I always thought it was funny they gave him his own show to appeal to the urban demographic yet he's voiced by a nerdy white guy.

Tim Scott blasts Pelosi over 'outrageous, sinful' claim GOP wants to 'get away with murder' of George Floyd

Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., tore into House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., Friday, telling Fox News Radio's "The Guy Benson Show" that her remark accusing the GOP of "trying to get away with ... the murder of George Floyd" was "the most outrageous, sinful comment I've heard as a public official."

On Tuesday, Pelosi criticized Scott's police reform bill, the JUSTICE Act, in an interview with CBS Radio, calling it "unsalvageable" and saying it won't make "any difference."

"For something to happen, they're going to have to face the realities of police brutalities, the realities of the need for justice in policing, and the recognition that there's many good people in law enforcement, but not all," Pelosi said of Republicans. "And that we have to address those concerns. So, when they admit that, and have some suggestions that are worthy of consideration -- but so far they were trying to get away with murder, actually -- the murder of George Floyd."

In response, Scott told host Guy Benson: "I thought to myself, 'How in the world does this woman, standing in front of a $24,000 refrigerator, have the sense to jump into the bottomless pit of race politics? Why in the world would she want to do that?'

"There's only one answer, by the way, one answer," Scott continued. "It's because she's lived so long in a state of privilege that she has forgotten that it's the Republican Party that voted more for the Civil Rights-era legislation than the Democrats.

She and anyone that thinks that her statement  is accurate is stupid

does this mean you can’t get a voice over job based on the color of your skin?

Also what is Family Guy going to do about voicing Brian?

Edited June 27, 2020 by Jason

The problem with this is people take voice acting roles without even knowing what the character looks like. They also take roles because they're struggling to find them elsewhere.

It's dumb. No one really cares.

I guess Kratos from the God of War series can't be voiced by a black guy? Or is that perfectly fine?

You can tell the police in Portland are really getting fed up.  It’s been a disaster there for weeks now and shows no signs of getting better

The military was way out front of this. 30 years ago they changed all the books so instead of master and slave it always read primary and secondary. Also no union had male and female ends. They were pin and socket

Someone was thinking ahead of potential liability.

And then she said she got to be master and you have to be slave.

That was one of the words I used to spell incorrectly when I was young.

“Peaple” was another one. I guess I used to confuse humans with green legumes.
