Here's what I see......

For so long, many people have "gone along to get along" when it comes to cultural issues. They don't agree with them, but when it doesn't directly affect them, they just let it slide.
CRT is different. It IS affecting anyone with kids in school. And, it affects everyone else because it has seeped not only into schools, but business and the military as well.

So, those of us who have been tolerant and have sat by are finally speaking up. And, the hard left liberals don't like that. They don't know how to respond. And, as a result, they are losing on this issue.

You better believe it is important. And, it is not fear mongering. When some in positions of power think that race is the driving issue behind nearly everything, people will not stay silent.

And, as for slavery - I am in my 60's and you damn well better believe I learned about slavery. And, the horrors of slavery. It wasn't whitewashed as some would claim. And, to what is probably a surprise to you - I was educated in the south.

Now, for the caravan comment......There are no caravans, but there are a record number of encounters at our border. The number grows every month, despite the fact that it is summer and the numbers generally go down. it is predicted we will have over 200,000 encounters in July. And, this is all due to Biden and Harris. They have no border policy. They have f'ed it up royally. And, they will pay in the midterms for this crisis as well as they others they are causing. They can't be out of office soon enough.

Parents have been ignited to vote red in VA over school issues. Mark my words.


I’m with you. A ride or die Democrat for youngkin. Time to signal that we are paying attention and that the wacky stuff - whether school closures or looting- has gone too far, thanks.


Looting? How much “looting” was there in VA?



Sure, “Democrat”.


I absolutely WAS a Democrat up until a car was stolen and shots were fired just outside my door. I moved to VA recently and am not eager to see VA start to be like DC on a whole host of different issues. Seems the best route to a sane local government is to vote R.


We are discussing a candidate for the VA governor, not local elections.

Try again, “D”.

DP.
If you think that a governor has no influence in policies that impact crime in localities, you haven't been paying attention.

I have been paying attention.

And what really stands out are the Rs trying manufacture “issues”.

Anonymous
The Rs didn’t craft the 1619 Project, mandatory DEI training in just about every segment of professional life, and the introduction of CRT-driven initiatives into public education (which is distinct from teaching CRT as an academic discipline). The left did that, and the effort on the part of many Ds like McAuliffe to ridicule those who find these efforts unsetting - because to varying degrees they treat the country as fundamentally flawed from its inception and/or point towards an explicit redistribution of private wealth and resources held by White and “White-adjacent” groups to ADOS - has backfired. Simply put, the elites in politics and the media badly misjudged the rate at which the general public would agree these are appropriate ways to look at the country’s history and chart its future. And most bristle at the implicit threat by some partisans to ratchet up their rhetoric even further unless they get exactly what they want.

Because Youngkin seems to have a better appreciation of this than McAuliffe, whose entire political career has been based on patronage and trading favors, he has a good chance of winning. His main weakness is his position on abortion rights, which is at odds with a libertarian view and is a make-or-break issue for many women.

so Youngkin doesn't want DEI training? What are his positions? Can you point to where he states his position on abortion? Can you point to where he states his position on anything?

Very well said. Ultimately, I just don’t think that enough voters in nova and other deep blue parts of the state will be able to hold their nose and vote for the Republican. The Macker knows this.

And, this is all due to Biden and Harris. They have no border policy. They have f'ed it up royally. And, they will pay in the midterms for this crisis as well as they others they are causing.

I'm always fascinated by conservatives' view of themselves as long-suffering proponents of tolerance when the actual record shows they bomb churches and abortion clinics and run over protestors when they don't get their way.

WRONG

Who exactly do you want in office? Republicans, who are traitors to the US who wanted to install kING TRUMP while hanging Mike Pence?

Republicans have zero policies to run on they are clearly anti-police, anti-military, no health plan, border LOL Trump's contractors are already in legal trouble for embezzlement. Spare us your garbage. Biden and Harris are doing fine. The only thing they have done wrong is put Merrick Garland in office who is a massive failure for not arresting Mo Brooks, Cruz, Hawley, Boebert, Gosar Treason is a crime on the books and they committed Treason. MTG needs to go. Gaetz as well.

Again spare us your lies.

You and I are about the same age. I’m waiting for our generation to die off so things finally get better. You really don’t get it. Too many in our generation don’t and never will.

Sure. Lump all Republicans into a basket of wrong doing that a handful of people are responsible for.

And, we'll lump all Democrats into the basket of rioters, looters, and murderers who were responsible for over 2 billion dollars of damage in the summer of 2020 and the deaths of many.
