        He’s a grown man and he just now learning this lesson? I don’t think so. He’s only saying this because he was caught. This is the type of person he is, those are his beliefs. Good luck.

        What a joke of an incident, I like offensive memes all the time and if you can’t handle it then just don’t follow them. Controlling the thoughts of others is disgusting to try to do.

        You’re allowed to enjoy whatever you like...however, don’t get all pissy when everyone calls you out for being a racist, misogynist, or xenophobic.

        😂😂😂, Cuck God! Yea, see, if you do anything in a public forum then it’s fair game to be scrutinized. I’m assuming you’ve been a “victim” of this in the past. Best advice, try not being a shitty human being.

        If you do anything on a public forum is okay to be harassed about? That logic makes you a shitty human being. Harassment is the sign of a shitty person.

        Yeah pointing out the hypocrisy he displayed by alleviating problematic statements by his friends and a pastor. Racist and sexist statements that he tried to marginalize because they were done by people he personally knew.

        And so you harassed him for it...which is all fair game mind you, but coming at me and saying it’s wrong minded to harass someone on a public forum is like the pot calling the kettle black. It doesn’t add up. So MAYBE you’re just as shitty as everyone else here? Thoughts?

        Wait....mindless?? When you hit that double tap you agree with the content on some level. Let's not try to front and down play the situation.

        he suddenly became aware only because he was called out on it. If nothing else, this misogynist, racist and reprehensible bully (for attacking victims of Parkland) should at least stand by his convictions, but like a slug after his rock is turned over, he freezes.

        He likes things I might not agree with. That does not make him a bad guy. I wish the "thought police" would take an extended vacation.
