PAT ROBERTSON HAS DECLARED RACISM IS DEAD IN AMERICA!!!!!....DAMN WHO KNEW????!!!!


November 29, 2014 |




It’s been a trying week for social justice activists after a grand jury declined to indict Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson for the shooting death of Michael Brown. An unfortunate and clear side-effect has been inflamed racial tensions. But that's not so obvious to Pat Robertson, who told his 700 Club audience that racism is actually dead.

Speaking to the viewers of his Christian Broadcasting Network show, the 84-year-old media mogul and Southern Baptist minister declared that black Americans have it pretty good these days.










you tell them Pat. roflmao. I should've had a V8
