there's thing called forgiveness..

It's the 80s, everyone, including your parents, grandparents, celebrities etc were racist, homophobic and basically pretty awful people, (it's the time were people, mainly celebrities and rich people, tried to legalize pedophilia for example), those people had to learn to be tolerant and to understand their mistakes and to be better people and actually this is what happened with many democrats or many celebrities for example.. if you knew how many people were racists and changed their ways during their lives, you would be shocked...

The ideas to stop racism and hate is a process that everyone had to go through from those times, including the people that important to us.

Forgiveness is irrelevant in politics. 

Purely due to optics I’m leaning towards him resigning.

A party that is supposed to condemn racism and be more inclusive would look bad if they simply ignored this about one of their own.

You can’t criticize Trump and overlook this. Doesn’t work that way.

He’s a Democrat

Doesn't matter. He concealed what he did from the voting public. Let the Lt Give take over, who BTW is black and if he wants to run again later with the entire truth then let him. He already apologized but now he needs to resign. I don't care that he is a democrat.

I was simply informing you he was Dem haha

A few things: 

1. A MED SCHOOL yearbook??? Seriously! 

2. He should resign.

3. Whomever is in charge of GOP opposition in Virginia needs to be fired. How is this coming out just now?? All they had to do was go to a library and find this pic.

I was JUST thinking this. Opposition research in the future will be even easier because we'll just be able to go through people's social media and find things from their past to attack them on.

Girl please. We made Al Frankenstein resign. We will make this governor resign as well. 

Your truth is not fact.

[Harris Walz 2024 1,451]

He's only sorry that he got caught. He hasn't even said which person in the picture is him. He should have divulged this early in his political career and let the chips fall where they may. The line has to be drawn somewhere and he definitely crossed it.

[Lion Heart 15,041]

He's done. 

How could anyone be so stupid?? 'YEA, let me take this pic IN BLACKFACE (or KKK hood).'

That’s ridiculous. My parents and other relatives did not dress up in black face or put a white hood on for fun. It was racist then and it is now. 

 

He can be forgiven, but he must live with the consequences of decisions he made as an adult. He doesn’t deserve to be the governor of the state of Virginia.
