I'm still waiting for the Communists to explain why Abraham Lincoln didn't go to the funeral of Stonewall Jackson?

I mean, if going to funerals who of those who hated you and waged war against you is required as the Communists claim, what was up with Abe?

There was no war involved and jackson went to war to preserve slavery.
 
Karen describes white women who call the cops over incredibly minute things or as an act of aggression against mostly black people. Karens are like people who do swatting.

So then, "Karen" is to whites as "Sambo" is to blacks?

Thanks for clarifying. :thup:
 
It's the Communists, the democrats who demand that all white people are racist. I find a lot of democrats to be mentally ill.

I mean, based on what Communists say, it appears they hate their spouses, parents, siblings, and children. But mostly, democrats appear to hate themselves - and life.

Hate is all there is with democrats. The party is one of hatred, bigotry, and racism.
Your post has to be one of the most bizarre analysis of anything I've ever read in this Forum. You called me mentally it. You called me a racist. You called Dems bigots, racists and full of hate. Naturally, you provide zero proof - because of course it's pure BS and there isn't any evidence nor is there any evidence that Republicans are what you describe in Dems because it's pure hatred on YOUR part (not Republicans, Dems). Your post, sadly seems to describe yourself.

One thing we do know that is indisputable is that Trump IS mentally ill, a compulsive, pathological liar who's entire campaign is hate based.

PROFILE: Dr. Bandy Lee and the psychiatric case against Donald Trump

"Since the 2016 election, Lee has spearheaded a movement to shed light on what she believes is the dangerous mental condition of the president. She has organized a coalition of mental health experts similarly concerned with the president’s mental state, and in October 2017, she published “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump,” a book of essays by numerous mental health professionals assessing the president’s mental aptitude."

I do realize you "get off" on hating me and others in this Forum and that you're inspired by Trump and his hatred / mental illnesses but my God man, this post your wrote is over the top and really shows who you are.
 
There is a VERY real chance the democrats at the funeral would have attempted violence against the president.

democrats across the nation are murdering, looting, raping, and burning. While the real target of democrats is to destroy America and the Constitution, the focal point of the seething hatred of democrats is the president. It wouldn't be surprising for a democrat to seek to be a martyr by attacking the object of Communist insanity.

Posts like this one are so over the top I realize that disputing / debating against you is pointless. Violence against Trump at Lewis' funeral? You've shown all of us who you are...true colors...

Oh, another democrat scholar.

So, Thomas Jackson had a plantation with thousands of slaves that he personally hunted from their technologically advanced paradise of Wakanda?

:2razz:


Thomas Jackson was a deeply Christian man who described slavery as "an abomination in the sight of the lord" and never owned slaves in his life. When commissioned as a general in the Virginia Regulars, the army tried to give him a slave who he instantly freed and gave leave to - in fact the man stayed with Jackson unto his death.

democrats cannot learn - bigotry and hate fill the recesses of the minds of democrats and leave no room for knowledge.

But should a lurker become curious..

I didn't call you anything.

I provided facts that are heavily cited with examples from high profile Communists/democrats.

The vile and shameful democrat party is openly racist and spews hatred against white people. The Communist leaders urinate on the 14th Amendment and push institutional racism in law;

{Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is proposing a segregated coronavirus relief package that would exclude white Americans impacted by the economic downturn.

Fox News reported Sen. Schumer wants to appropriate $350 billion in funds for minority Americans over a five-year period.

The Economic Justice Act unveiled Thursday by Senate Democrats would “address systemic racism and historic underinvestment in communities of color.”

The proposed legislation says it will offer relief to non-white Americans through “immediate and long-term investments in communities of color.”}

Sen. Schumer Proposes $350 Billion COVID Aid Package, But Not for White People

If you find the actions of the democrats to be uncomfortable - and let's face it, flat out evil - don't be a Communist and you don't need to worry. But the fact is that democrats are waging a race war in their effort to end the United States Constitution.
 
When Trump was asked "why didn't you attend John Lewis' funeral?"

Trump said, "he didn't come to my inauguration."


During this time of racial tension, was skipping John Lewis' funeral the politically savvy thing to do?

Listen my friend no matter what president Trump did there would be one more bitch thread for what ever he did!

