Her lawyer, however, is saying that she IS, and was born in Hackensack, NJ, and has a U.S. passport----surely he kn... |

Please give the URLs to his convictions.
Secondly, Ford never accused him of rape!
Lastly, one of the women recanted her statement.
So, now, you wanna tell us how there's three women, again.

What about Vanilla Ice, Post Malone, Riff Raff, Iggy Azalea (female), and Kid Rock----and those are only the ones I can think of off the top of my head, and I'm nowhere NEAR a Rap fan; and I'm sure... |

| No, I didn't, really, know all of that. I only knew that when someone put on a minstrel show, they blackened their face, and sang "Mammy", or "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot", or whatever. AFAIC, it doesn't matter, though. I still say one can CHOOSE to wallow in it, or let it roll off... |

| I don't really understand why black-face hurts people. I mean, it can't hurt someone, unless they give it power to hurt them. To me it's just like when a kid gets called four-eyes, or buck-toothed, or shorty----or any number of other things. One can let it roll off them, or they can wallow in it, a... |
