And So, It Begins : The Obamanation!

I agree with that, if you don't like it, we all can contribute to a "trip" over there but on one stipulation that you can't ever come back....even to visit your relatives. Once gone, gone for good.

Another thing to implement, start working and stop bitching unless you are handicapped or mentally unable otherwise work or get deported out no matter what color, race, ethnic group, etc.... Work or get out.

Enough of the freeloading.

IMO, it's crap like this that keeps racism alive.:mad:
 
That's exactly right Chris!

So does:

The Black Congressional Caucus.
Miss Black America contest
The Black Firefighters Association
The Black Business Directory (to encourage blacks to deal with blacks)
The National Black Police Officers Association

And on and on.

Replace the word Black with White above and see if any of those would be considered racist organizations.

Black History Month
Black Entertainment Television
United Negro College Fund
Black Fraternities and Sororities

Truth is, I don't really have a problem with any of the organizations listed above. What I do have a problem with is the fact that you can have black organizations and they're not considered discriminatory/racist, but if it were an organization were for whites only it would be. So long as this practice is allowed to continue, we will have problems with discrimination/racism.

I would like to see an end to racism, however I believe you will always have individuals on either side that will prevent it from happening.

What would happen if they all went back to the Mother Land, we would have no need for any of the following:

Welfare
Foodstamps
Public Assistance
Housing Projects
Newports
Spinners
Churches's Chicken
Stupid ass Names (Shakwanda) from Atlanta?
Prisons
Just these few things alone would fix the deficit!!

As an added bonus, all the overpriced far east and mideast owned convenience stores/liquor stores in "the hood" will close and maybe they'll go back to where they came from too.

Of course the mass exodus might put the boxer shorts industry in a bind.

Also all the phat jean maufacturers will go under.

Some tennis shoe manufacturers will fold,

Basketball will suffer the same fate baseball is now suffering

The gold chain undustry which was already in bad shape due will finally close up shop.

Hip hop will finally have to be performed by the same white people that have always produced it.

How can we cope with such devastation to our lifestyle?

Please stay, please, stay!

My daughter's blonde! Who will she sneak around with in her teen years if you all go back across the pond???

There go my hopes of an illegitimate grandchild named Chenequa.:cool:

I don't agree with the proposed legislation. It is the exact same proposal that was presented in 1999 for those of you that remember. That being said, I had know idea that the industry had so many bigoted racists. Makes me a little ashamed. Hope no one searches for your business name and stumbles upon this.

William, this is just stereotype joking. I can only speak for myself.

We adopted my sister from an Indian reservation when I was a child in Mississippi. The police found her at age two crawling on frozen swamp. We had to leave after 3 months because of the the vandalism to our home and people spitting on us in the street. That's racism. The church we went to made us leave and because my dad brought in a black couple to be baptized they emptied and sterilized the entire baptistry and there was talk of completely demolishing it and building a new on. That's racism.


We're joking about stereotypes and the only reason I can think of that you can be so thin-skinned about it would be if you've never encountered real racism. Those of us who have, can and will and do joke about stereotypes.

I hope my customers find this thread. They know me better than you do.
 
Tony, I grew up in North Carolina and worked in a very PC Fire Department. I know what racism is. I have read your previous posts and think that you are a stand up guy. However, you are right, I don't truly know anyone here, so opinions are based off of comments that are posted. I think that if you read them in an unbiased manner you would see that they are more than jokes. I have seen people fired at the department for saying comments like the ones above, and they were joking also. I guess I am just saying "tread lightly".
 
I for one do not think because I feel reparations or exclusively black organizations are wrong makes me a racist. I stand by my statement. The same as I would if they were all white clubs.

I also don’t think references to spinners, gold chains and some of the other stereotype stuff is any more wrong than Chris Rock talking about rednecks with rebel flags, pick up trucks with gun racks or camo bib overalls etc. It’s part of our culture. I work with some black guys that I consider friends that cringe when they see the black types referenced to. <o></o>

I for one will never tread lightly and be afraid to speak my opinion. I’m glad I’ve never been in a position that I felt I had to bite my tongue to be politically correct. Also by my posting here doesn’t mean I necessarily agree with what everyone else says. I would not mind any of my customers black or white seeing this or any other of my posts.

Thanks, I hope anybody who's known me for a while knows I'm not racist. I don't agree with reparatations either. I think that's what's wrong with this country now.

Everybody wants reparations for something. And the reason your guys at the station couldn't say anything they are given the right by the constitution to say is because the city was afraid it would have to give up "reparations" to anyone who might be offended by it.

Notice how fast "climate change" is fading away with economic hardships. There was a time when "All in the Family" was funny. It dealt with stereotypes on both side and it was funny. Then all the sudden it was racist. What was the difference? Too much time on our hands. The economy became so good we started looking around for things to sue for out of boredom.

On the other hand I'll back up any man's right to be as racist as he wants. Just as long as it doesn't do others any physical harm.

We could have stayed in Philadelphia, Miss. if we didn't think we were going to be murdered. I think the spitting was over the line. But people talking about us would just have to be tough crap for us. That's just talk and I'll back up any man's right to talk about as much racism as he wants.

He has the right to try to convince as many others to be racist as he wants. That's the country we live in.

Silence that, then what's next? Bad Preachin'? Political views that don't fit the mold? The last time this country tried that we had a revolutionary war and the government we have now was created.

BTW, don't know if you're married or not, but the way my sister and my wife talk about firemen being what God meant when he said he created man "in his own image", I thought I'd let you know that my sister turned out to be a stone fox and is now living in Sanford, NC and was widowed a few years ago. :rolleyes: I will warn you though, she's 40 and she likes them between 22 and 30. :D I have no idea why.:eek:

I'm not an Obama fan by any means. But I'd say a little research is in order before assumption.

Feb 2007 is when it was started, and not passed. Bills like that are brought up repeatedly.

Btw, for my opinion.... you find me someone who was actually a slave and I'll say give them reparations. If they're just RELATED to someone who was a slave.... well, get a life, and go earn your own money.

The only difference this time is it is more likely to go through with the congress we have now. Just like the fairness doctrine.

Ehh. With the economy the way it is, I wouldn't see any huge expenditures like that passing. The Dems in congress are even having a hard time with spending for Obama's "New Deal" type plan... as they should. The Fairness doctrine related more about the freedom of journalistic matters.... it wasn't really costing the government money, whereas reparations definitely would. Either way... I don't think it'd pass, especially in an economic time such as this. There's enough reparations heading that way in forms of welfare and food stamps as it is.
