(114 posts)From now on, protesters at a Trump rally should throw Skittles all over the ground. What a simple way to throw his comment back into his face.

Yes it's another white power signal from Trump jr.

I'd probably forgotten that on purpose, given how repulsive it was. How they tried to vilify the murder victim by claiming he was a thug and a druggie, and therefore he deserved to be shot. About how he "was carrying Skittles and Iced Tea, two of the three ingredients for purple drank." Without mentioning that the third, and only important ingredient was prescription cough syrup, which he DID NOT have. It was like saying that you can make a bomb with a stick of dynamite, an alarm clock, and a paper bag to put it in. And Treyvon Martin was carrying an alarm clock and a paper bag....two of the three ingredients for a bomb, and therefore he was a terrorist.
Thanks for reminding me why the Skittles meme is so much more attractive to the Alt-Right.

(47,209 posts)It definitely goes back to the Nazis with an infamous (children's?) book comparing them to poisonous mushrooms. The author stood trial at Nuremberg.
Just when you thought it couldn't be more hatefully racist, it gets work. That was from the son who's first campaign was where they killed those three freedom marchers - with the help of local police. As in the movie Missisippi Burning. The racist dog whistles are totally intentional.
