Didn't vote for him nor do I plan to but I'm going to give him a pass on this. People are too sensitive. What if some non black kid really likes Black Panther, is he not allowed to wear the costume to go trick or treating? Is someone going to get pissed at my Gingy from Shrek costume? LOL

His costume isn't even historically accurate, Aladdin was Chinese before Hollywood turned him middle eastern.

BAHAHAHAAAA!!!
Scheer calling for resignation? I can't believe people are actually taking this seriously. It's a costume. Get over yourselves. Maybe focus on shit that actually matters.

God forbid they ever take comedy from us. Just about the only thing keeping people sane anymore.
Now I'm gonna go watch White Chicks and laugh hysterically at some Wayans brothers being overtly racist

I really don't care, but it is humerous seeing the cancel culture folks being hypocrites over this.
Look at this photograph

Well ... JT was very quick to apologize, if he didn't think it was a big deal, he wouldn't (eg. SNC Lavalin). He could have held his ground and said I was trying to save jobs by putting on brown face costume.

Or, he could have used that other line, "I've been reflecting very carefully on what I remember from that incident almost 20 years ago and again, I am ... I feel I am confident that I did not act inappropriately."

The real shock for me was that Les Grossman was Tom Cruise.

Can't believe I left out White Chicks.

I was just perusing the Google critic comments and it is a treasure trove of pure gold!

It's just amazing you know? The complexities of the movie and its meanings is just beyond us. It is well beyond its time. For example, Terry Crews represents that one guy that is always there for you. That's just one of the BILLIONS of deep meanings and messages of the movie.

I don't understand why critics gave this such a low rating. The movie should be at least 11/10 in IMDb, 100% in Rotten Tomatoes, and 100% in Metacritic. Anything otherwise is just wrong.

The Left was warned, when they odopted identity politics and cancel culture in attempts to seize power, that their opposition would use those same tactics against them.
While there may be some who are actually morally outraged by these latest developements, most seem to be just flipping the playbook to hold Trudeau and his ilk to their own standards.

Quote:
Ezra Levant@ezralevant
You know what's actually more racist than Trudeau wearing blackface?

Worse than him doing so twice?

Trudeau bragging to the media that he deliberately chose to cut an Aboriginal man's hair in order to humiliate him.
https://youtu.be/8-VDpMx9Xo8
Quote:
“He resisted back a little bit, you know, pointing out that hair has a cultural significance for First Nations peoples, and I said ‘I know. That’s why I proposed it’. When a warrior cuts his hair, it’s a sign of shame, so it’s very apropos.” Justin Trudeau

Another one?

If you were OK with it, it really doesn't matter if it is 1 or 2, or 3 or 10 times. But that guy sure likes his costumes!

Fat shaming? Might want to delete if you ever intend on running for office. If not, no worries, leave it there.

Yeah, the dude was a drama teacher, definitely committed, he could have spun it in a way of him appreciating the culture somehow? He even painted his hands I noticed on some of the pics.

I think just like the majority of you guys where it's not going to change the way I vote (btw. not voting liberal), and it shouldn't matter.

I'm wondering where these photos were during the last election cycle, or how much he paid to keep these suppressed during the last election cycle.
