Dear Governor! They are screwing you! Shame on all of them!! Everybody did stupid thing 30+ year ago! But some of them got away with it! Poor you!!

But he also apologised

Yet it appears on his personal page in the medical school yearbook? Come on

Virginia isn't exactly the cradle of humanity and liberal 'live and let live'. 🙂 They always deny everything at first.

Virginia governor refuses to resign over racist yearbook photoRalph Northam reportedly questioning whether he appears in image, despite earlier admission We’ll see how long he lasts when people show up to support him dressed as such the general consensus seems to be that it will take about three days. If I were a bookie that looks like populate bet from what I've seen. People do change. Judge the individual on his entire life and the record will indicate whether or not he has changed. IF People were judged on one incident alone nobody would be safe.

Virginia's governor under pressure to resign over KKK and blackface yearbook photosVirginia's governor is facing mounting calls for him to resign after pictures emerged of him dressed up in either a Ku Klux Klan hood or with blackface. So there's this, and the fact that he supports infanticide. Guess which one people are talking about and asking him to resign over? I can't comprehend his bizarre taste of humour, but if he's being removed from his position, those who oppose him should state what his act was when citing it. how long will it be until politicians are pressured to resign over stuff they did as 10 year olds.
