Oh lord, seriously.

I feel very much like you are trolling me, so unless you come back with real arguments (claim, warrant, backing) I am probably done no matter what invectives you throw at me.

I was off topic? I asked you to engage in an evidence-based debate on your very first claim in the very first response and I am the one who lost my way? I love how you make your insults acceptable but bristle at mine.

Structurally racist policies…hmmm Voter Suppression, Mandatory Minimums, calls to respect law and order after police shootings, rolling back all Obama era DOJ responses and investigations of law enforcement, calling for the NFL to discipline black players, doubling down on the drug war, virtually everything HUD has done sine Ben Carson took control, virtually every immigration policy, supporting mass incarceration, supporting the militarization of the police, rolling back affirmative action policies directed at structural racism, I could probably come up with at least ten more.

Again, I would be more than willing to have an evidenced debate on ANY of these.

Some more books you might consider before responding (I already suggested American Apartheid)…When Affirmative Action Was White, The Color of Law, Locked In.

Stop being paternalistic and playing games, if you want to have a real discussion of race, based in evidence, no problem. If not, you have every right to your opinion and we can agree to disagree.

Please desist this discussion unless you plan to engage authentically.

If you are engaging authentically, please stop being rude, my response was ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF PROTECTING FREE SPEECH (how the heck does that make me the PC police?)

I did not say you had no right to say what you were saying, or that you should stop talking, or that you don’t deserve your right to believe what you believe. I said that I personally am only interested in civil discussion.

Thanks again, hope you are having a nice day (sincerely)

If you are just trolling, please find someone else to troll, if you think about it, my response was defending your point of view (even if for reasons that you don’t agree with).
