From Louder with Crowder
By Kacie Burnett | Friday May 13 2016
Leftists love to imply that if groups like BlackLivesMatter make you uncomfortable, it’s because you’re racist. It doesn’t matter that BLM has an embarrassingly violent history of racism itself (see BlackLivesMatter Blasts Library… For Not Segregating Safe Spaces?!). Think less MLK Jr and more Malcolm X.

Is it effective?” and “Is everybody being equal and is everyone being tolerant?” If something makes you feel happy, seems to be useful and doesn’t seem to discriminate against anyone, then it’s okay…. via Why the Gays are Winning.

Students are evaluated not so much on what they know as on the attitudes they hold. Continue reading
