(336 posts)The hate still runs strong in Alabama. I was born and raised there and it has not changed much in the past 70 years. So very sad.

(6,265 posts)The RW has always lacked respect for POC. And damn sure, as in this snub, not wanting to be reminded of just how vicious and evil they are as racist representatives continuing the racial hate that plagues our nation and the world. The person of vice-President Harris sticks in the craw of a racist person such as this representative of the people of Alabama. She got the votes so I can safely say that a majority of Alabamans are disrespectful and obviously racist as their guvner....

That is money well spent, win or lose. Raising awareness will give sane Alabamians a real chance in the years ahead.

She did her a favor.

(9,260 posts)go to Alabama to play for a state that elects a racist piece of dung like this hag as their leader?
I understand it enhances their chances of being drafted, but I keep hoping someday they say enough is enough.

(54,056 posts)"No, I'm not in the slightest offended. I think it's perfectly understandable that the governor didn't have the time to meet me. After all, even governors need their hair done, their physical therapy, their help getting dressed, their psychiatric evaluations, and their saliva glands checked for drool. I'm perfectly fine with all this taking precedence over my little visit."
