    USA is like that old class mate whose life only seems to be getting worse every time you meet them.

    Now do the one where the black kid stabs the white kid in the chest, admits to it, then his family profits off of it and plays the victims the entire time.

      There was one set-up by the NAACP, however the family has turned it down. They are actually pursuing charges as the woman followed their 5 year old while yelling slurs at him, and he is autistic. She claims he stole her diaper bag, however other witnesses have said this wasn’t true, he began playing with toys that were out, and, apparently owned by her, which prompted her to do this. Following the kid, while doing this likely makes this harassment. In this particular case harassment of a 5 year old, special needs kid, and because of the slurs, a hate crime enhancer to the penalties. So she could actually be in serious legal trouble. The family said they would much rather pursue criminal charges. Also, the man who recorded, and outed, her was charged with some sort of sexual crime, i think, involving a minor. The case however was dropped in a manner that means that the case was so bad it wasn’t even worth the time to consider it. So he didn’t do it. He is also being harassed, and this may turn into a civil lawsuit based on things the lady said online that may cross into incitement.

      However, there is an NAACP fundraiser they do support, that will go to legal costs, instead of their general income.

        Around here the generally accepted rule is that toys lying around on the playground can be used by all kids. They just have to return them. Is this different in the US?

    Good that they’re losing the shame and outing themselves. It’ll make things way easier when the Nuremberg part comes. Just like in the 1930’s onwards.

    Yes, don’t just be a covert racist - say it openly and proudly to the world. That way we know who you are, and any retard defending you and making up excuses will have a harder time with it.

      Do you honestly believe the United States would ever hold Nuremberg style trials? I think we’ve been too far gone for a long time, I just hope I can flee the country in the next 5 years.

    That bitch is now a money piñata. Now that she has something to lose, suing her stupid racist ass to oblivion is WORTHWHILE.

        Come on, man. Surely you can’t be that ignorant to blame an entire nation of over 300 million people for this.

      The fact it is a significant fraction of his defensive fund is the depressing thing. But thanks for trying!

    Just when you think Americans can’t get any lower, they do it. Soon you’ll see that they make Russians look like Boy Scouts.

      This isn’t a baby step. This is someone saying, “Let’s murder all the Jews” and all the other Germans throwing money at them for saying it.

    Looks like a counter to the GoFundMe GiveSendGo of Karmelo Anthony, no?

    That was fuck up as well (albeit for a different reason).
