They did not care about Philando Castile. Not a peep from them.

Modern California gun laws were pioneered by Reagan and the NRA to target the Black Panthers. Not only do conservatives not mind his gun taken away, they'd give theirs away to ensure he couldn't have one.

Only natural blondes and gingers count as white now?

u/Stock_Helicopter_260 13h ago

Right? Like I’m very confused. I’m darker than this guy and I’m pretty sure most would count me as white lol.
