Utopia Talk / Politics / Floriduh

Y2A Member	Thu Jan 24 20:26:37 Floriduh Secretary of State, who is in charge of restoring voting rights to ex-felons, resigns after photos of him in blackface inmitating a Katrina victim comes out.
Y2A Member	Thu Jan 24 20:30:44 He was in charge of suppressing the black vote in Seminole County Flduh at the time the pictures were taken.
Dukhat Member	Thu Jan 24 20:53:43 No shit. What's sad is where there's smoke, there's fire. Think of all the times they got away with it.
Sam Adams Member	Thu Jan 24 21:10:21 Oh man painting your face black 14 years ago is so fucking bad. Destroy his career! This right here makes me want to vote for trump.
Dukhat Member	Thu Jan 24 21:26:51 Defending blackface in 2019. That’s a bold move Cotton, let’s see if it pays off.
obaminated Member	Thu Jan 24 21:45:04 2019, eh?
obaminated Member	Thu Jan 24 21:45:33 So, let's ignore the fact that you can't read. Do you really think what you wear for halloween should destroy your life and career?
Dukhat Member	Thu Jan 24 22:10:07 My comment referenced the fact that Sam is defending it in 2019 you fucking retard. But I'm pretty sure doing it in response to the Katrina tragedy 14 years ago would be just as bad. You fucking idiot.
obaminated Member	Thu Jan 24 22:11:32 "So, let's ignore the fact that I*** can't read. Do you really think what you wear for halloween should destroy your life and career?"
Wrath of Orion Member	Thu Jan 24 22:15:01 Note the two different versions already present in the thread... "in blackface inmitating a Katrina victim" "what you wear for halloween" And yes, one of those (taken at face value, no pun intended), is much worse than the other.
obaminated Member	Thu Jan 24 22:18:07 i guess i have thicker skin than most. what someone wears during halloween really has zero bearing on my feelings or thoughts. granted, i wouldn't do it, nor would i wear a nazi uniform, but other people do because they are trying to do a gag. i don't get the uproar.
Wrath of Orion Member	Thu Jan 24 22:25:20 Again, there is a pretty big difference between what you are claiming and what the other version is claiming.

Y2A Member	Thu Jan 24 23:06:41 "makes me want to vote for clown." Go for it.
yankeessuck123 Member	Fri Jan 25 03:43:05 It's not so much about how the guy dressed for Halloween. It's about what else we might reasonably assume about someone who thinks it's funny to dress as a blackface Katrina victim.
Sam Adams Member	Fri Jan 25 09:43:14 Worth him losing his job? Thats bullshit.
hood Member	Fri Jan 25 10:02:36 Losing his job as a public servant*. It's an important distinction. If he was just some random asshole with a 9-5, I would be on the "who really gives a shit? Guy's an idiot, no need to cost him his job" (a la Boston bomber girl). This guy holds public office. They should be held to a higher standard.
TJ Member	Fri Jan 25 10:11:25 There would be zero politicians if offensive behavior was a standard. Reasonably assumed...
Dukhat Member	Fri Jan 25 10:17:19 There would be zero *republican* politicans if offensive behavior was a standard. FTFY.
TJ Member	Fri Jan 25 10:31:18 I'll reasonably assume I was correct.
hood Member	Fri Jan 25 10:37:59 You are clearly not. Being correct would require properly interpreting context.
TJ Member	Fri Jan 25 10:42:13 I agree that assuming is definitely not proper context.
Rugian Member	Fri Jan 25 14:05:12 Find me a person who claims they have never said or done anything offensive, and I'll find you a liar. Not to mention that "offense" is subjective to the person observing it...so any act can potentially be offensive.
hood Member	Fri Jan 25 14:08:29 Pretending like "anything offensive" is relevant to the discussion like you're a willful retard doesn't win you any points.
Rugian Member	Fri Jan 25 14:14:14 Translated from Jew-speak: "I'm a total partisan hack. Feel free to ignore everything I say."
obaminated Member	Fri Jan 25 14:15:00 hood what do you want to do to the people behind the the 1986 film, soul man? surely they deserve scorn?
hood Member	Fri Jan 25 14:30:28 "what do you want to do to the people behind the the 1986 film, soul man? surely they deserve scorn?" Are they holding public office? "Translated from Jew-speak:" It is not surprising that the lesser species are unable to truly comprehend the language and intricacies of the chosen.
Canadian Member	Sat Jan 26 23:03:44 "obaminated Member Thu Jan 24 21:45:33 So, let's ignore the fact that you can't read. Do you really think what you wear for halloween should destroy your life and career?" - You can wear people? Slow down there, Buffalo Bill.
obaminated Member	Sun Jan 27 03:13:07 idiots responding like idiots.
jergul large member	Sun Jan 27 03:40:06 Obam Depends on the job and what was done. To answer your question. If you feel employees in general have poor job security, then I would agree with that.
Canadian Member	Mon Jan 28 22:17:02 "obaminated Member Sun Jan 27 03:13:07 idiots responding like idiots." - I was unaware you were more than one person, so I apologize to both of your personalities (the headstrong, but not necessarily too smart, politico, and the other that likes rom-coms).
