[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The more these people speak out in public, the better it is for the cause of equity in this county. This is a really, really bad look for them. Media coverage will be embarrassing. Reasonable people in the middle will not want to be associated with them. Keep at it.[/quote]

I don’t think so.  The more you call them racist and segregationists, the weaker your argument becomes. This playbook is getting old. If everyone’s racist, then no one is a racist.  Plus no one believes that there are racists in MoCo. We’re waaaay to liberal for that. Everyone’s a fragile little snowflake here.[/quote]

The people that want these changes are basically saying “agree with me or you’re a racist segregationist”.  Attacking people that disagree with you isn’t a great way to win an argument.[/quote]

Some of the people who disagree actually are racist segregationists. And while others are not racist segregationists, they are nonetheless advancing racist and/or segregationist positions.

Maybe the people who are being called racist segregationists, and who don't like being called racist segregationists, should spend some time thinking about why they are being called racist segregationists.[/quote]
+1. There are definitely racists in that group, because I recognize the names as friends of friends who’ve made comments on other people’s pages, or from comments I’ve seen in other groups. And someone at that meeting last night called a black woman who is in the group a monkey. Under his breath but she heard it. Not everyone in that group is a racist. But they’re agreeing with racists and that’s a problem.[/quote]
