I am according to Copperline, who called me a racist in public on FB today.  He also said I was despicable because I continue to support our Presdient. 

I am someone who believes in diversity and in management roles, have sought to broaden the diversity of my offices, which I have been able to find well qualified candidates.  I have encouraged African Americans in their career goals, found a job from which to launch a career for one, sent another one across the road to register for school, I have promoted others.  Not becasue they were black, but because they were good and talented people, and well qualified.  I don't believe in EEO "goals" or quotas.  In my 32 year career, I have never had a grievance filed against me save for one, who didn't like his "satisfactory" rating.  He tried to say it was racial, but of course, it wasn't and the outcomes was that the claim was dismissed. 

I don't support Neo-Nazis, white supremists or the KKK, but I do believe in the First Amendment and I do believe in the public right to assembly (as permitted).  Just because the majority of people don't like their message of hate, doesn't mean they don't have a right to express it.  They are responsible for their actions and for their beliefs, just like anyone else.  I probably read or here at least one thing every day that rubs up against my beliefs or sensibilities, but I'm sure I say or write things than may rub others the wrong way.

No Hound you have never posted anything that would qualify you as a racist,u like archy who made a blatantly racist post yesterday. Neither am I. One of the best hires I ever made was a black woman who I hired as my assistant. I knew in the first two minutes she had a new job, of course it took her a day or so to find out because no matter how impressed I was I still did my due diligence. I am proud to say that 15 years after I left that company she is still there and looking g to retire very soon.

YOur have to understand that to hard core liberals like copper, archy and the like anyone who doesn't buy into liberal dogma hook, line and sinker is a racist. They thselvescant be racist though because they have such compassion and empathy for the poor downtrodden black folks. They are so blinded by ideology that they don't even see the racism in their "compassion". Just the low expectations they place on black folks who are so oppressed by white is racist to its core. They just assume that blacks can't compete in a free marketplace. They continually tell blacks they aren't succeeding because white keeps them down, while it is the democrat politician who really keep them down, just to keep them voting for Dems. In my experience racist blacks are the most racist of all.

Copportunities and archy live in an echo chamber in a bubble of group think.. I wouldn't worry one bit about what copper says because anyone in his circle was already thinking the same thing and those that know you k ow the truth and will summarily dismiss his rantings. Facebook is a liberal haven from zuck on down to the misguided souls that live their life on Facebook. Delete you account and life is much much better.

How do you know that you won an argument with a liberal? They call you a racist.

Left wingers are the biggest racists of them all.  They regularly exhibit the soft bigotry of low expectations of people of color.  They love Planned Parenthood who has murdered millions of babies of the wrong color.  They only view blacks and Hispanics as useful idiots that will keep them in political power by keeping them in dependency and poverty rather than actually helping them.  

Screaming racism is simply saying, "I have lost this argument because of facts, logic and reason, I don't want to hear the truth any more and so I must silence you by calling you a racist".  I am with you on the idiot neo-nazis that while I find their beliefs to be wrong, ignorant and hateful, like BLM and Occupy Wall Street, et al have a right to spew their nonsense as long as it is peaceful and compliant with the laws of assembly.  I do not understand the left and their desire to quell any speech they don't like.  These neo nazi nutjobs got way more coverage because of the attacks on them than had they just been ignored.

  One would think that if they really felt the rights arguments were wrong and would turn folks off to their message they would encourage it. The fact that they feel compelled to silence speaks volumes. Personally I love it when I hear left wing nuts talking because I know that folks connected brain cells will see them for what they are,batsht crazy. Piglosi, maxipad, mc awful are prime examples.

Agree.  Let people discredit themselves by their very words.  This goes for left wing nuts and white supremacists.  The more they talk the more people realize that their beliefs are based on ignorance, hatred, intolerance, etc.  It's when they are slienced that people start to wonder if there is something there to consider, otherwise why would their opposition be so fearful of letting them speak?

