For the most part, this list has offered ways to befriend white people one at a time. However, if you want to befriend a large number of white people at the same time, the easiest way to do it is to go to jail for political reasons.
White people love political prisoners because they are individuals who have been locked up because their beliefs or their presence stands in defiance of an unjust system. In fact, most white people would love to be locked up for their beliefs provided that they could go to a jail with private toilets, plenty of books and no rape.
Instead, white people are forced to turn those dreams of oppression into something more productive. Specifically the belief that one day their law degree, graphic design skill, or ability to attend a concert can be used to free a political prisoner.
If you happen to be this individual, then you have no further work to do. White people already like you and will provide for you financially in the form of book deals, commencement addresses, and documentaries. But do not assume that these are the only people who can benefit from their time in jail.
Political prisoners make excellent choices whenever a white person asks you to name a personal hero. If they drop an answer like “Kurt Cobain” or “Toni Morrison” you can easily trump them by offering up a name like Mumia Abu Jamal or Nelson Mandela which will show white people that you are smart, well informed, and political. Or that you own at least one Rage Against the Machine CD.
But what if you pick the wrong political prisoner? Impossible. This is because political prisoners do not exist until a famous white person has drawn attention to them. Until that point, any person who has been locked up for their beliefs is just a regular prisoner and subsequently not worthy of graffiti stencils.
Conversely, if you ever find yourself needing to end a friendship with a white person you can simply say something like “well, he’s a criminal he belongs in jail. I don’t care what the Beastie Boys have to say about it.”
End of friendship.

yo, strait hilarious, nice work.
Misguided attempt to save the world.
There is nothing more beautiful than a white person sitting in a fair trade coffee shop reading Nelson Mandela’s biography with the cover directly facing the rest of the occupants of the coffee shop, adjusting the book on their lap every so often to make sure everyone can get a good look.
Free Aung San Suu Kyi!!
I must agree.
Free Khalid Sheikh Mohammed!
Oh, wait…no, I’m doing this wrong. I’m pretty sure he actually did something bad. Lots of bad things, to be precise.
But my heart was in the right place, so it’s not awful for a first try.
there’s a corollary to this rule. the white person’s interest in political prisoners and the injustices of this world is inversely proportional to their (and their family’s) wealth. the poorer white people out there could care less about Mumia, it’s the wealthy who make political criminals causes celebre
I’ve actually seen examples of white guys making the cover of their book clearly visable: the Koran, the Red Book, etc. I’m sure I’ll spot a guy showing his copy of “Stuff White People Like” any day now. 🙂
Because you know how fabulously wealthy all those hippies are…Anyway, I think you mean directly proportional, not inversely, and the rich couldn’t give a good god damn about Nelson Mandela. Black people in South Africa have been extremely poor, so, naturally, the rich there would want to keep Mandela in prison. Its mostly the middle class that goes nuts over this stuff.
Haha. Good post this one. Keepin it real, Lander.
Except if same said person is wearing hemp sandals. And perhaps are holding one of those new aluminum water bottles (certainly NOT plastic). ‘Tis a thing of intense beauty.
In which case I like to stand near them while reading the do-gooder poster on the wall while proclaiming “Let’s see…which group if little brown people is my hot beverage saving this week? Ah, the Hondurans.”
Then I turn and ask them if they’ve read the biography of Zac Efron. “Now there’s a man who has suffered”.
Funny you should mention Mandela, because it’s often forgotten that he was originally jailed for actual crimes against the law, not for political reasons. The guy was no saint, despite what you read on Wikipedia etc. However, when it comes to the number of years he was locked up – that was political for sure, and worth protesting.
The google ads under this post are a bigger crackup than the post itself….
Whatever.
I fully agree, Anna, but I think the post is week and not very white.
Oh yeah, I pooped my pants. It feels so good to beat the real pooper.
Actually, it is indeed possible to pick the wrong political prisoner. If you name someone imprisoned in Cuba . . . uh-oh!!
White people love to think they are helping the underdog. And white people need to think they are the savior of someone (or something.) White people also love to think they are righting past wrongs. So, this is a perfect solution… to find a political prisoner to save… preferably one Black and/or groveling … and be the one to provide him or her a stay of execution.
Oh my word, are you ever right about that.
Another thing white people LOVE: jokes about prison rape.
White people would never want to free Michael Vick. He’s a dog abuser, and white people love dogs!
White people love to use Gallicisms wherever they can.
Okay, this one’s a little over the top.

Aww, I miss him. I haven’t seen him around since around post 80. Good ole’ Damn.
I don’t think the class matters, it’s their placement on the political compass. For example, the WKOWP don’t care about prisoners, but us leftist white people don’t care about the WKOWP.
Quick question:
Is this analysis strictly black/white in the US?
If it is, fine. I am a white kid who grew up in a black town in the US (and think a lot of the posts are accurate) who now is borderline brown in a Latin-Anglo community. Tough sell and happy to have a bit of perspective.
All in all, well done.
Restless Native
White boys do fine in jail. Can’t speak for prison, but if you’re big enough and haven’t a care for banquet organization, you do fine in most southern jails. Houston, New Orleans and Nashville to my credit. Need to see Atlanta to sweep these aspursions aside.

Damn. That totally lost me!
Whiterpeople don’t like political prisoners – they only like the ones that oppose the United States!
After all, if one of my relatives was to get disappeared in the middle of the night, sent to a laogai camp, and then stripped for organs while still alive, no whiterpeople would protest. They’d just put on their trendy Mao shirts and head off to their non-profits.
Unless, of course, they get sick. I’m sure the whiterpeople will gladly take advantage of the Communist (even better than socialist to them!) medicine in China – and buy themselves a liver or a cornea off a Chinese political prisoner.
I love this blog. Definitely look up to it as a source of inspiration for mine.

Hey, maybe the pooper had something real wrong and is no longer with us. I raise my glass to the pooper and say, “Here’s to the one who got our attention and a chuckle from some of us.” There are many who don’t manage even that.
Free Patty Hearst
Free The Dave Clark Five
Since you brought up Nelson Mandela I will say this:
His imprisonment proves that the prison system works.
Since he was released he has never re-offended.
Free the Chicago 7
Free Vick. He killed a dog, a pit bull at that. Hell, Sarha Palin killed a moose, and half of the country was willing to make her the Vice President of the United States. I know one thing, if Vick were white; he would not be in prison. End of story.
People dreaming of oppression? Now thats wicked. But yeah, its mostly white people that launch “free “.
People on the ground are normally scared to death of their local authorities to revolt or protest I guess.
This post is so on point it makes me wanna holler…throw up both my hands. Especially in the town where I live.
Right on!!!! Hilarious and so very true!!!!
Free Leonard!
as far as frequency and recognizability: his (postered) image is neck-in-neck with Ché’s (printed) in most of the neighborhoods I’ve lived in the past 10 years.
#118: wasting time reading dumb blogs!
😉
Free Plaxico Burress. Yeah he fucked up. But they shouldn’t have “slammed dunked” him. The idiot shot himself and the coverup once again was worse than what actually happened. Did the mayor really have to make a comment on this? When the G-Men get bounced in the first round in the playoffs, let’s see what the “monday morning quarterbacks” say. Yes, he should be punished. I just don’t know what.
I also think it’s fair to first check what that prisoner went to jail for before automatically assuming he’s in there unjust. But white people seem to like taking a side without putting in the effort to look at the facts first. Or, they read up like one, two sentences on it via the Internet and take that as “fact”.
Germans are really good at that, too:

Mumia murdered Daniel Faulkner. I don’t know a single white person who would name him as a personal hero.
Many moons ago I remember someone (a student at Harvard) telling me his roommate was Wang Dan. I thought it was the coolest thing, but now that I look back on it, he was just probably trying to get l@id. ahhh, stupid lies people tell…. thank god I am older and less stupid now.
I think it has everything to do with class and Mr. David up there is right: middle class are the ones who go nuts for this stuff.
I’m black but pretty much everything that’s on this blog sums me up. Lol.
I guess it is a class thing and not a race thing.
Being “Middle Class” is like driving at the “proper speed.” Everyone thinks anyone with more money than them is rich and less is poor.
A better description of this class is the “professional /overeducated” class.
“analysis?”
Seriously?
Methinks tongue-in-cheek has become less obvious for some people.
Sarcasm. Irony. Parody. Silliness. A lark. A joke. A humorous poke.
Funny.
So, no, I don’t think there’s any “analysis” taking place here.
I read books in coffee shops and do this very thing, ensuring that my fellow patrons have a good look-see. However, at the moment, I’m reading a Jimmy Buffet novel. Does that disqualify me?
Agreed. Mumia is a murderer, not a political prisoner. Anyone who thinks differently needs to have their head examined. I’m lookin’ at you Ed Asner & Mike Farrell.
Touché.
Hey, I’m black, too……….but not so pretty.
So what?
What is wrong with liking something?
Stop stealing my jokes.
that is meant to be “weak” not “week”.
Ugly can be fixed. A word of advice, don’t show dumb; you’re stuck with that.
Hey Buck
Are you talking to me?
Not sure what you mean.
Well, clearly you don’t live in Portland, Oregon.
That’s funny, I can never get white people to join my political prisoner protests. Apparently white people like taxes and don’t like tax protesters, because neither my “Free Erwin Schiff” movement nor my “Free Wesley Snipes” movement has ever gotten any traction.
Yeah political prisoners like Germar Rudolf, Ernst Zündel, Matt Hale, Shawn Walker, Chester Doles and the Heretical Two (google their names). Naaa
Busted.
Who is the moron that wrote this? Mumia Abu Jamal did not go to jail because his beliefs or presence stood in defiance of an unjust system. He went to jail because he shot and killed a Philadelphia police officer. As a Philadelphian, I can tell you that the people that demonstrate on his behalf are idiots, as is the asshole that wrote this bullshit. Mumia Abu Jamal is not a political prisoner, he’s a cold blooded murderer. His name doesn’t belong in the same sentence with Nelson Mandela’s.
Dude, step back and see this as the satire/anthropological study that it is. There ya go.
You go, Alex. You’ll get it right eventually.
Fry Mumia.
Barnes and Noble would be the perfect prison for white people!
Yes. He’s white. And in no way oppressed.
He is responsible for the deaths of many dogs, who were hanged, drowned, shot, beaten, teeth pulled out with pliers, electrocuted, tortured. and it is not the point that he is black, the point is is that he was a millionaire and someone with that much fucking money shouldn’t be spending there free time torturing animals. The point is is that he is a worthless human being and I do not care about what type of punishment he is getting so long is he is never able to harm, torture or kill another life form on this planet again. The same is true for all dog fighters, they need to be stopped, they need to learn an alternative way to make a living and if you are not doing it in order to make eneough money to live, for instance, just because you are so damn bored and and have so much money you can’t think of any other way to spend your free time than you are truly the worse type of human being to ever walk the planet. And I also want to say that pit bulls, when raised from birth in loving and nurturing environments are the sweetest most affectionate loving dogs on the face of the planet to human beings, cats, dogs and everyone they meet. They are so filled with love they will cuddle with you all night in your bed with kittens, other dogs and babies all around and love them all with the most abundant amount of affection. Our pit bull found abandoned kittens in the backyard and immediately began cleaning them and caring for them like they were his babies and to this day, now that we’ve brought them in, he still loves them like they were his own. I’ve never seen a lab or a golden retriever act as compassionate as that yet.

Yea people need to lear to quit trying to save people who don’t really like you. I mean even the Black Panthers laughed at Bill Ayers and the rest of the Weathermen Underground behind their backs when they tried to join the cause back in the 60’s. Youtube the documentary and watch for youselves.
Oh yea, you guys inspired my buddies to do a spoof off your site. Just started check it out.
http://www.stuffcougarslike.com
what about Zundel or David Irving? I have never heard white people liking them. I think you mean white people like BLACK political prisoners.
exactly.. Its safe. radical chic politlcal prisoners that they ‘like’ going on SWL’s premise that the stances white liberals take are nothing but a pose for status, it makes perfect sense they would never speak up about real political prisoners sitting in jail in America and across Europe. Amren.com has an article about it today.
Lacking any decently repugnant white minority regimes or right wing dictatorships, many White People have started treating the foriegn residents of Guatanamo Bay and previous denizens of Abu Grahib (living forever in photos) like they are some sort of political prisoners. The fact that most of the boy raping psychopaths vacationing in Cuba would have every woman the WPs know stoned to death for merely acting like an independent, sentinent human being, and would gladly see infidel children die a random, painful death, can’t stop the do-gooders. Mistakes were made at Abu Grahib, mostly in allowing cameras around, but consider the occupation of many of the Army enlisted men most culpable in “humiliating” troublesome prisoners to keep them in line: state penitentiary guards. So it’s OK to maintain a living hell for dope dealers in a US penitentiary, but let’s not treat our lethal foriegn guests that way. Living the life of priviledged ease that the right kind of WP enjoys, they prefer to let the lower orders compell bad and insane people to do things that they really don’t want to do. The mere idea that some people have to be MADE to do stuff is a very scary one, fraught with feelings of guilt to the WP. Making a common cause with at least person in the slammer, allows the WP to sleep at night.
Wow, so many free brands. Can anyone please tell me where I can get them?
Or can I search for them on deals.com?
Also, do they have Free Whoppers too?
mumia is obviously guility and knows it, but he certainly won’t turn away the millions of white idiots who want to make his freedom into a between-lattes cause. Who could blame him? When you read the facts about his case, it quickly becomes apparent that only people who require spoon feeding could possibly believe in his innocence.
Free Whoppers!!!
Agreed.
several of my super left wing Northeast elite relatives would have their heart beat faster than a speeding bullet if a colored (black)person was walking behind them on the street at night! but then cry about racism YOU KNOW THE EVIL WHITE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN ALABAMA! sidenote… black people are afraid of black people too! please liberals stop being silly!!
Dude, I can appreciate satire as much as the next guy. I just don’t like it when humor is based on an incorrect or grossly misguided premise. Referring to Mumia as a political prisoner falls into the latter category.
Ya got me there.

To all the know-it-alls that claim Mumia is guilty……

Death to all pit bulls! They’re usually owned by white trailer trash and are useless because they cannot be trusted. In the Portland, Oregon area in the past three weeks there have been five pit bull attacks. Warm and loving my ass, they are killers. Watch your pit bull real close, I guarantee you’ll see him eat those kittens. DEATH TO THE MONGREL BREED.
Oh, I’m sorry, I got carried away. Any time you need someone to look after your loving little dog I would be glad to watch him. I promise I will take good care of it.
Don’t feel bad, half the time I don’t know what I’m saying.
What I was trying to say is that about anything wrong with a human being can be fixed except for dumb. You’re kind of stuck with that for life. Don’t take that as me calling you dumb.
Wow, Buck. Your posts here show how easy it is to insult a person for no apparent reason.
Must be sad to spend your time crafting unintelligible & rude remarks on blogs.
Most of the prisoners at Guantanamo haven’t been charged with any crime. We took away their right to habeus corpus and stuck them in Cuba so the Bush Administration could pretend it was all legit because it wasn’t on American soil. Absurdity. When they are charged with an actual crime and found guilty of said crime, then we can treat them like prisoners. (Which by the way, does not include torturing them.) Astounding that I should have to spell it out for you, Ignoramous.
WOW…..The majority of the things mentioned on this ridiculous website are those enjoyed only by liberal east coast democrats….no one in the rest of the country gives a crap about political prisoners, hummus, farmers markets, or Barrack Obama.
I’m white and have been in jail for political “crimes.” And a number of my friends are or have been political prisoners — some now are looking at 20 years. There’s always exceptions, though, I guess.
For white people out there who are scared of going to jail: It’s really not THAT bad. There’s a lot of places I’d rather be, and the whole ordeal is a pain in the ass, but if you happen to go to jail and you know you’re not gonna be in that long, it’s not all that bad. I personally didn’t get raped, that’s all that counts.
DIE PIGS DIE
I think you are getting too easily offended. You said ‘not so pretty’ and he said ‘ugly can be fixed’ but dumb can’t be. And then he even said to not take that to mean that he’s calling you dumb.
And white people (that also like hockey) most certainly do not like Avery.
I wish more people were like you…
No one in Berkeley cares about freeing Mumia? News to me.
Every young African-American man sitting in a cell for a “drug crime” is a political prisoner. The “war on drugs” has been an incredibly effective tool to imprison legions of African-Americans.
By removing jobs and quality education from the African-American community and putting drugs into the African-American community, The State has been able to take millions of prisoners when young men naturally gravitate towards selling drugs as a means of supporting themselves and their families.
Once imprisoned and convicted, young African-Americans are institutionalized to be lifelong guests of The State and lifelong objects trapped in The Correctional System.
It’s all true, and I can prove it, BECAUSE I SAW A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE!!!

Your insight into white people is amazing. I stand in awe. It’s like there’s no difference between them. I guess its the same for black people, how they all like looking like gangsters or how asians are all secretly Kung Fu masters.
i think too many folks get their panties in a wad over this site. I think it’s hilarious. Personally i think it’s geared more towards making fun of upper or upper middle class whites, and i’d even say those on the east or west coast – being from the south most of these don’t apply to your everyday white southerner, but they’re funny none the less.
YES! YOU ARE RIGHT. NO ONE IN THE REST OF THE COUNTRY CARES ABOUT BARACK OBAMA.
HOW THE HECK DID HE GET SO MANY ELECTORAL VOTES? MUST HAVE CHEATED!!! BETTER BUY SOME GUNS BEFORE HE TAKES THEM ALL AWAY!!!
Whew, typing in all caps is tiring.
Would OJ Simpson count?
How about Michael Jackson?
It’s not Vick’s fault! He didn’t know any better. I’m sure he will learn to love dogs once we educate him.
Dear duh,
I knew that this posting would smoke out EXACTLY the type of person I am talking about. Someone who thinks that everyone can play nice, and that mediators and lawyers can solve any problem, mainly because they have only had those kinds of problems. You also ruined a pretty effective and coherent argument about Guantanamo with purile name calling. Pretty typical for the type of WP that you represent. In any case, it is a real complicated world that we live in. Lincoln suspended habeus corpus, and locked up American citizens, in America. But I guess that was OK because they were the WRONG kind of white people. I know it is old, boring history, but you may have forgotten what caused us to round up these bastards in the first place. They weren’t picked up loitering in front of 7-11. Courts and trials don’t work too good when you can’t establish people’s identities, and most witnesses are dead or hiding in a friggin’ inpenetrable mountain range. Abdallah Salih al-Ajmi was released from Gitmo and proceeded to kill himself and several innocent people with a suicide bomb last March. I think that if the whole facility was emptied, and the boat carrying the former prisoners away happened to sink with no survivors save the crew, I don’t think that too many Americans would be upset about it.
Uggh, I played in an orchestra with Matt Hale. He is freaking creepy. I always wondered if he secretly wanted to kill the conductor.
You’re right, so big deel.
yeah
Rite on. I spend a lot of time just trying to get the more idiot types all riled up. If they reply in a big huff I try my damnedest to push them as far as they will go. As far as my real beliefs, they rarely show on this site. Like old Pablo who posted above. I wasn’t even poking at him and he got all riled. Poor Pablo has many demons tormenting him.
Okay I did it. Come on, Pablo, do your thing.
That’s silly. Poor white people don’t exist.

You see?
Don’t nobody care about no sweet and sour prisoner, even if she’s the real deal.
That’s the sweet and sour reality for you Clive.
This site is about white people. If one does not like the things mentioned here, then very likely s/he is white trash, and not white.
I have come to realize that this site is a white supremacist plot to neutralize black criticism of white people, with the goal of making white folks look warm and fuzzy so that they can maintain their political / economic dominance.
So why do I enjoy it so much?
Oh yeah, one more thing… the author(s) of this site quite obviously spend a lot of time listening to Black people. Please stop. It makes us uncomfortable.
Mumia Abu Jamal is not a political prisoner and his name should not even be mentioned in the same sentence as Nelson Mandela. Nelson Mandela was a hero who stood up for what he believed and eventually won out, Mumia Abu Jamal is a MURDERER and should be left in jail for the rest of his life.
Duh.
Whether you think he is guilty or not, he is not a political prisoner, he was convicted of murder!
Habeus corpus is for american citizens, not people that strap bombs to thier kids, fly planes into buildings, and/or stone rape victims.
This one is big in Atlanta, FREE TROY DAVIS!
he probably didn’t kill that police officer though
actually, sir, I think you mean to say, “You are not funny, but you are an ass”.
you are right and i hope you aren’t being ironic. This drug-imprisonment problem needs to go. Marijuana needs to decriminalized and then legalized. the more things we legalize the less money we spend on police, prison infrastructure, and other things. I am not some hippie, i tried weed and didn’t like it, but that doesn’t mean i want to keep it illegal. there are more problems associated with alcohol than weed or some psychedelics.

Nail – Hammer – Head again. You can see these people all over intown Atlanta – East Atlanta, Little 5 Pts, Inman Park, Candler Park, Decatur, Virgina-Highland, Midtown, Downtown & Westside and now Castleberry.
Also of course any major college town in America.
White progressives have to be some of the most annoying people in America.
me too hottie. Just keep those workout pictures coming.
Any man, black or white, who has spent a second in jail on account of VAWA Joe Biden’s Violence Against Women Act is a political prisoner.
We need men to vote together to defeat the feminists. We can bribe the few percent of women we need to get over 50% with offers of free shoes and promises to call.
Black men: the Democratic party is for women and homosexuals. It is not an appropriate party for heterosexual males, not that there is anything wrong with 92% of black men being gay, by virtue of their support of the gayest imaginable party.
Right to habeus corpus? Is Gitmo full of American citizens? Did they have that right under Afghan law? Umm, nope and nope. So it is a dream that battlefield combatant from halfway around the world enjoy American constitutional rights. A constitution that they would replace with Sharia, BTW. Since they were not in uniform it would be reasonable to shoot them all as spies or guerrillas, but we bent over backwards out of basic white american goodness. Enemy combatants are not charged or tried, they are held until the conflict is over and then repatriated if they no longer constitute a threat.
But thanks for your take on the matter, its interesting to see into the mind of the truly ignorant.
I agree. They run a close second to White “conservatives” with White “libertarians” bringing up the rear.
I hardily agree. In fact, murder should be legalized. Think of the money that would be saved. If you killed my brother, then I could just kill you in response. Oh, but then your brother would kill me, and maybe rape my sister, then my cousin would put a car bomb in front of your families drycleaning business and take out a bunch of you guys. Think of the savings. Or we could just pay our taxes, lock up drug dealers and not wring our hands over penalizing criminals being a “political” act. Americans have short memories and seem to have forgotten how unlivable many cities were during the height of the crack era. After crack dealers were shipped upstate the city got much nicer. If by “political” you mean “get rid of dangerous scum”, then I guess it was a highly political act.

Ironically, the white people referred to on this website actually hate this place.
I love that.
Sorry, this white girl LOVES this blog! And so much of it is sooooo true! I love being able to laugh at myself!
Hey Whitey, would you say that again. I didn’t get it the first time. You know, expand your ideas to the point where they make sense. Of course that’s assuming at some point they will make sense. For Christ sake don’t give me some crap that I’m a dumb ass or something. I honestly want to know what you’re thinking.
Cory Doctorow (copy, plagiarise, repeat)
Sure thing:
-The Democratic party passes legislation which is very bad for men and makes many men political prisoners.
-The negro male is, effectively, a homosexual, by virtue of his unwavering loyalty to the Gay Party, which is the Dems.
-The negro better stop being so gay because it’s pissing the more heterosexual ethnicities off.
-The negro needs to join with his brothers – men of all creeds and colors – in the GOP.
-When this occurs, we can send women back to the kitchen, where, in all seriousness, the stupid whores really do belong.
-No more sexual harrassment claims, no more affirmative action for women, no more whining about sexism – that’s win-win, baby. Women can go back to being feminine instead of pantsuit wearing rugby playing wannabe men.
You can’t be serious that my “whiteness” and my “trashiness” depends on whether or not I like the things of this site.
I believe that, because of the extreme racism still evident in this country (despite Obama’s win), every person of color in the criminal injustice system is a political prisoner. As a lawyer, I do my best to keep them out of jail/prison.
Bullsh*t!
Bwahahaha
I love good satire – keep up the funny work Whitey, you’re like Bill O’Reilly, only funnier
Do you have your own blog? I just love illogical, narrow-minder opinions!
Funny site but come on ma, Mumia has no business appearing in the same sentence as Nelson Mandela. That’s like putting Ronald Reagan in the same sentence as Larry Craig.
Thanks, Whitey, now I understand, sort of. I do have a couple of questions:
1. name two pieces of legislation which are dem and bad for men
2. name two black fairly well known males who are homosexual
3. name two mainstream negro behaviors which are gay
4. there effectively are no blacks in the GOP, how do you encourage them to join when in effect they are happy were they are. In other words why would any black (or white for that matter) want to join the party of Rove/Bush?
5.”Women in the kitchen”, okay, but now how is a family going to pay the bills.
You just did.
I agree that white progressives are annoying, and I”m white. But why mention Atlanta. Check the census….Atlanta is 70% black, and sadly decaying by the minute.
What if a black person really does steal a car?
See You Next Tuesday
I don’t step and fetch, bitch, though I am flattered you are seeking my wisdom with your many questions. I will tell you about VAWA though and how it makes men, black and white, political prisoners:
“VAWA was drafted by Senator Joe Biden’s office with support from a number of advocacy organizations including Legal Momentum and The National Organization for Women, which described the bill as “the greatest breakthrough in civil rights for women in nearly two decades.”

This likely (haven’t researched it yet) harms black men more than women:
“Various persons and groups, including Marc H. Rudov, Glenn Sacks, Respecting Accuracy in Domestic Abuse Reporting (RADAR), and African-Americans for VAWA Reform (AAVR), have voiced concerns that VAWA violates due process, equal protection, and other civil rights.
The American Civil Liberties Union had originally expressed concerns about the Act, saying that the increased penalties were rash, the increased pretrial detention was “repugnant” to the US Constitution, the mandatory HIV testing of those only charged but not convicted is an infringement of a citizen’s right to privacy and the edict for automatic payment of full restitution was non-judicious (see their paper: “Analysis of Major Civil Liberties Abuses in the Crime Bill Conference Report as Passed by the House and the Senate”, dated September 29, 1994). ”
Yes … stay home until you finish it 🙂
A few years ago a black female judge gave a black criminal a small sentence of community service or something for a crime that usually would have him in jail for decades. He had been found guilty of numerous violent crimes previously as well. She said, and I’m paraphrasing but almost exactly, “I don’t want to send another black man to prison” obviously implying there are too many there right now.
Not very long after, this man and an accomplice held up a Wendy’s restaurant and murdered the entire staff. Five died and one nearly died of gun wounds to the head. This man would have been in prison but because that judge shared the sentiments you expressed, 5 blacks, whites and hispanics are now dead. How can she sleep at night with that on her conscience?
You, Debbie, have no business being a lawyer.
Deb, you’re just part of a horrible trend. Click here.
All of us crackers wanted to free Genarlow Wilson when he was all locked up in the ATL. He wasn’t a political prisoner, but he did get locked up for getting blown by a minor. And who WOULDN’T take up a cause like that?
That God for that good white woman lawyer, BJ Bernstein. I’ve actually been in her kitchen. Quite nice.
WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH MEMBER!
that’s is what you are, dammit how did they get here, first funerals, now Stuff White People Like!
i know some gay people that vote republican because of their economic beliefs, so you lose!
besides the GOP better stop being so hypocritical and start focusing on smaller government
seriously, black people do bad things and should be punished like EVERYONE ELSE. Racism is not at all like it used to be. We should not baby black people, they are Americans and need to be treated like everyone else. I don’t think you are a lawyer, you must be a troll. Read Black Rednecks, White Liberals by Thomas Sowell (who is black). it explains everything.
I love when that happens.
More fun stuff…..This is quite related to freeing Tibet. Older white liberals like to try to free their peers who maimed innocents 35 years ago when they were “taking it to the streets.” C’mon, they did their time and, besides, it was all just in the name of protest……
I hope Obama pardons Leonard Peltier!
Mumia too. And those West Memphis kids.
Debbie
I believe that, because of the extreme racism still evident in this country (despite Obama’s win), every person of color in the criminal injustice system is a political prisoner. As a lawyer, I do my best to keep them out of jail/prison.
Even the guilty ones?
Extreme racism? C’mon. Hyperbole only serves to discredit your post.
Black kids that do well in school are criticized for acting white.
Is that racist?
White kids all over the world mimic black athletes and recording artists, and no one bats an eye.
If black youth don’t dress the part of an urban hipster, they’re being white.
But white kids even in rural America are, ironically, dressing as urban hipsters.
So, as a lawyer, if you really are dealing with a lot of black clients up on criminal charges, and you’re convinced that America is a place of extreme racism, then you are definitely one of the white people this website is talking about.
Q: Who’s mumia?
A: Mumia business…
Mumia should be executed.
For the most part, the serious drug dealers are not being arrested, just their peons and their users. This does nothing to stop the continued spread of drug use in the American city. Many cities are STILL unlivable due to meth heads, heroine addicts, coke heads, and alcoholics (which is LEGAL). Why are we not locking up every drunk driver out there when many deaths are caused by drunk drivers. Alcoholism is a huge problem in North America but people love to point the finger at crackheads who spend most of their time shut in a crack house.
From reading the comments that people post, it seems that a large amount have no sense of humor. Your lack of seeing the sarcasm is hilarious in itself. This website is not to demean white people and its apparent that the author(s) are using their freedom of speech as they see fit as are all the naysayers aka whiners.
Let’s see if white people really like political prisoners, or at least former political prisoners. In my country, Brazil, which is white in its majority, even if Americans consider all latinos non-white, we had a terrible military dictatorship (sponsored by the US) which lasted 21 years, and ended in 1985. Obviously, some people resisted and fought the system, and these people were killed, or tortured and sent to jail. Thus, they were political prisoners. In 2010, we will have another presidential election and one of the candidates will probably be a woman, Dilma, a former political prisoner. Some people are saying they would never vote for a terrorist. Others find her revolutionary past something valuable. Let’s see which side wins.

