    I really don't see that phrase being thrown around much. The vocal black conservatives out there have been pointing out that Uncle Tom is actually a hero in that book. What I have seen with Walker is attempts to cancel him by saying know one would care about what he says if he hadn't been a great football player. Interesting take considering how much weight they place on the views of Lebron James.

    Ok so they wont call him uncle tom, but the sentiment is the same...cancel out views different than your own.

    i think we are like the frog in the parable, in the slowly warming water. we dont realize howbad things are.

    think about this.

    if a white lady was recorded calling a black person at walmart a dumb nigger, and there was an argument, it would be HUGE news. she would be fired, it would be a big story, everyone would go bonkers. nationwide news.

    now, imagine that same person, instead of being called a nigger, they were shot to death in a drive by shooting. barely makes the news. happens almost every day. 4 people shot yesterday in baton rouge.

    we are to the point where murder is less newsworthy than namecalling.

    If you believe what you are saying and vote for a democrat any democrat you are betraying your beliefs. Vote for Bugs Bunny if you have to.

    A vote for a Libertarian is a vote for Biden. Hope you vote the next best option not for my or even your sake but for the sake of this country and freedom. It's that critical this election. We are at a tipping point.

    Look at this and more importantly listen to this.