The parade was organized such that the legal protesters marched into a gauntlet of hired dimwits.  Cops did nothing.  Media denounced the legal protesters.

I think you raised an important point - as a result of all this, the alt right is getting much more attention than they might have otherwise been afforded.  And then with David Duke saying that Trump is "their" president, liberals assume the President sides with the KKK, Neo-Nazi, or white supremists.

I really just found it interesting that a man who has never met me, would call me a racist.  But since I am despicable and racist, I unfriended Cooperline.

Talk about being screwed up...Moore calls ACLU a liberal hate group. But, ACLU defended the Nazis and KKK in court last week and won the case to allow them to rally in the park. To bad the Right doesn't understand that the ACLU will defend the right of all to free speech.

“The citations in the ad are blatantly false and misleading. Judge Moore served honorably as an advocate for the Foundation for Moral Law as he helped lead them into legal battles against liberal hate groups like the ACLU and the Southern Poverty Law Center.” ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The white nationalists, neo-Nazis, and Ku Klux Klan members protesting today in Charlottesville, Virginia, have an unusual ally behind them: the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).

The ACLU is defending the protesters’ right to demonstrate at Emancipation Park in Charlottesville at the site of a controversial statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that is scheduled to be torn down.

The city of Charlottesville had tried to revoke the protest permit of one of the rally organizers, Jason Kessler. But the ACLU, among others, came to his legal defense, arguing in court that the move was trying to unlawfully restrict his free speech. US District Court Judge Glen Conrad agreed, ruling on Friday “that Kessler has shown that he will likely prove that the decision to revoke his permit was based on the content of his speech.”

  Hound, turn about is fair play so since he attacked and bewitched your character please "out" him o  this forum. Post his personal info so we all know who we are dealing with.. We deserve to know who he is. Most all of us regulars know who each other is, many of us know each other off the forum also. Consider it a public service.

A question I have not heard in the news is why did the mayor of charllottesville order police to stand down and withdraw from their assigned duty to protect the statue supporters from the b l m  mob? I believe it is because the liberal democrat mayor wanted to see a group of white people get beat up and murdered by the b l m mob. He wanted to get together with the other communist democrats and have a good chuckle over how he humiliated a bunch of white people.

Yep, I'm a 57 year old socially and fiscally conservative white male and to those with limited mental capacity that is de facto proof of racism.  Of course the fact that I don't fixate on race, gender or sexual orientation when it comes to my interaction with others probably means nothing.  The fact that I believe all of us should have equal rights regardless of our skin color, etc. probably means nothing.  What does seem to mean something to left wing nuts is that I believe in limited government, our basic human rights come from our Creator and not government, government does very few things well, personal responsibility, a strong national defense, the right to bear arms, equal treatment in college admissions, hiring based on qualifications and merit rather than quotas, the freedom to worship God both in private and in the public square (or not for those who are atheist or agnostic), the freedom to express ideas even if they are unpopular or repugnant, traditional ideas of morality, the need for law and order, the protection of life from conception to natural death and understand fundamental human nature of man.

So some will call me a racist and I will defend their right to be completely, objectively and demonstrably wrong.

Trump said again today in a press conference that he believes there was fault on both sides.  That drew intakes of breath from the new media and then the questions started.  Is he daring to say that the alt Left did something wrong???? yes he did.  Some of them showed up with bats and proceeded to beat the other side.  He reiterated that he has no use for KKK, White Supremists and Neo Nazi, but according to Trump, there were other people there that were not affliated with those groups.  And all of the people on the other side were paid protesters or came armed with baseball bats.  The subject of the press conference was supposed to be about legislation for infrastructure, but you know the media was not interested in that.  The other thing that Trump said was that his initial statement on Saturday was based on what they knew at the time and they got more information by Monday which is why he made another speech, denouncing those hate groups. 

You know that the media would have found fault with his statements, no matter how carefully crafted.  The media will never give Trump credit for anything.