White people love their animals more than people.
Funny!!!
Wow, I love this blog. Some people apparently have no understanding of a little something called, social commentary through satire.
This blog is hilarious, smart, irreverent, and a poignant commentary on elitist white privileged culture …. of which most whites participate in — no matter how unaware you may be (like some of the commentators appearing insulted as they steep their herbal tea).
If this blog gets you in a tizzy, please don’t visit mine — I am one of the white people this blog talks about — a title I both embrace and shun equally LOL
At least I have a sense of humor about it though.
Keep up the good work, I love this blog.
How the hell do you figure I’m a racist?
Free my goat.
There was a white journalist in DC who was sentenced to jail for being in contempt of court. She didn’t mind going to jail, but protested that she should go to jail in Virginia because the DC Jail was overcrowded and unsafe.
Since when do we get to choose which jail we get to live in? WHITE PEOPLE!! – they don’t mind going to jail if they have private toilets, plenty of books, and no rape.
White people also like Ethnic Indie Rockers/child actors:

I own three Rage Against the Machine CDs. What does that say about me?
That you’re an idiot?
Thats just some anti-white jewboy. Hoiw about Ernst Zundel? he is a holoco$t revisionist, he is locked up for his views. Insane!
Here’s a tip.
Ignore any political prisoner from all communist-socialist-revolutionary governments.
Don’t bore your white friends with tales of gulags, cuban prisons, or the millions killed by Mao and Stalin.
They will surely change the subject or flatly refuse being your friend.
The trick is to be politically correct.
Cheers!

New York, December 5, 2008) – The international community should protest the imprisonment and secret sentencing of Paljor Norbu, an 81-year-old Tibetan traditional printer, and seek his immediate exoneration and unconditional release, Human Rights Watch said today.
Norbu, whose Chinese name is Panjue Ruobu (班觉诺布), was taken by the police from his home in Lhasa on October 31, 2008, on suspicion that he had printed “prohibited material,” including the banned Tibetan flag. During his detention, judicial authorities refused to inform his relatives that he was being detained, or to reveal the charges against him. He was tried in secret in November and sentenced to seven years in prison. A letter informing his family of the sentence was then hand-delivered to them. His current whereabouts are unknown.
“Just about any material on Tibet that lacks the Chinese Communist Party’s explicit blessing is ‘prohibited material,'” said Sophie Richardson, Asia advocacy director at Human Rights Watch. “But no one should be jailed for printing flags, books, or pictures just because a government would prefer to suppress those ideas – that’s why freedom of expression is a basic right.”
Although the authorities have not made public the details of the verdict, the nature of the initial accusations leveled against Norbu and the length of the sentence suggest that he was tried on charges of “inciting separatism” (article 103 of the Criminal Law). This vaguely defined crime has been used repeatedly to silence Tibetans resisting the tight and often arbitrary limits imposed on their freedom of expression by Chinese law.
A descendant of a family with a long history of printing and publishing Buddhist texts for monasteries, Norbu is an internationally renowned master printer. He used both modern and traditional woodblock printing techniques in his workshop, which employed several dozen workers. In addition to religious texts, the shop printed prayer flags, folk reproductions, books, leaflets, and traditional literature.
After Norbu’s arrest, the police closed his shop, affixed notices of official closure on the door, and prohibited employees from returning. The police also confiscated books and woodblocks from the shop’s collection.
“Instead of persecuting Paljor Norbu, the Chinese government should prize his contributions toward historical and cultural preservation,” said Richardson.
Human Rights Watch said that Norbu was not granted even the minimal rights that are supposed to be provided under Chinese criminal procedures. Violations included the failure to notify his family of his formal arrest or of the trial date; the refusal to reveal where he was detained; the failure to allow him defense representation of his choice in court; the failure to communicate the full verdict of the trial; and, the refusal to inform the family of his current whereabouts and of where he will serve his prison term.
Human Rights Watch said it has observed an increase in the number of arrests and convictions related to exercising the freedom of expression in recent weeks, indicating that the crackdown that Chinese authorities threatened after Tibetan protests in March 2008 was extending beyond the people suspected of involvement in those demonstrations. Other recent cases include:
Jigme Gyatso (lay name Jigme Guri), a senior monk from the Labrang monastery, who was re-arrested on November 4 after he described how he had been tortured by the police during his detention in March and who is now in custody in Lanzhou (Gansu province);
Norzin Wangmo (Chinese name: Longzhen Wangmu [龙真旺姆]), an employee of the Judicial Bureau of Hongyuan county (Sichuan province), sentenced on November 3 to five years of imprisonment after he told relatives abroad of the situation in Tibet; and
Dhondup Wangchen, who had been detained in March in Tong De (Qinghai province), for his role in filming a clandestine documentary in the Tibetan areas. He is being held in the Ershilipu detention center in Xining.
“The Chinese government will almost certainly say that the charges brought against Paljor Norbu were ‘in accordance with the law,'” said Richardson. “But, by definition, those laws restrict free speech, and until the government brings its laws into conformity with international human rights norms, we will continue to see peaceful critics like Norbu incarcerated for alleged ‘separatism.'”
The video showed…
That he did that shit….
So the judge just said…
OJ, I must convict!!!…
Saudi Arabia: Rape Victim Punished for Speaking Out
Court Doubles Sentence for Victim, Bans Her Lawyer From the Case
This verdict not only sends victims of sexual violence the message that they should not press charges, but in effect offers protection and impunity to the perpetrators.
Farida Deif, researcher in the women’s rights division of Human Rights Watch
Related Materials: Saudi Arabia: Lift Gag-Order on Rights CampaignerA court in Saudi Arabia doubled its sentence of lashings for a rape victim who had spoken out in public about her case and her efforts to seek justice, Human Rights Watch said today. The court also harassed her lawyer, banning him from the case and confiscating his professional license.
An official at the General Court of Qatif, which handed down the sentence on November 14, said the court had increased the woman’s sentence because of “her attempt to aggravate and influence the judiciary through the media.” The court sentenced the rape victim to six months in prison and 200 lashes, more than double its October 2006 sentence after its earlier verdict was reviewed by Saudi Arabia’s highest court, the Supreme Council of the Judiciary.
Human Rights Watch called on King Abdullah to immediately void the verdict and drop all charges against the rape victim and to order the court to end its harassment of her lawyer.
“A courageous young woman faces lashing and prison for speaking out about her efforts to find justice,” said Farida Deif, researcher in the women’s rights division of Human Rights Watch. “This verdict not only sends victims of sexual violence the message that they should not press charges, but in effect offers protection and impunity to the perpetrators.”
The young woman, who is married, said she had met with a male acquaintance who had promised to give her back an old photograph of herself. After she met her acquaintance in his car in Qatif, a gang of seven men then attacked and raped both of them, multiple times. Despite the prosecution’s requests for the maximum penalty for the rapists, the Qatif court sentenced four of them to between one and five years in prison and between 80 and 1,000 lashes. They were convicted of kidnapping, apparently because prosecutors could not prove rape. The judges reportedly ignored evidence from a mobile phone video in which the attackers recorded the assault.
Moreover, the court in October 2006 also sentenced both the woman and man who had been raped to 90 lashes each for what it termed “illegal mingling.” Human Rights Watch is particularly concerned that the criminalization of any contact between unmarried individuals of the opposite sex in Saudi Arabia severely impedes the ability of rape victims to seek justice. A court may view a woman’s charge of rape as an admission of extramarital sexual relations (or “illegal mingling”) unless she can prove, by strict evidentiary standards, that this contact was legal and the intercourse was nonconsensual.
In an interview in December, the rape victim described to Human Rights Watch her treatment in court:
“At the first session, [the judges] said to me, ‘what kind of relationship did you have with this individual? Why did you leave the house? Do you know these men?’ They asked me to describe the situation. They used to yell at me. They were insulting. The judge refused to allow my husband in the room with me. One judge told me I was a liar because I didn’t remember the dates well. They kept saying, ‘Why did you leave the house? Why didn’t you tell your husband [where you were going]?’”
“Victims of sexual violence in Saudi Arabia face enormous obstacles in the criminal justice system,” said Deif. “Their interrogations and court hearings are more likely to compound the trauma of the original assault than provide justice.”
During the recent hearings, Judge al-Muhanna of the Qatif court also banned the woman’s lawyer, Abd al-Rahman al-Lahim, from the courtroom and from any future representations of her, without apparent reason. He also confiscated his lawyer’s identification card, which the Ministry of Justice issues. Al-Lahim faces a disciplinary hearing at the Ministry of Justice on December 5, where sanctions can include suspension for three years and disbarment.
Al-Lahim, who is Saudi Arabia’s best-known human rights lawyer, earlier this year had planned to take legal action against the Ministry of Justice for failing to provide him with a copy of the verdict against his client so that he could prepare an appeal. Despite numerous representations to the court and the ministry, he was not given a copy of the case file or the verdict.
“The decision to ban the rape victim’s lawyer from the case shows what little respect Saudi authorities have for the legal profession or the law in general,” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch.
On October 3, King Abdullah announced a judicial reform, promising new specialized courts and training for judges and lawyers. There is currently no rule of law in Saudi Arabia, which does not have a written penal code. Judges do not follow procedural rules and issue arbitrary sentences that vary widely. Often, judges do not provide written verdicts, even in death penalty cases. Judges sometimes deny individuals their right to legal representation.
– The Iranian government is escalating its attacks against women activists, subjecting them to arbitrary detention, travel bans, and harassment, Human Rights Watch said today.
On October 26, 2008, security agents blocked Sussan Tahmasebi, a leader of the One Million Signatures Campaign for Equality, from boarding a plane and confiscated her passport, without charging her with any crime. At her home, they confiscated her computer and demanded that she report to court for interrogation. The government has prevented Tahmasebi from leaving the country for the past two years, but has never brought charges against her or provided a reason for her travel ban.
“Instead of seeking to silence women’s rights advocates who draw attention to the urgent need for reform, the government should move to repeal Iran’s discriminatory laws,” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch.
Human Rights Watch said the Judiciary has prosecuted more than 100 women’s rights activists over the past three years and continues to detain, intimidate, and prohibit from traveling a number of other women’s rights activists, particularly those involved in the One Million Signatures Campaign for Equality. The grassroots campaign aims to raise awareness of Iranian laws that sanction discrimination against women, by collecting 1 million signatures throughout the country in an effort to repeal them.
“Black Rednecks, White Liberals”
The title is based on Sowell’s thesis about the origins of the black culture found in modern black society. He argues that what is claimed to be ‘authentic black culture’ is actually a relic of a highly dysfunctional white southern redneck culture, and the dependent slave culture.
This in turn came from the ‘Cracker culture’ from the border regions in Britain; namely, the North Britons and Scots-Irish who migrated from the harsh English border. Sowell gives a number of examples that he regards as supporting the lineage, e.g., an aversion to work, proneness to violence, neglect of education, sexual promiscuity, improvidence, drunkenness, lack of entrepreneurship,… and a style of religious oratory marked by strident rhetoric, unbridled emotions, and flamboyant imagery.[1]
Sowell also provides figures to support his argument that there was a far bigger divide between the cracker/redneck culture and the North than between white and black. E.g. Northern blacks tried to stop redneck blacks coming up from the South, and the same happened between northern whites and redneck whites. He also shows how northern blacks were more successful and better educated than poor southern whites before the post-Civil War exodus of free blacks out of the South.
1. Soldiers killing, raping, and looting: “I don’t know how much longer we’ll last.”
In late October 2008, the CNDP rebels pressed their advantage and moved south toward the North Kivu provincial capital of Goma. Congolese army soldiers panicked and fled toward Kanyabayonga in the north and toward Goma and Minova in the south, creating chaos in their wake. Poorly trained, these soldiers are not regularly paid, nor are they adequately supplied with food and other materials. On the night of October 29, they rampaged through Goma, killing at least 20 civilians, including five children, and injuring more than a dozen others. They raped over a dozen women and girls and they looted shops and homes alike. Some stole vehicles to transport themselves and their pillaged goods out of Goma.
Twenty-year-old Marie and her 57-year-old grandmother Berthe were both raped on the night of October 31 by men in Congolese army uniforms in a village just outside of Goma.
Marie:
“Two soldiers came up to me and asked me to give them my goats. I said I didn’t have any. They then asked for my pigs. Again, I said I didn’t have any. They turned to another woman and asked her for her beans and bananas. She gave what she had, and the soldiers told me to carry the bananas for them into the hills. When we got to the hill, one of the soldiers pushed me to the ground. He put the blunt side of his machete on my neck and the handle of his rifle on my chest. Then he raped me. When he was finished, he called the other soldier and he raped me too. Then they told me I could go. As I fled, they shot their rifles into the banana plantation. I fell to the ground, pretending I was dead. They then left and I ran back to my family.”
The two soldiers who raped Marie were wearing Congolese army uniforms, and they spoke Lingala, the language spoken in western DRC. Hours later, Marie’s grandmother Berthe was raped by another soldier, also wearing a Congolese army uniform, but speaking Kinyarwanda, a language spoken by Congolese people of Rwandan origin as well as by Rwandans.
Berthe:
“The soldier followed me and my neighbor from the main road to our village. When we got to the village, he told us to go inside a house that wasn’t ours. He then called the other woman to come out with him. Seconds later, I heard three gunshots outside and my neighbor had been killed. The soldier came back inside and told me he was going to have sex with me. I asked how he could sleep with someone my age. To save myself, I told him I had AIDS and I begged him to let me go. But he refused. He pushed me onto the bed and raped me. Then he left. I tried to follow him to see which direction he fled, but I was too weak. Later that night, six other women I know were raped in the neighboring village of Kanyarutshinya. We don’t know who was responsible.”
Both Marie and her grandmother went to seek medical care the next day, but the health center was out of medicine. “Since I was raped, my husband has rejected me and I’ve been weak and traumatized,” Berthe said. “But what worries us most is hunger and sickness. I don’t know how much longer we’ll last.”
Elsewhere in North Kivu, where FDLR combatants dominated the area, they too carried out rapes and other abuses. One of the victims interviewed at a displaced persons camp was Liliane.
Liliane:
“One time, when I tried to go back to my village, the FDLR stopped me and raped me. They took me on the side of the road, near the village Buhuga. There were eight FDLR combatants. I was with seven other girls. All of us were raped. The other girls were from my village, but they don’t live in this camp. They took us at 2 p.m. and let us go the next day at 4 p.m. We spent the night with them and then they let us go. One soldier raped me; there was one soldier for each girl. They abused us badly. They used their weapons to threaten us, but they didn’t use them against us. I was 17-years-old when this happened. The other girls were 16, 17, and 18 years old. We all went to the hospital at Rutshuru after this happened. I studied until the sixth primary level, but I can’t study now that I’m displaced. I just want the FDLR and the CNDP to leave so I can return home and continue my life.”
2. Civilians trapped in combat zones: “Some didn’t have time to flee…”
Some 250 civilians have been killed in North Kivu since late August, many of them caught in the crossfire or killed by stray bullets and shrapnel as they attempted to run from the combat. Civilians have been especially at risk due to the increased, often indiscriminate use of artillery, mortars, and other heavy weapons. While many of the latest battles have been fought in or very close to large population centers, including camps for displaced people, the fighting parties have rarely, if ever, given the populations any advance warning and enough time to flee. Sometimes armed groups have deliberately blocked populations from fleeing.
Originally from Rugari (Rutshuru territory), Pierre has lived in the displaced persons camp in Kibumba since October 2007. He was in the camp in October 2008 when the Congolese army and CNDP rebels began fighting nearby. As mortar shells fell and bullets flew in every direction, Pierre and the others in the camp hastily tried to pack up their belongings and run. Many didn’t make it.
Pierre:
“It all happened very quickly. We saw the people from Rugari [north of Kibumba] fleeing and running towards us, and at the same time, we heard lots of gunshots. The Congolese army soldiers were retreating, with the CNDP advancing behind them. Then the mortar shells from Rwanda fell around us. Many civilians were killed and wounded. One shell fell in the camp for widows, right next to the MONUC [United Nations peacekeepers] compound. I saw the body of a woman in the camp who had been decapitated by that shell. I also saw a 17-year-old boy and a 35-year-old man, the father of six children, killed by the mortar shells. Another 65-year-old man was killed by bullet when the CNDP soldiers arrived in the camp.
“Many other civilians were killed or wounded, but I was focused on running away and didn’t have time to check all the bodies. Some didn’t have time to flee; those who weren’t killed were blocked in Kibumba by the CNDP. We don’t know if they’re still alive today, but the news from there isn’t good. We’ve heard that many of the women were raped and that the young men and boys like me were recruited by force for military service.”
3. Displaced civilians: “We have to go back because we’re hungry”
Displaced civilians in North Kivu rarely find enough food to feed their families. They often face the bleak choice of dying of hunger in the camps or risking their lives by returning to their farms in search of food, usually in areas controlled by one or another of the armed groups. If caught, they are likely to be accused of spying for or sympathizing with the enemy. Many are arbitrarily arrested, tortured, or mutilated; others are killed.
When heavy fighting broke out in Ntamugenga (Rutshuru territory) on August 28, Jean fled with his wife and seven children to Rubare, a few kilometers away. Because they received no food assistance, Jean decided to go back to their farm, near Ntamugenga, to look for food. Soon after he crossed into the area controlled by Nkunda’s CNDP, he was stopped by eight CNDP soldiers – armed with rifles, machetes, and spears. They took Jean to a nearby house and locked him inside with 11 people, three of them women, who had been captured.
Jean:
“After 30 minutes, one of the soldiers came back and said he was going to exterminate us all,” Jean recalled. “He then turned to me and put his machete against my ear. He cut at my ear, slowly, slowly, back and forth. He said he would cut me, part by part, until I die. The other prisoners started to cry out, and the soldier left me to hit them on their heads with the back of his machete. He then came back to me and started to cut at the back of my neck. When the others cried out even louder, the soldier brought me and another prisoner outside. They forced the other man to lie naked on the ground while they beat him with wooden sticks and sliced his buttocks with a machete. Eventually one soldier convinced the others to let us go. I ran through the forest, with blood streaming from my neck and ear, until I reached a health center.”
After Jean’s wounds were treated he returned to his family in Rubare, traumatized, scarred, and still without food.
“They do this kind of thing every day against people who have fled and try to go back to their farms. Some are able to flee after they’re captured and beaten; others do not make it. We have to go back because we’re hungry.”
If white people were sentenced the EXACT same way as non-whites are in the US for similar crimes, the jails would be filled to the brim with whitefolk…
75% of all offenders are in jail for drug offenses, such as drug POSSESSION……the NY Times had an article out a few months ago talking about how WHITES who are caught USING/ POSSESSING drugs are disproportionally put into drug REHAB, whereas non-whites are thrown IN JAIL for the same amount of drugs…..
In my opinion, people who USE drugs are self-abusers and should be getting treatment, NOT jail time…..If self abuse was a criminal act, then everyone starring in the movie JACKASS should be doing at least 10 years…..or people who get drunk IN BARS should be in jail……and for all those people who state that “drugs are illegal and alcohol is not”, I would challenge you to look up which drug kills the most people: alcohol, cigarettes, heroin, weed, cocaine…….
ANSWER: The legal drugs kill a disproportionally higher number of people (alcohol and cigarettes) than the illegal drugs……look it up…..
As for your example Tanner…you did not state what the crime was that yielded the community service sentence, so why would i believe your ‘cautionary tale’ about what happened afterwards??…..Your main point was to show that all the ‘guilty’ involved were ‘black’, and then you tried to cover up this fact with a weak ‘5 blacks, whites and hispanics are now dead’ (every skin color getting victimized…coincidentally?)…..
The bottom line is that race and justice have NEVER been fair and balanced in the US…..and probably never will…..it has always been WHITE MAN’S JUSTICE…..so I don’t understand why some white folk, like Tanner, are complaining about the justice system….the scales are tipped to favor people like you in the first place!!
I don’t know…….
I guess it is the same feeling as….
“why must i feel like that…
why must i chase the cat…..
must be the DOG in me….
nuthin’ but the dog in me….
bow wow wow
yippie yo yippie yay….”
Or maybe you just enjoy smacking away that ‘warm and fuzzy” look from white folks faces…..
Hey, I love Rage Against the Machine. I mean, not like some people, but they have dece lyrics and awesome bass lines. You leave De La Roche alone.
Peltier and Mumia both ‘did it’ and it was self defense in both cases, Mumias brother was being pistol whipped, Peltier was responding to the FBI condoned ‘reign of terror’ as well as racism within the tribe.
The self defense defense was abandoned early on in both cases due to lack of faith in the system.
George Jackson fooled many well meaning whites i.e. he used revolution as a booty call.
The New Class Struggle?
Economic Inequality and Political Polarization in the United States
by Michael C. Behrent
Nolan McCarty, Keith T. Poole, and Howard Rosenthal, Polarized America: The Dance of Ideology and Unequal Riches, The MIT Press, 2006.
In the final days of July, the American Congress voted to do something it had not done in nearly ten years: to raise the minimum wage. Since 1997, the minimum wage has been locked in at $5.15 an hour. This period largely, though not completely, coincides with the Republican party’s domination of all elected branches of the American government [1]. So why did this long-neglected issue suddenly become a matter of pressing concern for George W. Bush’s party? With midterm elections in November, the Republicans, who will be facing the toughest challenge to their majorities in years, were eager to claim some achievements in the final days of what many have derided as a “do-nothing” Congress. Yet the Republican plan, which would have raised the minimum wage $2.10 in several increments over three years to $7.25, did not reflect a sudden concern with the well-being of their most impoverished compatriots. This nod to the less fortunate had its price: attached to the minimum wage legislation was a provision to permanently reduce the estate tax, which would, by 2015, extend the fiscal exemption on inherited wealth to $5 million. By connecting these two measures, the Republicans hoped to cajole Senate Democrats into backing a major tax cut, which, with the help of the Senate rules, they might otherwise have been in a position to block. This rather transparent ruse gave the Democrats a perfect opportunity to roll out the rhetoric they know best: the denunciation of economic inequalities. Thus the Senate minority leader, Harry Reid of Nebraska, declared in late July: “If the Republicans were serious about raising the minimum wage for the first time in nearly 10 years and extending tax relief for working Americans, they would not hold them hostage in their effort to give the wealthiest Americans hundreds of billions more in additional tax giveaways.” [2]. In the end, however, it all came to naught: on August 3, the Senate reached an impasse, and the next day, the congressmen and congresswomen flew back to their districts for several weeks of summer campaigning, each party preparing to blame the other for its indifference to the needs of ordinary Americans [3]
In connecting the incomes of the poorest wage-earners to the fortunes of the wealthiest Americans, this congressional debate stands as an ironic symbol for one of the more alarming trends of contemporary American society: that of ever-increasing economic inequality. While this problem may in itself hardly be new, what is remarkable is how frequently the current conversation about inequality invokes the word “class.” One of the main traits of what is known as “American exceptionalism,” after all, has been the constitutive unwillingness of Americans to view their society through the lens of class, at least in the same way that socialists have in many parts of the world. This was the problem that motivated the German sociologist Werner Sombart to write in 1906 his controversial essay Why Is There No Socialism in the United States?, the text that launched the debate about American exceptionalism, at least in one of its most important forms. How could it be, Sombart wondered, that the United States was the most completely capitalist society in the world, while also being the society most completely lacking in what should have been the natural consequence of capitalism: class struggle, expressing itself in a powerful socialist party. The answers that Sombart offered—the fact that American political parties cut across class lines, the relatively high standard of living of American workers, a democratic rather than an aristocratic style of life, the availability of cheap land, and the fact that American workers are not only patriotic, but truly “love” capitalism [4]—continue to be invoked to explain why, despite the glaring inequalities in American society, class war and socialism have not become permanent fixtures of the American social universe the way that they have (or at least did) in Europe. Of course, American history, like French grammar, is filled with exceptions to exceptions (or exceptionalism). In the early decades of the twentieth century, the so-called “progressive historians” insisted that conflict between economic groups had been the dominant force in American history; one of them, Charles A. Beard, even argued in a famous study that the provisions of the United States’ much revered constitution served the economic interests of the Founding Fathers [5]. In 1944, Franklin Roosevelt denounced the “royalists of the economic order,” even as he proposed to supplement the provisions of the Bill of Rights with a broad array of social and economic [6]. Cold War liberals like the late John Kenneth Galbraith insisted on the need for “countervailing powers” to offset that of corporations when they trampled on the delicate texture of democratic life [7].
The idea that a specter might be haunting George W. Bush’s America no doubt sounds implausible—to say the least. Yet if a spate of press stories, new books, and scholarly studies is any indication, there are signs that a new consciousness is emerging about the scale of the economic disparities afflicting American society, and with it, a growing willingness to think about American society in terms of class. Take Barbara Ehrenreich. At the peak of the economic boom of the late nineties, Ehrenreich, a journalist and prolific writer on social issues, sought employment in a series of low-wage jobs to determine if it was possible to make ends meet as a member of the working class in the new economy—whether as a waitress, a maid, or a Wal-Mart employee. Yet as she recounts in Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America, she soon discovered a hidden world of men and women working several jobs with few (if any) days off, living in motels or cars (because they lack the bank accounts and credit ratings needed to even be offered regular—and cheaper—housing); not seeing doctors when they are sick because they lack health insurance and cannot afford to miss work; nourishing themselves on fast food because they have neither the time nor the utensils (and thus the money) to cook; and being forced by their employers to submit to humiliating drug tests and searches of their belongings. Ehrenreich remarks: “I grew up hearing over and over again, to the point of tedium, that ‘hard work’ was the secret of success … No one ever said that you could work hard—harder than you ever thought possible—and still find yourself sinking ever deeper into poverty and debt.” [8]. In another recent study, the journalist David Shipler, has elaborated on many of Ehrenreich’s insights, detailing how the low wages upon which the “working poor” subsist effectively shut them out of the mainstream of American society, depriving them not only of the income, but also the homes, the telephones, the clothes, the health, and the access to credit necessary to acquire a minimum of social visibility [9].
Last year, no less a bastion of the establishment than the New York Times brought these questions to its front page in a prolonged series on—the dirty little word is out—“class” in America. The Times assessed the role of class in contemporary American society by presenting a series of social vignettes, considering, for instance, how class determines the choice of a spouse, or the likelihood that one will complete a four-year college. A particularly revealing piece compared the different experiences of upper-class, middle-class, and working-class heart attack victims. Explaining the discrepancies in the care they received, the article quotes a doctor who believes that the United States is “transforming health, which used to be like fate, into a commodity. Like the distribution of BMWs or goat cheese.” [10]. If there is a general insight to be gleaned from this empirical study, it is that, in contemporary America, class plays a decidedly paradoxical role. On the one hand, class seems to be disappearing, as Janny Scott and David Leonhardt explain: “Today, the country has gone a long way towards an appearance of classlessness. Americans of all sorts are awash in luxuries that would have dazzled their grandparents. Social diversity has erased many of the old markers. It has become harder to read people’s status in the clothes they wear, the cars they drive, the votes they cast, the god they worship, the color of their skin.” And yet, at the same time, “class is still a powerful force in American life. Over the past three decades it has come to play a greater, not a lesser, role in important ways. At a time when education matters more than ever, success in school remains linked tightly to class. At a time when the country is increasingly integrated racially, the rich are isolating themselves more and more.” [11]. One imagines Werner Sombart smiling.
This new rhetoric of class is not just the residual utopianism or poorly digested Marxism of old “New Leftists”; it has found proponents on the right as well. David Brooks, the conservative New York Times columnist who once claimed to have discovered a new social class (the “bobos” [12]), has shown an interest in class dymanics in his recent writings. In a recent article entitled “Karl’s New Manifesto,” he quoted (no doubt with a wink and a nod) the famous opening lines of Marx’s text (“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggle”), approving the central insight, but qualifying Marx’s theory (no doubt to the relief of his admirers) by arguing that the class conflict is now primarily mediated through education: “in the information age, in which knowledge is power and money, the class struggle is fought between an educated elite and the undereducated masses.” [13]. Then there is the strange case of Kevin Phillips. In 1968, Phillips was a brilliant young Republican election guru. He is widely credited with devising the Richard Nixon’s “southern strategy,” which successfully pitched the Republican party to southern voters who, for nearly a century, had lived under one-party (i.e., Democratic) rule, thus hastening the most significant political realignment the past century. Yet since the late eighties, Phillips has soured on the very party whose current hegemony he helped to establish. He came to see the Reagan Era as a “Second Gilded Age” (a reference to the closing decades of the nineteenth century, when the fantastic fortunes of the Rockefellers and Carnegies were made), and feared that conservative values were threatened by massive concentrations of wealth and government policies that favored them [14]. Recently, Phillips’ denunciation of the plutocratic tendencies of the Republican party, in weighty diatribes produced at an almost yearly rate, have grown ever more bitter—and surprisingly personal. In 2004, he deplored the growth of inequality by presenting a scathing history of “the House of Bush,” which he cast as a plutocratic American “dynasty” whose rise to power, through a shady collusion of business interests and politics, represents a “Machiavellian Moment for the American Republic.” [15]. A disillusioned conservative, Phillips sees inequality not in Marxist but in Jeffersonian terms: it is a consequence of the corruption of republican government, in which the commonweal is undermined by the private interests of the fabulously rich.
While the new American conversation about class leads in different directions, it rests on a diagnosis that few dispute: the emergence, since the 1970s, of a minute class of the phenomenally rich people, whose wealth not only dwarfs that of the middle class, but even vastly exceeds that of the “merely” rich. David Cay Johnston, a financial reporter for the Times and a leading authority on tax matters, has determined that the top one-thousandth of American taxpayers—some 145,000 people—received an average income of $3 million in 2002, compared to “only” $1.2 million in 1980. Other income groups did not grow at even close to this rate. Moreover, over the same period, the share of the nation’s income that went to this category doubled, reaching 7.4% [16]. At the very summit of the income pyramid, some four hundred individuals earned an average of $174 million in 2000, or three times what they made in 1993. This, Johnston points out, “works out to be about half a million dollars per day, or $2.5 million every five days, which is more than most Americans make in a lifetime.” [17].

