  1. this dude is pathetic race baiting screaming racism. bunch of spoiled brats who take no accountability for their actions and think they can get away with breaking laws. Meanwhile Riley Gaines gets assaulted by your people and you crying about this, she gets more respect than you Lames, bunch of softies …Oh they pushed me, oh they are racist give me a break , trans people assaulting and attacking people in front of police and nobody gets arrested,. shooting up schools and the president and the secretary standing up for this behavior…. WHERES THAT SAME ENERGY?? Cowards the world is watching and they are definitely not siding with you folks

  2. amen, thepresident of the NAACP is so right…the United States need to look in the mirror before they point the finger ath other countries!
    hypocriets thats what they are…clean up your own back yard before your tell someone to clean up their back yard!
    It's a shame and a disgrace

  3. Those two men are just as much victims as the "Q-Anon Shaman".

  4. This guy is a real freaking JOKE

  5. Trying to incite a riot in a parliament is a crime. Left/right or center. Fact. The laws must be respected.

  6. There are lawyers within the Tennessee lawmakers —ask for the licenses of each lawyer who denied the guaranteed rights of humans to exist, and to speak, the expressions in fact,
    moved Tennessee toward slavery —

  7. How can a black person serve a party that owned you,hung you,segregated you,and continues to oppress you?How can you profiteer off of the misery of your own people.

  8. The Blacks don't like negative stereotypes. So they have legislators using bullhorns to block others from using their time to talk reinforcing those steryotypes.
    Is what is good for the goose good for the gander? What happens if Bull Horn Bullies show up at the city council's events and voice their speech making it impossible for business to be conducted? Legislators have a limited amount of time to make their point, so other legislators can speak. Bull Horn Bullies prevent others from speaking. If they are in Blackface, will that make it OK?

  9. Republicans fault ban guns we hate gop

  10. I appreciate his concern but I don't think this is actually about race issues so why is NAACP saying this? This is about cracking down on crimes and about citizens rights to self defense.

  11. 2023 USA 17 school shootings in 3 months. 1996 UK 1 in 27 years. 1923 New Zealand 1 in 100 years.

    Should Americans be banned from international travel to restrict the spread of stupidity and gun violence?

    46 Ukrainians are killed each day in Putin's senseless war. 44 Americans are killed each day by other Americans in no war.

  12. Aotearoa, New Zealand and Aotearoa New Zealand are all official names for my country.

    Kia Ora (Be well) is our official greeting. Our anthem is sung in Māori and English. NZ currency has Māori and Pākehā shown on the notes.

    Even once apartheid South Africa, has now been ruled by dark brown for 39 years and has an anthem containing several local languages.

    The US has No official indigenous greeting, The Land of the Brave on Reservations and not shown on currency. Why does America refuse to grow up?

  13. HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

  14. Of course it was a political lynching by the GOP.

  15. He obviously doesn't know what an actual "lynching" involves, or has a habit of using inflammatory language which doesn't apply to simple restoration of order in a Legislature.

  16. Oh it's all about race. I'm surprised you haven't arrested those who voted their removal. No consequences for the kkk? I'm certain that's suicidal but do you Tennessee. The world knows America has a Republican problem. Their at war. Stealing our nation from under us. Lets do the right thing and retake Tennessee from the kkk.

  17. We should forcibly remove the entire Republican party for sedition. Whoever is innocent gets released. Should be one maybe two.

  18. You know you're talkin to a professional race Hustler Al sharpton's little brother….. Sorry pal but nobody's being lynched coming from the same people and trans women are women…. And now you got a couple clowns that went to bring protesters to work with them…… And cause chaos when they could just do their job and get a lot more done….. But instead we get the carnival Barker sideshow the movie of the a couple of up-and-coming victim maker s ….. Trying to make a name for themselves they should be embarrassed for their childish behavior anybody else brings a protest to their job I would be fired just as they should be

  19. NAACP is an unconstitutional group that discriminates based on race. It should be disbanded.

  20. The tRump MAGA NRA GOP Cult is pure evil. They sell Fear and Hate. The idiots are alienating the younger generations

  21. Speak my brother!!!! We parade around and shine bright lights on other countries indiscretions, yet we fail to walk-the-talk our selves, actually we just talk and show how corrupt our democracy is, the racism of the country.
