No I wasn't talking pro child labor. You RUN away when you get called out.
 
So you make a comment about someone enjoying blacks getting killed but you support the group that fights cops from getting charged and don't want to talk about what you've EVER done for the black community other than spitting on a black person.
 
you guys hate unions just like Mussolini hated Unions.



you want 10 year olds carrying buckets of melted glass for 12 hours a day huh
