Hensley also attempted to defend herself by saying one of her friends with her at the bar that night was Black: “They probably have every right to kick me out,” she told News 8. “If you don’t want me at your bar, that is what it is. But also, the man that was with me was an African American male. He was wearing a Trump hat.”

Right, I forgot the "B" in LGBTQ stands for "Black." It's a toss-up as to whether these people are actually this fucking stupid or just addicted to attention, but either way words cannot describe the amount of contempt I have for them.

"I can't be a bigot, I have this one black person I'm willing to call a friend!"

"He's a trump supporter, so he's one of the good ones"

I'd say they took inspiration from President Musk and are just happy owners of their own Meatshield. They just bought the black model, not the child model.

Is she saying the blackness cancels out the bigotry? Like if you wanna be publicly abhorrent to a group of people, you need at least one oppressed minority checkmark on the books?

I think she's saying that because he's black he's "untouchable" otherwise it's discrimination. It's the incorrect logic they use when arguing DEI. They think just because someone's black it means they get a free pass to do whatever they want and if someone tries to stop them, they can pull the "race card". (Note I don't agree with this at all, I think this is just the way this person's brain worked based on that quote)