Wal-Mart, Total social fact?
How times have changed for the Democrats! From 1986 to 1992, as her husband stood poised to realign his party along Third Way lines, Hillary Clinton sat on the board of directors of Wal-Mart, that beacon of American capitalism founded in her adopted state of Arkansas in 1962. Yet in August 2006, Democrats vying for office were lining up to take shots at Wal-Mart, now derided as the devil incarnate. Joe Biden, a Delaware senator with his eye on the presidency, harangued the sweltering summer crowds in Iowa: “My problem with Wal-Mart is that I don’t see any indication that they care about the fate of middle-class people. They talk about paying them $10 an hour. That’s true. How can you live a middle-class life on that?” [18].
In the looming American debate about inequality, all roads lead to Wal-Mart, the most striking emblem of contemporary American capitalism. It is the largest private employer in the United States, as well as in Mexico; it is the world’s second largest corporation, and its largest retailer; earning $258 billion in 2003, its revenues account for 2% of the United States’ GDP [19]. Each week, it is estimated, some 100 million Americans—over a third of the population—enter one of Wal-Mart’s 3,800 or so stores to buy groceries, toys, clothes, gas—and pretty much anything else. And yet even as it embodies the dazzling success of American entrepreneurialism, Wal-Mart is, sociologically and culturally, part of the fabric American working class life. The source of Wal-Mart’s success is its commitment to “Every Day Low Prices,” thanks to which it consistently undersells its competitors. As a result, it caters to the needs of the least prosperous Americans: its customers, studies show, often earn salaries well below the national average. They are much less likely to have bank accounts than their compatriots [20]. Yet low wage-earners not only make up Wal-Mart’s clientele; they are also its employees. The company’s extraordinary gains in productivity in recent decades are closely connected to its relentless efforts to hold down labor costs. In 2003, the average hourly pay of a Wal-Mart clerk was $8.50, which adds up to $14,000 a year—or $1,000 less than the federal government’s definition of poverty for a three-person family [21].
In contemporary America, the social question is, in many respects, the Wal-Mart question. In addition to low salaries, Bentonville—the town in rural Arkansas where the company has its corporate headquarters—stands accused, among other vices, of providing its employees with insufficient social benefits: only 44% of its 1.3 million American can pay for the company health insurance plan [22]. Moreover, due to the poor wages and benefits, many Wal-Mart employees depend on aid from the states and the federal government to supplement their income. George Miller, a California Democrat in the House of Representatives, noted in a 2004 report that a hypothetical Wal-Mart store with 200 employees could cost taxpayers as much as $420,750 in children’s health care subsidies, housing assistance, federal tax credits, and other forms of aid [23]. Rather than the shining star of American entrepreneurialism, Wal-Mart, these critics maintain, is in fact a shameless recipient of “corporate welfare” (i.e., of public subsidies to private corporations). Bentonville is also regularly criticized of hiring illegal immigrants, of discriminating against female workers, and of imposing patronizing and excessively disciplinary workplace rules on its employees—which it insists on calling “associates.”
The problem that best reveals Wal-Mart’s place in a burgeoning class war is its policies on unionization. Bentonville maintains a vigilant watch over its stores, protecting them from the any sign of union activity. Store managers, it is reported, are issued a guide called “The Manager’s Toolbox to Remaining Union Free,” which counsels them to beware of “frequent meetings at associates’ homes” and of “associates who are never seen together…talking or associating with each other.” [24]. In the event that a unionization drive actually does get underway, Bentonville immediately dispatches a crack legal team to thwart it. Thus in 2000, meat-cutters employed by a Wal-Mart in Jacksonville, Texas, succeeded, against the odds, in establishing the first union in the company’s history, when they voted by a margin of 7 to 3 to join the United Food and Commercial Workers Union (UFCW). A mere two weeks later, Wal-Mart announced that it would be ending meat-cutting operations in 180 stores in six states—including the trouble-making store in Jacksonville. Bentonville’s reason? The company, it insisted, needed to keep up with the industry-wide trend towards selling pre-wrapped meats. “This decision was in no way related to the Jacksonville situation,” Bentonville asserted [25].
An emblem of class conflict, Wal-Mart is also a symbol of the polarization of American politics. Surveying the data of the last presidential election, the pollster John Zogby noticed striking correlations between shopping and voting habits: 76% of voters who enter a Wal-Mart once a week cast ballots for George W. Bush, while 80% of those who never go to Wal-Mart supported John Kerry. “Wal-Mart is more than retail,” Zogby remarks. “It has become a culture unto itself.” [26].
Dude, Pelitier went up to the FBI officer, and shot him in the head. It’s like CSI Pine Ridge. All the evidence is there. The bullet holes where going into the palms of the agents hand, and out the back. He was kneeling on the ground, with his hands up in the air when Pelitier executed him.
And Mumia, something similiar.

The end
I thought the same thing, but I think that is the point of the author…to show the stupidity of the white people he mocks.
The glow from the Farafina Coffee Shop on West 116th Street one evening last week was warm, the smell of frying fish and fufu sweetly familiar, the conversation among the West African men gathered inside easy. But as the large television broadcast yet another report about the police shooting of Amadou Diallo, an immigrant from Guinea, the feeling was sour.
”We are afraid, we are afraid,” said Silla Sidique, 35, a Guinean businessman who lives in Harlem. He nodded as Mamoudou Jawara, 30, also a Guinean businessman, described being repeatedly stopped by the police near his Staten Island home, asked for his license, and occasionally told by officers to ”go back to Africa.”
”I want to go back before somebody kills me,” said Mr. Sidique, who has been in the country a year.
For Africans, particularly West Africans, Mr. Diallo’s death has only reinforced the vulnerability they feel as black immigrants in New York City. They left a continent where they were a racial majority — where divisions were based on class or politics or tribe but rarely on skin color — for a country where they are a minority and where, they say, race matters all too much.
And the fatal shooting of Mr. Diallo on Feb. 4 has highlighted their insularity, living in but not necessarily assimilating in a country they view with caution. Like many West Indians, they have chosen to remain largely apart from African-Americans here, although Mr. Diallo’s shooting shows signs of forging bonds between the two groups.
Many African immigrants say that whether they stay here for 2 or 20 years, Africa is, and always will be, home.
Yet more are coming to New York City than ever. From 1990 to 1996, the number of sub-Saharan Africans here nearly doubled, to about 84,000 from 44,000, said Andrew A. Beveridge, a professor of sociology at Queens College. Most are from West Africa.
By the 2000 census, Dr. Beveridge said, the official count will exceed 100,000 — and the real count will probably be higher. Compared with other groups, like Dominicans, whose numbers will most likely pass 500,000 in the next census, their numbers are still small, but their presence is becoming visible.
It is most notable in the restaurants and businesses and mosques lining West 116th Street, but also in scattered pockets around the city, from Morris Heights in the Bronx to Clifton on Staten Island to Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn.
The Africans arriving are diverse in origin and language and religion, and in station and aspiration. While Nigerians and Ghanaians remain the most numerous among sub-Saharan African groups in the city, many new arrivals are, like Mr. Diallo, from West Africa, and many, like him, are Muslim. They greet one another softly with ”Bon soir” or ”Salaam aleikum,” or in African dialects like Fulani.
The common perception of Africa as a desperate continent, bleeding from wounds of war and poverty, would suggest that its inhabitants are equally desperate to escape it. Many are. But others are well-educated, and often have relatively good jobs in their homeland. They simply want to see if there is something better beyond their country’s borders, and many crave more education than Africa can offer.
”The reason most Africans leave to come here is not different from the reasons any European leaves for — for education, upward mobility, to maintain their family, to start as an entrepreneur,” said Sidique Abubakarr Wai, the president of the United African Congress, one of the many groups that the African diaspora has created in the United States.
As with countless other immigrants, many Africans say that what they find here is far from what they expected. ”Everyone thinks America is like ‘Dallas,’ ” Dame Babou, a Senegalese immigrant who is the host of a radio show broadcast here and in Dakar, said of the television show that has given people around the world a false picture of lavish American wealth.
Not surprisingly, then, interviews with more than 100 Africans around the city suggest a profound ambivalence about America: they cherish its economic opportunity, its political freedom and its education system, but they dislike its racism and its violence, and they disdain its values.
Numbers Begin To Increase in the 80’s
Historically negligible, the number of Africans in New York began to increase in the 1980’s as a result of drought, inflation and repression in Africa. In 1986, several thousand Africans were granted amnesty, enabling relatives to follow.

ok, but do you understand the reign of terror and its impact across the res?
i’m speaking to context, as well as ‘mens rea’ ….who was Peltier and what was in his mind that day at Pine Ridge? Have you studied native american culture? North American history? the past, and thereby context, matter not only as mitigators but as primary causes.
The Mumia case was typical prejudice Philadelphia police work when it involved blacks during that time….they did not care WHO did the deed……any black person would do…..and Mumia was the chosen one….
Phili cops were notorious for their bias against non-whites from the 1960s thru the early 1990s…….so was the prosecutors office in Phili……to put a man on death row with only the words of an eye witness…..no other evidence mind you……that by itself should be reason NOT to execute Mumia….
At the Top of the Bottom in the Segregated South
I think that I came to an appreciation of the concept of social class in my earliest years. The segregated South where I was born 20-odd years before Brown v. Board of Education was a place of stark contrasts in black and white. “Negro” families of relative position and privilege, as mine was, inculcated the values of education, citizenship and, as one said back then, breeding with a pertinacity that was as anxious as it was authentic. The rough, undiscerning democracy among pre-pubescent males was leavened by a narcissism of small differences of speech, color, dress, ambitions, etc., none too subtly imparted by watchful mothers whose silent prayer was, “There but for the grace of God….”
Both parents were educators, my father the principal of our city’s first public high school for Negroes. We were people of consequence in the eyes of both “races,” a family who lived, therefore, under the discipline of a double mandate: to be pillars, straightlaced and self-conscious, of social uplift in the community of color; and to serve, at best, as ameliorating agents of relations between the races and, at worst, as hired professionals of the Jim Crow order.
We lived well, our days were mostly sunny, and I know that my parents were stoically undeceived by the objectively equivocal, contingent nature of the advantaged life they gave me and my siblings. We knew we would go to college (with a detour for my older brothers in the segregated armed forces during World War II) and then become lawyers, doctors, teachers and preachers. Within our cocoon of modest material possessions my playmates of the “right sort” and I envisaged a grown-up future of unexceptional assimilatedness. But the life of a class at the top of the bottom can be, and more often than not is, subject to irony, paradox and the crisis of compromise. It was because of an all-of-the-above class lesson that I was spared a coming-of-age experience in the ex-Confederacy that I’ve never had great cause to regret. Because of my father’s position, he had to take a position. He characteristically decided to stand on principle in a major civil rights case. He testified as an authority for the N.A.A.C.P. and against the discriminatory policies of the city public school system. The N.A.A.C.P. prevailed.
In less than a year, as I remember it, our family went from the top of the social heap to pariah status in the dominant community and to an awkward presence as unemployables among its own racial group. From this profoundly instructive trauma, I learned to assume the permanent possibility that, however solid the middle-class reinforcements, race could trump class in my life experience. But there is progress, I think. A broad national consensus now exists that, whenever it is socially and politically advantageous to do so, class considerations should trump racial identity. Race remains integral to Americans’ perception of class, nevertheless. To deny its powerful, subsisting reality would be to endorse a simplistic and ultimately unhelpful evasion.

Sowell is a very clever man, however his thesis is flawed.
The traits that Sowell highlights,
“aversion to work, proneness to violence, neglect of education, sexual promiscuity, improvidence, drunkenness, lack of entrepreneurship”,
are not unique to Scots-Irish “crackers”, indeed these traits could more accurately describe the aristocracy of the period. When you are dealing with a demographic that lived lives of backbreaking labour on the cusp of starvation, is it really valid to describe them as having an “aversion to work”? I’m sure the Scots-Irish had a strong aversion to the degrading exploitation that was their “work”.
Sowell can only genuinely support the specious theory that Blacks “learned” their indolent ways from “crackers” if he can offer evidence that Blacks are naturally disinclined to this type of behaviour when free from the “bad influence” of whites. If we consider the historical accounts of Black Africans (Park, Burton), there is incontrovertible evidence that Blacks were, free from White influence, substantially more indolent, violent, and promiscuous than Whites. Given this it is more logical (but still wrong) to assume that “cracker” culture suffered from the malign influence of Africa.
The differences between Northern and southern Blacks highlighted by Sowell are almost certainly attributable to the fact that Northern Blacks were essentially immigrants. Immigration is a naturally selective process that overwhelmingly favours the most enterprising and intelligent. For these same reasons, the average wealth of Americans living in the UK exceeds the average wealth of Americans living in America.
I’m glad that you are exhibiting a more conservative bent in your choice of literature though.
Lander seems to be unable to understand why “white people” love political prisoners.
“throughout history, all societies have been divided into a caste system of three groups or classes: the High, who are the rulers; the Middle, who yearn to take over the position of the High; and the Low, who are typically so suppressed that in their drudgery they have no goals beyond day-to-day survival. Time and time again down the ages, the Middle have overthrown the High by enlisting the Low on their side, pretending to the Low that after the revolution a just society will emerge. However, once the Middle have taken over, they simply become the new High and thrust the Low back into servitude, and as a new Middle group eventually splits off, the pattern repeats. The Middle only speak of justice and human brotherhood as long as they are seeking power; once they are in power, they simply become the new oppressors of the Low”
That’s why. Support for political prisoners among the white intelligentsia, Orwell’s “middle”, is the hollow rhetoric of “justice and human brotherhood” that Orwell exposed in his magnum opus. The actual guilt, or innocence of the trophy prisoner matters not one iota to the liberal elite. What matters is the opportunity to establish moral credentials for rulership and to co-opt the support of the proletarian base.

Most white people actually only need to sport a Bob Marley t-shirt to become popular. It also makes a great conversation piece.
When I wear one to a night club it only takes a few minutes before a beautiful girl will come up and ask me about my t-shirt. It gives you a chance to pick and choose also.

Stuff White People Like #118: Expressing Moral and/or Political Outrage at a Humor Blog.
So true james!
InEurope , the bourgeoisie wanted to suppress the aristocratie , and succeeded! then made her best to exploit the proletarian class , for whom she promised a lot !!!
The proletarians made the revolution (french 1789, russian 1917 …) and faced the fierce opposition from ???? BOURGEOISIE !!!
History is repeating itself !!! should i say HERSELF !!!
sorry , aristocracy , not aristocratie(french).
No, that is not the key to being politically correct. It is the key to not being the hypocritical downer at the Christmas party by lecturing everyone about the suffering of others as you shovel jalapeño poppers and swig import beer.
I prefer to show my support of freeing political prisoners by doing things that actually matter, like letter-writing campaigns or donating time to organizations actively working for that cause.
Most white people like to talk a lot about political prisoners to let everyone within a 500 foot radius know they listen to NPR (and by extension, are intelligent and socially aware), but really don’t do a thing about it when it actually means well, actually doing something about.
After all, emoting sincerely and passionately about a cause when in the company of people they want to impress is always far more attractive to white people than actually writing a letter for it.
Men used to have the upper hand when it came to confidence in the boardroom, bedroom and the bar.
But, according to new research, men are struggling with a crisis of confidence, with almost half confessing that they feel anxious most of the time – particularly at work and especially around women.
The majority of almost 2,000 men aged 16 to 65 questioned by OnePoll, an independent market research company, admitted struggling to feel confident about their place in society. About half confessed to feeling most insecure when at work, while another 40 per cent also felt inadequate during nights out with friends.
All those questioned by the survey, commissioned by Braun, admitted to feeling increasingly emasculated by women and said their feelings of inadequacy soar when women are present.
Most intimately, one in four men revealed they are racked by feelings of inadequacy during sex, saying that film and television programmes like Sex and the City had made them anxious about not having enough stamina and imagination in the bedroom.
‘Men are more likely than women to have fragile self-esteem, as they judge their status in society through success in a single sphere, such as their career, the size of their pay packet or the model of their car,’ said David Sharpley, of the British Psychological Society. ‘These are all subject to a high degree of ambiguity and risk. Because men are generally poor at introspection and communicating their emotions, this uncertainty can cause the collapse of their self-esteem.
‘But then, because men tend to bottle their emotions, they instinctively fake the confidence they once felt. This exacerbates the problem many times over, because it makes it harder for men to ask for help or for others to see that they need support.’
Dr John Tomlinson, a former GP and trustee of the Sexual Dysfunction Association, said he was hearing from an ‘enormous’ number of 18- to 40-year-olds worried about sexual problems. ‘Advertising – such as David Beckham’s Armani underwear campaign – glamorises the well-toned male body, which men find daunting because they assume it is what women expect,’ he said.
More than half of those questioned confessed they had no constructive male role model – instead having to resort to fictional characters such as James Bond or Indiana Jones – and that they wished their ‘self-image’ was stronger, and more masculine and positive.
But instead of becoming more assured with age, three in four men admitted that their lack of assurance had increased as they got older. The majority of those questioned said they felt most confident when they were between 21 and 30. Just 11 per cent of 40-year-olds and 4.6 per cent of 50-years-olds said they felt more confident now than in their youth.
Respondents also revealed being haunted by the conviction that other men are more confident than they are. Almost half of those questioned believed their boss was more self-assured than they were.
One in three men said they turn to alcohol for Dutch courage to help break the cycle. A surprising one in five had lucky charms, with a third admitting they own ‘lucky’ jewellery, one in four wearing auspicious socks and one in five putting their faith in lucky pants.
Stuff White Pseuds Like: Defining a mild rejection of boring liberal consensus as “Outrage!”
Sorry, Che, but you’re on crack. You literally have no idea what you’re talking about and you sound like a caricature of the caricature that is being depicted in this post. One eyewitness and no evidence? Ha! You are so completely clueless about this case it’s hilarious.
You really have no idea what you’re talking about in the Mumia case.
Mumia isn’t going anywhere so don’t get your boner up for that one.
Especially when they’re cut and paste jobs and “academic” in attempts to make poster appear “well informed.”
I love having a single resource that summarizes so succintly the ways I can unify with my ethnic group. Thanks for the help, web site creator!
“Dr John Tomlinson, a former GP and trustee of the Sexual Dysfunction Association, said he was hearing from an ‘enormous’ number of 18- to 40-year-olds worried about sexual problems”
Which means that some twat who is involved with state funded vanity project is anxious for the tax payer to punt some more money in his direction due to a lurking fear that he may be in danger of having to look for a “job”.
“More than half of those questioned confessed they had no constructive male role model – instead having to resort to fictional characters such as James Bond or Indiana Jones”
In stark departure from the historical male admiration for heroes like Sir Galahad, king Arthur, Robin Hood, Hercules and Prester John. The good doctor also performs a cognitive somersault when he includes David Beckham in his cast of fictional characters.
“A surprising one in five had lucky charms, with a third admitting they own ‘lucky’ jewellery, one in four wearing auspicious socks and one in five putting their faith in lucky pants”
WTF, is that all about? People who believe crap like this are responsible for the present dysfunctionality of Western societies.
hey Jack, why don’t you enlighten us about what YOU know, instead of being so tickled??
Your site is GREAT! I cannot wait to read the book. If you do virtual book tours, I would love to host you at Book Addict, Pop Syndicate’s book blog. Pop Syndicate is also on Facebook.
Thanks! And keep up the laughs.

