Title: #BoycottBeyonce
Post by: Die_Endermen on 15 February 2016, 10:13:42 PM
First off, I haven't posted in a while. I'm going to start up a debate which most of you have some knowledge about. This whole incident is about a performance at the 50th Super Bowl by the Queen B. If you don't mind, these are my views:

omg beyonce is anti-police she supports shooting black police officers omg!!!!  this is anti-white and everyday we are killed for being white!! what a disgrace lets all get into formation & kill all z black ppl! we will not stand for racism against white ppl!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea what on earth you're talking about but I know that I don't care what about some lady's performance during the half time of something I've never watched.

@Akomine I believe it was was that the dancers uniforms and formation was honoring Malcolm X and the Black Panthers.

That's what Fox News or whatever you watch tells you. She was just honouring her culture and was proud of being black then some bigoted conservatives got very mad and misinterpreted the song/performance, @gerrit70.

Also, Newsela isn't the best source for something like this, because Newsela is more oriented for children and younger people, we use it at school for news articles and weekly grades.

@Die_Endermen  I did not take a stance on the issue, so I do not know why you are throwing arguments at me. Also I chose Newsela because it was the most straight forward thing I could find
