Pundit claims blacks had it worse before Civil Rights...

The worst part about this moron?
He's black.

Jesse Lee Peterson: African Americans Were Better Off Before Civil Rights

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Thursday, 5/14/2015 11:00 am

Conservative talk show host Jesse Lee Peterson told WorldNetDaily in an interview today that African-American “civil-rights leaders” are “worse than the Ku Klux Klan and skinheads combined,” blaming them for the recent riots in Baltimore. WND notes that Peterson believes “that African-Americans are worse off now than they were before the civil rights movement.” The right-wing pundit told the outlet that African Americans can only make progress once they “overcome their false sense of victimhood and stop blaming whites.” “Modern-day civil-rights leaders are the worst enemy of black Americans,” he charged. “These black ‘leaders’ are worse than the Ku Klux Klan and skinheads combined.”

I guess the one positive is he apparently thinks the KKK and skinheads are bad. If stupidity were painful, this dipshit would have a headache Excedrin couldn't handle.

Maybe we can figure out a way to send Peterson back to the Jim Crow era. I don't think he would have his own TV or radio show. Segregationists would welcome his comments opposing racial civil rights, but that wouldn't stop them from burning a cross on his lawn. Or worse.

Hannity brings him on his show every time he wants to stir racial shit. This guy is so idiotic that even Hannity argued with him about his position on the black man shot 8 times in the back and killed! Of course it was the victim's fault, you know. He had no right to turn his back on a cop. The guy is one of the stupidest people I've ever seen.