I will not go so far as to being more conservative across the board, James, but I do have SOME leanings towards conservatism in certain areas…
My conservative leanings are NOT in line with the political conservatives here in the US, though….
Tara, your posting best descibes how I feel about this blog. But I know white people who are genuine about what they do, it’s not just a pose.
BTW, I do not necessarily agree with Sowell totally, but he does make some interesting points……you make some interesting points also…….
I’ve lived in that Philly neighborhood where Faulkner was murdered my entire life, chump. You act like they just picked Wesley off the street just because he was a black guy on the street at the time. They caught the guy red handed with the smoking gun. Try reading up on the substance of the case instead of reading liner notes from Rage Against the Machine albums and lame-ass conspiracy websites from the FREE MUMIA! crowd.
Stop whining!
Are you female abuser? are you a child molester ?
Hey Jack, since when does ‘living in the neighborhood of a slain person’ makes you a credible source? As a matter of fact, dumbass, Mumia was NOT the only person at that murder scene (which you neglected to state), and the ‘so-called witness’ ADMITTED that they were a good distance away AT NIGHT, UNDER DIM LIGHTING, when the murder occurred (or did your memory just go dead with these facts?)….
Your so called ‘red handed with the smoking gun’ statement is an outright lie because the police were not there in a blink of an eye after the murder occurred…..your whole basis for your argument is:
– I lived in the neighborhood all my life (who cares?)
As for your statement, “you act like they just picked Wesley off the street just because he was a black guy on the street at the time.”
…This, in fact, is BASED ON TRUTH when it comes to non-whites dealing with Philadelphia police…you MUST be white because obviously you don’t believe how corrupt those cops, along with the prosecutors office, were back then…
PS: I don’t give a rats ass about this case one way or another….but at least i got the satisfaction of pissing off you!!!…..LOL
Doctor at the hospital where Wesley was taken after the shooting: “The black male made no comments at any time”
Police investigators: “Suspect was yelling ‘i shot the MF!’ ”
question: why were gunshot residue tests not done on Jamals hands?
[again, i do believe he was the shooter, i’m just asking]
you’re funny Buckaroo
Just peruse the comments on other posts, James, and tell me if there isn’t some outrage at the benign jokes this site is built upon. My comment was meant to be more cumulative than focused on political prisoners, so I apologize for the ambiguity. I just meant to say that such “outrage” is quite typical of the white stereotype (i.e., claiming a nominal amount moral or cultural superiority without having to do too much work to justify it to oneself) advanced in jest by this site.
Now there’s a REAL political prisoner!
Actually Western culture does have a double standard for men. Traditionally, men have been “strong.” This is now frowned upon for being brutish and old-fashioned, which is associated with oppressing women and being generally stupid. However, men are not allowed to be sensitive, because people will assume they are weak or gay.
Add popular culture to this. Women are allowed to complain, ask for help and make fun of men’s behaviors in bed. Men, especially white men, have never been oppressed and shouldn’t have anything to complain about. If one were to complain about work a woman would say that he never had to deal with the glass ceiling. If he sees a shrink, he is weak for not bottling it all up and dealing with it like a man. Complaining about women in bed is a really bad move. When they admit to sexual problems they are not just weak, they are also douches.
Mentioning David Beckham is not a “cognitive somersault” his body is the male equivalent to Adriana Lima’s or something, body image is a cross-gender problem.
Your other two points do more to prove him right anyways actually
I dunno- this post might be a stretch.
Personally, I don’t know of any political prisoners, nor do I give a shit. I know Nelson Mandela, but not that abu-whatever guy….
You might be giving white people too much intellectual credit on this one…
lawl!
and I love how a lot of people don’t know the writer of the blog is white, so doublelawlz.
I’d say the situation is that some people are pissed off at a blog mocking the white race at a point in history when so much as farting in the presence of one of our dusky cousins is interpreted as a racist assault. Your interpretation of this pissed-offness as “moral outrage” says a lot about the po-faced, sanctimonious nature of your worldview.
Body image is not a modern problem, or do you actually think all ancient Greeks looked like these statues? Your post is ninety nine percent assertion and one percent argument. Do you have a specific assertion that you want to dispute, or was the above just some random mind fart?
Nelson Mandela was NOT a political prisoner. Mandela was imprisoned for his involvement in a terrorist organization.
White people like to go to Stuff White People Like and then make fun of whiteys who read Nelson Mandela, because that shows how open minded and above racism they are.
Mumia shot a white cop, is a means to oppose the death penalty, and has a street named for him in France. That’s a white win-win-win!
White people could love him more only if he personally executed Cubans point-blank.
…a terrorist organization that was waging a campaign against a larger terrorist organization, the government of South Africa.
Which is not to say that his violence was justified, but simply labeling him as a “terrorist” implies that the government he was fighting was legitimate and just.
no trust theres plenty of concerts for prisoners and stuff like that that white people flood into so they can seem socially aware
What is it about White Americans and the size of their cars (Im specifically talking about the author here and the picture of his mode of transport from his tour diary)? In Yarrup we say that big cars are penile extentions.
How did a silly comment suddenly turn into an attack on my character?
“Which is not to say that his violence was justified, but simply labeling him as a “terrorist” implies that the government he was fighting was legitimate and just”
No it doesn’t. It accepts that he was involved with an organization that murdered hundreds of people in pursuit of political objectives. Although Mandela had many great qualities, he was still a terrorist. A rapist doesn’t stop being a rapist because he does great work for charity.
Probably because my “silly” two line reply prompted you to jump on your high horse and rustle up an eight line response Kevin.
I assure you that talking about a “politically correct” prisoner, that is: any political prisoner except those I mentioned, not only enlivens a party, but gives those hypocrites an air of superiority that is hard to shake. In other words, you are only a downer if you talk about all political prisoners regardless of their ideological views.
“Intelligent and socially aware” implies an objectivity and dedication most people don’t have. When anyone is well informed, impartial, and unburdened by historical prejudices…they are usually not hip.
It seems were on the same wavelenght.
Oh and it seems I did not convey my irony and sarcasm well.
I need to ask my white friends to teach me “wit and sarcasm”…
(Is that an item on the list?)
Cheers!
James, if this is all about Kevin’ choice of the word “outrage”, you’re doing a horrible job of proving that his choice was wrong. You are legitimately outraged that your fulltime job seems to be throwing in as many discrediting comments as possible. I call that being outraged, not “a mild objection”. Like Dr Phil says: own it! 🙂
Try showing your funny side, James! 🙂 Then you won’t be perceived that way.
It’s hard to say, but I bet he burns a lot of crosses arounn
Sorry folks, I hit the mouse with my elbow and the pointer was on “add comment”. It’s too early, I’m going back to bed.
I was talking about my goat not my wife. There’s no way in hell I would free her.
Go cut and paste somewhere else. You’re using up too much paper here.
James, are you saying that the South African government was a legitimate government? Mandela initially protested against this ‘government’ non-violently, which was met with violent action from this ‘government’.
Mandela, in turn, fought the ‘government’, using the ‘government’s’ tactics….violence for violence…
What is interpreted as terrorism were the Aparteid supporters (white minority), whereas the non-white majority (anti-aparteid supporters) interpreted Mandela’s actions of those as a freedom fighter….
“…he was involved with an organization that murdered hundreds of people in pursuit of political objectives….”
Hmmm, now how do you define the Aparteid South African government…..let’s use your words…”…(The Aparteid government) was involved with an organization that murdered hundreds of people in pursuit of political objectives….”
The whole south african government was a terrorist entity that terrorized the 90% majority non-white population for the purpose of political control/ objectives….
another bonus: political prisoners often give white people the chance to prove how much they know about other cultures!
Pablo,
Actually all *4* eyewitnesses to the crime have since passed away, which is why Mumia presses so hard for a retrial. What does the fact that there are people behind bars for their skin color have to do with Mumia being guilty or not? He was found at 3:51am sitting on the curb in front of a dead cop, with an empty shoulder holster under his armpit, with a bullet from the dead cop’s revolver in his chest, and his own registered five shot .38 caliber handgun lying next to his feet, with all five bullets fired, and .38 caliber bullets in Officer faulkner. 4 eyewitnesses testified to 4 separate interrogators with the first hour that they saw him do it. There’s much more evidence against Mumia than there is in the typical guilty verdict in a murder trial.
Free Teddy Afro…
“The whole south african government was a terrorist entity that terrorized the 90% majority non-white population for the purpose of political control/ objectives….”
Rubbish! The indigenous population of the southern cape are/were the San. The San were caught between White incomers from the south and Bantu incomers from the north. The White tribe of Africa were in the cape for longer than the Zulu and for at least as long as the Xhosa. The Boers clashed with the Zulu empire, a ruthless, expansionist military dictatorship, and defeated them in battle. White South Africans created the modern African state and are the legal, lawful and legitimate people of South Africa. The Bantu were a defeated fascist/terrorist collective that has no historical or moral rights in South Africa. The Zulu attempted genocide of the Boers made any participation in the modern sate impossible. If the Bantu didn’t like White rule they should have left and returned to where they came from. As it happened they enjoyed the highest standard of living of any Black African population, and White SA had a constant struggle to protect itself from illegal black migrants.
“you MUST be white because obviously you don’t believe how corrupt those cops, along with the prosecutors office, were back then…”
You just prove what an ignorant racist you are. So you’re from Philadelphia I assume?
At night under dim lighting? Haha. See this is where the fact that I AM from there DOES matter dipshit. The intersection is right in the middle of downtown Philadelphia where its lit 24-7.
Nobody said he was the only person at the murder scene. There were several witnesses who positively identified him. Do you know how many people black, white, and other were on the street at the time but they just happened to pick up the guy with the registered smoking gun with the bullets in him because they’re racists? Haha. Who’s the dumbass again?
Why don’t you try reading the transcripts from the trial? Oh wait let me guess – he was railroaded by the racist justice system and now let’s hear about how Sabo was a racist hanging judge, he didn’t get a fair trial, etc etc etc ad nauseam. But I guess I must be white. You racist clown.
But then they wouldn’t be liberals…
If all that you say is true James, then WHY was this aparteid government NOT recognized by almost every nation with the exception of Israel and some neighboring countries on the border?
The Boers had plenty of blood on their hands along with the British (in my opinion, the non-white had a horrible choice of being in the frying pan (Brits) or jumping into the fire (Boers)…..both regimes were the very definition of racism in southern africa..
As for your statement of ‘the highest standard of living’ for any black African population…..that is a matter of perception….if compared with the white population (which these blacks had to work among), then it was an extremely substandard level of living….sort of saying the chicken has it good with Col. Sanders because the Col. provides food and shelter…as compared to…..a chicken living free, and on its own to find its food and shelter….which would be the black african population without the aparteid government…
The standard of living for the free chickens may not be the same as the chickens who are being fed and housed, but at least the free chickens will not have to pay the ultimate cost for their ‘creature comforts’……Black South Africans paid a very high price for having been under the Aparteid regime..
BTW, could you comment on Israel’s ‘dirty little secret’ as to being one of the most consistent supporters of Aparteid South Africa….I do believe that most people are ignorant on this fact…..
What’s the difference between Seattle and Salt Lake City? There are many differences, of course, but here’s one you might not know. In Seattle, there are nearly 45% more dogs than children. In Salt Lake City, there are nearly 19% more kids than dogs.
This curious fact might at first seem trivial, but it reflects a much broader and little-noticed demographic trend that has deep implications for the future of global culture and politics. It’s not that people in a progressive city such as Seattle are so much fonder of dogs than are people in a conservative city such as Salt Lake City. It’s that progressives are so much less likely to have children.
It’s a pattern found throughout the world, and it augers a far more conservative future — one in which patriarchy and other traditional values make a comeback, if only by default. Childlessness and small families are increasingly the norm today among progressive secularists. As a consequence, an increasing share of all children born into the world are descended from a share of the population whose conservative values have led them to raise large families.
Today, fertility correlates strongly with a wide range of political, cultural and religious attitudes. In the USA, for example, 47% of people who attend church weekly say their ideal family size is three or more children. By contrast, 27% of those who seldom attend church want that many kids.
In Utah, where more than two-thirds of residents are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 92 children are born each year for every 1,000 women, the highest fertility rate in the nation. By contrast Vermont — the first to embrace gay unions — has the nation’s lowest rate, producing 51 children per 1,000 women.
Similarly, in Europe today, the people least likely to have children are those most likely to hold progressive views of the world. For instance, do you distrust the army and other institutions and are you prone to demonstrate against them? Then, according to polling data assembled by demographers Ron Lesthaeghe and Johan Surkyn, you are less likely to be married and have kids or ever to get married and have kids. Do you find soft drugs, homosexuality and euthanasia acceptable? Do you seldom, if ever, attend church? Europeans who answer affirmatively to such questions are far more likely to live alone or be in childless, cohabiting unions than are those who answer negatively.
This correlation between secularism, individualism and low fertility portends a vast change in modern societies. In the USA, for example, nearly 20% of women born in the late 1950s are reaching the end of their reproductive lives without having children. The greatly expanded childless segment of contemporary society, whose members are drawn disproportionately from the feminist and countercultural movements of the 1960s and ’70s, will leave no genetic legacy. Nor will their emotional or psychological influence on the next generation compare with that of people who did raise children.
Single-child factor
Meanwhile, single-child families are prone to extinction. A single child replaces one of his or her parents, but not both. Consequently, a segment of society in which single-child families are the norm will decline in population by at least 50% per generation and quite quickly disappear. In the USA, the 17.4% of baby boomer women who had one child account for a mere 9.2% of kids produced by their generation. But among children of the baby boom, nearly a quarter descend from the mere 10% of baby boomer women who had four or more kids.
This dynamic helps explain the gradual drift of American culture toward religious fundamentalism and social conservatism. Among states that voted for President Bush in 2004, the average fertility rate is more than 11% higher than the rate of states for Sen. John Kerry.
It might also help to explain the popular resistance among rank-and-file Europeans to such crown jewels of secular liberalism as the European Union. It turns out that Europeans who are most likely to identify themselves as “world citizens” are also less likely to have children.
Rewriting history?
Why couldn’t tomorrow’s Americans and Europeans, even if they are disproportionately raised in patriarchal, religiously minded households, turn out to be another generation of ’68? The key difference is that during the post-World War II era, nearly all segments of society married and had children. Some had more than others, but there was much more conformity in family size between the religious and the secular. Meanwhile, thanks mostly to improvements in social conditions, there is no longer much difference in survival rates for children born into large families and those who have few if any siblings.
Tomorrow’s children, therefore, unlike members of the postwar baby boom generation, will be for the most part descendants of a comparatively narrow and culturally conservative segment of society. To be sure, some members of the rising generation may reject their parents’ values, as often happens. But when they look for fellow secularists with whom to make common cause, they will find that most of their would-be fellow travelers were quite literally never born.
Many will celebrate these developments. Others will view them as the death of the Enlightenment. Either way, they will find themselves living through another great cycle of history.
Listen Jack…..I really DO NOT GIVE A RATS ASS about you and your opinions….LET IT GO….
If I raised the hairs on your neck, get over it…Mumia is in jail for the crime…whether he did it or not, and neither you nor I can change this fact…
As for your ideas that i am racist, you base it on what?….that you don’t like my opinions?….I stated a fact….that Philadelphia cops WERE BIAS against non-whites from the 1960s thru 1990s…PERIOD…
….and this is a fact you HAVE NOT DENIED…..
Listen, if it will make you feel better….you can go on and believe that Mumia did the deed….and i will continue to not care…..like i said before…he is in jail and if he doesn’t get executed, he’ll be in jail for life most likely…
So take a valium, or whatever drug you take to come down from your rage, STFU about this, and let it go…….because no one gives a f***! (except maybe…you!)
Israel has spent the last five months unleashing missiles, attack helicopters and jet fighters over the densely packed concrete hovels in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli army has made numerous deadly incursions, and some 500 people, nearly all civilians, have been killed and 1,600 more wounded. Israel has rounded up hundreds of Palestinians, destroyed Gaza’s infrastructure, including its electrical power system and key roads and bridges, carried out huge land confiscations, demolished homes and plunged families into a crisis that has caused widespread poverty and malnutrition.
Civil society itself—and this appears to be part of the Israeli plan—is unraveling. Hamas and Fatah factions battle in the streets, despite a tenuous cease-fire, threatening civil war. And the governing Palestinian movement, Hamas, has said it will boycott early elections called by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, done with the blessing of the West in a bid to toss Hamas out of power. (Remember that Hamas, despite its repugnant politics, was democratically elected.) In recent days armed groups loyal to Abbas have seized Hamas-run ministries in what looks like a coup.
The stark reality of Gaza, however, has failed to penetrate the consciousness of most Americans, who, when they notice the Israeli and Palestinian conflict, prefer to debate the merits of the word “apartheid” in former President Jimmy Carter’s new book, “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.” It is a sad commentary on the gutlessness of the U.S. press and the timidity of the Democratic opposition that most Americans are not aware of the catastrophic humanitarian crisis they bear so much responsibility in creating. Palestinians are not only dying, their olive trees uprooted, their farmland and homes destroyed and their aquifers taken away from them, but on many days they can’t move because of Israeli “closures” that make basic tasks, like buying food and going to the hospital, nearly impossible. These Palestinians, after decades of repression, cannot return to land from which they were expelled. The 140-plus U.N. votes to censure Israel and two Security Council resolutions—both vetoed by the United States—are blithly ignored. Is it any wonder that the Palestinians, gasping for air, rebel as the walls close in around them, as their children go hungry and as the Israelis turn up the violence?
Palestinians in Gaza live encased in a squalid, overcrowded ghetto, surrounded by the Israeli military and a massive electric fence, unable to leave or enter the strip and under daily assault. The word “apartheid,” given the wanton violence employed against the Palestinians, is tepid. This is more than apartheid. The concerted Israeli attempts to orchestrate a breakdown in law and order, to foster chaos and rampant deprivation, are on public display in the streets of Gaza City, where Palestinians walk past the rubble of the Palestinian Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of National Economy, the office of the Palestinian prime minister and a number of educational institutions that have been bombed by Israeli jets. The electricity generation plant, providing 45 percent of the electricity of the Gaza Strip, has been wiped out, and even the primitive electricity networks and transmitters that remain have been repeatedly bombed. Six bridges linking Gaza City with the central Gaza Strip have been blown up and main arteries cratered into obliteration. And the West Bank is rapidly descending into a crisis of Gaza proportions. The juxtaposition of what is happening in Gaza and what is being debated on the U.S. airwaves about a book that is little more than a basic primer on the conflict reinforces the impression most outside our gates have of Americans living in a distorted, bizarre reality of our own creation.
What do Israel and Washington believe they will gain by turning Gaza and the West Bank into a miniature version of Iraq? How do they think people who are desperate, deprived of hope, dignity and a way to make a living, under attack from one of the most technologically advanced armies on the planet, will respond? Do they believe that creating a Hobbesian nightmare for the Palestinians will blunt terrorism, curb suicide attacks and foster peace? Do they not see that the rest of the Middle East watches the slaughter in horror and rage—its angry, disenfranchised young men and women determined to overcome feelings of impotence and humiliation, even at the cost of their own lives?
And perhaps they do see and understand all this. Israel and Washington probably do get the recruiting value of this repression for Islamic militants. But these Israeli attacks, despite the rage and violence they breed against Israelis and against us, also create conditions so intolerable that Palestinians can no longer reside on their land. More than 160,000 civil servants have not received full salaries for almost nine months. These government employees support families that number more than a million Palestinians. And a United Nations report states that more than two-thirds of Palestinians are now living below the poverty line. The unemployment rate is more than 50 percent. The Palestinian Foreign Ministry says 10,000 Palestinians have emigrated in the last four months and almost 50,000 others have applied to leave.
Israel, with no restraints from Washington, despite the Iraq Study Group report recommendations that the peace process be resurrected from the dead, has been given the moral license by the Bush administration to carry out what is euphemistically in Israel called “transfer” and what in other parts of the world is called ethnic cleansing. Faced with a demographic time bomb, knowing that by 2020 Jews will make up only 40 to 46 percent of the overall population of Israel, the architects of transfer, who once held the equivalent status in Israeli society of the Ku Klux Klan, have wormed their way into positions of power in the Israeli government.
Washington and Israel, I suspect, know the cost of this repression. But it is beginning to appear as though they accept it—as the price for ridding themselves of the Palestinians.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has installed in his Cabinet a politician who openly calls for the expulsion of the some 1.3 million Israeli Arabs who live inside Israel. Avigdor Lieberman’s “Israel Is Our Home” Party, part of Olmert’s governing coalition, proposes involuntary transfer in a region populated mostly by Arab citizens of Israel, shifting those people to a future Palestinian state that would include Gaza, parts of the West Bank and a small slice of northern Israel. All Israeli Arabs who continued to reside in the territory of transfer would automatically lose their Israeli citizenship unless they took a loyalty oath to the state and its Jewish symbols. The inclusion of Lieberman, the David Duke of Israel, into the Cabinet is an indication to most Palestinians that the worst is yet to come.
The debate over Jimmy Carter’s book, one that dishes up a fair number of Israeli myths about itself and states a reality that is acknowledged even by most Israelis, misses the point. The question is not whether Israel practices apartheid. Apartheid is a fond dream for most Palestinians. The awful question is rather will Israel be able to unleash a policy so draconian and cruel that it will obliterate a community that has lived on this land for centuries. There are other, far more loaded words for what is happening to the Palestinians. One shudders to repeat them. But unchecked, unstopped, the current wave of violence and abuse meted out to the Palestinians will echo down the corridors of history as one of the greatest moral and tactical blunders of the early part of this century, one that will boomerang on Israel and on us, bringing to our own doorsteps the evil we have allowed to be delivered to the narrow alleys and refugee camps in Gaza. When it was only apartheid, we had some hope.

“White SA had a constant struggle to protect itself from illegal black migrants.”
louiecoolgato said
“Black South Africans paid a very high price for having been under the Aparteid regime”
and:
“As for your statement of ‘the highest standard of living’ for any black African population…..that is a matter of perception”
Hmm…So it is clear. The perception of the black illegal migrants must be that the higher standard of living of black SAs is preferable to the standard of living of the illegal-migrants-into-SA blacks in their home countries, elsewhere in Africa. They proved their preferences by leaving their home countries and voluntarily migrating into SA, in other words, voted with their feet.
The illegal black migrants into South Africa must agree that being a “Colonel Sanders” chicken beats being a “free chicken.”
Nice speech, there, louiecoolgato. Too bad the black migrants into SA think it’s all hooey.
Also,
louiecoolgato said:

Well, food, when the other option is starving to death, is worth a very high price, indeed.
Most Americans agree that race and sex discrimination are wrong and that a “level playing field” should be established. Indeed, it is often assumed that we would have true equality of opportunity in American if only these forms of discrimination were eliminated. This position is naïve, however, because it overlooks the effects of other nonmerit factors identified here (especially inheritance). Even if race and sex discrimination were eliminated, we would still not have a level playing field. This position also overlooks other forms of discrimination that, while less pervasive in America, nevertheless suppress or neutralize the effects of merit: discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, religion, age, physical disability (unrelated to job performance), physical appearance, and region (discrimination against Southerners and preference for Yankees). That these forms of discrimination effect fewer people than sex and race discrimination is little comfort to those who are victimized by it. For them, the effective rate of discrimination is 100 percent.
Some of these forms of discrimination are not well-recognized or generally acknowledged. “Lookism,” for instance, is a subtle form of discrimination in which attractive people get numerous nonmerit advantages over less attractive people (e.g., more attention, more help, more recognition and credit for accomplishments, more positive evaluation of performance and the like) (Etcoff 1999). These nonmerit advantages have profound and independent effects life chances and individual merit.
Excuse me ‘s’, but obviously you know nothing about south african history……I bet you’re one of those people who think that Africa is a country……and I bet that you don’t know the difference between Somolia and Batswanaa….(several thousand miles difference)…..
Read up on SOUTH AFRICA, not the continent of Africa (believe it or not, everyone IS NOT starving on the continent AND there are SEVERAL COUNTRIES on the continent, which are UNLIKE each other)….
when you’ve done sufficient reading, come back and tell us about the starving black people of the country of SOUTH AFRICA, OK?…..
Uh, “s”, You have NOT ADDRESSED THE APARTEID SYSTEM….your argument speaks of everything EXCEPT the system of government itself….you speak as if Aparteid is an ACCEPTABLE form of government….
And mind you, the very arguments you are making are based on the policies of an unjust and evil GOVERNMENT….you talk about illegal immigration, but you neglect to talk about the treatment of the people who live in South Africa LEGALLY but are treated as bad, if not worse, than the white minorities pets….
As for your obvious ‘plantation owner’ mentality (…The illegal black migrants into South Africa must agree that being a “Colonel Sanders” chicken beats being a “free chicken.”…), this statement is analogous to what white slave owners would say to justify slavery….”it’s better to have a slave master to tell you what to do than to let you live free and make your own choices…”
UNFORTUNATELY for your sorry argument ‘s’, those very chickens OVERTHREW Col. Sanders, and the country, contrary to racist beliefs, has NOT collapsed……
The only problem i find with this article is that it neglects the ‘immigrant’ factor…..America is an aging nation….meaning that in 40 years there will be a huge demographic above 65 years old….and just as this article points out, americans are NOT having as many babies as before….
What does this mean?…Well with fewer babies, comes fewer WORKING adults who would pay into Social Security like we are today (the money coming out of our paychecks IS NOT being stored for our later use in retirement…..it is paying for the retirements of the already retired)….So how can America keep its standard of living up?….the only way is to let in MORE IMMIGRANTS…….Japan is beginning to have this problem of too many elderly (draining the system)-too few youthful workers (giving into the system)….this problem, along with this HUGE deficit spending (which our children and our children’s children will have to pay for)….is going to put a unbelievable strain on American government…..
The ONLY WAY America has a chance to continue its way of life is by massive LEGAL IMMIGRATION ….either that, or our country will be split between the super haves’ and the super have nots’ (think France before the French Revolution)….
“starving black people of the country of SOUTH AFRICA, OK?”…..
Errrrrm. Try to keep up. The reason the blacks in SA were NOT starving is because they got to live in a white-run country with productive white farmers to feed them.
And apartheid being the price of food? As opposed to starving like their neighbors, quite a reasonable trade, if the incoming starving black illegals (FROM THEIR HOME COUNTRIES, as I said) risking death from necklacing by the black south Africans today in the townships is any indication.
The illegals coming in were obviously NOT South Africans, but citizens of neighboring countries. But because they did not have the benefit of living in a white run country with productive white farmers to feed them, they left their countries and illegally immigrated into SA in order to get something to eat, risking death in the process.
Yeah, I’m slightly aware that Africa is a continent with multiple tiny countries, the vast majority of whom, under black rule, are basket cases.
–Like, for instance, Zimbabwe under Mugabe. Google “Ian Smith was Right’ and discover that the average black Zimbabwean thinks things for him were better under Ian Smith.
Louie, isn’t also the case that Jews were a powerful force in the anti-apartheid movement? I’m not trying to score a point here. It is weird though isn’t it?
The apartheid system was the only way in which the legitimate white tribe of Africa could guarantee the continuation of its culture and way of life in peaceful coexistence with its former enemies. The destruction of that culture and the decimation of the White farmer is proof of the necessity of the apartheid system. The rampant crime, corruption and economic failure under the Xhosa ascendancy proves that Black people were not ready to participate in government.
louiecoolgato,
Apartheid IS an acceptable form of government if the alternative means chaos and death for the poor blacks you claim to sympathize with.
Go find out about Zimbabwe (nee Rhodesia.) Find out about life for poor blacks (now starving) in Zimbabwe. Find out that under white rule, white-run farms were so productive they not only fed their own blacks but much of the rest of Africa. Find out why Rhodesia was called the breadbasked of Africa.
With Mugabe now in charge, UN says more than half of Zimbabwe’s blacks will need food aid this year, and those food exports to the rest of Africa are no longer available.
“has NOT collapsed……”
Not yet, not completely. But Zimbabwe has shown the way. And it’s going downhill fast. Eskom, the power company, since Black Economic Empowerment, cannot both provide power to the cities and the gold / platinum mines, which SA’s economy is dependent on, at the same time, on a dependable basis. SA gold production is down 17% this month as compared to one year ago as a result.
Educated whites are emigrating from South Africa at astonishing rates.
“chickens OVERTHREW Col. Sanders.”
No. SA was the subject of heavy, heavy sanctions from the rest of the First World, due to short-sighted liberals demanding Apartheid end Right Now, and the white SAs voted to give over to black rule because of the sanctions pressures from OTHER First World countries.
During the unrest leading up to De Klerk handing over power to Mandela, many, many whites made the point that education needs to come first. That did not happen, as the blacks and liberals were too impatient. But a First World country cannot be maintained for long by illiterates.
“…farting in the presence of one of our dusky cousins is interpreted as a racist assault…..”
Uh, excuse me James, but farting in the presence of one of your ‘dusky cousins’ would NOT be interpreted as a RACIST assault, but rather, a DISGUSTING assault on our smelling senses….farts coming out of ANY person IS AN ASSAULT…
you may now resume your regularly scheduled remarks…..

Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. When the incoming immigrants are old, who will take care of them? Either they’ve overbred, exacerbating all the overpopulation problems, like crowding, not enough clean water, food, and excessive use and wearing-out of infrastructure or… even more immigrants, and the cycle begins anew.
Us Americans who were school age in the 70s were told “don’t breed! The world is overpopulated!” So we didn’t.
Now you are telling us we have to lose our country as a consequence?
What you say about Zimbabwe is true!!
Mugabe did more damage to blacks than former Rhodesian rulers .
For louie : Botswana not …. thanks

“I was born in 1953. Like the rest of my generation, I took the America I grew up in for granted – in fact, like many in my generation I railed against the very real injustices of our society, marched against the bombing of Cambodia, went door to door for liberal candidates. It’s only in retrospect that the political and economic environment of my youth stands revealed as a paradise lost, an exceptional episode in our nation’s history.”
That’s the opening paragraph of my new book, The Conscience of a Liberal. It’s a book about what has happened to the America I grew up in and why, a story that I argue revolves around the politics and economics of inequality.
I’ve given this New York Times blog the same name, because the politics and economics of inequality will, I expect, be central to many of the blog posts – although I also expect to be posting on a lot of other issues, from health care to high-speed Internet access, from productivity to poll analysis. Many of the posts will be supplements to my regular columns; I’ll be using this space to present the kind of information I can’t provide on the printed page – especially charts and tables, which are crucial to the way I think about most of the issues I write about.
In fact, let me start this blog off with a chart that’s central to how I think about the big picture, the underlying story of what’s really going on in this country. The chart shows the share of the richest 10 percent of the American population in total income – an indicator that closely tracks many other measures of economic inequality – over the past 90 years, as estimated by the economists Thomas Piketty and Emmanuel Saez. I’ve added labels indicating four key periods. These are:
The Long Gilded Age: Historians generally say that the Gilded Age gave way to the Progressive Era around 1900. In many important ways, though, the Gilded Age continued right through to the New Deal. As far as we can tell, income remained about as unequally distributed as it had been the late 19th century – or as it is today. Public policy did little to limit extremes of wealth and poverty, mainly because the political dominance of the elite remained intact; the politics of the era, in which working Americans were divided by racial, religious, and cultural issues, have recognizable parallels with modern politics.
The Great Compression: The middle-class society I grew up in didn’t evolve gradually or automatically. It was created, in a remarkably short period of time, by FDR and the New Deal. As the chart shows, income inequality declined drastically from the late 1930s to the mid 1940s, with the rich losing ground while working Americans saw unprecedented gains. Economic historians call what happened the Great Compression, and it’s a seminal episode in American history.
Middle class America: That’s the country I grew up in. It was a society without extremes of wealth or poverty, a society of broadly shared prosperity, partly because strong unions, a high minimum wage, and a progressive tax system helped limit inequality. It was also a society in which political bipartisanship meant something: in spite of all the turmoil of Vietnam and the civil rights movement, in spite of the sinister machinations of Nixon and his henchmen, it was an era in which Democrats and Republicans agreed on basic values and could cooperate across party lines.
The great divergence: Since the late 1970s the America I knew has unraveled. We’re no longer a middle-class society, in which the benefits of economic growth are widely shared: between 1979 and 2005 the real income of the median household rose only 13 percent, but the income of the richest 0.1% of Americans rose 296 percent.
Most people assume that this rise in inequality was the result of impersonal forces, like technological change and globalization. But the great reduction of inequality that created middle-class America between 1935 and 1945 was driven by political change; I believe that politics has also played an important role in rising inequality since the 1970s. It’s important to know that no other advanced economy has seen a comparable surge in inequality – even the rising inequality of Thatcherite Britain was a faint echo of trends here.
To be continued
On the political side, you might have expected rising inequality to produce a populist backlash. Instead, however, the era of rising inequality has also been the era of “movement conservatism,” the term both supporters and opponents use for the highly cohesive set of interlocking institutions that brought Ronald Reagan and Newt Gingrich to power, and reached its culmination, taking control of all three branches of the federal government, under George W. Bush. (Yes, Virginia, there is a vast right-wing conspiracy.)
Because of movement conservative political dominance, taxes on the rich have fallen, and the holes in the safety net have gotten bigger, even as inequality has soared. And the rise of movement conservatism is also at the heart of the bitter partisanship that characterizes politics today.
Why did this happen? Well, that’s a long story – in fact, I’ve written a whole book about it, and also about why I believe America is ready for a big change in direction.
For now, though, the important thing is to realize that the story of modern America is, in large part, the story of the fall and rise of inequality.

