I had a old boomer call for my hanging when I was a teen.
I'm brown. I am minding my business at a store. some boomer said I should "Remember there's cameras in this store." Like wtf? I said, "Those cameras are for you."
And before I know it, he's flipping out calling me a thug and that I'm lucky to be alive because in five minutes, he can have his friends lynch me.
Security guard came over and immediately took the Boomer's side. And told me to either leave or cops will be called.
Welcome to America.
Yeah I believe. It's pretty much like that where I live. But now it's the LGBT community.
It's cool how we're just a pop politics leverage tool. /S
They fuck up the youths lives before they can even understand life.
My mom brags about how she likes black people better then the "removed" and "removed". It makes me want to kms sometimes.
