Why does he feel it necessary to live in a gated community? I don't think we have to work very hard to understand.

Why does he cheer on the rioters when they are burning down a building in their own neighborhood, an affordable housing building, and then get all law and order when they come to his gated community? "Get these animals TF out of my neighborhood. Go back to where you live"

Quite the turnabout no?

Is that true? I'm always a bit skeptical when memes like this show up. I need to do a little more research. Believe it or not a few here would think I don't like the truth.

Yes its true, he has now deleted the "burn it all down" tweet but the internet is forever.

Google Chris Martin Palmer you will see all the reports on this.

Given that you made a mistake in identification, I think you would be wise to delete the entire discussion at once.

I am not to sure how this thread is relevant to totv. I don't think we need to fuel the great divide on here. I would rather debate The Villages issues, not race. Post 6 is way out of bounds.

I downloaded the wrong photo, realized my mistake and corrected it promptly and publically. The story is 100% factual, Chris Martin Palmer did indeed make those tweets. Why delete a true story?

You should google Steve Bannon and his quotes that are very similar, but from the "opposite" perspective.

Discuss race all you like. This thread is about hypocrisy, in which a reporter cheered the rioters on when they were burning down a building in their own neighborhood, and then called them animals when they came to his home.

And where was the "upheaval" last week?

The media has an agenda, guiding the gullible to think what the camera portrays is representative of what is going on in America.

It is not.

Red herring's, diversion and obfuscation, are just some of the methods by which those who are content with the status quo...try to ignore the real issue.