Ernst Zundel’s “Setting the Record Straight: Letters from Cell #7” had been seized and ruled as “hate propaganda.” I’ve filed the appeal which appears below. If I lose, these books shall be consigned to the fire by Canada’s modern day book burners.
Ernst Zundel has been in jail for almost four years without being charged with a violent crime or without even being convicted of a non-violent one. He is 67 years old.
who fucking cares.
Well said S! A small highly trained and well educated working population in a dynamic economy would have no problem in supporting a large retired population (many of whom have assets and savings anyway). It’s sweatshop economies, that are designed to concentrate obscene wealth in the hands of a tiny minority, that have problem with social welfare provision.
Interesting! Post a link to your blog. It’s a bit cheeky to post such long comments on someone else’s blog.
Whatever you think of Zundel’s opinions, the refusal of groups like Amnesty to protest his persecution proves that these organizations are pursuing political objectives.
See ‘s’, this is a MUCH better informative statement than before…and while i do not agree with most of your points, most notably:
“….Apartheid IS an acceptable form of government if the alternative means chaos and death for the poor blacks you claim to sympathize with….”
…I understand your points much better…..
Now let us get to the flaws of your argument:
#1:….your statement that Aparteid is an acceptable form of government is outright WRONG…..Democratic Governments are suppose to be of the people, by the people, and for the people, and Aparteid South African government claimed to be a democratic entity, but not in practice…….When you leave seven eights of a population from being involved in the government, EXCEPT for to SERVE the one eights minority, you have a form of governmental sanctioned peonage (I would not say ‘slavery’ because money was paid for the services…so little money that it equaled almost next to nothing in terms of living wages)….
#2)…comparing Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) to South Africa is comparing apples to oranges….Zimbabwe is led by a president (Mugabe) who, initially, was seen as a great person because of his leadership in overthrowing the white racist government before…..the problem NOW is NOT so much as black and white, but rather, a POWER STRUGGLE in which Mugabe is playing on race in order to keep power….He is a man who became intoxicated with power and has lost his way, thus the country is in the mess it’s in right now…..and to make it worse, the neighboring countries are NOT speaking up against his ‘dictatorship’ because of Mugabe’s past heroics…..I would call these countries (including South Africa’s present regime) a bunch of cowards because of their lack of moral fortitude….
Lack of moral fortitude is NOT the exclusive domain of blacks (just in case you want to go there)….it is a human condition and every country has been guilty of this in history…..
#3) your statement: “During the unrest leading up to De Klerk handing over power to Mandela, many, many whites made the point that education needs to come first. That did not happen, as the blacks and liberals were too impatient. But a First World country cannot be maintained for long by illiterates….”
…Because of Aparteid, there is a HUGE number of working class non-whites who were denied any kind of educational opportunities since 1948…..Now whites in SA hypocritically say that EDUCATION needs to come first???…..SA whites were using this as an end-around to stay in power because they knew that they were the educated……Also, it is an extremely difficult task (not to mention a very expensive task) to re-educate adults….in addition to changing a government based on race to even WANT to re-educate the majority population..
Aparteid created this country of ‘illiterate non-whites’, and now non-whites have to clean up this toxic mess that was created over 60 years….it won’t happen overnight….but it WILL eventually happen…
Hey Jarvis, this is easy for you to say…”Mugabe did more damage to blacks than former Rhodesian rulers ….”…..if you are looking at the situation based on RACE…..
I would counterpoint that Mugabe AND the Rhodesian government treated the Zimbabwens EQUALLY….with utter contempt and tyranny….
Out of the frying pan (Rhodesia), and into the fire (Mugabe’s leadership)…..which is the lesser of TWO EVILS….with emphasis on EVIL…..
nlcnstnts….I wish i was being paid for commenting, but unfortunately, I am not…….and i am glad that you have a dictionary to correct me on insignificant points such as spelling, while MISSING THE WHOLE POINT of my statement….
Is it because you are one of those tight assed people who never read, but instead, look at every word written so you can get some joy in your miserable, tight assed word counting life?…..
It is obvious by what you call yourself, WTF IS nicnstnts??…..yup, you definitely are a word counter…….get a life dumbass and leave the comments to others…..
You cannot lose if you play BOTH SIDES of the game James….
James, name me a country with a comparative population size as the US that has a dynamic economy based on what you are proposing….and that country is SUCCESSFUL……
If America goes towards ‘robotics’….then we may have a Luddite War……a huge majority of unemployed battling over fewer and fewer jobs…..all because of robotics taking over…..
This is a scary scenario….
“and now non-whites have to clean up this toxic mess that was created over 60 years….it won’t happen overnight….but it WILL eventually happen…”
I would argue that Black Economic Empowerment is resulting in lots and lots of jobs requiring education (like maintaining power plants) are foolishly being given to nonwhites without the necessary skills, and civilization in South Africa is now decaying rapidly. SA may not have TIME to educate enough replacements before the whole thing collapses back into general African hellholeness,, as the white “brain trust’ who would be needed to teach the skills, is leaving.
As far as it happening eventually, when can we expect this marvelous trend change? Because the trend in SA is currently DOWN. I’ve made a nice chunk of change shorting SA gold stocks.
Mugabe is a thug. Evidence is mounting Zuma is a thug. He was tried for rape. Found not guilty, but the woman still insists it happened.
I’d love to go long SA gold stocks, as I believe that the trend (Obama only accelerates it) is down in America too, and gold will go up. However, the fundamentals in SA are not good, so I don’t.
I’m done. James is correct about long posts being cheeky.
what about concerts to end poverty? Those always work
The problem with Christian Lander is that he is so convinced — by mocking the vanities of a tiny sub-subculture — that he is funny that he doesn’t realize how insensitive he is. He does not even begin to understand how troubling it is to most blacks to see the phrase “political prisoner” juxtaposed with Lander’s brand of bland anthropological humor.
In any society, most cases of wrongful incarceration are political cases. Whenever the State fails to provide quality legal-aid to indigent defendants, whenever a police force privileges a high conviction rate — perhaps to calm the insecurities of the wealthy within its jurisdiction — over accurate convictions, whenever the harshness of a sentence is proportional to the powerlessness of the accused, the root cause of the specific miscarriage of justice is political. Many black men recognize this. Thus, to many black people, it isn’t only Nelson Mandela or Aung San Suu Kyi who are political prisoners. For black folks, the ranks of political prisoners include brothers, fathers, and friends.
I have surmised earlier (responding to #108) that Christian Lander is crypto-racist. That is probably too strong. More likely, he simply doesn’t get it. He is so pleased with himself for puncturing the harmless vanities of a certain type of effete white person — occasionally exposing, I’ll grant it to him, the condescension of said whites towards black folks — that he just does not care how frustrating post #117 is to many, many black people.
Crypto-racist or not, Lander is certainly an unwitting tool of those on the American right. The faddish, mostly harmless, somewhat eunuchoid young white men that Christian Lander makes fun of are young men who consider themselves liberal. His vaguely anthropological asides enable opinion-makers to slap the aforesaid attributes upon the entire American liberal spectrum. In trying to take aim at “whites” — which Lander deliberately defines in a way as to make them soft targets — he joins a rhetorical tradition that has included some of the severest oppressors of black folks. When will Lander direct some of his famous satire at the hard targets ?
The white people who
“…would love to be locked up for their beliefs provided that they could go to a jail with private toilets, plenty of books and no rape.”
definitely deserve some lampooning. But, at least, these befuddled whites aren’t harming anyone. And, at least, they are dimly aware that America’s prisons hold political prisoners. When will Christian Lander direct his famous satire at the hard targets –when will he write a piece on “Stuff White DA’s and Assistant-DA’s Like to Believe In” ?
Christian Lander says:
“This is because political prisoners do not exist until a famous white person has drawn attention to them.”
This is utterly not true. The situation that I described earlier — that for many black people, political prisoners include their fathers, brothers, and friends — is a situation that is now beginning to be shared by white people; but these are not famous white people. They are earnest, assiduous — definitely not befuddled or effete — white people with
“…the belief that one day their law degree, graphic design skill…can be used to free a political prisoner.”
These are white (and black, and brown) people who HAVE effectively used their expensive law degrees and graphic design skills to establish the innocence and to free hundreds of political prisoners from America’s prisons! These are the folks who better represent the American liberal coalition. The fact that Christian Lander A) assists in portraying this coalition as a bunch of bumbling hemp-aficionados; and B) hence fails to speak the truth to power, makes him less funny than he could be.
For black folks, the ranks of political prisoners include brothers, fathers, and friends.
Oh save it, since the “Appeasement of the Negro”, aka known as the Civil Rights Act in 1964 the BLACKS FREE TO ROAM AMONGST US have murdered over 50,000 innocent Whites, raped over a million White women, and robbed and assaulted tens of millions more. When it comes to “race” that’s what people should be focusing on.
There is genocide being committed against Whites in the former Rhodesia.
Good post , serious points , French sociologist Loic D Wacquant (Berkley) who made his field work in ablack community in Chicago made agood study of how putting many young black men in prison avoids solving the problem of low-paid jobs and lack of opportunuties to earn one’s living.
Google it, he even took lessons in boxing in order to get easy access to some folks in the community (chicago).
Lander wants money and fame not EYES WIDE OPEN !!!
Lielaoo
I thought the U.S government recognized that the majority of people on welfare are white. In the Ozarks; one of the pooriest areas in the United States with nearly no running water or electrical lines. (The gettos of anykind look good about now) White people live there with barely any food to eat, no medical or finacial benefits help of any kind for what ever reason they don’t qualify???? This saddens me not only that we have poor white people but for people of any race, nationality in the U.S that are living in these conditions. It upsets me that 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc… generations that have lived in the United States of America and have but in thier blood sweat and tears can not get help. But if you come to this country right off the plane, boat blah blah blah you qualify for loans as little as 1-0% to buy a home, start a business, go to school, qualify for grants of anykind etc… In college my friend had a part time job working in a 411 office (information for local numbers) and she would tell me just about everyday she would get calls from people in many different accents asking for the phone number to get free money (welfare, social security….) I think our government has thier priorities wrong. And before you send me nasty emails; don’t get me wrong I don’t mind helping people from other countries; I too have contribute to many programs through out the world to help better other peoples living conditions but my first concern is helping out my fellow country men which I do. (it doesn’t matter what nationality) And no I don’t think that only white people want to help out the poor.
This entry obviously opens up a whole can of political worms. Much more serious topic than the other entries.

Being the idealistic white girl that i am, i would have assumed that this blog site was, at its core, satirical and meant to make light of stereotypes….at best for the pure reason of eliminating stereotypes all together, so that people can better see each other for the human beings we all are within this physical shell. (Maybe my less-than-privileged upbringing is responsible for instilling in me this inherent belief that people really do want to be goodhearted; after all it is in the slums, ghettos, and, yes, trailer parks, where I have witnessed the strongest loyalty, most selfless compassion, and fiercest protection for others; in the more cushioned lifestyles these traits are less often seen, and that goes for any race.) But you brought quality of this entire site down with this one blog. You actually do your own people a disservice too, lumping them into a category that is outdated and no longer existent. No one race in America is exclusive to low income society, and in fact, this generation has seen a phenomenal success rate amongst black people who have surged forward with ambition after the 1950s civil rights movement opened previously closed doors of opportunity to them. We are all the makers of our own destinies. Just as I have chosen to rise above the lifestyle of the trailer park I grew up in, I have family there that remains in the same state due to apathy. Do not blame white america for the misfortune of all other races except the white race. Blame individuals who spread this pattern of thinking exhibited here in this blogsite, a thinking that does nothing for making a difference in the state of situations you write about from your computer at home, with little real knowledge of what goes on in the real world- otherwise you wouldn’t be wasting your time talking needless shit on the PC. Don’t you have a job rich boy? Or you livin off someone else’s hardwork?
who is teddy afro , for Christ sake ?
“How many whites have murdered innocent whites? How many whites have raped whites? How many whites have robbed and assaulted whites?
You ignorant vagina.
”
How many blacks have enslaved blacks?
Blacks and liberals blame all whites for the crimes of some whites, living and dead. Why not blame blacks for violent crime that goes on today?
OK, you caught me. I’m white and I like political prisoners. Can you post a top ten list? It’s hard to be trendy and self absorbed without the right sources.
Thanks
I love how serious everyone takes your excellent satire!
So it’s not okay to write satirically about stereotypes like race and prison, but it’s just fine to openly insult women by trying to use “vagina” as an insult?
Hypocrite.
I think I love you.
Yes and no; Champion. “No,” because I (and several black and brown people I know), at any rate, am not offended. Hence my use of the word “troubling” and the avoidance of the word “offensive.” Speaking for myself: my comment was a deliberate act of writing something deadpan, and of throwing out some thoughts not generally seen in the commenting-on-Christian-Lander-posts demographic.
“Why bother,” you might ask. Well… I just finished scanning the galley-proofs of a recent project, and thus have a chunk of time on my hands.
As for “Yes,” it’s easy to agree with you. Given Christian Lander’s narrow, whimsical definition of “white”, there are lots of white-complexioned “non-white people” who like being offended. E.g., the “non-white people” who get offended when reminded of the constitutional principle of the separation of Church and State.
Dear Booty,
Sorry that I cannot oblige, much as I would’ve liked to! I fear what might happen if I’m caught possessing even a little of the stuff. As for your question: it’s very perceptive of you catch on that I am an alien (really!). Sadly, it’s hard to spell out the name of my home planet.
Note to self: NEVER invite this guy to a party.
It’s like inviting a bee to a picnic. Everyone scatters to avoid the painful sting of an excruciatingly boring conversation.
Lighten up, Francis.
Thank you for the tip, Selma Blair. As I said above, I have a chunk of free time coming up. I will try to read what I can.

Oh my goodness. All of you continue to post the same boring diatribes. You all (with some exceptions of course) do nothing but whine all day. You wake up at 8 in the morning, don’t even shower, and hop on the internet. Then you type your little Republican fingers away about things you hate. Meanwhile, I’m actually involved in the world. I host charity events for various purposes and I run awareness campaigns. If you all like ranting so much please put your monotony to use in society.
Or just put a dick in your yap hole because an orgasm would be useful to at least somebody.

You make a valid point but one might say that the secularist families that have fewer kids will be able to provide more resources per child. Thus giving their children greater advantages and oppurtunities to become in a position of power.

Television spectators will soon have got to look elsewhere for their weekly dose of phantasy and fiction owed to the Writers Club of United States strike. According to an article on TVguide.com, most shows have got 3-5 new episodes to air out before they hit re-runs, and some shows, like NBC’s The Office, are done dissemination new shows after this week. Shows that were supposed to begin in January, like 24 and Lost, may not air any new episodes during this television season.
Have no fear, though. An amusement medium that have been around longer than telecasting is here to salvage the twenty-four hours – amusing books. While the general populace may still see amusing books to be for kids, (there are still plenty of children comedians being published), the huge bulk of comedians today are written for adults. Most of the mainstream comedian books published in the United States have got contented similar to a primetime telecasting show. Readers will happen action, drama, politics, romance, phantasy and more than in the pages of today’s comics.
Many television viewing audience may be surprised to happen out that authors from some of their favourite shows are amusing book writers. Jeph Jacques Loeb is a Co-Executive Manufacturer on Heroes and was formerly a producer/writer on Smallville and Lost. Jacques Loeb have been authorship comedian books for over 15 years, and have written nearly every major superhero fictional character in comics, many in coaction with creative person Tim Sale, who supplies the amusing graphics seen in Heroes.
Brian K. Vaughn is a author for Lost, and have created two very popular amusing book series that are still going strong: Runaways for Wonder Comics and Y: The Last Man for Dizziness Comics.
Allan Heinberg is a writer/producer on Grey’s Anatomy, and have worked on Party of Five, Sex in the City, Gilmore Girls, and the OC. He have written Young Avengers for Wonder Comics and Wonder Woman for District of Columbia Comics.
Marc Solomon Guggenheim is a veteran soldier television author for shows like The Practice, Law and Order, and Brothers and Sisters. He is currently writing the popular X-Man, Wolverine, for Wonder Comics.
The listing of television authors who have got also written, or are writing, amusing books travels on and on.
Not only are there some top notch authors from all mediums writing amusing books, but there are also television shows with continuing narratives in comics. Joss Whedon, the writer/creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Firefly is continuing all three of those television series in amusing book form. In fact, “Buffy: Season Eight,” is 1 of the best-selling amusing books out today.
The Heroes graphical novel have just been released by District of Columbia Comics and incorporates all of the web-comics that ran during season one on NBC.com. This is all new stuff that most fans have got never seen nor read.
Battlestar Galactica, arguably the best scientific discipline fiction show on television, goes on in amusing book formatting every month.

Attitude is Everything
Whoever said that “Attitude is everything” must have got been joking right? What make they intend “attitude is everything”? Bash not they see that life have its restrictions and there are only certain things you can make according to the laws of nature? You may have got got heard this sort of talking before or thought it to yourself and then you might have brushed off that old expression “Attitude is everything” and figured it was just something that people like to say. This, unfortunately, was a spot of a mistake. If you had looked a small further, you might have got got discovered that mental attitude is, indeed, everything and the expression have a batch more powerfulness than you might have first recognized.
It is commonly known, according to many great Negro spiritual teachings, that the powerfulness of the head is actually infinite. It is certainly the lawsuit that there are restrictions in footing of the clip and space. It may take you a piece to make something or the jobs you may confront could look insurmountable in footing of the restrictions of your problems. Still, the possible that your head is capable of reaching is indeed infinite and this have got been proven over and over throughout the history of mankind.
Attitude is indeed everything because the manner you look at something actually impacts the manner it looks and ultimately alterations that thing into something else after you have looked at it. Great men of science like Prince Albert Albert Einstein and Werner Werner Karl Heisenberg have got proven this fact through astonishing scientific experimentations that show how the perceiver of an physical physical object actually impacts the manner an object acts in clip and space. They have got proven that our heads are intimately connected to the human race around us and actually impact things in a very existent way. We see this return topographic point in even the simplest of things each day.
If you look at the whole human race as a awful topographic point full of warfare and dearth and disease and death, then the human race goes this exact thing for you and you will undergo hurting and wretchedness everywhere you go. If you look at the human race as a great school where immortal psyches go through through and take advantage of all the fantastic chances to turn and germinate themselves to go even greater than when they first started, then the human race will look a fantastic topographic point full of chances and blessed challenges for you to take advantage of. Everything you see around you will change so that even the worst calamity could be seen as something beautiful and like a completely different event than what another individual might see. The full scene is based in your mental mental mental attitude and therefore, attitude goes everything.
When you see these thoughts from the position of just one lifetime, you can then conceive of what 1000 lives might do for a individual who make up one’s minds to work on their attitude and make it better and better each year. Their mental attitude could turn to such as potentiality that it could transform, not only the human race in presence of them, but other human races and galaxies far, far away. Their head could attain to the stars and transform the celestial sphere and the full existence so that it might spread out to something larger and better than it had ever been before. Then such as a thing as an mental attitude could indeed be said to be “Everything”.
As you can see, the expression “Attitude is everything” may not be just a simple small expression as you might have got first thought. It may be that there is infinite potentiality in the powerfulness of your head and that someday you will attain to the stars and alteration things in ways that you never thought possible. You, yourself may go the “Everything” that you always dreamed you could be. It all starts with a simple determination to change your mental attitude and start to better yourself in the ways that you have got always known you could do. The first measure to a alteration of mental attitude gets right now and may eventually be something that endures an eternity.
“Meanwhile, I’m actually involved in the world. I host charity events for various purposes and I run awareness campaigns. ”
I’m liking how your critique of other people irrelevantly transformed into The Tale of What A Wonderful Person I Am.
All those Scottish rappers on the “Down Low.”
Catch that Scottish brogue when talking to the brothers?
And, of course, the advanced practice of grabbing ones’ genitals, an age old Scot’s method of intra-sexual communication.
William Wallace did it just before he was drawn and quartered.
The crowd loved it.
aw shut up ya queer
“I’m actually involved in the world. I host charity events for various purposes and I run awareness campaigns”
I’m humbled by your suffering. How much wine and canapes do you have to wade through to help these poor starving Africans?
Awareness=liberal elite propaganda.
Hate Speech=Facts that contradict liberal elite propaganda.
“Low paid jobs” are only a problem for people who are too institutionally lazy and stupid to avoid ending up in one. Black people go to jail for the same reason that anyone else goes to jail. They go to jail when they commit crime. Are you suggesting that a Black rapist is in prison because it’s a convenient solution to “lack of opportunities” and a white rapist is in prison because he did something very bad? Wacquant’s fantasy is deeply insulting to the thousands of Black people who live in poverty who don’t become criminals.
I know, he is infact a criminal, but white people dont really like “facts”…they like the idea of facts…
Haha; oh that’s just funny, I love irony.
“White people” is a misnomer. I’m sure you know he’s really referring to white upper-class liberals, not White people in general.
Yeah I am a wonderful person. LOL only someone who felt guilty about their indolence would say something like that. Don’t worry, we can’t all be leaders.
What is with all these long winded assholes? If I wanted to read a book, I would read a book.
They call it getin even.
At the bottom of everything, the Guilty White Male fear confronting the fact that rednecks mostly exist in a social class BENEATH him. Hipness is a luxury. Being trash isn’t. Even by using the rules of liberalism–victims are saints–the redneck beats the white liberal.
–Jim Goad
_The Redneck Manifesto_ (1997)
p.246
Ideologically, the Guilty White Male is down with the program; materially, he’s still a filthy-rich imperialist Yankee hyena. His “shame of being white” is more a sort of cutesy atavistic role-playing than anything tangible. He’ll write bighearted articles about the homeless, but he won’t offer his spare bedroom. He’s tortured with guilt about hi relative leisure and affluence compared to most indigenous peoples worldwide, yet he’s not quick to pawn his cozy condo and Pentium chip in order to air-drop corn meal to the starving Pakistani peasantry. He’s outraged about the oppression of blacks, but he isn’t moving into the black slums, at least not this year. He feels terrible that the land was stolen from the Indians, but it doesn’t appear he’s giving it back anytime soon.
Buckaroo, your point ?
It’s okay to be poor if you are not white. If you are white you must have done something wrong/are lazy/are stupid/all of the above. I have been navigating the social service industry both public and private for awhile now because I have a disabled child. I have learned to fear social workers who are hired for their “second language” but equally as bad are fellow white americans. ESL social workers are on a mission to help their own kind only and kick whitey’s ass; white social workers are on a mission to help the poor-little-others and kick whitey’s ass. If one is white one could not request a white social worker or an english first language social worker. But you’d likely be sorry you did anyway. I hope for black social workers who sometimes show compassion.
I used to live in a really liberal town where people love to demonstrate about civil and human rights violations across the seas, or for the terror suspects down in Gitmo. But as for helping the poor or resolving human rights issues right in their home town or state, hell no, absolutely not! And the talk about the poor and how to help them, why they are poor, was never ending. But would they talk to us poor people about it at all? NO! They talk about us, study us, pity us, but they certainly won’t brush shoulders with us po’r folk, let alone talk to us. Hysterical.
“Actually, statistically, the poor still vote Democratic, and the rich still vote Republican:
http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/10/22/income-and-voting/”
Yup. This blog can’t get that. Interesting, ain’t it?
Wouldn’t it be cool if we did abolish capital and seize the means to produce utopia? Fuck all that voting and green-consumer nonsense, why not we depose of politicians and the rich and take all their shit?
I feel like some white people also like this. Perhaps I’m wrong but I don’t buy the argument of Race Traitor Journal totally. Even if the construct of race prevents authentic communication between folks, it cannot change the reality of shared material and existential conditions. Can poor whites get organized into gangs, recognize their folly (voting, activism and such) and locate the real avenues for communication through their own self-interests and acting in more sensible ways? Burning cars perhaps.
Did you ever think that we can not help what color we are when we are born? Nor can we choose to be born with or without a silver spoon in our mouth. Only the good man upstairs can determine these things.
Instead of having poor parents who could barely feed seven children, it would have been nice to be able to have a good hot meal at least once a day growing up, instead of cold corn meal mush and a hard biscuit! I had no choice but to shop at Wal-Mart. If they have little kids making the things I buy from Wal Mart, then I “salute” those little ones.
When I was growing up, I had to “peel popple” with my father in the woods of upper Michigan, when I was eight years old. My nine year old sister and I worked from sun up to sundown and we had blisters upon blisters on our tiny, little hands and huge, bloody gashes in our shin bones when the peeling irons would slip. That didn’t seem to bother anyone back then!
I’ll bet most of you don’t have a clue what it means to “peel popple” or pick cherries during the season in Traverse City, Michigan. We never heard the words, Healthcare, what was that? We also didn’t have a Wal-mart just a little General Store that we went to once a month to buy mush and flour. Anyway, I Love Wal-mart.
When I listen to the debaters, I don’t think they even have a real clue as to what poor really means, or what people without healthcare go through.
They all need to visit the little towns in and around the big cities and they will see what it’s like to be a farmer, teacher, waitress, soldiers etc…these are the POOR white people, struggling daily just to survive. What do you call the soldiers that are defending our country?Most of them are poor! At least the lower ranking men anyway!
Most of them are undereducated, underpaid and most definately Overworked! Overstressed and Underappreciated, but they have a “code of honor” that sets them above all others, they are a “Brotherhood” and if you have a chance to join this wonderful entity that gives us our freedom, you will change your mind about poor white people or poor black people or just poor me!!!Try walking in the boots of a soldier!!
Oh and by the way, I know all about being a minority and being white at the same time. My hubby was in the Army for 22 and 1/2 years and when we were stationed in Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, in 1972 to1975 (land of the hula girls and flowered shirts) Honolulu, puka shells and monkey pod. This island Paradise was not what you would think looking at the post cards! For some it was NOT fun to be white!
My little girl went to school at Wheeler AFB across from our housing area and she came home crying from school when the kids called her “old howlie” because of her beautiful, blonde hair and fair skin. Out of 35 students they had two white children and my daughter was one of them. The rest were Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Black and Hispanic etc.
I went to visit her teacher at the school and she was a beautiful, Japanese girl. The little Japanese teacher sent us out side of the class room and decided to have a talk about “white” and “predjudice” and she told her class that someday they would be the “minority”. I really don’t like any of those words, because they hurt someone I love very much and it still makes me kind of angry when someone says the words so that is the reason I am responding to these comments. The teacher did straighten out the other litltle ones and from that day the racial problems were over.
Being the spouse of a soldier, there was no colors or races or differences in his people. My hubby called them “HIS men”! They were the parents of the little ones that were calling my daughter the bad names!
My hubby carried some of his wounded men through the rice paddies of Viet Nam and he didn’t know a difference in color then either, until a huge black man ran up onto the podium where he was teaching a class in Texas, and threw his arms around his neck crying in front of everyone.
He said, ” You don’t know me do you Sarge?” my honey said, “No”. He said,” Sarge, you saved my ass in Nam when I took all that schrapnel in my back!” Then my honey recognized him. (This was the guy laying down next to him in the rice paddies when they got hit with a bunch of schrapnel all up and down his back, that he carried back to their lines).
My hubby said, “Yeah! Man now I know who you are, You SAVED my ass, if you had not been there to catch that schrapnel in your back, it would have got me”! My hubby threw him over his shoulder and carried his bloody body all the way back to their lines, and at the same time he dragged a little Italian guy with them who had gotten schrapnel in his foot!
To make a long story short! I read this whole thing and I still don’t know what this has to do with anything. I guess I don’t have to tell any of you who we are voting for in this election.
Mr. McCain is one of my hubbys brothers so there isn’t any more to say on this matter! You just don’t have the right attitude about what “White” means. Being white is not just the color of your skin, it’s about being “right”. If you are Right then the color of your skin does not matter. We are all the same and our blood is all RED! That’s why they call us “Red Blooded Americans”! I have some wonderful nephews that have an American father and a beautiful, Puerto Rican mother and I call them Amer-Ricans! This is what makes our country GREAT!
Thanks for letting me VENT!
But the reason I dig this blog is because talking about white people is the last social frontier. It’s been cool to discuss every culture and race throughout history in the context of white westerners being the “norm”. The author of this blog, as sarcastic as he or she may be, black, white, or Asian, has through their wit, humor, and observation brought to the stage a dialog about the most overlooked aspect of western culture – white people. And it challenges the assumption that white people and western culture are the same thing. And whether you appreciate it or not this blog is funny as hell.
The trend in anthropology over the past four decades has been to validate non-European cultures and to portray aspects of their culture as being superior to European/White culture. This romantic primitivist critique is an ongoing attack on the integrity and greatness of white civilisation. If Lander were subjecting white people to the same positive analysis that Dee Brown has subjected Red Indian culture to, you could argue that Lander was simply extending this process to white culture, but Lander is subjecting white culture to derisive and slightly sneering critique, so he isn’t. The blog can be funny. Racist humour can be funny, we all know that. So what!
Looking at the dogs, farmer’s market produce, a person walking by the ocean and sushi, made me realize that all of this is lovely. I see no reason to trash beauty and aesthetics.
The ocean is there for everyone to look at if you happen to be in a city on an ocean or small town. Dogs are all over the place just showing love to humans. And I believe non-white people consume more sushi daily than white people do. Just go to Japan and see!
Books, last time I checked, are free at your local library. There is no excuse for a lack of education, whether you read for yourself or go to school the old fashioned way.
Being aesthetically inclined and loving beautiful photos is not a white thing, it is about a renaissance of the human spirit. Those who degrade the love of beauty or say that reading books from the libarary is a “white only” thing are really depriving themselves of advancement.
It’s a sad story that we have too many excuses for not achieving and doing in the U.S., when so many people around the world really want to come here.
There is one group no one has recognized, and it is the group that will decide the election: the Angry White Man. The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard.
His common traits are that he isn’t looking for anything from anyone — just the promise to be able to make his own way on a level playing field. In many cases, he is an independent businessman and employs several people. He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard.
The victimhood syndrome buzzwords — “disenfranchised,” “marginalized” and “voiceless” — don’t resonate with him. “Press ‘one’ for English” is a curse-word to him. He’s used to picking up the tab, whether it’s the company Christmas party, three sets of braces, three college educations or a beautiful wedding.
He believes the Constitution is to be interpreted literally, not as a “living document” open to the whims and vagaries of a panel of judges who have never worked an honest day in their lives.
The Angry White Man owns firearms, and he’s willing to pick up a gun to defend his home and his country. He is willing to lay down his life to defend the freedom and safety of others, and the thought of killing someone who needs killing really doesn’t bother him.
The Angry White Man is not a metrosexual, a homosexual or a victim. Nobody like him drowned in Hurricane Katrina — he got his people together and got the hell out, then went back in to rescue those too helpless and stupid to help themselves, often as a police officer, a National Guard soldier or a volunteer firefighter.
His last name and religion don’t matter. His background might be Italian, English, Polish, German, Slavic, Irish, or Russian, and he might have Cherokee, Mexican, or Puerto Rican mixed in, but he considers himself a white American.
He’s a man’s man, the kind of guy who likes to play poker, watch football, hunt white-tailed deer, call turkeys, play golf, spend a few bucks at a strip club once in a blue moon, change his own oil and build things. He coaches baseball, soccer and football teams and doesn’t ask for a penny. He’s the kind of guy who can put an addition on his house with a couple of friends, drill an oil well, weld a new bumper for his truck, design a factory and publish books. He can fill a train with 100,000 tons of coal and get it to the power plant on time so that you keep the lights on and never know what it took to flip that light switch.
Women either love him or hate him, but they know he’s a man, not a dishrag. If they’re looking for someone to walk all over, they’ve got the wrong guy. He stands up straight, opens doors for women and says “Yes, sir” and “No, ma’am.”
He might be a Republican and he might be a Democrat; he might be a Libertarian or a Green. He knows that his wife is more emotional than rational, and he guides the family in a rational manner.
He’s not a racist, but he is annoyed and disappointed when people of certain backgrounds exhibit behavior that typifies the worst stereotypes of their race. He’s willing to give everybody a fair chance if they work hard, play by the rules and learn English.
Most important, the Angry White Man is pissed off. When his job site becomes flooded with illegal workers who don’t pay taxes and his wages drop like a stone, he gets righteously angry. When his job gets shipped overseas, and he has to speak to some incomprehensible idiot in India for tech support, he simmers. When Al Sharpton comes on TV, leading some rally for reparations for slavery or some such nonsense, he bites his tongue and he remembers. When a child gets charged with carrying a concealed weapon for mistakenly bringing a penknife to school, he takes note of who the local idiots are in education and law enforcement.
He also votes, and the Angry White Man loathes Hillary Clinton. Her voice reminds him of a shovel scraping a rock. He recoils at the mere sight of her on television. Her very image disgusts him, and he cannot fathom why anyone would want her as their leader. It’s not that she is a woman. It’s that she is who she is. It’s the liberal victim groups she panders to, the “poor me” attitude that she represents, her inability to give a straight answer to an honest question, his tax dollars that she wants to give to people who refuse to do anything for themselves.
Through your language, it’s hard to establish if you’re actually saying you think he or his comments are racist. Are you?
“‘Low paid jobs’ are only a problem for people who are too institutionally laze and stupid to avoid ending up in one.”
Your credibility has been dropping man, but that killed it. Thanks for playing, it’s been a real treat pretending you knew what the hell you were talking about.
this post was interesting.
it had POTENTIAL in criticizing white liberal activism and racist
illegitimacy in assuming the role of “SAVIOR” in other
communities.
instead of appropriately interrogating the socio-economic
privilege this sort of activism operates from,
this post just affirms a political stance in meritocracy and a
MIDDLE CLASS, self-righteous critique in which the poor are
BLAMED for their own misfortune.
You ignore the reality of those who are
offered hiearchical access to education, health care, and
employment. You make it sound as if the world is completely
equal, does not run on a RACIST hierarchy, and the poor have
no one but THEMSELVES to blame for tiny wages, expensive
rent, and minute resources.
you act as if the poor ENJOY having horrible, unrespected jobs, living from paycheck to paycheck, being unable to afford nice things for their children and themselves, and being looked DOWN upon by others.
please read some Richard Dyer ( the matter of whiteness)
Judy Helfand (understanding whiteness),
David Spurr ( Under Western Eyes) and bell hooks.
I have to say that the blog is composed by an Asian male. I say this as an Asian male who went to a very small liberal arts school in the middle of a very flat midwest state and majored in International Relations, and didn’t take a single hard-science or math class after junior year of high school.
What I disagree with is that this blog is, as he puts it, “seething with resentment”. 90% of what gets made fun of here are dead on traits of hipsters (usually white, and I do live in New York), or traits they care to show to the world at large and to their friends, such as myself. The white people who lived in the said flat, midwest state I went to school in, have about 3% in common with the “white person” being described here. In fact, they’ll probably say the exact same things as this blog is saying about this “white person” if they spent any sizable amount of time living in Williamsburg.
Anyway, Tom’s analysis is pretty much correct, but I think he imputes too much anger and jealousy as a motivation for this blogger. I would write exactly the same thing as this person, if I had the time or the inclination to write this page, and I actually like Japan (lived there for a semester! which I guess make me honorary white), have an Arts degree (Political Science; again, honorary white status) and divorce (my parents are separated; damn, guess I’m white after all). This thing is hilarious mostly because I think the observations are usually dead on, and having passed it around to all of my white friends in New York City (who are young urban professionals), and having them admit that this describes them 75% or better, I see this as irreverential humor at worst. I mean, after all people, aren’t we supposed to be living in a post-racial society?

