I don't even know what the hell "juneteenth" even is. Is it wrong that I don't really even want to know?

"What are you doing to celebrate and commemorate Juneteenth?"
Will be starting off with a couple cups of coffee, followed by usual morning constitutional. Looking forward to it and praying all comes out well.

I like going to the grocery and watching the wome..., uh females with their passel of rug rats struggling with their calculators with frowns of concern and worry marking their faces while trying to figure out if they loaded up a few hundred more in steaks and shrimp and frosted flakes and OJ than what their $700 in food stamps will pay for.

you guys do realize it's all white peoples fault ....... you went along with it.... allowing a small fraction of the population to rule over you .... squelching your free speech via illegalizing a fkn word used for centuries
same as just what happened with the phaggs & misc perverts to run all over your free speech
C'mon 'Merica ...... do something

For those who are not aware as to the origins of "Juneteenth": on 19 June 1865, U.S. General Gordon Granger arrived by a U.S. Navy ship and docked at Galveston, Texas. In front of the Customs House, he read an order declaring that with the surrender of the Confederate Trans-Mississippi Department by Confederate General Edmund Kirby-Smith on 26 May 1865, that the war was officially over and Texas was officially in control by U.S. military forces and therefore the Emancipation Proclamation was now in effect. All former slaves were now free. What is seldom mentioned is included in this speech is instructions that all former slaves need to find employment to support themselves. Hence, since this happened on the 19th of June, the then former slaves in Texas started celebrating 19 June as their emancipation day, which in slang became known as "Juneteenth". As a matter of note: Slavery was still legal and practiced in the states of Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland where it was not abolished until ratification of the 13th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution in January(?) 1866.

Only the “never heard of Foghat” dumbfukks on here would be the ones not aware of the origins of Coonteenth. Those and yankees and few other 10x10 shed dwelling miserable foucks. Been hearing people yapp about this since I was 5 years old. Then again, I lived in Savannah Ga as a kid. Only white kid in 3rd grade. Makes me tough though.
