Your points are all limited to your singular perspective on the issue and include no consideration for anyone other than yourself and the perspective of white America. Basically you don't condone the "N" word, what a guy. Congrats and thanks for waisting my time.
You're right, I'm not going to speak for a black person. Why? I'm white. It's not my place to speak for them (unlike those who speak for Native Americans when it comes to Chief Wahoo). I am, however, an American, which affords me the right to voice my opinion.

Thank you for feeling my post wasted your time essentially because I am white, and because I am white my opinion apparently shouldn't matter on this subject.

It's about perspective taking you tool. I'm white too but I can still take the perspective of others and understand where they're coming from

Unless you are a middle class suburban white liberal, then you and only you understand the plight of poor people and how they should let you speak for them as you know that they aren't capable of speaking for themselves! In fact, it would be better if the government took care of them!

I find it so funny how the modern left is so suffering from cognitive dissonance that they can't see how racist, elitist and demeaning they sound.

Wow some interesting stuff in this thread. I will only comment on protesting, I believe we all have the right to do it just not at work.

This is not a protest, it is just a new way for idiots to show their stupidity.
Just like the morons who burned the Lincoln bust to protest slavery.
You can't fix stupid.
