
Lucky for me my church would never do anything like that, they also do not discriminate against sexuality either.
 
Doesn't matter the church is the venue :shrug:

If theres some political rule being broken here then that rule is broken cause a church is involved period not who the church is letting in or no.
Good job ignoring the rest though since it doesnt support your fantasy claims . . VERY telling of the hypocrisy in YOUR posts lol
My claim is the hypocrisy. Liberals would cry up a storm if there was a whites only sign. Church or not.

Yes i understand your fantasy claim and made up strawman but the reality is it has already happened in the other directions and individuals from both sides have shown their hypocrisy and its isnt based on a side and you ignoring reality is the the only factual hypocrisy in this thread so far
 
That incident is a clear cut case of racial discrimination. That is beyond dispute. The dictionary defines racial discrimination as an act of "Racism". That is also beyond dispute.

So why are you being dishonest?

When someone has to resort to dishonesty in order to justify or prop up their beliefs, then their beliefs are obviously flawed.

Don't start assuming my beliefs... I have not stated anything about this being right or wrong, I am merely being objective here.

Do you believe in racial equality?

I don't believe that it will ever happen...

Do you support racial discrimination?

Why does that matter to the facts of the situation?

Only a person with flawed or dishonest beliefs would refuse to answer such basic questions.

Incorrect... your statement is known as a False Dilemma.
 
The definition I provided applies to what happened at that church.

They engaged in "racial discrimination" by denying reporters of certain races access to the meeting, which is the definition of "racism".

What I don't understand is how anyone can argue that fact.


consider the source
 
Based on your description of what took place, you are absolutely correct.... But when you include the rest of what happened, it is the dictionary definition of racism.

That of course being this little tid-bit:

View attachment 67253913

You do understand what press means, correct? Because they were also banning black media reporters from attending...
 
There's simply no reason to try to talk anu sense into your head, it doesn't want to be there. That Baptist Church could have banned all gays, all women that weren't a #10, all Asians, all transgenders, all people with red hair and any reporter that had any of those characteristics or traits. It was a private caucus under the roof of a private facility.

BTW, They did not ban black reporters.

Never said they did not have the right or broke any laws but it was clearly racist, like a "colored only" sign was.
 
bigoted discrimination. It's bigoted discrimination. just as bad, really.


can the church legally do this? I guess so... do they absolutely deserve a bunch of shame for it, that, were the colors reversed, the left would slam upon them... absolutely.

see its the hypocrisy involved in the MSM and leftists reactions that bother me, not some stupid nothing church segregating reporters based on their bigoted views.

there is no justice about this subject with hypocrisy involved, not really.

Good post... I agree.



you said black conservatives....NOT conservatives. You are losing badly. This is what happens when your argument is based on lies. If you meant conservatives why did you say black conservatives? Is there a difference in your eyes between them? Well the answer is yes because you said "black conservatives" not conservatives. Please explain the difference between a black conservative and a conservative. I'm enjoying this.

No, I said "conservatives" and "black conservatives". Speaking of lying...
 
There is a story.

What would blacks say if a church had white candidates in it and said whites only?

What would the news cycle be like?

Such hypocrisy cannot go unchecked, and everyone who supports it is a racist, while crying racism should whites do the same... Think about it.

They would claim racism but it would not be accurate... and the black TV and Internet News reporters were also banned here.
 
Never said they did not have the right or broke any laws but it was clearly racist, like a "colored only" sign was.

Not even close. 'Colored Only' was for ALL people of color, not just reporters. 'Colored Only' was the law in public places like restaurants, public buses, train stations, public swimming pools, public water fountains and SCHOOLS! And if anyone dared to break the rules, they got their heads broken if not worse. There is no comparison, not even close. This was a PRIVATE Baptist Church.

Then you are part of the problem.

So you are saying that I can't call a men's group only to discuss male centered issues?

That if I do this that I and those that attend are sexist?

This is for a public election. Not some private activity.

Irrelevant.

Politicians go to private lodges and clubs were there are members only and campaign contributors, etc.

It was discrimination...
 
Good post... I agree.

Yes speaking of lying...Here is exactly what you said.
"I bet if they had denied black conservatives in, but allowed black liberals, you would also think that that was racist..."
Here is what you claimed to have said. A straight up lie.
"No, I said "conservatives"*and*"black conservatives"
 
Hello mcfly...discrimination based on skin color is the textbook definition of racism.

So the NAACP and Congressional Black Caucus... textbook racism?

I've taken a lot of sociology classes and I never saw that in a textbook or journal article or book. Do you have a citation for the NAACP declared racist?

You're busting out the "sieg heil". Who do you think you're fooling?

In this thread with you I indeed made a mistake. Instead of "conservative" and "black conservative" I said:

"Black conservative" and "Black Liberal"... in that context denying a black conservative instead of a black liberal, it would not be about race.

To a different poster I said "conservative" and "black conservative"
 
Hello mcfly...discrimination based on skin color is the textbook definition of racism.

Nope. Superiority over the other race is an integral component...
 
Yes thats exactly what discrimination over skin color is.

No it isn't... all they are merely doing is limiting who they want in there... there is nothing about whites or Asians or Hispanics or black media being inferior.
