On this day in 1955, Rosa Parks refused to go to the back of the bus:

And just like in past years, we were watching the Twitter feed waiting for Obama to post his “traditional selfie” to honor Rosa Parks when we happened upon this hot piece of garbage from Matt Fernandez:
Today in 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give her seat to a white man on a bus. Times sure have changed. Today she'd be shot.

Really dude? C’mon.
Not entirely sure if he was going for shocking, or funny, or edgy but really it just comes across as trolling. The odds of Rosa getting shot were far higher in 1955 and racism was very real when she took a stand. Not like today where racism has become more of a narrative that Liberals use to make themselves feel better because they “fight” against it.
Likely he was just looking for attention …

Yeah, he’s just not funny.
