Rep John Lewis doesn’t just think Trump supporters are “ignorant of history and uncaring”, he also claims to be privy to their extra-curricular activities.
His remarks at the Congressional Black Caucus Town Hall on Civil Rights were beyond inflammatory and racist. But, of even further interest is his (presumably) unwitting suggestion that the civil rights movement in the 60s were not all they appeared to be on the surface.
Lewis always brings up the past in his speeches. That is his claim to fame – he marched with MLK.
However, if his remarks on the next page are to be taken at face-value and analyzed through the lens of logic, not liberalism – Lewis may have very well destroyed the entire basis for his career.
Continue to the next page to read Lewis’s recent remarks attacking Trump supporters at the 2017 Congressional Black Caucus Town Hall on Civil Rights.
You have to realize that he is a racist. He wants to ban and condemn “white sheets” but he supports and praises” black masks and hoods”.
Showing your nasty hate fulled racism again are ya. Just another lowlife racist placing blame where it doesnt belong.
Another uneducated idiot!
I guess he forgot who’s wearing hoods today, its the violent wing of the democRat party.
Let’s see, it was the Democrats who started that whole white hood, and white sheet thing. And they still are doing it in one form or another. They use welfare now to make slaves of much of the Black population and destroyed the family unit by throwing money at single women not to have men living in the household. Shame on you. You have done your best to turn Blacks into second class citizens and then promote hatred on top of that. Shame on you. You neglect to tell them that some of the first Representatives in Congress were Black and that they weren’t Democrats. The first battle of the Revolution blacks and whites fought side by side to defend this country and the first casualty of war was a Black man who gave his life for this country. Yes, there was slavery but that was the way of the world and the Constitution paved the way to end it in this country unlike in Africa and the Middle East where there still is slavery today. But economic slavery is still slavery and your party promotes it still. Shame on you.
Sorry. You are confused. No Republican wore a white hood. That was your own political party.
Shut you mouth, you guys got your way. Give them an inch they take a yard. You destroyed the south it’s history. So shut up, msbey we can heal and have unity. This is like beating an old horse.
