re: #79 Blind Frog Belly White

The last 10 years or so has caused me to reconsider my definition of ‘good person’. …

“Trayvon Martin chose the thug life, so he died a thug death”. or some of the more vile caricatures of Michelle Obama. People I thought of as more rational than the others there went total wingnut, right down to the ‘Bathhouse Barry’ stuff - while simultaneously also believing him to be a secret Muslim. The shit finally got too deep for me in about 2010. I look in occasionally, and it’s gotten worse.

Maybe it’s not as simple as ‘good people’ and ‘bad people’.

The Trayvon Martin bit in your post reminded me of something my one brother told me about my oldest brother who is as wingnutty as they come.

The two of them got into it about Zimmerman and Martin some time ago and my one brother said he couldn’t see the reason for Zimmerman to have felt threatened and if anything ZImmerman was the one who was threatening. Apparently, as he is wont to do when he gets all red-faced and foaming, oldest brother got all pissed off and yelled out “Did You See What He Was Wearing!!! Did you see that!!!

Fresh off Fox…years later. Oh those hoodies.
