I'm not going to dig into the Nick Cannon stuff - partly because I don't care about him; partly because I'd be perfectly happy with his show going off the air.
My point is not about whether you like him or not, my point was that fact that Cancel Culture did not go after him the way they would have had he been a white guy

Fair enough. If you say people who work outside are less likely to have to deal with the general public, I won't argue the point.

Meanwhile, those of us who do deal with people every single day need to behave ourselves.

Are you saying that those who don't are 'misbehaving'?

You seem pretty certain about what an entire culture would hypothetically do.

The same people who say things like that are the same ones who condemn those who stormed the Capitol building.
The people that stormed the Capitol building. Was heavily brained washed by Trump and the people that allowed trumps lies to keep going. I pity the people that stormed the Capitol building. And feel many of them didn't serve God, like they thought they they did. But served Trump and his liars.
Is violence (and even WAR) only viable for one side?
Colin Kaepernick and many people tried to peaceful protest. There protest didn't stop police violence. What else must happen.

At least they were the minority. A great number of people attended the rally. Few of them went to the capitol building, fewer entered. Even among those who entered, not all of them were violent--just walking around taking pictures and videos. The media likes to focus on the violence and then paint all Trump supporters as being just like them.

Well, what would you like? A war? You mentioned that in post #29. But a war with who, and how would it be carried out? Would all people with colored skin be expected to commit acts of violence against those who are white? That certainly wouldn't help with racial relations.

Colin Kaepernick wasn't protesting the election, he was trying to distract people from examining the "root cause" of police violence against blacks. Ironically his 'do' is actually symbolic of the problem.

How 'bout if criminals quit committing crimes??? I'll bet that'll go a long way in preventing police violence.

Including the criminals who wear badges? Sure, let's try it.

In the interest of being fair and balanced, the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers stormed the Capitol, but they didn't stop Biden's election. Violence doesn't always work either -- and terrorism has a 100% backfire rate.

Let's hope the 'political' terrorism of the Left proves this as well in 2022.

What 'political' terrorism specifically are you afraid of?

I'm pretty much safe from their tactics. My employer is conservative and his business isn't subject to 'woke' or pc political scrutiny.

People are losing their jobs and careers by not embracing the socialistic policies of the Left.