don’t you dare call me a racist!!!?????????????????????????
Great post…nothing beats moral tourism…we get to keep our hands clean while pretending to be not so self absorbed.
If us white folk are too concerned with the political opinions and concerns of poor folk, I guess we should just turn our attention to what we have always done — making money, exploiting labor, imperializing other continents, and generally acting like the privileged aristocrats we were meant to be?
Although I can appreciate the irony of this website, sometimes there is nothing wrong with a little white guilt to keep oneself in check and understand the struggles others undergo. Furthermore, it is entirely plausible, especially at lower educational levels, that some groups do not understand their own political self-interest, be they white, black, poor, etc.
You are not a racist.
You are misinformed and self approved.
Not so clever. Definitely not funny.
No I don’t.
The author is white joking about white people. Hardly the same as any comment you made here.
TWKOWP and authentically so, how fascinating
Classy
As you can read from some of these posts ‘wham’, we are FAR from living in a post-racial society…….but we are closer than we were before November 4th…..
Unfortunately monolingual, you have just exposed America’s dirty little secret…..It HATES poor white people!…..and the one’s who hate poor white people the most?….White people who work for the government and most white people who consider themselves middle class and above…
Of all the people most white Americans show contempt for, POOR WHITE AMERICANS are shown the most contempt ……White America HATES poor white americans…..why?….because there is this belief (based on racism) that NO white person in america should ever be poor because america is a WHITE MAN’S land….the laws, the opportunities for education, just about everything….is aimed at giving the white person the advantage over the non-white person….that is what America was initially built on……..SOO….when a POOR white person comes around, all the other whites immediately think exactly what you stated:….”If you are [poor & white] you must have done something wrong/are lazy/are stupid/all of the above.”
There is NO SLACK for the poor white in America…..
Racism- a doctrine or teaching, without scientific support, that claims to find racial differences in character, intelligence, etc., that asserts the superiority of one race over another, and that seeks to maintain the supposed purity of a race
As you can see from the definition of racism, being in ‘the so-called superior race’ has its disadvantages….especially if you are victimized by circumstances that you had no control over…
…poor whites do not get the benefit of the doubt when they are viewed as disadvantaged…..
In America, as you accurately stated, “It’s okay to be poor if you are not white”….because whites EXPECT non-whites to be poor……and according to white american beliefs, you have NO EXCUSE to be poor if you live in America AND you are white…
This is, of course, not a truism…..but it is the belief of the majority of whites in America……and if you don’t believe me, tell me the last time you’ve seen a commercial for to solicit money for the ‘poor’, how many white faces did you see???…
….
Of course I do, Rotundo. But, if you read my comment in full, you will come across this:
“His vaguely anthropological asides enable opinion-makers to slap the aforesaid attributes upon the entire American liberal spectrum.”
My observation about Lander is that he seems to focus on profound liberal causes that are trivialized by upper-class twits. As it is, the excesses of upper-class liberals is — in the popular imagination — held to be synonymous with liberalism itself. Hence, his posts make it a damn sight easier for the enemies of liberalism to attack its progressive ideals.
TWKOWP ? please help ! what does that mean ?
surely john mccain would not count as a political prisoner
Greece is a riot. Awesome fuck da man. Fuck da police.
White people protesting against white people. Finally something that unites left wing and right wing those that believe nothing in between.
Proud European.
I’m lovin it.
The University of Southern California Muslim Students Association’s “Compendium of Muslim Texts” — a helpful online collection that I’ve used for years to demonstrate that, the actual content of Islamic teachings on jihad warfare, Islamic supremacism, and related matters — has been renamed the “Center for Muslim-Jewish Engagement.”
Most of the texts are still there, along with a new link to the Talmud. Conspicuously absent is Syed Abul Ala Maududi’s introductions to every Qur’an chapter, which had been a feature of the old site. Maududi, of course, was a Pakistani jihad theorist whose writings remain enormously influential among Muslims today.
Why might Maududi have been deep-sixed by the suddenly ecumenical-minded Muslims of the USC Muslim Students Association? Perhaps it is because of small matters such as his commentary on Qur’an 9:29, in which he states that unbelievers have “absolutely no right to seize the reins of power in any part of God’s earth nor to direct the collective affairs of human beings according to their own misconceived doctrines. For if they are given such an opportunity, corruption and mischief will ensue. In such a situation the believers would be under an obligation to do their utmost to dislodge them from political power and to make them live in subservience to the Islamic way of life” (Towards Understanding the Qur’an, vol. III, p. 202).
Maududi’s introductions to each sura of the Qur’an, although they themselves contain nothing as incendiary as the quote above, have been replaced by a link to the Qur’an commentary by Muhammad Asad (Leopold Weiss), a 20th-century convert to Islam from Judaism whose commentary on the Qur’an is severely whitewashed for Western consumption.
The MSA has also made the collection harder to use, and less helpful. In the old system, which is still accessible from my bookmark to it, although I doubt that will last long, turns up these matches in the hadith for the search “Jew and come and kill”:
The query [Jew and come and kill] generated the following matches:
Complete Sahih Bukhari
001.001.006 005.058.245
Complete Sahih Muslim
041.6981 041.6983 041.6985
Partial Sunan Abu Dawud
None.
Complete Malik’s Muwatta
None.
But if you go into the new system and make exactly the same search, this is what you get:

Note that all of the references are from Malik’s Muwatta. None of them take searchers to the genocidal hadith (Islamic traditions) in Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, the two hadith collections that Muslims consider most reliable, in which Muhammad says that the end of days will come when Muslims kill Jews, and Jews hide behind stones and trees, which then cry out, “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him!”
But those ahadith won’t show up in searches because they have been removed, haven’t they, after the David Horowitz Freedom Center called attention to them — right? Wrong. In the first place, the MSA only removed the ones from Muslim, not the ones from Bukhari, but anyway the ones they removed are now back. Site users can apparently no longer link to them directly — another interesting change — but they can be see by going to book 41 of Sahih Muslim here and scrolling down to numbers 6981 through 6985:
Book 041, Number 6981:
Ibn ‘Umar reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You will fight against the Jews and you will kill them until even a stone would say: Come here, Muslim, there is a Jew (hiding himself behind me) ; kill him.
Book 041, Number 6982:
Ubaidullah has reported this hadith with this chain of transmitters (and the Words are):” There is a Jew behind me.”
Book 041, Number 6983:
Abdullah b. ‘Umar reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You and the Jews would fight against one another until a stone would say: Muslim, here is a Jew behind me; come and kill him.
Book 041, Number 6984:
Abdullah b. ‘Umar reported that Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: The Jews will fight against you and you will gain victory over them until the stone would say: Muslim, here is a Jew behind me; kill him.
Book 041, Number 6985:
Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.
Why all the changes, making this resource so much harder to use, and obviously covering up uncomfortable material so that the unwitting will not discover its existence? The Jews who are participating in this “Center for Muslim-Jewish Engagement” project should be forewarned: reform is not deception, and deception is not reform. The USC MSA has not repudiated the genocidal ahadith. It has just hidden them — and it has done so after removing some of them for a time, under pressure from university authorities. The implications should be obvious.

This blog title is misleading: what you are in fact referring to and mocking is a certain subsection of white people in North America (mainly the US and to a lesser extent the non-Francophone parts of Canada), who are liberal/left-wing poseurs with above average incomes.
Most whites in the UK (where I am from) are nothing like that! Indeed, many whites from America itself are nothing like the whites you mock here. Moreover, whites from the non-anglophone world would hardly recognise any of the stereotypes you portray here. Talk about ethnocentric!
I suspect you are an Angry Asian Male (AAM) who has been brought up and educated among upper-middle class whites, subjected to their patronising behaviour and seen most of “your” fellow Asian women hook up with white men. This blog is your way of expressing your anger and getting some measure of revenge against the whites who have bothered you for so long. It’s funny and all, but please remember the target of your lampooning is a very narrow sub-section of the Caucasian race as a whole.
Oh, and Asians can be just as funny and weird too.

The wrong kind of white people.
I was on my way home on the Cairo Metro, lwhen I noticed a young Egyptian taunting a Sudanese girl. She reached out and tried to grab the girl’s nose and mouth and laughed when the girl tried to brush her hand away.
The Sudanese girl looked to be Dinka, from southern Sudan and not the northern Sudanese who “look like us”. She looked black African and was obviously in distress.
I removed my headphones and asked the Egyptian woman “Why are you treating her like that?”
She exploded into a tornado of yelling, demanding to know why it was my business. I told her it was my business . I knew she was Muslim because she wore a scarf.
Her mother asked me why I didn’t cover my hair and I replied that I didn’t want to be a hypocrite like her and her daughter.
As distressing as I found that young woman’s behaviour, I was even more distressed that the other women in the Metro car with us watched passively and said nothing. They made no attempt to defend the Sudanese girl nor to defend me when I confronted the Egyptian woman.
After the Egyptian woman got off at her station, I asked the other women why they didn’t do anything. One woman said she stayed silent because the racist woman would’ve yelled at her and told her to mind her own business too. So what, I asked? .
I apologized to the Sudanese girl for the Egyptian woman’s behaviour and she thanked me for defending her and told me “Egyptians are bad”. I could only imagine other times she’d been abused publicly.
We are a racist people in Egypt and we are in deep denial about it. On my Facebook page, I blamed racism for my Cairo Metro argument and an Egyptian man wrote to deny that we are racists and used as his proof a programme on Egyptian Radio featuring Sudanese songs and poetry!
That’s like a racist white American denying he’s a racist because he listens to rap and some of his best friends are black.
What else but racism on Dec. 30, 2005 allowed hundreds of riot police to storm through a makeshift camp in central Cairo to clear it of 2,500 Sudanese refugees, trampling or beating to death 28 people, among them women and children?
What else but racism lies behind the bloody statistics at the Egyptian border with Israel where, since 2007, Egyptian guards have killed at least 33 migrants, many from Sudan’s war-torn Darfur region, including a pregnant woman and a 7-year-old girl?
The racism I saw on the Cairo Metro has an echo in the Arab world at large where the suffering in Darfur goes ignored for two main reasons – firstly because its victims are black people and we don’t care about those with dark skins and secondly because those who are creating the misery in Darfur are not Americans or Israelis and we only pay attention when America and Israel are behaving badly.
International experts say that fighting in Darfur has so far killed 200,000 and driven 2.5 million from their homes and yet nobody cares in the Arab world.
My argument on the Cairo Metro was a also a reminder of our double standards. We love to cry “Islamophobia” when we talk about the way Muslim minorities are treated in the West and yet we never stop to consider how we treat minorities and the most vulnerable among us.
The U.S. television network ABC recently staged a scenario in which an actor worked in a bakery in Texas and refused to serve an actress dressed as a Muslim woman in a headscarf. The scene was an experiment to see if other customers would help the Muslim woman.
Thirteen customers defended her by yelling at the clerk, asking for the manager or walking out in disgust. Six customers supported the bigoted clerk and 22 looked away and did absolutely nothing.
I cried when I watched that episode and I wonder now which Egyptian television channel would dare to stage such an experiment? And which Arab television channel would dare to stage a programme which so boldly looks at our racism and confronts us with the question “what would you do?” as the ABC show did.
For those of us who move between different worlds – where one day we are a majority as I am as a Sunni Muslim in Egypt and another we are a minority as I am as a Muslim in America – it is clear that to defend the rights of a Sudanese girl on the Cairo Metro means to defend my right on the New York Subway.
We live in a world that is connected in unprecedented ways. And that connection now extends to rights. If we want our rights to be respected we must do the right thing, everywhere.

Don’t worry all white people will be bread out of existence within 100 years.
Yes It will be mandatory for the coco-brown master race to place a jar of mayonnaise on the TOMB of the WHITE crackers which will be in the form of a TOASTER.
Like a bubbling mass of starter yeast the dominant genes in the semen of the brown and black man will bread out the recessive genetics of the melanin-challenged loafers.
Rise up and impregnate all white girls, I get 7-8 white girls pregnant per week, it is my life’s work. I also have 17 children in my own melanin-soaked family and each of my sons are also involved in kneading the seed into the “whetto” furrow.

I’m sure white upper middle class liberals would be happy to see you be very unhomogenous as long as you did so in ways that allow you to avoid poverty.
Those upper middle class white liberals are on a roll right now since Barack Obama looks like a black upper middle class white liberal. He’s got a Harvard degree which is of course the ultimate way to set yourself on a track away from poverty. If only everyone could get a Harvard degree there’d be no crime and no poverty. Non-white people with Harvard degrees could even be ethnically non-white with their hats and shoes and eat ethnic food at home as long as they wear cashmere sweaters and drive a Prius or a scooter to work and do tasteful home remodeling.

#119 Prentending that posting your political ideas and opinions on blogs actually makes a difference or has the power to change the opinion of even a single weak minded individual
The author of this blog is ASIAN.
This blog reeks of
“Asian American (I am almost 99% it is Korean-American) Guy who realizes that the Fixed Action Patters of Upper Middle Class, Urban, Liberal White People” is the standard target and pinncale lifestyle to which almost all wealthy and educated people in America strive….and is a bit peeved at it so decides to poke fun of it in a light, but still somewhat derisive manner”
For all of you who mistakenly believe that the author is black or hispanic, I quote the famous SNL skit: “Nigga Please!”
Although Black or hispanic people poke fun at and find much of white culture quirky and hilarious, they do not write blogs which dive so deep into showcasing white culture and critique in a way that exudes insecurity or a vent-up “grudge” as this one does. You can see that that none of the items in this blog are really far from fact. Alot of the items of in the list do indeed apply to a very large section of white population in America. The author does not really lie or distort reality. However, that’s just it. Only Asians find the reality of white culture to be bothersome to their pre-programmed prejudices of what is superior. Hispanics and blacks would be more likely to make up and totally distort the reality of white culture and make jokes about it and leave it at that since they really don’t care what white people do as long as it doesn’t infringe upon their enjoyment of life. In other words, Hispanics and blacks are perfectly fine with the whites wanting to recycle, drive Priuses, live by the water, shop at Whole Foods or what not because if they were making as much money or obtaining the same level of financial comfort, many black and Hispanics would probably want to do the same thing too. Or, they would choose not to, but it doesn’t bother them. Simply put, black and hispanics are comfortable being themselves and with white people being different. They really don’t have any dreams or illusions of black or hispanic culture dominating the “stuff that white people like culture” and really don’t get annoyed that liberal, urban white culture is what it is.
However, with Asians, it is a completely different story. Asians have this strange underlying “grudge” or I should say, “inferiority complex” with any culture or people that are different from themselves but hold a dominance in the society in which both live. Thus, this reality does not fit well with the natural competitive and insecure nature that personififes so much of the Asian immigrant culture in the western world. Unlike black and hispanics, the Asian population in western countries has already reached the same level of economic/financial success that white people hold, and in Asian culture, there is no greater feeling of enjoyment than seeing yourself becoming the dominant power. Thus, because Asians share pretty much the same socio-economic status as whites, they are much aware and exposed to white, urban, liberal blue-state culture since they probably work alongside these types of white people and probably have gone to the same wealthy, high ranked, hippie universities full of white people that this blog ridicules. Not too many black and hispanics have reached this position to be so close and neck to neck with the white population that is the target of this blog. That is the diference.
Thus, Asians see that in this country (USA) or whichever country in which Asians and whites are neck to neck, that despite sharing almost the same economic status with that of the white population, the standard for hipness, wealth, and whatever is considered “cool”, fashionable or trendy is basically “stuff that urban, progressively-minded white people like”…not stuff that “rich, successful, science/engineering background-minded Asian people like.” This reality conflicts and does not bode well with what these Asians have believed throughout their entire lives from birth which is that “Our Asian culture is superior to any caucasian culture because our race is the most intelligent and most beautiful in the world”. It is a commonly known fact that Asian culture in the form of parents, schools, media drill this message of racial superiority into their heads from birth. Thus, when these kids grow up and actually see that reality of the world is totally different from what their masters in their little Asian enclave of racial superiority has told them, they get confused, jealous and spiteful to the point where they need to find tribal comfort in congregating with other Asians and finding humor in telling each other how funny it is that white people’s culture is so different from theirs.
The irony is, however, that in secret or behind closed door amonst themselves, alot of Asians actually yearn for the same things found on this list…especially living by the water or shopping at high end groceries. However, they are just irritated that they came from a culture in which their families could not afford to or did not give a rat’s ass about the environment, recycling, helping poor people in third world countries, eating organic food, helping causes, going snowboarding, renovating a house, throwing dinner parties, travelling to exotic locales, etc., Granted it is not their fault because as immigrants to a new country, their parents did not have the time nor luxury of doing these things because they were too busy trying to make money or push their kids at school to learn Calculus by age 10.
Instead, these Asian kids grew up seeing TV shows from their motherland countries and their families living a different culture: obessing about money, buying expensive designer name brand goods with the label on the front to show off (Gucci, Guess, Dolce Gabanna, etc.), smoking cigarettes in front of their girlfriends, driving nothing other than Mercedes Benz and BMWs, listening to cheezy ballad or R&B based pop music, striving to be a rich doctor, never thinking about travelling to third world countries (only places where they want to travel is K-town in LA, NYC, or anywhere which is considered “fashionable”), etc. Becuase they grew up seeing this type of lifestyle and culture as what is cool and what every normal person strives to acheive, they are heartbroken and angry when they realize that noone in upper class America considers this type of lifestyle to be “cool” or reflecting of high class or wealth. Thus, you get the grudge and blogs like this.
Now of course, before anyone jumps on my back, I know I did ALOT of racial stereotyping and applied a huge range of broad labels to Asians in general. However, my response to that is, “I really don’t care.” Why? Because I can. The reason is that although I am not a member of this group, I spent almost all of my 34 years growing up surrounded by Asian Americans with almost 70% of my childhood friends being Asian, going to school with them side by side, eating dinner and spending weekends upon weekends at their houses with their families, and just knowing their culture inside out. I can even speak Mandarin and Korean even though I am a white boy. Now, I will say that almost half of my close friends now are Asian. However, none of these people subscribe or are victims to the mental disease of insecurity and inferiority complex which I described above. In fact, these guys are “whiter” than me in so many ways and unlike the Asians which I describe above, they really don’t care that “white culture” is different from what they grew up with and really don’t care that it is the dominant standard for what is considered trendy and characteristic of wealth and high-class. In other words, they are absolutely comfortable with themselves. Thus, I want to say that NOT ALL ASIANS ARE LIKE WHAT I DESCRIBE ABOVE.
However, I would like point out three points in the list of this blog that are dead giveaways that the author is Asian and not black or hispanice. Here they are:
#68 Divorce
– Please. I think more blacks or hispanics get divorced than whites. No black or hispanic would be foolish to cite this as something characteristic of being something only a white person would do. However, I can’t even count how many times I have heard the endless adage from Asians saying how terrible and inferior white American culture is because the divorce rate is so high in this country. They insist that Asian culture is that of higher morals because divorce is uncommon. Well, I guess it would be that way since the only other alternative for an Asian women would be to become a prostitute and outcasted by society for the rest of her life since a divorced woman has as much value as a slab of T-bone steak 10 days past the expiration date. No wonder you see so many loveless Asian couples who stay together just for superficial face value while the husband goes and screws whores at the hostess bar on a weekly basis while the wife flies to Europe or Thailand with her girlfriends for a romp in the sack with locals. Meanwhile, the kids grow up seeing such a screwed up household and become permanently scarred for life so they end up jaded, angry, and insecure. Thus, many of them end up writing blogs like this. Oh well, but according to them, this type of relationship is waaaay better than divorce.
#47 Art Degrees
– Again, while in university, I was astounded by the number of Asian students who told me how they hated courses in English lit, history, or any of the humanities courses which required them to write. Thus, it’s not surprising that I found the opportunity to make alot of good money from Asian high school kids who would pay me to write their college application essays since they had no writing skills whatsoever to complement their 800 math SAT scores. I’m not talking about international students either but rather Asian-Americans. It’s strange that even with the privledge of having grown up in an English speaking educational system, so many Asians have difficulty in expressing themselves outside of number or equations. I think this stems from the fact that they are conditioned within their families to think that the only respectable disciplines or professions are ones that use science and math. Any other academic discipline such as arts and the humanities is for the inferior white race. Thus, this becomes ingrained in their heads. However, the caveat is that when it comes time to apply to Harvard or Princeton, they realize that their high grades in math/science and 800 math SAT scores don’t mean jack when they also carry poor grades in English or low verbal SAT scores. I guess that’s where I come in. In any case, many an Asian student who was denied his/her chance at Harvard, Stanford or Yale because of their weakness in the arts or humanities has expressed to me their utmost hatred in all of their high school English teachers, college essays, etc and vow that they would like to exterminate any person who majors in such disciplines and gets a better paying job (probably a lawyer) than themselves. Dead giveaway. Blacks and Hispanics don’t give a shit about who majors in what.
#42 Sushi and #58 Japan
– Actually, these two may be more of a confirmation that the blog writer is definitely NOT Japanese but most likely Korean or Chinese American. However, that in itself serves as a strengthening evidence that the writer is definitely Asian and not hispanic or black because there is no way in hell that a black and hispanic would know or even care to subdivide the Asian fetish that alot of white people have. To black and hispanics, a white person fawning over anything Japanese is just an “Asian fetish.” However, to a Korean or Chinese person, a white person fawning over anything Japanese is just one more cherry on the top of the pudding of insult to their own culture which they believe to be superior to that of Japan’s. To Korean-Americans and Chinese-Americans, Japanese are pretty much at the same level as white people are in terms of targets of jealousy, insecurity, disdain and their grudge. I really don’t think any black or hispanic would give a frog’s fat ass whether or not white people preferred Japanese culture/food to that of Koreans or Chinese but for the Koreans and Chinese, it’s just makes them squirm even more with rage and jealous grudge. Spend any time with a Korean or Chinese and they will tell you that the thing that they hate more than Japan itself is the fac t that Japan enjoys a very popular image throughout the first world and is considered “cool” and “hip” among wealthy, urban, intelligent whites. They really don’t like it that kimchi, soju, Korean soap operas, turtle boats, and Panda express do not conjure up the same image of elegance and chicness that sushi, “Lost In Translation”, samurai and sake do for white people. Definitely, it would not be on this list if it was a non-Asian.
For a better idea of what I am talking about, look at the website below. It’s chock full of Asian American males who are venting their anger and frustration at being the little man on the totem pole in American society. Their posts describe their laments but also their dreams and fantasies of finally being able to turn into the second Ming Emperior who will destroy all white males and reestablish themselves as the ultimate alpha males in society. It’s a good laugh.

