imagine my shock as you can’t give an option in the middle ground. It’s my way or the highway all day with you guys. Apparently wearing a pin is too much for you, I have to completely divest myself of all money? No wonder no one can negotiate anymore lol. Gmafb

You demand we head towards the middle but you keep going further left. You are a hypocrite. Nobody is taking you seriously anymore.

On the flip side they see us(white america) as living in a fairly successful house that their ancestors built upon pain of death or worse. It’s not that hard to take 2 seconds in their shoes and come to a conclusion that you’d be ****ed too. Just saying “not my problem” while you(white america as a whole) are humming along with generational wealth (and all that entails socially) in your hip pocket, won’t be effective in garnering a solution.
if that’s not your thing, then fine, but do you have to stand in their way? Maybe they need broken and shattered streets to make a point. They’ve tried peacefully marching on DC over Floyd and NOT ONE piece of legislation has been passed.......it’s not hard to figure out and empathize with people that have felt their voice has not been heard for 50 years.
Put yourself in their shoes. If one black dude goes to work and sees Your standard pilot white guy in the cockpit wearing a BLM pin, and he suddenly feels like ****s ok today, isn’t that worth something?

So out of curiosity, other than sharing your insight and empathy what are you willing or already doing at the personal level to effect the necessary change?

Well. That really isnt something that requires much on your part. Even less viewed from the context of its the safe choice given the social dynamic.
real change is going to require individual commitment and contribution.
How about stepping up right now? So that 'black dude' isnt looking in cockpit at you sitting there with a blm pin on, but instead is sitting next to you as a delta pilot?
I have a young man who has just finished his PPL. I cut the $20k+ in checks to provide his start to end up sitting next to you.
he now needs someone to cosign his Salliemay loan for advanced training.
Unlike the actual out of pocket costs so far....your commitment will require no out of pocket funds. Just your assurance and vote of confidence in this young mans equitable opportunity and future.
So. How about it? You can PM me and I will make the connection. Ill offer the same opportunity to any of those here who share your advocacy for reconciliation of historical inequity.

just So I get this straight, I’m advocating wearing a pin and acknowledging a social issue our country is having and you go straight to co sign some dudes loan? Bob bob bob......you’ve lost it brother. Go take a breath and don’t reply angry.
all someone is doing is asking you to look through the lens of someone else and this is your line of attack. I’ve never asked you to wear a pin, I’ve asked you for nothing except to admit there is an issue that both sides aren’t doing shot to fix, and this is where you go?
yes bob, your are clinically internet insane, and just got trolled so hard you want a random guy to co-sign a lease to make a point
no wonder nothing gets done in Congress if it’s got a lot of bobs in it.

if you support trump you have no moral integrity. Period.
cheats on his wife-check
cheats on knowing the Bible-check
cheats on his sat-check
cheats people in business dealings-check
cheats on the draft-check
get the **** out of here with your moral high ground. It’s pathetic. The republicans sold out when they couldn’t just let the last election go and drown trump at the start. And you swallows it hook line and sinker. Shame on you. Moral high ground pffffttttt. Disgusting