C'mon Hound. If you are going to come over here and solicit people to come after me, at least give them the whole story.   I also said it was pathetic and vile to support a grandfather of Jewish children who would not denounce Nazis.  I stand by that.  I didn't call you a racist, you painted yourself into that corner.   I said I am familiar with people who vote for racist politicians and support their ideas but would not describe themselves as racist themselves.  If you do that sort of thing, you can call yourself anything you like.  

  And, before you reply HE DID denounce Nazis.... That FB thread was before his obviously reluctant and wimpy face-saving comment session....and certainly before his Trump tower press conference when he said the KKK, Nazi side has "fine people" among them.  

If you stand with them.....if you tolerate and excuse them... Well, you are not a fine person.

Today, a large segment of prominent Americans are retracting their support for a guy who values the support of facist-racist groups more than protecting his grandchildren from people who would exterminate them if they get the chance.

What I find pathetic and vile is that it matters so much to you about if a Grandfather of Jewish children denounces anyone - Why does anyone have to state the words that you wish to come out of someone elses mouth and since they did not say something exactly the way you want that you want to label that person as vile, pathetic etc.  You suck.

"I think there is blame on both sides. You look at both sides. I think there is blame on both sides," Trump said today.

"You had some very bad people in that group. You also had some very fine people on both sides," he added.

list of different groups : https://www.voanews.com/a/groups-protesting-in-charlottesville/3985479.html

Lets look at your KKK / Neo Nazi hate group Unite the Right who you want condemened so badly.

http://www.dailywire.com/news/19747/reports-man-behind-unite-right-was-occupy-wall-james-barrett#exit-modal

Did you know that prior to 2016 he was an Obama supporter and member of Occupy Wall Street?  

Regardless of Kessler’s past politics, the rightward shift in his views was first put on display in November, 2016 when his tirade against Wes Bellamy began.  Kessler’s unearthing of Bellamy’s sexist, homophobic, and bigoted tweets did garner some coverage on the national scene. Relishing in the spotlight, Kessler pressed the attack.

There were lots of different groups there for lots of different reasons.  Sounds to me like this nutburger has long lived in the democrat party and after trump magically decides he is now extreme right instead of extreme left?  Sounds more like a nutburger who wants to cause problems and generate headlines.  

Kessler "took $1,320 as a consulting fee from a Democratic candidate running for the Senate in 2012. He’s pro-abortion, an environmentalist, a non-interventionist, pro-equality and an atheist, among other things."

Sorry, Dont sound much like Mr Nazi alt-right to me.  Sounds like more Alt-Left hiding as a RINO to generate negative headlines.  

CrapperTime - 

The same could be said of you - If you stand with them(BLM and ANTIFA).....if you tolerate and excuse them... Well, you are not a fine person.  They also brought guns, knives and sticks to a peacefull rally and in the past police officers have been killed at their gatherings.  Now you disagree with someones message and want to violate their rights to peacefull assembly and 1st amendment - you are disgusting and vile for wanting to deny anyone their constitutional rights, regardless of how distasteful it is.

Antifa have emerged as the militant fringe of #TheResistance against Donald Trump — who, they maintain, is a fascist, ushering into power a fascist regime. In Washington, D.C., Antifa spent the morning of Inauguration Day lighting trash cans on fire, throwing rocks and bottles at police officers, setting ablaze a limousine, and tossing chunks of pavement through the windows of several businesses.

Yup lefty AntiFA is just a bunch of innocent lefties who never throw things at police officers, arson and vandalism - just little angels who do not deserve to be condemned along with those horrible alt-right nazi white nationalists because there doing the dirty work of the liberals.

Now if you please, so you are not a hypocrit - please make sure you in your next post denounce AntiFA and BLM for the horrible actions of any one of their members just as you would wish that DJT denounce alt-right groups to protect his "Jewish" grandchildren.
