Trump fails to denounce white supremists

[chuckChuck]

The US is divided and it's scary, what these groups have done is terrible. I do find it interesting that with the black Lives Matter campaign riots, fights and vandalism everyone let's it slide and says very little to condemn there actions yet a few white boys get together and everyone jumps on them, calls them racists etc. ( which to be clear they are but so are the black fellas)

Problem I see is its gonna come here too, as a white man I do recognize the advantages I've had in life. But I see resentment building towards all the special interest groups. The immigrants that don't learn canadian values and language, the quotas for minorities in the workplace, the gay pride groups, even east vs west etc. Lots of issues that each cause a bit of friction get compounded until somebody blows. Hope I'm wrong but I see problems a brewing.

A few white boys getting together? Nothing like a little understatement! When white men wearing white robes get to together to express their superiority over every other race that is not just a social event.

By the tone of the responses and lack of criticism of Trumps muted response it is obvious there is Underlying support on Agriville for white nationalism here if not outright racism.

Did our fellow countryman not sacrifice their lives in previous wars to stomp out this kind of thinking?

And it is not just Democrats it is also Republicans who are wondering why their President is not condemning the white supremists.

White nationalism... I hate that term.


English Scottish French Irish German Polish Russian Norwegian, Finish, Icelandic, Swedish, Spanish, Portugesse, Greek, Swiss, Austrian, Hungarian... the list goes on... These are all "whites".

There is nothing wrong with national pride.

What is wrong is the stupidity of race wars... I Posted this on my Facebook earlier... I'll repeat it here:

WWIII won't be between Nato and Russia or China or North Korea.

WWIII Will be a civil war in western nation's because, apparently, people who have enjoyed the greatest time of peace technology prosperity and freedom can't effing get along.

Let's get real folks. Your sex, your sexual identity, your skin color, your race, and your ethnicity should have nothing to do with equality or freedoms... Everyone should have the same basic human rights. Now let's quit f**king up the best thing to happen in the history of humanity with stupid political squabbles and superiority complexes.

Did you not listen to Trump. He denounced EVERYONE on all sides, doesn't that mean the KKK too.

The Kahdr case and growing support for white supremists groups and a President who is encouraging them are two very different issues.

My position on Kahdr has always been that he was a child soldier and should have never been sent to Gitmo. The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that his constitutional rights had been violated. He would have never been convicted of murder under Canadian law. Abusing and torturing child soldiers outside of the Geneva Convention to extract confessions doesn't cut it under Canadian law.

If previous governments had followed Canadian law there would have been no payout.

Retired General Romeo Dallaire has said as much.

Cretien Martin had no problem with gitmo....kahdr should still be there. The Supreme Court of Canada isn't elected is what the govt wishes to impose on the people. There zero accountability with those dip shits

By not coming out and condemning the KKK and Nazis and only speaking against the violence on "both sides" Trump is effectively saying it is okay in USA to promote fascist and racist views. That it is not a problem for him.

you would have to be ignorant of the relatively recent history of segregation and violence against blacks in the US for this not be a big issue. Not to mention that the US was built on the backs of slaves and slavery.

Trump will set back the US in so many ways by failing to deal with this issue. But hey he campaigned on hate, blame and dividing the country so what did we expect.

Not sure if i should tell someone to f off or maybe i should just f off myself. Geez.... what crap on here sometimes.

Similar. Listened briefly to some interview on CBC. Noticed the catchword "disadvantaged' being used a lot and being applied to everyone who was poor or you name it.
Last time i watched a poker game didnt see anybody getting hugged for a 'disadvantaged' hand.
You play the one your dealt.

Hard times create tough men.
Tough men create good times.
Good times create weak men.
Weak men create hard times.


Which damn phase you think were in?????
Watching my tough as nails mother slowly dying and then putting up with pusses on here...
Guess I'll f off now.

This may be news to you but the Supreme Court doesn't make the laws. It is the members of parliament elected by all Canadians who make the laws of the land and it is up to the Supreme Court to make sure they are followed.

So your arguments about accountability are irrelevant.

[blackpowder]

Sorry.
But you get a D in US history chuck. You must be 'disadvantaged' somehow.
Hopefully you're not writing curriculum!!
