Why We White People Expect to Comfortable at All Times

Of course we expect it. I'm watching CNN and some white dude named "Wolf" is very worried about a building named after a white woman whose name is more known by Americans than than any black woman I know.

Seems Mr. Wolf is worried not only about that building, but also the gas station across the street from the corporate building named after a supposed white child/woman?

Mr. Wolf said, "it's a dangerous situation."

Of course it is. Although , the reporter says no humans where hurt.

Once I pointed out to an ex-cop I knew from grades 1-11 on a FB comment to his post that the flag he was saying we needed to protect on was, and has been, the flag of the treasonous since the Civil War.

First, his wife replied to me by tagging her husband with a comment that said I "did not understand history."

Of course he promptly "un-friended" me.

My point is, these people will not accept a bit of dis-comfort in their lives to accept the history of the nation and the people they swear to protect.

Not a bit. Not even a burger joint.

When I first heard of Travon Martin I thought “ what girl or woman would walk at night to go get anything all by herself? Nope, she would have had to bring a friend. Or not go. Those are our options. Or learn self defense.

How many Native American women have “disappeared”?

Women do not have the same rights as men, of any race.

I’m not trying to change the subject, but I think it must be clarified that it is white men, not white people.
