(4,713 posts)1. Disillusioned white folks got their panties in a bunch bc
their special leader got put in on the spot. As a minority I have been saying from the jump that the issue of race & social injustices are not being addressed appropriately. I don't care what marches they participated in 40+ yrs ago all they are doing now is giving lip service. Not actively participating in any of the marches or protests that are going on. It's my son's, cousin's & future generations that I have to worry about.
I don't give a damn if someone's feelings feel hurt, they have been blatantly ignoring our major issues.

I was for Sanders last year. I was giddy when he entered the race. I wanted to support him.
