Sorry about the "army" comment Squid. LOL! Marines didn't care who was driving (truck, plane or ship) as long as they were being driven to the fight.
I agree with the rights of people but this guy wearing the pig socks took it to a level much like the vermin who threw the watermelon on your neighbors lawn. That is a racist or bigoted statement.
You're also very much correct that all of the typing, hyping and talking is never going to end racism in America as long as there are extremist groups on both sides such as the KKK, Aryan Nation, BlM and Black Panthers. Then you have the smaller minded asshats like those who trashed your neighbors today.
The best any of us can do is try to get along with those in or circle and to spread as much good will as we can.
