Hey, give the man a break! It was the 80s. He was probably doin' coke.
He has to go ! He cannot survive this ! No way .
Just weird that this picture never leaked during his run for governor but one day after his controversial infanticide interview that dems like pelosi & others denied not hearing this it came out & immediately the dems outcry for him to resign !
Americans better worry about 2 weeks of below zero which will kill many Americans,kill economy,you can't fight racism if you are dead,build a wall,run up deficits into space,42 trillion, build a wall.
So this happened in 1984?!!! And this governor hasn't resigned yet? What planet is he on. Happened in 1984 people. Please black face, Klu Klux Klan in 1984. Wake up.
If society will only tolerate leaders who have never made a bad judgement in their entire life then we are doomed! Malicious intent & consistent pattern of wrong actions matter more than a photo. If not, I will be a lifelong thief for stealing candies from my school friends.
This level of intolerance and political correctness is insane. People should not lose their careers because of an old yearbook photo, whether it be Northam or Kavanaugh. One cannot right a historical wrong (racism) and appease some by randomly crucifying others now.
When do Republicans call for Trump to resign?
2019, and this is what people are upset about? Blackface stopped airing on prime time tv between 1978-1981. As wrong as we see it today, this behavior was widely excepted, how are we supposed to grow past Racism if we cherish the past. I say we get him out because he is a Dem.
Wake up America‼️‼️‼️This so called pediatric neurologist Dr wants to KILL babies.........The yearbook stunt is sick‼️
Why resign? He fits right in with mainstream Democrat history.
FACT: It wasn't OK 30+ years ago. FACT: It's not OK now!
If you are going after anyone for being racist I think you ought to start with that shallow vacuous orange agent for the Russians in the wh
ImpeachVA
My problem with this is simple....I can dig out my high school yearbook from 1976 and identify many of the people on any page. And my college yearbook I can actually identify most of the folks on any page I’m on. As kids you studied those thing as soon as you got them!
This is being blown completely out of proportion. Come on it happened 35 years ago.
I guess to Republicans rape is good, they support a serial sexual predator who wants to have sex with his daughter, but this crosses a line.
What about the photographer? What about the head of Journalism at the school? The principal? Shouldn't they all be made to pay?
What a joke. Infanticide isnt the topic but blackface Michael jacksin is a dealbreaker huge discussion point. Dems are without soul and lost.
Wouldn’t it be nice if Americans could discuss racism and prejudices without becoming hysterical, shrill, and overturning elections? I think so.
A comedian turned politician fake grabs a boob he is forced to resign but this pieceof shit spread the imagery a long history of hate and a group that murdered people because of the color of there skin gets to apologize don’t get it
The significance of 1984 is not lost on me
No. You cannot earn my forgiveness by insulting my intelligence. Moonwalk your way out of the Governor’s mansion. NorthamResign
He was about to break dance!!
They want gov RalphNortham of Virginia to resign over something he did 34yrs ago when he was 25yrs? Tell us something the man did recently to justify your move. I wonder how many ppl would stand test, if we were all judged by things we did 30yrs ago or as youths. Politics
I'm shocked, the media is accurately calling racism by its name. I'm so used to seeing 'racially-charged', 'racially-insensitive' and other terrible euphemisms.
When the pussy grabber resigns for his CURRENT language and behavior and Brett Kavanaugh resigns for “liking beer” then we can talk about Northam.
He shouldn't resign over a photo taken that long ago. I'm sick of all this digging.
This man is a disgrace to the American people
This man is disgusting he should resign
None of those calling for his removal raised one peep to call for it when he stated his support this week for infanticide. Evil-doer for sure.
God works in mysterious ways...
GET OVER IT. DO NOT RESIGN SIR.
Karma
Ralphy, you're 3/4 out the door!
Trump should resign for NOT renting to Blacks in the 70's then.......
Perfect pic choice for this article
He has close ties to previous Governor. All who endorsed this man should resign
Wtf will his resigning do? Just another ploy by the dixiecrats to make black folk believe that the Dems are any less racist than the GOP.
Something that is conveniently draged out of someone's closet after more than 35 years is clearly an agenda. He can't even be repentant of his mistakes? All those who call for resignation need to take a look into their own closets. Think of the past and see his actions now.
BASTARD ! I wonder why he wasn't found out earlier.
Governor's resignation can't solve the problem of racism, reality can't denied that! Issues of racism has been hijacked by politicians & ones to make it as a means of tussling power. I suggest to find another means finding lasting solutions for the resist.