Damn there are some crazy ass commenters in this world…about as annoying as the douches who put 10 page book reviews on Amazon
“Describes hundreds of studies worldwide that show a consistent pattern of human racial differences in such
characteristics as intelligence, brain size, genital size, strength of sex drive, reproductive potency, industriousness,
sociability, and rule following. On each of these variables, the groups are aligned in the order: Orientals, Caucasians,
Blacks.”
—Mark Snyderman, National Review
Even before there were any intelligence tests, philosophers, statesmen, merchants, and others
thought there was a link between race, intelligence, and cultural achievement. Aristotle, Plato, Voltaire,
and David Hume all believed this. So did Broca, Darwin, Galton, and all the founders of evolution and
anthropology. Even Freud believed in some race differences. But this began to change in the 1920s with
Franz Boas and James B. Watson, who believed that culture could change just about anything. Today,
writers like Jared Diamond in Guns, Germs and Steel (1997) and S. J. Gould in The Mismeasure of Man
(1996) tell us there is no link between race, intelligence, and culture. The differences we see are all just
because of bad luck or White racism.
Louie : Franz Boas and Jared Diamond (Stanford) are jews !!! forget israel ‘ s “support” to apartheid and remeber that of Arab thinkers : Ibn khaldun, Muttanabi ….etc
Can you lump Lyndon LaRouche followers/clones in with this? These might be the most annoying white people on the street.
Black is good. I’ve actully been black my whole life and I love it. There isn’t another color in the whole wide world that I would rather be. Some those of color do all this bitching about jew oppression, etc. Screw em; get a job.
Ya , dude , where’s ol jimmy ?
The first explorers in East Africa wrote that they were shocked by the nudity, paganism,
cannibalism, and poverty of the natives. Some claimed Blacks had the nature “of wild animals… most of
them go naked… the child does not know his father, and they eat people.” Another claimed they had a
natural sense of rhythm so that if a Black “were to fall from heaven to earth he would beat time as he goes
down.” A few even wrote books and made paintings of Africans with over-sized sex organs.
Sound familiar? All just a reflection of racism? Maybe so, but these examples are not from 19th
Century European colonialists or KKK hate literature. They come from the Muslim Arabs who first
entered Black Africa over 1,200 years ago (in the 700s), as detailed in Bernard Lewis’s 1990 book, Race
and Slavery in the Middle East
INTERPOL Yearbooks
show the rate of violent crime (murder, rape, and serious assault) is four times lower in Asian and Pacific
Rim countries than in African and Caribbean countries. Whites in the United States and in European
countries are intermediate. The 1996 INTERPOL violent crime rates clearly show this pattern: Asian
countries, 35 violent crimes per 100,000 people; European countries, 42; and African countries,
149!!!
In the U.S., Blacks are less than 13% of the population but have 50% of all arrests for assault and
murder and 67% of all arrests for robbery. Fifty percent of all crime victims also report their assailants are
Black, so the arrest statistics cannot be due to police bias.
Blacks make up a large share of those arrested for white-collar crimes. About 33% of persons
arrested for fraud, forgery, counterfeiting, and receiving stolen property, and about 25% of those arrested
for embezzlement are Black. Blacks are under-represented only in offenses, such as tax fraud and
securities violations, that are committed by individuals in high status occupations.
On the other hand, Orientals are under-represented in U.S. crime statistics. This has led some to
argue that the Asian “ghetto” has protected members from harmful outside influences. For Blacks,
however, the ghetto is said to foster crime, so purely cultural explanations are not enough.
Female homicides tell the same story. In one study of female arrests, 75% were Black women.
Only 13% were White women. No Asian women were arrested. The cultural explanation for the crime
rate of Black men does not apply to Black women, who are not expected to engage in criminal behavior to
the same extent. There is no “gangster” image among Black females.
The same pattern is found in other countries. In London, England, Blacks make up 13% of the
population, but account for 50% of the crime rate. A 1996 government commission in Ontario, Canada,
reported that Blacks were five times more likely go to jail than Whites, and 10 times more likely than
Orientals. In Brazil, there are 1.5 million Orientals, mostly Japanese whose ancestors went there as
laborers in the 19th century, and who are the least represented in crime.

#119 Prentending that posting your political ideas and opinions on blogs actually makes a difference or has the power to change the opinion of even a single weak minded individual
They’re not pretending, they really are posting their political ideas, and opinions.
As to what they think about the value of their posts, I suppose that varies on a case by case basis.
Pretentious sociopaths like Crass and Louie tend to think that they’re fighting some kind of propaganda war, and usually fail to see even the simplest humor in others’ posts.
But most posters of all stripe and ideology usually just enjoy a good vent here and there.
It’s not about population size per se. It’s about population size in comparison to landmass and natural resources, this being the case I would cite Finland and Switzerland. Denmark tried to address its demographic disparity by third world immigration, now third world immigrants absorb one third of the welfare budget. It’s all about quality of population, not quantity.
Great! Do you have a point you want to make or was that just a cognitive flatulence?
“…forget israel ‘ s “support” to apartheid and remeber that of Arab thinkers : Ibn khaldun, Muttanabi…”
While i understand your points, it still does not minimize the fact that Israel supported Aparteid South Africa with trade and weaponry….and this is a FACT…..
And instead of telling me to forget this fact, you should explain why Israel supported SA….I will explain for you, since you’d like to slide this dark piece of history under the rug….
Israel was besieged from every side of its borders and no other country, other than the US and South Africa, would come to help them with weapons and aid……Israel reciprocated this support with South Africa out of PRACTICALITY….was a lesser of two evils kind of choice….depend on america only and its wishy washy ways (lots of anti-semitism in the US govt at the time of the formation of the state of Israel)….or…..have a back up ally, South Africa, who just so happen to have an extremely racist government…BUT…they supported Israel….
“Check it out’, if you had JUST done your research, you would have known this…..Instead, you go with some veiled threat of ‘forget israel’s ‘support’ to aparteid…….It is the problem with Israel in general, and defenders of Israel in particular……..
too quick to threaten anti-semitism,
too slow to explain your position….
Next time, don’t give me a history lesson about blacks, intelligence, and white folk…..instead give me a history lesson on your people…..Israel.
Bruthas, here are three significant statistics (which you will readily find on the US Census Bureau website:
1) In sheer numbers, there are MORE white people behind bars than any other race in the US (sheer numbers mean how many number of people counted).
2) In sheer numbers, 66% of all people on welfare in the US are white.
3) Whites make up 67% of all white collar crimes, and 75% of those arrested for fraud, forgery, counterfeiting, and receiving stolen property, and for embezzlement.
As for historical aspects:
–white people with diseases have wiped out almost all of the indigenous peoples of the New World.
–white people put the WHOLE WORLD into war…TWICE… killing tens of millions of people (mostly fellow whites).
–white people have caused more damage to the environment than any race of people on the planet.
Summary: What do all these statistics mean? It means that anyone can take them out of context and make their point. It also means that these statistics mean NOTHING. They do not reflect anything with real substance, except to TRY and make a particular group of people look bad….
Bruthas, you would be wise NOT to play the statistics game again with the big boys…..you are a rank amateur.
Rule No.1: at least sight where YOUR LIES came from!
In the 1990s, European countries may have had lower violent crime rates in their own countries because THEY were causing violence in other people countries!
As for violent crime rates in asian countries, INTERPOL would NOT be a reliable source….asian countries are more than capable of reporting their own statistics….
And finally in african countries, most of the violent crimes were witnessed by european and american countries, but DID NOTHING to stop it….Rwanda??….Somalia??…Ethiopia? (to name a few)…..
“for whom”…there are lies, damned lies, and finally STATISTICS…
…you wrote damned lying statistics….
Hey Nora, please, do tell what the Muslim Arabs/Moors wrote about the white europeans left from the fall of the Roman Empire (only about 100 years later, in the late 700s-early 800s AD)??
I will help you…..they called them ‘savages’ and heathen (afterall, that was what they were….the visigoths, astrogoths, and all those other Northern european invaders who finally brought down the Roman Empire and settled in the huge manors of the former rulers)….
The Muslim conquerers of the Iberian peninsula were disgusted by the filthiness of these europeans and their unclean habits (extreme aversion to baths and cleanliness)…..The Muslims drove these people off of the Iberian peninsula to the Alps, and occupied the peninsula for over 700 years….
BTW, The conquerers were eventually called Moors (which means BLACK)….They were INCORRECTLY called Arabs, when in fact, these dark skinned North Africans were converted by Arabs to Islam…..the conquering forces had a negligible number of people from Arabia……
oh, and as for your entry….the Muslim Arabs DID NOT look at the people you described as BLACK AFRICANS…..on the contrary, they thought of these people as a more uncivilized CULTURE than their own…..
All the negative adjectives used were to emphasize the DIFFERENCES between themselves and the native africans they encountered…..
BEFORE european whites injected the notion of RACE into the institution of slavery (which had been around since the beginning of human civilizaton), the enslavers hardly EVER looked at the enslaved exclusively by skin color…..It was a conquerer/ conquered relationship…the loser of the conflict will inevitably become the slave of the winner……It was cultural, NOT RACIAL..
Mr. Lewis’s book may have described what the Arabs witnessed when they encountered native africans, but i can tell you that this BLACK AFRICANS notion is A WHITE IDEAL….only so-called white intellectual people would split up a continent of dark skinned people and choose who would be called BLACK, and who would be called non-black….even though the continent is all various shades of brown skin……
I have yet to hear a white intellectual say that the SLAVIC white people are a DARKER SHADE of white due to their history of being enslaved europeans..
The root word “slave” is derived from a national name, SLAV, which used to mean “glory” but was perverted to mean servitude when the Germanic barbarians supplied European slave markets with captured peoples of Slavic descent during the period after the fall of the Roman Empire.
You are alot of things anonymous, but being funny and clever aren’t some of them…..I will refrain calling you the other ‘things’ that come to mind…..

“…Pretentious sociopaths like Crass and Louie tend to think that they’re fighting some kind of propaganda war, and usually fail to see even the simplest humor in others’ posts…..”
Ray G!….I am now a sociopath?….LOL….and i ‘fail to see even the simplest humor in others’ posts?”……Hmmmm……Let us evaluate the substance of your accusations, shall we??
1) Louie- pretentious sociopath….
pretentious |priˈten ch əs|
adjective
attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed.
sociopath |ˈsōsēōˌpaθ|
noun
a person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior and a lack of conscience.
I will have to say that if you do not agree with my opinions Ray, you DO have the choice to ignore them…but I guess my pretentiousness is just too inviting for you to ignore…I consider this a compliment……as for being a sociopath, you obviously did not know the definition of the word, so i posted it for you…
You know Ray, I see no shame in you being a mental midget in areas you know nothing about…and obviously DO NOT want to know nothing about (In your case, you are the definition of IGNORANCE IS BLISS)….that is why you said…”But most posters of all stripe and ideology usually just enjoy a good vent here and there….”…People like YOU love to VENT because of your frustration in your limited intellectual capacities….If you UNDERSTOOD what you read most of the time, you would not be so frustrated…..and VENTING would not be necessary….
“…On each of these variables, the groups are aligned in the order: Orientals, Caucasians, Blacks…..”
hmm….I’ll be sure to inform Mr. Obama of these findings later on.
…now here is a study just put out as you are reading it Toni:
USA–75% white population
Leader of USA–African American
Relevance of that diatribe from that conservative propoganda rag, National Review–0.00%
It seems that ‘caucasians and orientals’ in the most powerful country in the free world had decided to vote for an african american to lead them…..and what does that say about Mr. Snyderman??
Louie, you’re an absolute nut case as we all are. The difference is that you’re such an extreme one. You don’t fit in, and you want to so badly. You’re ideas and rantings aren’t acceptable to the rest of us. You want to save us, and we don’t need saving. Although, there may be a place for you. Have you ever considered running for the governor of Illinois?
If we go by your argument of ‘quality of population, not quantity,” then naturally as the third world immigrants become more educated, fewer would be on welfare with each succeeding generation?……Integration into the greater society??
Look at the welfare costs for Denmark as ‘start up costs’ invested in the first generation of immigrants….and the ‘return’ in profit will be the succeeding generations becoming productive citizens…who would be contributing to the system…in greater numbers….
Ha ha ha ! black Buckaroo against black louie !!!
Buckaroo, I am NOT trying to fit in…..it is OBVIOUS that you, like most of the people don’t like my comments, are either:
— SHALLOW thinkers (because ONLY SHALLOW people would talk about FITTING IN with a particular group)…or
—Ignorant…which in your case, may be true…..afterall, only an ignorant person would state that my comments are “ideas and rantings aren’t acceptable to the rest of us…”..are you saying that folk like, nobama, are like you?…….
—Disagree with my comments BUT at least produce counter comments with THOUGHT put in them…..
Your problem Buckaroo is that so many people have DISMISSED your asinine comments on this blog (I won’t bother to list the names) that you feel that you need a brand new foot to go up your ass….so you come to me because you KNOW that i will oblige and kick you in the ass faithfully and quite often if you continue to state stupid comments to me…
Buckaroo, don’t make the mistake as nobama (remember him?…that mental midget shut you up), and provoke me….I do not try to save anyone on this blog…..what i do is EDUCATE….and if you have any knowledge that prove me wrong, then state it….but don’t go into personal attacks because YOU WILL LOSE if you try that crap with me…..
Move on little boy before you get bitch slapped again….
Just because you slap a “Save ‘who the fuck ever'” on the back of your SUV does not make you a freedom fighter…it just shows what an uppity tool you are. The fact you don’t realize it makes you stupid.
Buckaroo is NOT black…..he is either a self hating wanna be white or he is the ultimate in the definition SELLOUT…..He sides with the very people who hate him because of his color…..
Racist White folk love weak minded people like Buckaroo……
“Can’t we all just get along?”

Many Blacks are victims of crime especially black women are the most victims of black men. And there are many White and Oriental criminals.
Nevertheless, the criminals are disproportionately Black. U. S. Department of Justice statistics report that
Blacks are 60 times more likely to attack Whites than Whites are to attack Blacks. For the 20% of violent
crimes that are interracial, 15% involve Black offenders and White victims; 2% involve White offenders
and Black victims.
A survey done by Mark Snyderman and Stanley Rothman in the 1987 American Psychologist found
that a majority (52%) of scientists said the Black-White IQ difference was partly genetic. Only 17% said
it was entirely cultural. More recently, a special task force of the American Psychological Association
agreed that there was a three-way pattern of race differences in brain size and IQ. Perhaps because of
political correctness, the Task Force threw up its hands about the causes and decided to play it safe by
saying “no one knows why” (see the 1996 and 1997 issues of the American Psychologist.).
If they say we were doin’ wrong
If they say we were out too long
Well, you can say
My arms were just too strong
Put the blame, put the blame on me
Felt so good when I held you tight
Couldn’t stop when we kissed goodnight
So if they tell us we don’t have the right
Put the blame, put the blame on me
What I feel is deep inside
This is real and I won’t hide
Go ahead and use my name
I’ll be proud to take the blame
You just did what I made you do
You love me and I love you
So if the way they talk can bother you
Put the blame, put the blame on me
What I feel is deep inside
This is real and I won’t hide
Go ahead and use my name
I’ll be proud to take the blame
You just did what I made you do
You love me and I love you
So if the way they talk can bother you
Put the blame, put the blame on me
My point is that your assertion that people with low-paying jobs have them because they’re stupid or lazy is absolutely ludicrous.
If you have to have people’s rebuttals spelled out for you, maybe you need a new hobby. Something more appropriate for you.
The political prisoner has to be the right kind of political prisoner, i.e. in prison for opposing “the system” in a free country. The wrong kind of political prisoner is in prison for opposing “the system” in an non-free (Communist) country, such as Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
This is a cesspool of idiocy. On one side is boring liberal propaganda. On the other side is the racist nonsense that always comes from Republicans.
Do white people feel this way about Natan Sharansky also?
He now represents what dumb white people hate now: Israel.
I stated my case above, end of story. Your side tracking techniques are only child’s play as is your name calling. Rant on bitch.
Oh ya , right wing jackass ! good job!
Your post is interesting, Louiecoolgato.
You’ve made an excellent case that white upper class liberals, who make pretentious displays of their “non-racism,” at least at their favored minorities, are the most racist of us all.
It’s like they think of blacks / Mexicans as pets.
I think poor black males need middle class/ wealthy black men to return to the ghetto to invest in infrastructure, start businesses to employ blacks and live there to provide visible symbols of success and provide substitute-fathering for all the black boys living with single mothers.
we are FAR from living in a post-racial society…….but we are closer than we were before November 4th…..
I wouldn’t be so sure.
1.
Obama is an immigrant. says Bill Richardson, Secretary of Commerce, on French TV, in Spanish with English translation:
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2008/12/huh_what_does_bill_richardson.html
The Constitutional crisis coming will be of biblical proportions. United States Justice Foundation intends to sue to overturn every single piece of legislation Obama signs until he provides proof he is a natural-born citizen.
“We will file lawsuits on [Obama’s] actions, every time. As long as we have money, we will keep filing lawsuits until we get a decision as to his citizenship status,”
2.
Also, with the coming collapse of the dollar, Obama’s going to wish he weren’t president just now. Because presidents, rightly or wrongly, take the heat when the populace experiences economic pain.
Another black or part-black may not be elected President again for a very, very long time.
Errr… not so fast.
It all started at an immigration site where Middle Easterners are applying for asylum.
quote
Asylum seekers riot in Athens
Hundreds of migrants waiting to submit asylum applications rioted in central Athens, setting fire to rubbish bins and attacking passing cars. Protesters said the riot began when one man fell into a nearby canal after authorities told the crowd that no more applications could be submitted. Only a small number of applications can be submitted each week.
and
Rights groups have often criticised Greece’s treatment of illegal immigrants and the living conditions in detention centres. Greece approved only 140 of the 20,692 asylum applications made in 2007, according to the UN refugee agency. Tens of thousands of illegal migrants enter Greece each year. Many attempt dangerous sea crossings from nearby Turkey or brave minefields to make their way in.
and
It was not immediately clear how the man fell into the canal. Police said he was injured and was taken by ambulance to a hospital. They said they were investigating the incident. Outraged asylum-seekers began setting fire to rubbish bins and throwing them into the street, and ripped branches off trees to set them alight. A smaller group threw rocks at passing cars, stopping some vehicles and banging on them with their hands. There were no reports of any passers-by being injured. The riot lasted for about an hour, and riot police who were on standby nearby did not intervene. A fire truck extinguished the blazes.
The above is quoted from this article:
http://majorityrights.com/index.php/weblog/comments/immigrants_in_greece_riot_msm_caught_red_handed/
Many Greeks are angry at the illegal immigration. Leftist/anarchists rioted in sympathy with the man in the canal.
Other Greeks began rioting against the rioters.
You do not know this because mainstream media is very, very careful to never make it obvious ethnicities if they can help it.
They use words like “youth” “people” “rioters” and pictures that don’t really show who’s doing what, in order to subtly mislead readers to assume it is the majority misbehaving.
If posting on blogs has no power to change minds, then neither do all the “conversations” liberals love to engage in.
Oh, and the irony?
You are posting on a blog trying to convince people that posting on blogs is useless and they should stop, as if your posting on a blog is going to convince anyone to change his mind about posting on blogs.
Since you did post on a blog, pretending posting makes a difference, you must like it. Ergo, you must be white.
Louie,
You are certainly trying to “educate” the posters here with your, errr, sorry-ass, woefully unsupported views.
But, how many blacks’ lives have you actually ever done anything substantive to improve?
Statistics don’t matter?
So since you are statistically more likely to be run over by a car standing in the freeway than in someone’s back yard, and statistics don’t matter, should we conclude that it would be good advice to tell kids to play in the freeway because it’s fun?
“…So since you are statistically more likely to be run over by a car standing in the freeway than in someone’s back yard, and statistics don’t matter, should we conclude that it would be good advice to tell kids to play in the freeway because it’s fun?…..”
I, uhhh…..don’t know…….’s’……would go and test your hypothesis and go to the nearest freeway and play on it (preferrably at night and in dark clothes)??…..If you don’t come back, then I will know that the answer!
“….Louie, you’re an absolute nut case…”
You drew first blood with the name calling….I just finished it….
end of story…..
PS: THINK before you type Buckaroo….things can, and will, be taken out of context if you are not careful about what you type…
“….a majority (52%) of scientists said the Black-White IQ difference was partly genetic. Only 17% said
it was entirely cultural…..”
And I guess that 100% of the ‘scientists’ who came to these conclusions were WHITE?
I am black and I find this blog and the comments on it hilarious. It really brings out the best in people, doesn’t it?
hahahha….
dude you guys are both idiots
blacks commit more crimes by percentage than whites…its the truth….i know a lot of white and black people that wish it wasnt the case but it is and socially conscious (also not racist or stupid) people are trying to change this
ps learn how to form a good rebuttal or counter argument, your stats were way worse and pointless pretty much…his stats were put in pretty good context actually (motivation behind them might have been not so good though)
pps CITE NOT SIGHT YOU RETARD…fuck
first point is just stupid logic if you actually think that “causing violence in other people(yes singular) countries!” would even have an impact like that on domestic crime..
“asian countries are more than capable of reporting their own statistics” not the best statement b/c China is historically infamous for being the exact opposite of capable and reliable when reporting their own anything to other countries/the international community
also…international intervention isnt such an easy thing…the richest, most “stable” countries arent supposed to go around and get involved with every conflict like theyre the world police just b/c it may a good thing to do…its not our duty…b/c really when you think about it, stopping some civil, long-standing war in an african country is a lot less of a problem to “witness” than things going on in our own country like our own poverty, crime, violence, etc.
Not me. I believe in statistics.
You’re the one who says statistics are worthless. So whether I get killed or not means nothing, to you, by your argument. In fact if 50000 children tried it and half died, you’d blame it on, what? Racist cars?
I know what you mean Nikki, i’m black too and i’m as surprised as you.
Welcome to the internet, white guy.
You, sir, are awesome.
God bless you s, it is so true .
The burden on black women is so high , when a black man succeeds, not the majority stay with black women (like spike lee , denzel washington, barack …) to give a good example of fathering .
Pity of liberals is of no utility .
whether you are white, black or wathever, you hit the nail .
u b funny. not coy, but entertaining to this white boy. I love being white!!!
you are right…”DUMB” people hate Isreal.
you could have saved about 140 “let me sound brilliant by spewing 150 words” by just saying “I’m jealous and mad because you don’t agree with me. My opinion is the only one that’s right” …cry me a river.
not possible, cars don’t kill people, people don’t kill people…only guns kill people.
are their any black racists??? just curious.
I’m a pinto, just thing of the fun I’m having.
Mumia! How have I been talking to white people all this time and not heard of Mumia?!?
Mandela, sure. Everyone knows Mandela is a saint on earth. Except for maybe that disgruntled remnant now packing for Perth.
But Mumia’s a new one on me.
Butt aroo , just read a “poem” on a love story between you and james !!! ha ha ha ha !
I could have written 151 words and still agree with what you said…..”you don’t agree with me. My opinion is the only one that’s right”…..
Uh, if you do not agree with your own opinion, then you are stupid to state that opinion…..I guess your opinions are kind of stupid, aren’t they steve?
Let me re-phrase….SOME statistics are worthless…..if used to draw an inaccurate conclusion….
Ummmm…..can you CITE my middle finger I’m giving to you right now???
Well thank you for your enlightened opinion Ummm….next time we want more input from the PEANUT GALLERY, we will surely call you back…..
Justice Clarence Thomas….
The statistics are that blacks are 7X more likely to be in prison than whites.
So is this statistic evidence of some nefarious conspiracy that cops and judges are arresting blacks when the perp was white?
Not if you look at the crime victimization survey statistics.
Blacks are in prison for crimes in very nearly exactly the same proportions as the victims of those crimes describe their perpetrator as black.
So is this evidence of some nefarious conspiracy that victims are accusing blacks when the perp was white?
Nonsense. She wants her perp caught so he can’t victimize her again.
So here’s statistical proof the cops and judges are doing an excellent job of catching the people that match the descriptions by the victims of the perps.
Here is statistical evidence that there is no evil plot by the criminal justice system to frame innocent people. The stats are true. Blacks commit more crimes, and especially more violent crimes.
The answer is for prosperous black men to return to the ghetto, invest in the ghetto, make infrastructure improvements in the ghetto, start businesses in the ghetto to employ blacks, and live in the ghetto to provide a visible symbol of success to young black males and provide substitute-father figures to black boys being raised by single mothers.
Again I ask you, Louiecoolgato, what really substantive things have you done to improve the lives of your fellow blacks?
Well ‘s’, I’m a teacher….Of course ‘s’, you neglect to state that everything you’ve stated applies to your so-called ‘white’ people….and in larger numbers….after all, there are MORE WHITES in America, thus MORE WHITES in our jails and MORE WHITES who are on welfare….
I can ask you the very question you ask of me….”what really substantive things have you done to improve the lives of your fellow WHITES…..other than race bait?….
‘s’ would have been even more blessed if he would have stated that white, upper class conservatives, who make pretentious displays of actually caring about people NOT LIKE THEM, are included in that group of MOST RACIST and CLASS bias of all ‘whites’…..
You are correct selma that the burden of black women is high, as are ALL women, when you think about it……and as you already know, when WHITE MEN succeeds, the women who were with them to the point of success ARE KICKED TO THE CURB….Good examples of this are ALL OF THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENCY (with the exception of Romney)….everyone of them traded their first wives in for TROPHY young white women….
I am VERY surprised that you did not point this fact out to ‘s’….
FREE EVERYBODY.
Steven Soderberg told me so.
I feel this is the appropriate place to mention this, but i feel we all should join forces and protest to free OJ Simpson. He hasnt hurt anyone and he is the biggest political prisoner known to man at this moment in time. LET THE JUICE LOOSE!!!!!!!who is with me. Lets join forces for the greater good.
Clander, you need to update your blog more than once every two weeks bro. I know you can say you’re busy and stuff, but Andrew SUllivan is a lot busier than you and he updates his blog like five times a day.
Of course we have more whites in jail. There are far more white people in America. We’re 70% of the population. You guys are 13%. For you to have more black people in jail than there are whites in jail, in simple, total number terms, then that would mean almost every single black male would be in jail.
But in proportion to your population you guys have 6 – 7 X more criminality.

quote
i n 2006, blacks were 37.5% of all state and federal prisoners, though they’re under 13% of the national population. About one in 33 black men was in prison in 2006, compared with one in 205 white men and one in 79 Hispanic men. Eleven percent of all black males between the ages of 20 and 34 are in prison or jail.
So 3% of black men are in prison, but only 1/2% of white men.
What have I done for whites? Teach moms how to breastfeed and provide mom-to-mom support. Why? Because, while IQ is about 50-80% inherited, and evidence indicates heredity sets an upper limit on IQ, there is some environmental effect, in that poor nutrition can cause brain damage to the rapidly growing infant. So to allow every white child the optimum nutrition for brain development, as well as a host of other health and mental health issues, breast is best.
Which is, of course, true for blacks, also. Breastfeeding allows them the chance to reach the highest IQ their own heredity allows. I’m happy to help a black mom on the phone, but I will not enter the ghetto for personal safety reasons.
Louie, why do you think I am a man?
Is dat sum Ras Trent?

