Brazen White GOP Rep Refuses to Apologize for Racial Insult

[Lesh]

There is nothing to normalize because there was no slur here. Green is a clown and not fit to be elected dog catcher let alone a member of Congress. Boebert is a tard as well, but there were no racist slurs here so deal with it and move on. You people have turned "racism" into a meaningless word due to your years of cries of "Wolf!" Nobody cares anymore except the media trying to grab a gotcha headline for sales. It's the real victims of racism who suffer, not the poverty pimps like Al Green, because nobody takes their accusations seriously any longer. It's been played out.

No slur??

I see it here every day. That's why I call it out. You and the others create it.

You start out in 1954 by saying, “******, ******, ******.” By 1968 you can’t say “******”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “******, ******.”
Lee Atwater

We know the playbook son. You guys have spent years posting racism, then trying to say it is not. You want to try pretending that the only racism that ever exists is the KKK in white robes calling people the N-word. But white racism was never like that. It's always been done subtly. We who face it know it when we see it. You who practice the behavior apparently think it's normal behavior that whites are entitled to have. Calling out racism isn't racism, nor does it create racism. The racism is already created, that's why it gets called out. So just stop trying that tired ass tactic white man. Because that is what's worn out.

Son is a colloquial expression and not a racist one. You all call each other ni””er far far far more than anybody calls you boy. You want respect? Then have some for yourself

And whites call each other wops, micks, degos pollacks,, limeys, and other similar slurs. We don't feel as if we are entitled to lecture you about having self-respect when we hear that. So shut the fuck up. A 77-year-old man shouldn't be called boy by anyone. And when someone white does it, the meaning is clear. That's the bed whites made in this country. Deal with it.

Bullshit

Reality you don’t want nor like nor can discredit. You Can drop a turd which is about as far as your “mind” can get

[ThisIsMe]

You are here just to argue. You’re full of shit.

Um..were ALL here to argue...you didn't think this place was for solving problems did you?

I'm not full of shots, I'm just pushing back against you leftys who use this game as a means to attack. Truth be told, I'd imagine most of you couldn't care less about the race issue, or trans issue, or illegals or any of it. It's simply a vehicle for your attacks.

Was it a slur when Biden called LL Cool J a BOY Lesh ?

A white like your Vegetable Messiah?

That was real racism, white man.

And that's real racism. Either tell me why you think I'm white, or your racist colors are showing.

That's the problem. The racists are trying to gaslight us about what real racism is.

Nobody is trying to gaslight you. You're just blowing this out of proportion. Had she been talking TO him and addressed him as boy, and said it in the demeaning tone, I'd agree.

Ever hear of a southerner using the phrase "dammit boy"? It's a way of saying "dang" or " oh wow", like a phrase of exclamation. Nothing is meant bad when people use it.

For example:

John: "we rolled that jeep 3 times coming down that hill"

Steve: "dammit boy, you were lucky not to he killed".

see what I mean?

Also, you've called white folks on this forum "white boy" many times, can we now call you racist?

 

[whitehall]

"Boy" is a male person. Why didn't the former president apologize for using the term "colored people"?

 

[Orangecat]

"Boy oh boy" is a traditional colloquialism that has nothing to do with race. Race baiters gotta clutch their pearls, though.

'
I watch old movies all the time and people refer to men as boys all the time.

In fact I just watched a Bob Hope movie and he was hiding out as a bell boy and his customer called him boy.

It only became a racisal slur when the black expolitation movies came out in the 70's.

Don't even try it. Your responses give you away.

Sorry but when white southerners calls someone black boy, the history of that use shows it's a racial slur. Now, since whites call themselves white boys, and speak proudly of being white boys, when did that become a slur? When whites believe that being white is superior to everything else, when did white become a slur? Or is this just something whites have done to create a false equivalence to deny the real racism they have imposed upon others who are not white?

 

[Hollie]

Come on, really? Leave it to left wing sites like daily beast to scour the internet looking for every phrase they can to try and claim it's racism.

Look, the woman is from tennessee...she's a country girl, you can hear it in her voice...that's just how country folk talk. The use of the term "boy" is just a mannerism for them. They use that word for ANY male person regardless of race.

Your silly attempt at a conspiracy theory crashed to the ground in flames, loser.

White GOP Rep Calls 77-Year-Old Black Congressman ‘Boy’

Tennessee Republican Rep. Diana Harshbarger has come under fire for referring to Texas Democrat Al Green, a 77-year-old Black man, as “boy.” Green generated headlines for interrupting and pointing his cane at President Donald Trump to protest proposed cuts to Medicaid during his annual address...

Yes it was a racial insult

STFU bOY ... yes the lower case be was on purpose ..

 

[Mac-7]

What do we have here? Well Tennessee Rep. Diana Harshbarger called Texas Rep. Al Green “boy”.
Any of you Tennesseans, what do you say about this? In my opinion, this is the MAGA Party.

Green, who is 77, held a press conference in Texas earlier Tuesday alongside other community leaders in which he noted his personal experience with such racially coded language.

“This is especially sensitive for me because, as a child, I remember my father being stopped by a peace officer, and the officer referred to my father as ‘boy.’ And my mother was ‘girl.’ And it wasn’t just that one time. It was the way society addressed people of color who were of African ancestry at the time,” Green said.

“It wasn’t said to indicate that you were youthful. It was said to demean, to degrade, to denigrate. It was said such that you would know your place in society, and it was something that you would have said immediately to you.”

Brazen White GOP Rep Refuses to Apologize for Racial Insult

A white GOP congresswoman who called Texas Rep. Al Green “boy” didn’t apologize for her comment Tuesday and instead claimed that the senior Black lawmaker is “blowing it out of proportion.” More than 24 hours after an interview clip of her using the word in reference to Green gained attention...

The cane is clearly a theatrical prop

Waving it at trump was not cool
