Okay, maybe Imus shouldn't have called some innocent collegiate women athletes "nappy headed ho's". I don't find it to be the most offensive racist message I've ever heard lately though, I mean it's not like he used an actual slur, or vulgarity, or called for thier exclusion due to thier 'race'. After all, racism is really all about bigotry in motion. Maybe he made an inappropriate physical critique with some biggoted/sexist overtones, but the reaction to it seems to be the real surprise story for me.

And it's a shame too, because there is plenty of real racism in this country allready. Sure, theres plenty of people like myself that consider all humans equal, until they prove otherwise. But a lot of people I know are mildly to extremely prejudiced. Black, White, Asian, Mexican, Central and South American, all with degrees and divisions amongst themselves, all seemingly getting more divisive and more aggressive against each other as time goes on. Concentrating on petty issues like the Imus event distracts from real issues that should be addressed. The real issue to me being that we are currently engaged in full-blown, economically waged and nuclear class warfare on a global scale. The mega-rich and connected are fucking us all, distracting us with emotionally charged bullshit that stimulates or fear laden minds into looking the other way while they stick it deeper in our collective asses.

I'm still not sure this event would garner the media firestorm it has without a lot of people in this country not wanting to talk about the important things anymore. Why the fuck is this national news? Why has the 'Current Affair/Fox' model that was laughed at in the early 90's become the standard format for deciding a full 50% of what is 'National News'? People might call it paranoid, but does it really make sense that what was called sensationalist, intelectual trash 10-20 years ago passes as responsible journalism today? Do you really think that could happen on accident? That the laws governing corporate media-monopolies could be changed just in time for this 'dark age' to begin? Isn't it obvious to everyone that it's really the other way around? And will anyone under 30 even relate to what the fuck I'm saying anyway? They never saw the strong and responsible people that were back then, and I feel sorry for them for that. But the young people of today should be made aware that they are being ripped off in ways thier grandparents and great-grandparents would have shot at people over.

The lesson for today is that no matter what you do, now you must apologize to Al Sharpton, for some unknown fucking reason.

Oh, and all I really have to say about Al Sharpton is two words:Tawana Brawley

from the wiki:
The case still hangs over Sharpton, particularly following his entry into mainstream politics (his race for the 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination involved his addressing the convention from its podium), not merely because he defended Brawley's story well after its veracity came into question but for the unfounded accusations he leveled, and, according to some of his critics, his "playing the race card".

And people still listen to him again why?

Thanks for listening MF, soap box rant finished. Now go get drunk and shop with your own kind, and pay your fucking taxes. Peasants.

I miss the days of Jesse Jackson calling Chicago "Himey Town."

In related comedy, Jesse Jackson has offered to help pay all future tuition costs for the "rape victim" who falsely accused three Duke students, regardless of the outcome of her case -- his rationale being that she should never have to stoop so low for money again. No mention was made of what Jackson would do for the three students that, in her sad and desperate plight, she nearly caused to face serious jail time.

Moral of the story is, calling innocent college girls "nappy-headed hos": the end of your career. Calling innocent college boys rapists: free scholarship!

Thank you, no shit.. These 2 guys are the most racist bastards on the planet, yet they are somehow dubbed champions of the racial equality movement. I will never get that shit.



bwahahahahahahaha

I smell a sequel to Soul Man. This time he takes tanning pills and accuses whitey of heinous crimes to get harvard tuition paid!!!!!!

I think C. Thomas Howell is available to reprise his role

Well put.

I do wonder how long it's been since Jesse or Albert has contacted the "victim," though, I think it'd be interesting to know. However, when compared to the New Black Panther Party, who claimed the other night that it was political pressure from whitey that forced the NC AG to drop the case (and that they "weren't sure that nothing happened" to that lying cunt), I guess the two men of God are rather tame.

"Kiss it. Apoligize."

The great thing about Al and Jesse are that the more they try to push themselves to the front of every racially motivated event, the more black people are realizing that they are more a part of the problem than the solution. At least based on the black people I have spent time with in the last few years. If you polled the black population, I'd say the majority wouldn't want Al and Jesse deciding for them what is right and wrong.

And the Imus situation was SO much more about sexism than racism. Even the fucking coach of the basketball team got that. Al and Jesse just need to be in the spotlight. Do you really think Al and Jesse want an end to racism in the country? What happens to them at that point? They become obsolete.

In the end they just vomit and shit all over what MLK and Medgar Evars fought and died for.
