Soap giant Procter & Gamble is standing by a controversial ad "The Talk" that has some whites in a lather and blacks showing clean support.

The ad, uploaded to YouTube last week, shows black mothers throughout the decades discussing racism with their children — and it was seen by some as having an anti-white message.

But the company disagreed with critics this week.

I'll be waiting for the ad where white parents talk to their kids about how many blacks will accuse them of being evil just because of their race, or will beat them for 'being white,' or will want their stuff for reparations for crimes they never committed, or accuse them or being responsible for the 'black condition' because of something their ancestors may or may not have done (even though their particular ancestors fought for and won their freedom).

Waiting...

How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

I'm tired of being told we've got further to go to make our society more inclusive. Whatever the hell that means.

We've gone plenty far enough. We're done. In fact we cannot go farther without resorting to totalitarianism.

Opportunity is there. Its time for the whiners to step up and take charge of their own lives now.

And for %$@ sake stop crying.

Wish I saved that piece on Educating your white children about the dangers of large groups of blacks.
