Supreme Court ruling on race based Louisiana redistrict question hurts democrats

[SweetTea]

But with rising unemployment,

Where did you get this information? Patently false.

 

[Divine Wind]

No, this SC decision proves our voting rights are not protected, this decision shows why they never made the VRA permanent.

To make the privilege of having white voting districts even stronger. Why in the hell do you think it was created in the first damn place.

While it may take a year or so, I think this will blow back on the Republicans.

As others have posted, there's a big difference between SCOTUS ruling that districts can't be drawn based upon race and how the Republicans are using that ruling to negate minority representation.

 

[Mac-7]

Guess how many black GOP reps there will be. 1.

In the South there will be few to none from either party.

America was not meant to be a cauldron of competing ethnic groups

That breeds hate not unity

Black people must assimilate just like everyone else

Where did you get this information? Patently false.

My guess is the jobs reports and trends.

U.S. payrolls jump more than expected, but the report had several red flags for the economy

Nonfarm payrolls were expected to increase by 55,000 in April, according to the Dow Jones consensus.

It was meant to be a cauldron for whites only, is that why you have so much hate for black folks. We will never be able to assimilate with racist because our skin will always be black. Look at the ones who have tried, Tim Scott, he is treated as a lapdog flunky, hell Trump won't even shake the man's hand and he basically kisses his butt.

They were also responsible for slavery.

Sorry to break this to you, Brutha, but slavery not only existed thousands of years before Christianity but still exists today in Africa. Human beings, in general, can be very assholish to their fellow human beings.

What is Modern Day Slavery? – voices4freedom

Modern Day Slavery is real slavery: where people are held against their will, under violence or threat of violence, and unable to walk away.

Modern Slavery in Africa, India and the United States​

Nations throughout Africa, the Middle East and Asia represent the highest rates of slavery. However, modern day slavery is also present in developed countries including the United States.

Most people around the world engage with slavery every day without realizing it. How is that? Slavery exists in the chain of production of nearly all laptops and mobile phones, and a lot of apparel, fish, coffee, chocolate, and jewelry. Most products made in compliance with ethical labor (and environmental) standards are far more expensive to consumers. Unfortunately, consumers are often tempted to choose the cheapest product, regardless of who is exploited as a result.

It seems that the black-white division is becoming old school, aka outdated

It certainly has in tv advertising where mixed race couples are almost manditory

And when the rare all-black family shows up its the Huxtable family rather than Good Times or the Jeffersons

Thats a step forward, in my opinion

Uh we are talking about slavery, rape, mutilation, destruction, lynching, Jim Crow, etc. in America. We are talking about what so called civilized Christians have done in this nation.

Malcolm X said if you can't stick a knife 9 inches into a man's back, pull it out 6 inches and call that progress. What we are seeing today is a racist republican party trying to take this country back to the days of Jim Crow.

Whst I’m seeing is black racists having a temper tantrum

 

[jacksonlamb]

Your voting tights are still protected

But the privilege of having a voting district just for black people has been revoked

... so that white people are ensured to having all the voting districts.

 

[jacksonlamb]

Whst I’m seeing is black racists having a temper tantrum

You are cross-eyed then.

 

[Mac-7]

... so that white people are ensured to having all the voting districts.

As I have already pointed out

Black people can and will still be elected

Except the criteria will be merit, aka competence, rather than skin color

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Whst I’m seeing is black racists having a temper tantrum

You are seeing black folks reacting to what white racist are doing to our right to representation.

Backwards. It is skin color that you are worried about.

 

[JoeB131]

What makes you think those jumping off the “Trump train” will go full crazy and vote for a looney lefty? That is like saying I really didn’t like my ex-girlfriend, I think I’ll try going out with dude next.

it depends why you didn't like your ex-girlfriend.

I mean, I can see that you are finally realizing Trump has been a disaster and you are looking towards whatever rebrand your side needs to try.

But I think more than a few people are going to realize that tax cuts for the rich and deregulation don't benefit them.

"but, but, but... trannies!!!"

 

[Superbadbrutha]

You have never been elected on merit and competence.

 

[Mac-7]

skin color as a preference for congress?

You betcha’

The sad thing is, even these numbers are suspect, as Trump fired the last person running BLS because she gave him news he didn't want to hear.

As someone who works heavily with job placement, the job market sucks right now.

I'm a realist who believes all major subjects should be discussed in context. Too many MAGAts think the US lives in a vacuum. Please don't think like a MAGAt. TIA.

Just because you don't like what I wrote about Christians isn't proof that all Christians are evil slavers as you assert.
