Let's not confuse or even conflate the actual issue. Twitter Feed is labeled a racist because he says blatantly racist things. Unfortunately we live in a society where far too often racists and those that deny/ignore racism are afforded the opportunity to define exactly what it is. As is happening now.

No one is falsely accusing that bigoted asswipe of being racist. He is considered racist because he says racist shit all of the time. That's it. That's all.

But sometimes he says things that make perfect sense. Despite his reputation, it seems prudent to respond first to what he is posting. If you smell bullshit based on his history as a poster, no one can blame you for that (if you can make the argument, that is).


However, he does sometimes offer pretty good analysis. He also goes after several people I really respect, which always makes me hesitant to defend him, but . . . ya gotta stay honest. Otherwise, I tend to get dumber.


Well said Tommy.

Wayne is Tommy?

I think I have all these internet friends and they end up being just one person.

He has a bit of a Dissociative identity disorder so it’s hard to tell and it’s like having multiple friends.

What she said during the moment someone was trying to rob her family doesn't rise to the level that she should be removed from the bench to me. I'm not sure that I would even be comfortable enough to call her a piece of shit without more information. People shout worse things out of anger in situations that aren't potentially life and death.
To be clear, she and her family were watching a security video of the robber being captured when the slurs were uttered. They were laughing about it as well so I don't think they were in fear for their life.


Unless I'm completely missing something, her kids were providing a recap of the attempted robbery.

Lafayette police responded to a failed burglary of two vehicles at Odinet’s home in Bendel Gardens at around 2 a.m. Saturday. A 59-year-old Black man was arrested and charged with two counts of simple burglary.

In statements to local media, Odinet said her family was the victim of an armed burglary, but a Lafayette Police spokesperson told the Daily Advertiser there was no indication that the suspect who was arrested had a weapon.


We wouldn't even know what she said if her kids didn't provide a video recap to embarrass her.

Think about what we're doing here. A woman had her property burglarized in the middle of the night, but the man who committed the crime isn't the focus, we're focusing on what the victim said during a traumatic event. We are looking to punish the victim of a crime for what they said during said crime. It's absurd. All of us would have said something offensive to the burglar. So we're essentially debating what is acceptable to say during a traumatic event.

Solid take. But it is a judge. A job that is supposed to be for those with higher character than us mopes.

I'm not sure that even during a burglary those words are in my vocabulary.

Considering that he can actually formulate an actual thought it's safe to say that he isn't Ballpark Frank.
