apparently, this a-hole is extremely ignorant of the history of blackface. Moron.

Here’s another fun story!

http://www.cnn.com/2017/02/27/us/georgia-couple-confederate-flags-threats/

A Georgia couple who rode with a Confederate flag-waving group that made armed threats against African-Americans at a child’s birthday party were sentenced to prison Monday.

Jose “Joe” Torres, was sentenced to 20 years, with 13 years in prison, after a jury convicted him on three counts of aggravated assault, one count of making terroristic threats and one count of violating of Georgia’s Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act.

Kayla Norton was sentenced to 15 years, with six years in prison. She was convicted on one count of making terroristic threats and one count of violation of the Street Gang Act.

“Many people tried to make the case about simply flying the Confederate Battle Flag,” Douglas County District Attorney Brian Fortner said in a statement. “This case was about a group of people riding around our community, drinking alcohol, harassing and intimidating our citizens because of the color of their skin.”

You consider that a fun story???

Also it says “Jose “Joe” Torres, was sentenced to 20 years, with 13 years in prison”, and “Kayla Norton was sentenced to 15 years, with six years in prison” so what going on with the remaining 7 years him and the remaining 9 years for her?
