If America is so racist, then how come a wealthy white man has been lavishing me with gifts ever since his company started having cases before the Supreme Court, on which I sit?

5. Perhaps we should no longer . . .

. . . refer to it as the “Supreme Court?”

May your $300K motor home's septic holding tank blow up in your face.

9. That can't be real.

If it is then maybe he was an unworthy affirmative action student. He had to have bs'ed his way all the way to the Supreme Court if that question is really his and serious.
