As if this "Officer Tatum" idiot represents most black people.

Do I hear another "you ain't black" line coming on?

Dallas has a Martyrs Park (dedicated to an 1860 triple lynching that occurred there) on park land directly west of the Grassy Knoll, beginning on the west side of the Underpass bridge.
I learned about this on this otherwise silly thread ::)
 I've lived in Dallas all my life and yet had never heard of this. That area though is accessible [AFAIK] only by walking through the underpass. I believe homeless people are camping on it...............

The key word here is "proposed" which means JFK actually got nothing done. 
Well Richard...I wonder if that is because he wound up getting snuffed before he could  :-\

:D :D :D

You gave a lukewarm response about LBJ.

Where am I defending Oswald?

Giving LBJ credit for Civil Rights advancement is a "lukewarm" response?  That seems pretty important to me.  And that is really your defense for suggesting that I viciously attacked "every Democratic President"?  And this from the same person who has cut and pasted thousands of outlandish, hate filled and often false anti-Trump posts.

Where did I say Trudeau didn't use blackface? You focused on the incident when he was 29. I gave it context. The earlier episodes are what might be "youthful antics". He sang "Day-O" in the drama club in high school and the video was from the 90s when he was doing a summer job river-rafting. I wonder why the clip is so short; the photographers and others in blackface?

The images came out a month before the election. Trudeau lost the popular vote and his party held onto power with less than a full majority. Trudeau might have fared worst but his Conservative rival was caught on an alt-right website that sought to justifiy (a la Trump) the Charlottesville white-nationalists.

So now you're for cancel-culture. If Trudeau was not apologetic and did not made amends, and had ongoing indiscretions and insensitive remarks, you might have a point. Contrast the "bus tape" of a 59-year-old man still being a pig.

Take it up with the person who posted this:  "Trudeau (who's half-Scottish, half-French-Canadian) was 29 when he dressed as "Aladdin" (ie: not African-American) at an "Arabian Nights" dinner at the college where he taught. Pretty far from "Amos 'n' Andy".  This clearly suggests that Trudeau did not dress in blackface.  A falsehood.  Why you choose to focus just on this other incident is your own business but it implies a falsehood by ignoring the clear evidence that Trudeau did go "Amon 'n' Andy.'  It is a very dishonest respond.  Something more akin to a Rick Plant post.

If you believe this, then that take it up with Oswald.

Besides giving LBJ a lukewarm response, you have viciously attacked every Democratic President with outright lies and bogus right wing propaganda. 

Hilarious how you claim you to be for "civil rights" when you worship a racist Republican Party who are dismantling voter rights for African Americans all across America.   

There is nothing that I posted that was outlandish, false, or hate filled regarding Criminal Donald. You can't name one thing that was.
