(As a granola eating, pilates reforming, Massachusetts living, gay wedding attending, LIBERAL\/PROGRESSIVE, I feel like one of us had to say that to you)&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>But second off, lets STOP being gentle for white peoples feelings.<\/p>\n<p>Since the inception of this country is has been WHITE PEOPLE vilifying everyone else, unjustifiably, and calling it something different.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Its the reason that American was &#8220;discovered&#8221; and the pilgrims aren&#8217;t vilified as the scared, murderous thugs they should be called.<\/li>\n<li>Its the reason there is a debate about &#8220;States Rights'&#8221; when we all KNOW the civil war was fought over the right to keep slaves, the southern state&#8217;s rights to keep slaves.<\/li>\n<li>Its the reason why if there is any type of terrorist attack by a brown person, some well known Muslim person has to come out and condemn there actions..<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>BECASUE WHITE PEOPLE LOVE VILLIFYING WHOLE GROUPS OF PEOPLE<\/p>\n<p>White people throughout the history of this great nation have only gotten very rich, profitable and successful, by MASS VILIFYING people who do not look like them.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll also point out &#8211; the people who were holding the guns and shooting, their faces weren&#8217;t shown, so no one KNOWS they were white. They could have been OTHER AMERICAN MEXICANS shooting them &#8211; the point of the segment was that these people both believe in &#8220;Christ&#8221;, so lets explore the different forms Christ takes and what &#8220;Christ&#8221; actually means to each incarnation of &#8220;Jesus&#8221;&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>(And on a personal not note meant to be read or consumed outside of You, the hosts eyes, I feel this is reason there is 60+ violently racist old white men still kicking around these united states, voting for Donald Trump, because instead of white people saying at the dinner table &#8220;No grandpa, that is not true of black people (brown people, Mexicans etc) and I&#8217;m not going to allow you to say that about people at this dinner table\/around my children etc..&#8221; that things have gotten this bad.<\/p>\n<p>For whatever reason my Grandmother hated Puerto Ricans, but whenever she said something racist my parents CHECKED HER HARD by saying, that&#8217;s not true and I&#8217;m not going to allow you to say that. You&#8217;ll need to leave if you are going to continue to talk about our neighbors like that&#8230;white people just say &#8220;Oh grandpa is so silly&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>WHEW..I&#8217;m done, I&#8217;m done!