John Lewis hated president Trump!


The congressman said that Trump was not a “legitimate” president — even before he was sworn in.
A week before Donald Trump’s inauguration in 2017, Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) laid down his marker: Trump would not be his president, and Lewis would not afford him any of the respect that comes with the office.

“I don’t see this president-elect as a legitimate president,” Lewis said in an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” a week before Trump was sworn into office.

Lewis refused to go to Trump’s inauguration.

And Lewis did this:

Lewis skipped not only George W. Bush’s first inauguration in 2001 because he questioned the legitimacy of that election, he also skipped Bush’s second inauguration in 2005. (In 2005, Lewis also supported the idea of impeaching Bush.)

democrats have spent weeks trying to burn down a federal courthouse in Portland with the federal employees inside. democrats have murdered over 400 people across America with their "peaceful protests," including over a dozen children. democrats have raped 27 people, including a homeless man in CHAZ/CHOP who was accused of eating food meant for the peaceful rioters. democrats have engaged in arson against 294 buildings, mostly small businesses. Leaving Mogadishu (formerly Minnesota) a smoldering heap.

democrats attack elderly women in the streets , throwing them into fire hydrants.

Randomly attacked 92-year-old woman now terrified, no longer feels safe in NYC - YouTube

democrats attacks clerks inside of Macy's (for being white)

Man who filmed Macy's beatdown of white man says attack was 'instinct'

democrats are violent and engaged in a civil war against America. Yes, it is LIKELY democrats would attack the president - democrats attack random and innocent people across the nation every single day.

What on earth are you posting? The 92 year old woman was attacked by someone - how is it that it was Democrat? You're making all this stuff up with phony stats that you wrote without one link to prove it. This post is bogus. Please do everyone a favor and try not to hate people you've never met nor anything about. I will probably not reply to any of your posts from now on. This post is wildly made-up and only puts you in the spotlight...

The southern strategy :). Jackson was a traitor. Why would a us president attend The funeral of a traitor?

I cite what I claim. democrats are in open insurrection and are attacking people across the nation.

democrats are vicious, violent animals who are engaged in a war against America.

There is no way to deny it.
 
Ohh look, racist stereotypes and epithets.

How very democrat.

Nothing racist at all in there. And do tell us about the 'real' chance that 'the democrats' would have attempted violence against the president at a state funeral for a civil rights icon. Surely there's citation for that - and not from your Facebook friends.

Till then the president has given us his reason: 'He didn't come to my inauguration'. It was rank pettiness, nothing more.

Go back and look at the thread title

Stop purposely taking the President out of context. He was explaining why he hadn’t spent much time with John Lewis.

Why didn’t Obama attend Justice Scalia’s funeral? Did that bother you? Or does it only bother you when people refuse to acknowledge a liberal as a hero?

First don't worry what you think 'bothers' me. I am not interested in your personal interests and you can leave what you think of me out of it and discuss the topic.

To answer, it doesn't 'bother' me at all that Trump didn't attend the funeral or that Obama didn't attend one. That's not the point I'm trying to make. We can probably all agree that the funeral was better without him and that he was better off without it. Would have made small difference to his popularity as I said and he would have been disinterested in any case.

It does concern me that the president can be so petty as to state he had a personal feud with a civil rights leader, suggesting that's why he didn't attend. Don't pretend it was 'out of context,' that was literally his response to the question of how history would remember Lewis. He could have answered anything but instead made it personal - he said Lewis "should have come" to his inauguration. The president revealed he had an ugly soul.

Why do you ignore when a poster answers your question about Scalia? Why?

Lol why do some of you seriously think that when I ask that question, I'm asking for your expertise. :mrgreen:

It is a rhetorical question.

Let me phrase it in more direct, liberalspeak...

Obama did not attend Scalia's funeral, because he was trying to make a political statement, either that a liberal did not have to respect a conservative hero, or even, possibly, that a black man does not need to succomb to pressure to attend a white man's funeral.

This entire thread implies that Trump did not take political advantage of the fact that he could have been seen attending the funeral of a liberal black hero. Guess what? Trump does not have to acknowledge the fact that someone who tried to ruin his life is seen, by some, as a liberal hero.

And, again, on top of all this, it was not safe.
