************************************************************************************ I haven't kept up with the government's policies about Haitians because they usually enter through Florida and it never concerned me, but I do know that they have been treated differently throughout the years. I just found this article, it is old but still contains useful information: U.S. Immigration Policy on Haitian Migrants I feel that right now, because of their recent earthquake disaster, sending these people back to Haiti is WRONG!!! ********************************************************************************

************************************************************************************ ICYMI, this is in the news today: U.S. Ramps Up Plan to Expel Haitian Migrants Gathered in Texas I live on the U.S./Mexico border so I'm not thrilled about what is going on with unknown people coming here from who knows where being shipped all over the nation, with many of them remaining in my local area. One of the reasons I don't like it is because of the criminal elements, there's enough crime already going on here without importing more people who are in survival mode, who don't have any other option than to resort to illegal activities in order to eat. Supposedly, there are migrants coming in from 160 nations, and even though I don't want them here, I think it's unfair of the U.S. government to expel/deport one group but not the others, especially when it appears that this decision is being made because of skin color. If the government is going to expel/deport these people, then they should get rid of them all, not just the Black ones. Our government is a bunch of RACISTS!!! ************************************************************************************

***************************************************************************** That's so funny because I thought that as well. I thought that it was an actual thing and if not, maybe they were referring to Lipstick Alley or something. We don't have a Black social media platform, but we have Troy's forum, and thank God for that. BTW @Troy if you read this, I love this forum software, it works really smooth. I always think of that girl on the old forum that said your software was bootleg. Remember that? *****************************************************************************

***************************************************************************** Blacks are catching up with whitey: Black adults as likely as whites to say they have received a COVID vaccine *****************************************************************************

***************************************************************************** Joy Ann Reid looks foolish with her various wigs and when she opens her mouth it confirms that she's gone off the rails. Most of the things she says don't even make sense anymore. I don't care for Nicki either, but what she is saying needs to be said. Unfortunately, she's spent her entire career exposing her boobs and twerking her behind so most people don't take her seriously, and that's too bad because this topic is extremely important. Black people are NOT monolithic so individuals need to decide for themselves whether to take the COVID vaccine or not. *****************************************************************************

***************************************************************************** To me, as a common citizen, all of this is frightening. Social media is censoring our speech, search engine results are being manipulated to keep us in the dark, certain people are being blacklisted because of their opinions or political beliefs, with some platforms going so far as to shut down the President of the United States of America. Regardless of what anyone thinks of Trump, if they can shut down the president what chance does a regular person have of expressing their opinions? What has happened to our Constitutional right to freedom of speech when we can be shut down for any minor infraction, and they won't even tell us what we've done. And then you hear whispers that foreign agents have infiltrated many of these corporations and that they are behind these decisions, that foreign governments have wined and dined members of our news media, and that Americans aren't really in control anymore. https://thenationalpulse.com/news/exc-ccp-journalism-exchange-program-to-enhance-understanding/ It's like being in the Twilight Zone. All of this is scary as f*ck. *****************************************************************************

************************************************** @Delano This is an informative article so thanks for posting it. I think it is amazing that we can boost our immune systems by eating more healthy foods, and that we can even fend off a severe case of COVID. Most plant-based foods are not that expensive so there’s no valid reason why people are not eating more of them. I understand that everyone doesn't have access to fresh produce but most people do and we can even grow some of our own. This is a great motivator for us to eat better. **************************************************

********************************************************** I don’t follow her and didn’t know any of this. She’s a typical narcissistic turncoat, got her a little money, wrote a book, married whitey and forgot where she came from. **********************************************************

********************************************************** *************************************************************** Usually, two wrongs don’t make it right but sometimes it can. For example, if someone keeps messing with me and so I kick them in their face and then I feel better. It just feels right. Have you ever felt something was right when it should have felt wrong? This was just an illustration, I don’t actually kick people. Unfortunately bad things happen to innocent people, and I believe that you increase your chances of something untoward happening by engaging in risky behavior. A friend of mine was upset because she didn’t like the police but she got pulled over while driving. When I asked her about it she admitted she was speeding. If she didn’t want a police encounter, like most people, she would have driven at/under the speed limit. I love that movie Judge Dredd where the police are all those things. With the way that crime is spiraling out of control right now, and the court systems unable to keep up, that may be what is needed in our future. ***************************************************************

********************************************************** @Pioneer1 You blame Trump for inciting violence but look at how you Trump haters are always bullying and beating up Trump supporters just for wearing their MAGA hats and t-shirts. People should be able to wear Trump gear without fear of bodily harm. George Floyd didn't deserve what happened to him, that was one of the worst things ever, but if you keep messing around, something is eventually going to happen to you. Progressives are a branch of the Republican party, so you are really just a Republican at your core. I agree that arguing on forums has gotten old, so stop harassing @daniellegfny with the Uncle Remus pix. **********************************************************

