Juneteenth

Presidents always get the blame and the praise. Was Reagan great or his congress? Was Carter bad or his congress? Bush 1 or 2? Clinton? Obama? Ready to make those same excuses for each?

Willing to bet you arent.

Who is in charge matters. There is a reason the presidency is considered the highest office.

And no it didnt stop under trump. Remember the riots last summer? Worse than anything under Obama. Or what about the bump stock ban, was that a pause in the gun grabber scheme?

Trump sucked, stopped pretending otherwise. And the otherwise lame excuse of the guy sucking more. Has nothing to do with how much Trump sucked.
What's this have to do with the thread title ?
 
Look at the number of "Leave me alone and let me live my life" folks who are complaining about something they could just ignore and go on without celebrating.

If you truly want to live your own life and be left alone, you've got to keep your nose out of the lives of others.
 
We have a day now to preach about something that ended 150 years ago. Let’s move on the other 364.

But the government is doing the exact opposite with this shat.
 
Multigenerational trauma is a real thing.

No it most certainly is not. If that’s the case then we would have never had a black president. Saying you are traumatized by things that occurred hundreds of years ago is ridiculous. It’s a pathetic excuse used by the lazy and uneducated. I wonder how many ultra successful black people say they are traumatized by what happened a few hundred years ago?

I'd love to see your academic sources on this.

Denial that our country's collective treatment of subgroups has been and continues to be problematic is a gigantic spotlight-wielding symptom of systematic issues.

I am not denying that our country hasn’t treated subgroups badly in the past. Just using that as some sort of excuse as to why someone either hasn’t succeeded or doesn’t have the opportunity to is ridiculous.

Systematic issues? Good grief. Ones who think like you are part of the problem. It seems you can
Always find an excuse for everything. I guess you think systemic racism is holding black people back. It’s the cause as to why they commit crime, can’t get an education or get a job right? It’s the reason for their single parent homes. There is always an excuse. Now it’s generational trauma.

So what happened hundreds of years ago somehow still reverberates with the black people today? That fits right into the silly society we live in. There is always an excuse. And when an excuse doesn’t really fit, you can always bring up either the race issue or systemic issues.

I guess people like Dr Daniel Hale Williams or Frederick McKinley Jones or Lewis Larimer all suffered from generational trauma. I guess Hank Aaron, Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Jerry Rice, Lawrence Taylor, Reggie White, Ray Lewis, Barry Sanders, Emmit Smith, Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlin, Dr Ben Carson, Samuel L Jackson, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Maxine Waters, Lori Lightfoot, Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Neil Degrasae Tyson, Morgan Freenman, Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, Michael Jackson, Chuck Berry, Barry Gordy, Quincy Jones, Oprah, Jay Z, Tyler Perry, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Dr Dre, Snopp Dog. I guess all of them suffered generational trauma.

I guess Barack Obama definitely suffered from generational trauma right?