Oh, FFS. I’m calling for him to come out and say, “yep, that was stupid, and I was a jerk. I am profoundly sorry and embarrassed. I sincerely believe Ive changed since then, and I hope you’ll let me prove it to you.” How hard is this?
This was in 1984, 19 freaking 84!! Not 1954, or 1934, or 1884! And he was not 14, or 16. He was 25. A grown man. And he did not reveal that himself. The only right course is resignation.
Sorry dude, this kind of display insults the dignity of humanity, And demands actions as well as an apology remember an amends has 3 parts.
People can change.
Interesting defense: I apologize for doing that...wait...it’s blackface or a kkk hood...no one can actually see if it’s me... NEVERMIND...pretty sure that wasn’t me. Prove it was.
Although both horrific, the worst of Northam’s positions is the death of innocence; infanticide! And it appears to be the life long ideology of many politicians! DineshDSouza is correct! Truth is truth concerning the party who doesn’t need God!
Wait, so you can't be a different person today than you were in highschool? God, I hope that's not true! Is there anyone who didn't do something dumb in highschool?
So we’re going to talk about a picture where he had black paint on his face and ignore that he’s suggesting legislation that would allow infanticide! Glad you have your priorities straight.
Old sleeping Joe got some cleaning up to do too...a lot of skeletons out there...…………...
As a Democrat, I don't approve of this behavior and the man needs to resign. Whether it happened today or many years ago, there is no place for racism. If we expect Trump n others to resign for their racism acts, then the same standard should apply to Northam. There's no excuse
People can change with education and exposure to different cultures. Yes the picture is stupid and offensive in today’s society but the 80’s were different.
In light of the racism exhibited by Va. Gov. Northam I thought it was a good time to remind folks that a member of the Rye NY Police Dept used to call one of two custodians a shine. Guess which custodian.
Shame
Planned Parenthood was created with the the KKK to reduce black births! This is the Democrat party!
Media supports democrats
NachoRgz Eso es tener vergüenza
Just imagine if this racist baby killer was a republican! The media would burn his house down! The media bias is nauseating!
A long time ago.
GovernorVA Ralph 'Coonsman' Northam kept comfortable while discussion ensues.
YOU DIDNT MENTION NORTHAM IS A DRMOCRAT ! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT! NORTHAM IS A DEMOCRAT!
Killing babies is fine in today’s America, but racism is where we draw the line. Why can’t both things be bad?
Happy Black History month from Ralph Northam. We though he was a weak chined lightweight, turns out he’s a psychopath. First infanticide, then a racist. It’s not a throwback to the 50’s, he’s a throwback to the early 20th century and the eugenics movement.
What is it going to be like 30 years from now
Deny, deny deny...a textbook move by RalphNortham. Prove it was me...you can’t!
This is going to the point , that you got to examine when your born ! Means nothing, when you are young and stupid, we all make mistakes
I farted in church when I was 12. It was really loud. I'm no longer Catholic.
Infanticide good. Blackface picture bad. Society is doomed.
this is nothing compared to abortions in Virginia
Obviously it's very concerning, and I think the argument that knowing that many wouldn't have voted for him is valid. It was 30 years ago but it's also telling of problems and further it was done in a way that was meant to be seen, how long has he been in politics? Worrisome
If President Trump had done the same thing in the 80s I'm sure it would actually help his poll numbers with his base. Be that as it may people can change and I won't judge a man by his actions as a boy.
Everybody makes mistakes every now & then. Mr. & Mrs. Trump made a mistake over 70 years ago & now he's in the Oval Office.
No apologies are necessary. Just do the right thing and resign!
This happened in the 80s. It was kid shit. Plus things were a little different back then.
HOW has this not shown up before now
Can we stop digging up people’s high school yearbooks and persecuting them for stupid stuff they did 30 years ago? I’m a conservative and don’t care for Northam, but this is ridiculous.
How can anyone with a photo like that in their past go into politics where everything comes out sooner or later ?
Make this quick and resign how can we ask 45 to if you don't
Resign now.
1984? Gotta be kiddin. If that be the case let us go back to 1492
People's views can change, but most of the time, they don't. Funny how up in arms Republican's are, but defending Kavenaugh and his yearbook. Heck, he didn't know what the words meant he used? I call Liar
I'm trying to distinguish the difference between her active racism against Jews today and his racial antics from 1984? I would have to contend that her racism today is a much greater concern. Neither is right nor do they express the current racial stand of this nation.
