Michael Eric Dyson suggests more white kids need to die in order for Americans to understand racism - YouTube

This is MSNBC. This is liberalism. These are the voices dictating the discussion on 'race'. Disgusting, despicable, and irresponsible.

Maybe we Conservatives and others who have common sense and decency, need to do what the Left does. Maybe we should be the ones, this time, going after the advertisers for MSNBC. This type of filth is on there night after night, day after day. How on Earth do advertisers see this and think, yeah we have no problem supporting this?

To say that the way "we" feel about 9/11 is how they feel about race.....My God. Who is "we". I didnt know 9/11 brought out a strong feeling in everyone except black people.

And the white kids need to die comment. Please explain what that means. Sounds like a threat, a wish. And white kids do die. Plenty. But what he fails to mention, is more black people are killed by black people than this white on black crime he dreams up.

No, he's saying that it's difficult to truly understand racism unless it's your own children who are being hurt. He certainly is not advocating for any children to be harmed. What a backwards reading of a fairly straightforward message. Your lack of comprehension skills is astonishing.

Really? What the hell does that have to do with white people?? Is it OUR fault blacks kill blacks so often? Oh, I know thats not what he meant. He is suggesting that white on black crime is some epidemic. The hell it is!

And it sure sounded to me like he believes unless more white kids are killed, we'll never get past race.

I'm curious, is Obama a White Black or a Black White? (Since leftists call Zimmerman a White Hispanic)

And you don't fail to disappoint.

MED: How do you explain the affects of racism to people who can't experience it? Compare it to something that they did experience that was emotional for them -- 9/11 in his example. How do you convey what it's like for a culture to deal w/ constant loss of young life? You ask the other group to imagine losing that many of those they care about to something tragic & senseless.

How the hell is racism like 9/11? Two completely different things.

and he said:

"Not until and unless the number of white kids died that approximate the number of blacks and other kids die, will Americans see...."

You left that part out. Wonder why.
