    That's nice, but the discussion was with a 43 year old.

    Trump had nothing to do with Floyd. If you blame the president for local police brutality then you are part of the problem.
    Besides, I’ll take Trump with his stupid tweets over someone from a party that completely lost it and is in fact becoming dangerous to my loved ones with their inaction and appeasement of criminals who destroy businesses and local communities.

    Such would ultimately mean Barack Obama was directly responsible for every black individual killed by law enforcement during his eight years as president of the united states. His policies certainly did not keep Tamir Rice from being killed.

    You have to understand that if you are white then according to some you have never faced hardship, never had to break a sweat at work since you were hired in as the manager on your first job, always have food just waiting for you when you went home and had everything else handed to you. That "white privilege" thingy.

    I once hired a young black lady for an office position. She was from Alaska, born and raised, but married a black guy from here in Alabama and they settled here he had health problems and his family here was helping. Her race was never an issue everyone in the office treated everyone the same. One Monday morning as we were drinking our get the day going coffee and talking about what we did that weekend I asked her if her family had gone to the big Jazz/R&B concert that had been held at the Fairgrounds. She looked at me and said "Oh no, too many black people there".

    Wyrobek likely is just the point of the phalanx, willing to go public, with many others quietly changing their entire business plan and skedaddling to a new location serious about insuring domestic tranquility with law and order. You can just move and abandon your former business location, a violent city need not know what you are doing as the well runs dry.

    Violence, crime and prosperity do not mix.

    Republicans love to pay people less than a living wage, then attack them for being poor

    Pray tell, exactly what is the appropriate, one-size-fits-all response, when there is rioting, looting, and arson being carried out in an unrestrained manner? Detail exactly what the appropriate response to such is in all circumstances.

    yeah, a highschool diploma, which anyone can get. That is based on personal drive, not wealth.

    Nobody ever held a gun to my head and forced me to accept a job -- except LBJ.

    yeah, that is why Trump businesses hired illegals and shipped jobs overseas

    republicans are against the min wage, because they prefer to pay slave wages if they can get away with it

    Slaves never made any wages...the republicans freed them so they could make wages

    now dems just talk about a min wage.

    jobs went over seas because dems taxes business so much they fled...businesses have come back thanks to trump and gop polices. Now those businesses are fleeing places like Minn and NYC

    Southern conservative Dems and fought the Republicans to keep them. You are right Republicans embrace them and welcome free people into the party. Dems on the other hand still think they own them...”you ain’t black” joe Biden

    Trump is their president. He’s the president of anyone in the USA. That’s then only correct thing in your post. The slave traders would never want to be in the party of freedom.
