The U.S. conservative political commentor Candace Owens was refused a visa to enter New Zealand for a speaking engagement because she had been banned from another country, immigration officials said Thursday.
News of the ruling came weeks after neighboring Australia also rejected her visa request, citing remarks in which she denied Nazi medical experimentation on Jews in concentration camps during World War II.
Owens is scheduled to speak at a series of events in several Australian cities and in Auckland, New Zealand, in February and March next year. Tickets remain on sale and there is no acknowledgement on the promoter’s website that she has been refused entry to both countries.
Democrats are right. Why is this even a question? Ask almost any person of color since you seem to think anecdotes trump data.
I mean for fuck’s sake, the country just elected a racist who is putting a bunch of racists in his cabinet.
I can see what they think by reading your source.
Is the election of Obama proof positive of the US’ lack of racism? Or does it not work both ways?
Regardless, my assertion is that (most) people didn’t vote for him because of his racism. They voted for him in spite of his racism because they actually think he’ll make the country better. You and I know damn well Trump isn’t going to make anything better but that doesn’t stop them from believing it (sound familiar?).
Do you believe that Republicans, given the choice between Candice Owens and $whiteLeftyOrDem, Republicans are going 3rd party or voting $whiteLeftyOrDem? I assert they’d vote for Candice.
