More education could prompt decision makers to nix KKK garb for police horses and thus avoiding having to call for accountability for such blatant stupidity.

We are underestimating our opponents when we assume they are all ignorant, uneducated.

Many of our friends and neighbors who seem reasonable, intelligent, educated are indeed very
anti-women, LGBT, POC.

It isn't about intelligence, it is about hatred, fear, greed.

They just will not stop! For someone who talks about us behind our backs, everyday damned day, calling us the n word and whatnot, and then pretending this has nothing to do with that hatred is just not believable.

Apparently black folks occupy a lot of space in these idiots' brains. A lot of space.