************************************************** @Pioneer1 I know that you are being very serious with your comments, but you keep me in stitches. As to Trump being a racist, if you will recall before he became president, Al Sharpton, Russell Simmons, Kanye, Mike Tyson, Oprah Doprah, Don King, Puffy, and of course GlossLips, all associated with him. And other Blacks were friends with Trump as well. As soon as Trump became president, everybody’s calling him the biggest racist in the WORLD! But Biden called a Black staffer “BOY” a couple of weeks ago and y’all ain’t said nothing!!! Why. Is. That? **************************************************

***************************************** 'If I were a Democrat they'd be calling it a hate crime': Larry Elder slams the left for failing to call 'angry, ugly' attack by a woman in a gorilla mask racist because he's a Republican https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9976225/LA-Sheriff-slams-attack-Larry-Elder-hate-crime-blames-woke-privilege.html *****************************************

********************************************* @daniellegfny You must admit that Elder is rather uppity. Broadcasting on 300 radio stations and prime time television. Making commercials driving a speedboat, wind whipping through his hair. (Was he smoking a cigar, I don’t remember.) Challenging whitey, running for governor. And it is going to take much more than an angry egg cast his way to scare him off or stop him. The masked lady that threw the ovum should have been arrested. BTW current news reports are that Elder is in the lead. *********************************************

********************************************* @Troy Harry-type.. Is,, Fun!!! *********************************************

************************************************** @Troy I found it on am*zon. It's actually a tapestry/throw so it could be used on the bed/couch also. But who would want to squish Obama. It doesn't look like they carry it anymore. I'll let you know if I ever see it again. Or something similar. **************************************************

******************************************************* @Pioneer1 @daniellegfny Everybody doesn't want to see a titty @Pioneer1 I swear there was a local news article that said if you object in any way to a nursing mother you could be arrested. Of course, I can't find that article now. I remember after I read it I explained to my husband that if we are out and about somewhere and a woman pulls her boob out, he needs to be quiet. Because he speaks his mind and tells people where to get off in a minute. One time, he told a youngster to pull his pants up and I warned him that he's going to mess around and get shot if he doesn't mind his business. Here's another article about nursing. https://www.whattoexpect.com/first-year/breastfeeding/breastfeeding-in-public/ I'm not really bothered by it, I nursed my baby but I would never do it in public. Back then I was young and free-spirited but I wouldn't expose my boobs, not even to nurse. Now women act like they can't give their baby a bottle. I don' t know what they are thinking. I also feel that babies have the right to privacy, just like everybody else. *******************************************************

******************************************************* @Pioneer1 Your link was broken. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYwokUtb2Kg I appreciate your thoughtful replies. You are correct about that woman being able to nurse the baby, but I don't think that's why she was dressed that way. Here in Texas, women can nurse their babies openly, wherever and whenever they want, and if you look at them sideways, you are going to JAIL. BTW, I couldn't read a CO book. That sounds like the biggest drag ever. I'd rather read some Tolstoy. *******************************************************

********************************************* @harry brown I. Agree. With. Every. Thing. You. Said. But. People. Need. To. Get. Back. To. The. Old. Fashioned. Values. Of. Getting. Married! And. Stop. Getting. Pregnant. Having. Babies. Out. Of. Wedlock. *********************************************

******************************************************* @Pioneer1 If your momma is getting ready to go to the supermarket in a see-through dress and a thong, I would hope that you would tell her to put on some clothes. I don't care if she's grown, senile, blind or anything else. Some of these women (not your momma) don't have sense enough to know what is appropriate or not. I'm not sure what types of pix I can post here as examples so I won't. Checkout the Daily Mail and see what some of these trashy women are wearing to the awards shows. My husband and I went to a steakhouse three years ago, it was around 2:00 in the afternoon, there was a lady with a baby at the salad bar, wearing one of those JLo dresses (that green one she wore with Puff) that was slit down to the naval and no bra. The woman looked like a complete idiot trying to juggle her raggedy baby and keep her boobs covered with the all open in the front dress, trying to plate her food. It would have been different at nighttime if she was going to the club, but that dress was inappropriate for daywear. I don't need to worry about who makes the dress code rules at the supermarket, since I am properly attired wherever I go. It ain't no joke when I show up. *******************************************************

************************************************** @Pioneer1 I agree and I apologize for including all that but I am on my iphone and I just copied and pasted the news. I am very upset, this should not have happened. Life is so precious and it seems like people don’t care about themselves. Another celebrity, Fuquan Johnson, overdosed this weekend as well. I am so tired of this! **************************************************

Williams, 54, is found dead of suspected heroin overdose in living room of his Brooklyn penthouse surrounded by drug paraphernalia https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9963685/The-star-Wire-actor-Michael-K-Williams-dead-New-York-City-apartment.html **************************************************

************************************************** You give your posts a lot of thought but how about telling them to put some proper clothes on. **************************************************

************************************************** @Pioneer1 That question was rhetorical and I had no reaction other than my comments. Women exposing themselves is not about religion. It also is not about porn on television. It is about the real world. Do you want your woman, mother, sister, daughter going to the grocery store, restaurant, doctors office dressed with their boobs all out, because that is what women are doing now. I have seen it in person. Do you want your children/grandchildren’s school teacher coming to the classroom dressed like a floozy? This should not be a partisan issue. **************************************************
