How about pardoning some black people still alive
This..How about pardoning some black people still alive
You will be a coon to the end, which could be any moment for your fat diseased ass.The Trump Family and the Obama Family are friends when political politics are put to the side.
You could. But honestly, at some point, time and resources have to be measured. I'm not even saying that it's right or perfect or whatever. But at the end of the day, the office of the President (a real, sane, working President) has plenty of stuff on its plate and lots of agenda to work through. You do what you do, but you have to draw a line somewhere.Can't we do BOTH?

Both actions can coexist. There is not limit on pardons. We can right the wrongs of both the living and the dead. JUST SAYIN....

I swear to god I hate you dumb fools here. Every chance you get, you project uneducated niggas try to bash Obama. Obama pardoned thousands of LIVING niggas and y’all upset because he didn’t focus on some sentimental pardon that doesn’t make a god damn difference anyway since Johnson is fucking dead?! Obama’s pardons can directly affect black families in a positive way and make a difference. Giving pardons to niggas where they can get back with their families means more than a fucking posthumous pardon. Really?! Damn..... no wonder we are at the bottom of the totem pole....most niggas are plain stupid.
For dumb ghetto trash like you niggas, Obama would’ve had to give reparations for a million dollars to every black person alive for you niggas to be happy.... we need more abortion clinics to eliminate dumb niggas like y’all from reproducing.
wow...I agree minus the self-hating remarks directed @ others...you also forgot “finally”

Let’s not overblow cheap pardons and meaningless apologies from cacs.
1: This is done to appease black people. Its really patronizing.
2: A pardon isn't a pardon for Jack Johnson but it's really the white man pardoning himself for his past inhumanity.
Society: "Hey we thinking of getting around to finally pardoning Jack Johnson and righting a civil injustice."
I'm also not thrilled about an admin that is outright hostile to black folks and poc in general doling out a pardon like this to placate us (and more importantly themselves "see we're not racist fucks!"). Jack Johnson is an American icon and everyone knows he was fucked over, a pardon would be nice but who gives af really?
I'm sorry...WHICH presidential administration has NOT been hostile to black folks?
I would like to know under which administration pardoning Jack Johnson would not be seen as a placating gesture...
Because if the only backlash is "Well it don't LOOK right coming from them!" then when WILL IT?
Oh, and symbolic gestures MATTER that's why people throughout history created monuments, statutes, etched their names into everything. That's why their are STILL Nazi hunters even though that shit went don't 70 years ago. That's why although I did not agree with everything Obama did he will always be my favorite president because SEEING a black man RUNNING SHIT visually holds ton of weight.

except it’s not “society”...it’s lying ass trump “considering” it @ the “behest” of racist ass sylvester stallone lol no need for me to post gifs
I get what you're saying, but note I didn't say anything about running out of time. You manage your time and your resources.That's a vapid argument cause people make time for shit they want to get pushed through all the time -ESPECIALLY in politics.
TONS of people have been pardon literally on the way out the door who were little more than 'boys' of the Commander in Chief or a favor owed, asked, or called in so I give very little weight to "Well I just ran out of time..." argument in the cause of pardons. THAT'S BULLSHIT.

So you're of the 'apology not accepted' crowd because the underlining incentives of doing so may help the person righting the wrong as well.
You don't think it's a genuine gesture of apology, correct?
If so...HOLY SHIT that is a lot to unpack.
So if your house was burning down you would turn away help from the fire department because your racist neighbor called them and the underlining reason for putting out your fire was that it doesn't catch on to his house.
That's how politics and life WORKS fam.
jack johnson being pardoned posthumously is not a live saving gesture...horrible analogy...stick to the gifs...if my neighbor’s ancestors burned down my great grandfather’s house and my neighbor admitted it was wrong of his ancestors to do so while still flying a confederate flag on his porch...I’d be inclined not to give a fuck about his apology
I think I'm getting at what you're getting at.
So Jack Johnson SHOULDN'T be pardoned?
I'm confused....
He and Marcus Garvey should be pardoned, we’re just acknowledging that a racist petitioned Trump to do it.
idk how the assumption jumped to me not thinking he should be pardoned instead of to me being surprised by who suggested it
Link immediatelySylvester “This fucking nigger here” Stallone??
That Pogo nigga is a faggitno you’re not...my stance was clear from the beginning...you’re just insisting on one thing bcuz of your failure to look @ the whole picture...if jack johnson gets pardoned then “great”...I’ve NEVER said it shouldn’t be done assuming trump even follows thru w/ it...but what’s wrong in questioning his sincerity or the irony of him doing so and how does that equate in your mind to saying johnson doesn’t deserve a pardon?
imo this was already discussed/clarified on the first page...
Always rememberLetting the banks off the hook and not pardoning these two men had me like... "Yo what the FUCK!?!" when it came to Obama.
Among other things...

Man he ain’t intimidating nobody with them bold letters and big Gifsna dude is cool...it’s not even that serious
He could’ve also give his salary to the poor and gave his right kidney to some renal failure nigga. Just stfu. I’m tired of you crabs in a barrel coons.Couldn't he done both?
Righted the wrongs of both the living & the dead? Plus I'm not putting that on Obama completely. Fuck that fat fuck Taft who signed the Mann Act (Aka the "White Slave Act") into law and fuck EVERY president who let that shit slide.

And if this Orange Fat Fuck in office pardons Jack Johnson then this will be the ONLY positive thing I'll have to say about him minus my daily "Well, he hasn't started WW3 yet.....Right?" as I turn on the news.