So this abortion Governor wore blackface. Here is something more racist. Planned Parenthood commits genocide daily. The black population would be 37% if not for Planned Parenthood.
It was his comments on abortion that triggered this... no way that photo wasn’t a known commodity
Virginia is batting a 1000! We got one Democrat dressed up as a klansman and the other who is for aborting baby’s after there born. Jerry Springer couldn’t make this shit up LOL!
Wow! So many people here defending Northam because of his age at that time. I sure would like to know if these same people supported Kavanaugh when FALSE UNPROOVEN ALLEGATIONS were made against him for things he ALLEGEDLY did when he was about the same age
Good gracious... 35 years ago This is ludicrous. Judge him on his ability to be a governor not a decision like this from 35 years ago.
You left out the part of the story where the day before this story broke, Gov. Northam was on record describing his support of infanticide, aka murder, but then was sold out when PP realized he was exposing their profit scheme. Come on abc, do your job.
He was elected in spite of recent racist behavior, which was ignored untill he decided to embrace killing babies, and a 30 yr old photo was dug up. Lets just skip campaigning altogether and just review 30 yr old behavior.
If he has to resign then trump must resign.
History will always come back to haunt one day. I’m surprised it took so long for this info to come out. Anyone know who brought it forward? Just curious.
So has Whoopi Goldberg chastised her former boyfriend Ted Danson for his black face. I bet not
A Dem in VI is a racist in Mass let’s be real!
So are we not a nation of second chances? So he was a stupid kid. But does it define the man? of course not. imo, its time for him to go out into the streets and start kissing african american babies
I agree he should resign. He was 25 not 15 when the picture was taken. Now can someone please explain to me how Sen Byrd survived and became a “great mentor” to Hillary when he was an actual member of the KKK? Crazy double standard in the media and political leaders.
1984, what was the culture, media, influences in America at that time. Maybe all seeing this can talk about television/movies making these same sorts of bad decisions about race. How were black people portrayed? What was said about them? Were they valued and respected?
NEW: Former VP Joe Biden calls for Gov. Northam's resignation: 'There is no place for racism in America. Governor Northam has lost all moral authority and should resign immediately, Justin Fairfax is the leader Virginia needs now.'
When will Steve King resign? What about Cindy from Mississippi? Did anyone from GOP resign?
In a few short weeks RalphNortham will resign. I can't see him surviving politically.
He also Boofed with squee
SykesCharlie good grief it was 1984. Monumental literary significance. The fact that is was 1984 makes it far worse. From the pics it look like 1954. Just as bad.
This is some real bs. Acts from 1984? Really? The governor should resist these PC people actions like KevinHart4real did. People change.
He absolutely must resign.
Enough of this ruining people who did things way in their past everyone has skeletons in the closet even those who run the moral police
Please resign. You’re a racist or you have no moral compass. Again, you should resign. You had so many moments to make the right decision. Instead you put that disgusting costume on; you had the audacityto have it captured on film. No shame? Incredible. You’re a monster. racist
I can tell you exactly what is going to happen. Gov. Northam is going to be kept warm and comfortable. Later the Democratic Party and their attack dog media will have a conversation to decide that’s best. They will keep him. The Gov. isn’t baby that nobody wants.
He should just say he is actually Republican and start supporting Republican ideas. Republicans would get their bills passed. Democrats would be able to continue the narrative Republicans are racist. Win, Win.
Does he have a choice? This is going to hang over his political career like butter on bread. The hotter it gets, the easier it spreads.
benshapiro
Why can’t we just assign someone to gov like in Venezuela
ANYONE who is this way does not belong in office.. Get it.. ANYONE..
The democrats eat their own.... and they are hungry
What did the photo show the TheDemocrats governor doing?
~Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam~ this social media/twitter finds so many ‘I didn’t know how anybody found my messy’...
I’m shocked that a medical school allowed it to be in their yearbook...
He was mr. shoe polish face aka coon & friends
You gotta go boo... 👋🏾
Who the fuck printed that picture in a yearbook?
Yes the yearbook photo will get him fired, but advocating for the killing of babies is perfectly fine I guess.
I want the pimply face teen who was the editor also brought up on charges and reprimanded as well!!
Despite the late Friday news dump on the Super Bowl weekend..he must go
Why are people surprised. The democrats are the party of slavery and the kkk. Oh and putting us citizens in interment camps
People should admire what his become and not what he did as a teenager.
HAHAHA I love when Democrats eat their own
Very Kavanaugh indeed.
