A great portion of those evil racist white people that elected for Trump put Obama in power for two terms. He couldn't have gained power without white votes. But now all the whites are racist? Derp ok.
Huffington Post can take the race baiting, demographic blaming page they were handed from the DNCs playbook and shove it straight up their ass.

I don't disagree with the site, I was curious about the issue. I've seen a few people wearing safety pins on their shirts/lapels and was wondering what other people thought? What about the issue that they are trying to bring awareness to? To me it is a hollow gesture.
One more thing, this Safety Pin campaign was not started as a response to Trump. It was started as a response to Brexit and the racism displayed after the vote. It was adopted in the US to counter Trump's racism. I also don't see it as casting all white people in one group.