‘s’, if you are not a male, I apologize for the mistake….I usually get comments similar to yours from males….
Can’t read your post…..too long.
Excellent post.
I agree.
and will add:
Free Thought!
and i agree, free OJ.
What a laugh, you folks trying to figure out if I’m white or black. If I told you the truth you wouldn’t believe me. I’m a loving this.
Keep the OJ in the cooler.
Mr Simpson is a victim of circumstance and he deserves justice. Sure, mistakes were made in his past but lets bygones be bygones, there has been a miscarriage of justice and Mr Simpson deserves a fair chance.
yes, let all felons loose. Let bygones be bygones. I’m sure most every criminal will tell you he’s sorry and he just needs to be understood and set free.
it’s the colleges stupid. One day, with any luck, you’ll wake up.
what version is that??? That hitler murdered tens of thousands simply because they were Jews? oops, it was hundreds of thousands.
deez people got too much time on day hands
how about shoe at bush kid? that was kinda a political statement
OJ is a murderer and he is right where he belongs. Louie, you probably belong right there with him.
Check out a story about students protesting Winter at
http://detentionslip.org/2008/02/breaking-uw-madison-students-protest.html
Are you referring to the louie who has been sticking foot up your ass all this time, that guy rocks. Im flattered that you would think that I am him but unfortunatly im not. Im just enigma, the other guy who has been sticking foot up your ass and I hope he sees this along with everyone else who been keeping you in a childs place. Im sure they would get a kick on how shell shocked you are that you would just say names at random. LOL, you are truly a tool. Take your gay ass to bed and sleep off this asswhoppin you received from me today. For those who would like to know, Mr dumbfuckaroo has attempted to be a wise guy to me on another blog and i had to put his dumb ass in his place. nuff said, now put alil love in your heart BOY, 🙂
Yer, kinda political. Except that physically assaulting someone is considered a crime even if you think you are noble in doing it.
Um OJ Simpson is in prison for robbing a casino in Las Vegas.
I’m slightly confused as to how this qualifies him as a political prisoner.
“….The Constitutional crisis coming will be of biblical proportions. United States Justice Foundation intends to sue to overturn every single piece of legislation Obama signs until he provides proof he is a natural-born citizen…..”
Uhh……’s’, you must not be a US citizen….this issue of citizenship has been SETTLED…all that foolishness about citizenship has been thrown out of court…..And to educate you, Hawaii IS one of the US fifty states….he was born in one of the 50 states….PS: In case you did not know this, Obama is NOT an immigrant…
Father born in Kenya=African
Mother born in Kansas=American
Obama born in Hawaii= AFRICAN AMERICAN….with emphasis on the AMERICAN…
2. the EURO is going down also….and because of this, the EU will be in serious danger of breaking up if the european economy continues to tank and unemployment continues to rise….
3. Another black may not elected again for a very long time, BUT it will not be another plus 200 years wait like this time….BTW, I personally believe that our next president will be a woman…..8 years from now….
well look-e here??…..Mr. Buckaroo is has a ‘serious opinion’ now… Hmmmm…and on a serious subject like OJ?!!……And I thought you did not like ‘serious opinion’ Buckaroo……but I guess all that has changed after a few events that did not put you and your opinions in a positive light…..now where shall i start as to how you got into this position?…
First you got ‘punked out’ by almost everyone on this blog, your opinions are weak and shallow, you don’t know if you’re black, white, or otherwise, and now you are trying to salvage your dignity by provoking me??
…..Sorry Buck…you are DAMAGED GOODS…I need not say anything else about you or to you….there are many ‘friends’ of yours out there who will be more than happy to express how they feel about you……
YOUR credibility card has been yanked……
You are DISMISSED…..
bye bye!!
Mistakes were made.
Free Mumia? No…FRY Mumia! A cop-killing street thug is still a cop-killing street thug even with wire-frame glasses.
what’s so terrible about killing cops?
I don’t blame you for not entering ghettos….those ‘poor white folk’ have been known to be dangerous….especially at night….
And I think the black moms do appreciate you giving ‘help’ over the phone instead of visiting them….It is nice to know that a person who calls themselves ‘a teacher’ would opt to do it over the phone instead of personally…..It reflects the QUALITY of your skills, ‘s’…..
WHITE PEOPLE ARE EURO-WINE-SOCCER-LIBERAL-GLOBALIST LOVING GAYS AND SISSIES!

Funny, but the real Buckaroo only loves his horse.

Nobody loves youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!
If you were a Proper White Person (PWP) you’d have the manhood and moral certainty to phrase this statement in the active. The onus is now on you to explain your pro-cop killing platform.
Phrasing statements in the form of questions – *extremely* TWKOWP.
if one does not want to know nothing then doesn’t that mean one actually DOES want to know something?
Hey einstein…”and obviously DO NOT want to know nothing about” is a double negative. All that jazz you write and you ain’t so smart after all! lol
wow, you ARE quite stupid. Are you a professor?
hmmm you are accusing someone of childsplay for name calling while calling them a bitch???
WOW! You took quite a leap of faith. I’ll pass. I have this friend named enigmama, and he’ll be glad to join you in some kind of weird cluster fuck.
No you don’t, you just want to get at my horse.
Huh?
Right on, baby. You’ve got it. Louie and enigmama will be along with alil love.
You call me stupid (which i deny), and yet you do not know how to write a sentence with complete words…..and I quote:
“…u b funny. not coy, but entertaining to this white boy. I love being white!!!….”
Now let me say that you are not only stupid, you are illiterate, ignorant, and a dumbass!……And you love being white!
(fortunately, most white people are not like you…being a stupid, illiterate, ignorant dumbass, that is…)
Thank God they have not dared murder Mumia. By the way I hope the shoe thrower is alive.
No buttaroo, I dont have to come along and spread alil xmas cheer to r.a.m, he is a fine example of ignorance at its best. I will let his words speak for him. You should actually feel flattered that I would engage in alil war of words with you, this dumb ass is a waste of a blog. I will continue to rearrange my sockdrawer and ignore real american dumbass. WHOO YEAH, BIG MUSCLE, SMALL BRAIN. YEAH. put alil love in your heart :), hohoho muthafu@*a
AWESOME POST! LOVE IT!
80 % of black babies are born to single mothers! this is UNIQUE in the world and explains the failure of black society , the hidden secret : men’s irresponsability !! blaming slavery is easy ! enough said.
Engmama,
Damned, you’re not as bad as you want people to believe, but you do need to get over this alil love crap thing. It’s not becoming of you. I get a certain feeling you’re warming up to me so you sneak alil love from my horse when I’m not looking. Louiecoolgato tried it and got his ass kicked into next week. Beware, you’ve been warned.
From Vanity Fair’s excellent article “The Famous and the Dead…”
http://www.danielfaulkner.com/original/indexvanity.html
“Nine seconds later, when police arrived at the scene, they found that Officer Faulkner was not in the act of making an arrest. Instead, he was sprawled on the sidewalk with two bullet wounds. According to eyewitness accounts and testimony by ballistics experts and the pathologist who examined his body, the first bullet had been fired from approximately 19 inches away. It tore into the left side of Faulkner’s upper back, one inch to the left of the midline, almost at the base of his neck. According to the prosecutions reconstruction of the incident, Faulkner returned fire and actually hit the man who had just shot him.”
“While Faulkner was down on his back, the shooter walked over to him, stood at point-blank range, and continued to fire. One of the bullets hit Faulkner in the face. It erupted in a flash that a witness could clearly see, and Faulkner’s entire body jerked from the impact. The bullet, fired from a distance of approximately 12 inches, entered his face five inches below the top of his head, exploded through his nose, tore through the bones of his face, through the bones above his eyes, through his entire brain, through the right parietal bone in the back of his head, and lodged in the right occipital bone.”
Good point buck! tired of this put alil … stupidity.
Truth be said, I don’t know anyone born who was NOT born to a single mother…..which is unique to every living thing in the world……are you an ALIEN and born from conjoining mothers??….If so, the hidden secret is that you are what was kept a secret by the US Govt in Area 51….
Hey Kris, I got something new just for you, put my nuts in your mouth bitch. HoHoHo muthaf@#ka 🙂
Put alil love in your heart Buttaroo, really, put alil love in your heart. Under no circumstance am I concerned with your lil warning. I am not Louie so why do you keep implying that i am. I dont know about louie, but I can go all day and night. Like the energizer bunny. You havent been talkin as much nonsense as you have in earlier post, therefore I havent been sticking as much foot up your ass as I could. I will keep saying put alil love in ones heart till hell freezes over and then i will keep sayin till it thaws out. If you or anyone else dont like it, then to hell one can go cause i am not stoppin. And please dont attempt to relate or drop knowledge to me like we are cool cause we are not. Oh, and thanks for the compliment you stated earlier saying im not as bad as people think, unfortunately, if provoked, im ten times worse than what they bargin for. BEWARE, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Now, your not as dumb as i thought you were. Really, therefore your not as bad either. time will tell though. Put alil ………, out the goodness of my heart and as a xmas gift to you my nemisis, i will spare you my signiture line. I will leave off with my holiday saying,
hohoho muthaf*@ka 🙂
Today there are no more real men, only effeminate soccer loving white liberal euro lovers. REAL MEN watch football not soccer, REAL MEN eat steak not cusinine, REAL MEN drink american beer not imported sissy wine, REAL MEN work in a factory not a lame university on the east coast
Someone who puts cream on their face and lets the cat lick it in order to shave is some kind of tough guy. Does your pablum bottle have a happy face on it? Isn’t your mother tired of having you around the house; after all you are thirty-five years old?
Now that I’ve been warned; now what? Some ridge running jug fucker, such as yourself, isn’t very threatening.
Love in my heart, up your ass.
Happy holidays, and stay away from my horse.
Ouch buttaroo, you really hit a nerve there, man, I may have to leave you alone now. You REALLY put me in my place. Im 42 and live with my granny, and she dont mind, but enough about me, i have never in my life heard anything like what you do with your cat. You know too much about cat love buddy. They have laws against activities like that dude. You definitely need help.
So now you want to know whats next, well lets see, if you keep attempting to provoke me, I will keep on sticking foot up your ass. I will keep callin you out on all the beastiality statements you keep making about yourself and I will definitely focus my attention on you and all the stupid things that you say to me and everybody else. i understand your reaching out for help, because you will need it playing around with me son, i would strongely advise you to get up on your lil horse/lover and ride off into the sunset and leave me be. Put alil love in your heart buttaroo.
hohoho muthaf*&ka 🙂
I knew sooner or later you would mess up and us my name in vain bitch, but since you are the bitch that are, sex amongst two animals, bitch and horse, may be ackward looking, Im not sure it would be against any laws especially since you are doing it consentually. I see you are trying to be slick by attempting to talk under the radar, what a BITCH move. Hence, from this day forth, you will be known simply as bitcharoo, why, because you cant handle the heat of written debate. You have to go to the sneaky jabs and bitch ass blogs about people behind there back. I understand why you kept mistaking me for Louie, he really shut you down, he stuck so much foot up your ass that you mistaked the beat down i was putin on you for his. Hmmm, were you attempting to try to put us against each other bitch. that might work on the tv show ‘survivor’ but your dumb ass cant out wit, out play or outlast a damn thing. then you try to put me up against real american male, sorry try again punk, now you are introducing ben boy to the mix. I have no beef with any of the named people, i just have a problem with a lil bitch ass, have to sneak around to throw jabs cant say it in a persons face blogger who loves to have sex with animals. i hope your horse kicks the living sh**out of you after he bends you over. put alil love in your heart bitcharoo. 🙂
hohoho muthafu*@a!!!
Awwwww, aint that sweet, your in love with James, is he the one you call on when you get in trouble bitcharoo. “Im the buckaroo you good damn imposter. I blame my daddy James for pretending he is me……..” LOL,, oh yeah, nice poem. I think James could pick a better bitch than you though, but who am I to judge. LOL. put alil love in your heart bitcharoo. 🙂
hohoho muthaf*#ka.
uh, don’t elephants DROP ALOT OF SHIT??….hmmm, just like you, eh steve??
Steve, let’s try this in a language that you understand…..If Steve does not want to no anything, then Steve does not know anything, thus Steve is not only ignorant:
ignorant |ˈignərənt|
adjective
lacking knowledge or awareness in general; uneducated or unsophisticated
But also INCREDIBLY STUPID (with emphasis on the stupid):
stupid |ˈst(y)oōpid|
adjective ( -pider, -pidest)
lacking intelligence or common sense
Clear enough for you airhead??
Ah, you’ve had too much. You’re now begging me to go away. What’s the matter, did you get your feelings hurt?
What’s this cat stuff? In your desperation to be more than a junior high tuff guy you have run aground and turned to your cat to make a connection to reality. Maybe you should cuddle up to granny, I’m sure she loves you. Then again she may not.
What the hell is with the happy face? Really, I mean really.
You dont have the brain power to offend me son, and dont try to weasel your way from the cat you intoduced. I dont own a cat, and I have never heard of letting a cat lick cream off ones face. Thats just gay and only a gay mind would think of something like that. Dont put that on me freak. I will just say this bitcharoo, you are a total tool and you could win a intellectual contest if your opponant was a beagle. Im getting bored with you, your no longer amusing, just pathetic. You sneak around mentioning other peoples names in your blog in places you think you wont be found because your too scared to say it directly too them. Your a coward, a bore and a moron. I had my fun with you and i realized that nothing new will come from you. You are no challenge. I bid you farewell bitcharoo, for here on out, i will just give you the appropriete response of FUCK OFF LIL BOY, stay in a boys place. its been real, you loser. Put alil love in your heart 🙂
hohoho muthaf*&ka
forget faulkner. mumia is innocent. freemumia.com
p.s. i am so white. it’s hilarious.
Tara and Who?,
I completely agree with what you both say. I’m agraduate student in a Sociology dept, and I find these idiots all the time. I find it hilariously when they talk about socialism, hating corporations and the working class,… but these people comes from the upper class, have never worked a day in their lives, seem to have traveled all over Europe and virtually live in Starbucks. oh, the horror.
Everything is political.
But not by us…..at least as far as we want you to know.
It looks like he got 15 years
Real lame men say what you say..
If they say we were doin’ wrong
If they say we were out too long
Well, you can say
My arms were just too strong
Put the blame, put the blame on me
Felt so good when I held you tight
Couldn’t stop when we kissed goodnight
So if they tell us we don’t have the right
Put the blame, put the blame on me
What I feel is deep inside
This is real and I won’t hide
Go ahead and use my name
I’ll be proud to take the blame
You just did what I made you do
You love me and I love you
So if the way they talk can bother you
Put the blame, put the blame on me
What I feel is deep inside
This is real and I won’t hide
Go ahead and use my name
I’ll be proud to take the blame
You just did what I made you do
You love me and I love you
So if the way they talk can bother you
Put the blame, put the blame on me
A blast from the past bitcharoo, You got dumped by James, its just you and your horse.
hohoho muthaf*@ka

OMG! That was SO clever!!! And to think, a dumb old ass thought of that! lmao
Hey brilliant, you mis spelled “know” the first time you typed it. Guess you are lacking intelligence and are a bit ignorant too.
funny…everyone a liberal dis agrees with is racist, homo-phobe, radical, wrong, narrow- minded or something negative. Rarely will you find a liberal willing to just dis-agree. I believe it is because most are way to small to admit when they are wrong.
Hey s, you might as well stop. The blame game will be played forever. Especially when you consider that this “teacher” will continue to keep hate alive
Thanks to the very man he threw the shoe at, he IS alive. Just think if he had thrown that shoe at saddam. Like the Kurds, he’d be dead.
There is something to be said for freedom. France should thank an American everyday.
locked up at last, locked up at last! Thank God, oj is locked up at last! GUILTY!
You’re an enigma.

Steve, you are about as bright as a burnt out light bulb…..
Hey brilliant, you mis spelled “mis spelled”…..it is misspelled….one word asswipe…..
Let us use your own words to describe YOU:
Guess you are lacking intelligence and are a bit ignorant too.
Well let us use your words to describe conservatives, steve…(with a few changes of course..)
“…everyone a CONSERVATIVE AGREES with is racist, homo-phobe, radical, wrong, narrow- minded or something negative…..”
Hey! this is the very definition of conservatives of your ilk, Steve! Let’s go to your words again….with some changes of course…
“…Rarely will you find a CONSERVATIVE willing to just disagree. I believe it is because most are way too small to admit when they are wrong….”
I never met a conservative who was SELF RIGHTEOUS, and think that they are GOD’S CHOSEN…..when in fact, they are narrow minded ignoramouses like you steve……..ever thought WHY america REJECTED conservatives during the elections?
Someone should put a LOCK on your mouth…..
Why African Men in Diaspora Go Home to marry
There is no readily available data from the US State Department as to the number of Africans who join their spouse, fiancé or fiancée in the United States every year. From private conversation and observation, about three thousand Africans make such a journey on a yearly basis. Of this, some seventy percent are from English-speaking Africa, and roughly eighty percent of these claim to be Christians. Of those who engage in such rituals, more than ninety-five percent are men.
The immigration process can be trying, and costs lots of money, resourcefulness and perseverance! But why do African men go through this tortuous immigration process? Why do African men go home to marry instead of marrying the women they’ve wined and dined and romanced right here in the US. Most women in the US are well-educated, well-read, well-travelled; well mannered and have, in most cases, proven their trustworthiness. They are women of two worlds: they know Africa and also understand the West.
In spite of their advantages and pluses, the vast majority of these women are very likely to lose their boyfriends to women back home. But really, why do African men go home to marry the “unknowns” instead of marrying the proven and the reliable here in the US? Anyone who has lived in the United States for a good number of years can easily attest to the fact this is not an easy country to live in. It is a very individualistic and very challenging society and is at a variance with agrarian societies like ours.
Well, granted, a thousand men have a thousand different reasons for going home to marry, there are common threads as to why they do what they do: (1) because they can; (2) most men are under the illusion that the women they knew back home are innocent, un-spoilt and virgins; (3) it could be an ego-boosting exercise; (4) it allows some men to mask their failures and shortcomings since the women who are already in the US can tell where they are on the social and economic ladder. And then there those who will tell you African girls in the US have all “gone bad…rotten…too exposed…too independent.” And of course, there are the traditionalists who will never marry anyone outside of their ethnic group.
I am reminded of a friend in Seattle who once told me there was nothing else he could “teach” his girlfriend in terms of romance. She rocked his world in every way imaginable. In the end though, he went home to marry a “village girl.” She pretended for a while, but later proved to him that “everything a Yankee can do, a Naija woman can also do.” Shortly thereafter, he also realized he was her one-way ticket out of her misery and poverty in Nigeria.There are many more similar stories. I also know that the majority of such marriages start collapsing within two years. The American society has a way of Oprahlizing even a meek girl from Timbuktu or Aba.
When it is all said and done, the African male is perplexing. He can be enigmatic. He can be everything and sometimes, nothing. He can be sweet and loving and caring and benevolent and at the same time oppressive. His life is full of contradictions. In so many ways, he is a wounded animal as a result of his historical past. Once, he was the primary breadwinner, head of the household, the man who moved mountains and parted the heavens for rains.
The modern times have not been exactly good to him because of the multiplying effects of globalization and modernity. Even though the outside world is depriving him of his manhood, he has found a way to make part of his world and home his playground. In this playground, he is the sole captain. His words and wishes are law. Globalization and modernity may be creeping in on and chipping away at his manhood, but he has found a way to protect his playground, by marrying a ‘greenhorn.’
But you see life has a way of getting back at us. Sooner or later, Karma will come to play. Life is dynamic. Ever changing. Never static. Therefore, yesterday’s greenhorns will become the “ever-present and ever-knowing” of tomorrow. The innocents will lose the mist in their eyes and become like all the women that came before them. Though the preceding assertion is not empirically grounded, one can not but notice that “greenhorn marriages” dissolve quicker — mostly within five years with or without offspring.
More often than not, most of these marriages are not based on love or affection. Most are not even like the marriages of yester-years: a contract and a union between two families. On the part of the greenhorns, it is mostly about the need to escape the prevailing abject poverty and hopelessness that has engulfed most African countries. Most of these women wanted a way out of the misery in Kenya, Guinea, Liberia, and Eritrea and elsewhere.
In Nigeria, Cameroon, Mali, Madagascar and Mauritania, it is about running away from the fetid and stifling conditions that stunts dreams and kill optimism. Therefore, when presented with the opportunity to hop, they pack and run! It should be noted here and now that it is not all the women who come to join their husbands fit this profile. A good number come for the right reasons.
As for the men who go in search of these women, well, their mindset has been discussed. What needs to be added is the fact that most are never happy because they got what they never bargained for: stunned, disappointed and underachieving wives who never knew about 40-60-hour work week; women who never knew there are no dollar minting factories down the street, that America is not what they saw in the movies and magazines, that America is not a world of instant riches and glamour. You toil and toil and toil!
The unfamiliar can be mind-sapping, you know. These women see ghosts and dream of “bad-bad-bad-things.” Depression and identity crisis then sets in. Those who can’t cope then leave their husbands and marriage and try to go it alone believing their lots would be better without the “extra baggage.” Big mistake, for most!
As for the men, well, some will plead with, cajole or trick their wives into going into the nursing or CNA profession assuming the women were not already back home. The nursing profession, they believe, is a sure avenue for making money and living the good life. Be it in Houston, Seattle, Dallas, Miami, New York and every where in between, African nurses abound.
They are everywhere working mostly the night and graveyard shifts, toiling day and night and away from their husbands and children just to make ends meet. With no time to smell the roses or to wonder at the beauties that surround them, they become strangers in the world they live in.
It is a shame the way some African men in this country have treated and continue to treat some of our women. It is truly a shame!

Blowie! I’m impressed! as bright as a burnt out light bulb. How clever!!! I bet you are the brightest blow hard of all your friends…which doesn’t say much about your friends. keep up the good work!
now heres one for you to struggle with. Would it be more suitable to have used “burned-out” rather than burnt-out in your kind yet typical of a liberal perception of me?
Don’t worry, Jesus, our Lord still loves EVEN YOU!
I did that for you blowie! I may have just mis-spelled misspelled again. Sorry blowie.
Yes I do love being white! Blessed!
Changing words. That’s what you all are best at!
Thanks for admiting that you never met a conservative who was SELF RIGHTEOUS, and think they are GOD’S CHOSEN.
I am God’s child! I love God and I am promised a place in heaven with Him. How about you Blowie?
The land of Canaan. given to Abraham!
When Abram was ninety-nine years old the LORD appeared to Abram, and said to him, “I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless. And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly. Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations. No longer shall your name be Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come forth from you. And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you And I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God. As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I will bless him and make him fruitful and multiply him exceedingly; he shall be the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation. But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this season next year.”
I hate to point this out to CLander:
1) There are human rights lawyers of all nationalities, colors, blah blah blah. There are more white people involved with the issue because the cost is less. In the US and Europe you are not going to be arrested and shot in the head for handing out Free Mumia pamplets.
2) Christians have an obligation, not usually taken seriously, to visit those in jail. Please see Mathew 25:35,36
He said not I was sick and ye healed me; or in prison and ye set me free; but ye visited me and came unto me.”
In some sense Chirst was the first celeb political prisoner.
3) White people are fairly picky about who they want freed. (accused) Cop Killer Mumia yes, (non violent) Holocaust denier screwball neo nazi, no.
4) By most esthetic standards political prisoners are the best looking and best behaved. They are the easiest to like. Tattooed MS13 gang banger not so lovable (even though I suspect that lots of whites of both sexes would like to make love to him).
aaah steve, you did not get the meaning as to why I chose BURNT OUT instead of BURNED OUT…let me explain….BURNED OUT means that you can be re-lit, (as in having new ideas when old ideas do not work)…like re-lighting a candle..
whereas BURNT OUT implies that there is no chance of being re-lit…ever…you cannot re-light a light bulb.. (like the closed mindedness of conservatives like yourself)……holding on to the same old ideas no matter whatever dark places they take you (Iraq war, biggest spending spree of any president in our history, bailout money for private enterprise, creation of the largest DEBT in our country’s history, etc)….and keep believing and doing those same old ideas over and over….
Hmm…funny you bring up scriptures steve…..here’s one especially for you…
Proverbs 15:2….The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness…
You steve, are still pouring out foolishness with your so-called conservative beliefs….our downtrodden economy is a direct result of your so-called conservative beliefs as to how the US government is supposed to be run…..
If you are suggesting that the US should do more of the same stuff we’ve been doing these past 8 years, then this proverb is truly an accurate description of you, steve….
“…Don’t worry, Jesus, our Lord still loves EVEN YOU!…”
LOL….I already KNOW that Jesus loves me….but I am not sure that Jesus LOVES what’s in your HEART….do not make the IGNORANT mistake of believing that being a conservative=being a christian….
being a conservative=being a christian??..
NOT!
Unfortunately, you don’t get any white friends Derrick, because white people don’t yet believe that O.J. is a “political” prisoner. Being a gifted football player actually makes it harder to become a political prisoner because white people don’t believe that football players are political in any way, or even that they vote. If O.J. was a cricket player, perhaps from Iran, then he’d probably be a political prisoner automatically, so tell him to take up cricket, and maybe move to Iran.
This one seemed to miss the mark to me. Yeah, white people are sympathetic to political prisoners. On the other hand, so are all the other varieties of people. The histories of India and South Africa took radical turns for the better because political prisoners garnered enormous popular support. Generally speaking, white people were the least sympathetic group in each of those situations. Today more than a few nations in Asia or Africa see the biggest threat to authoritarian regimes coming from persecuted dissidents. The best pieces here tap into something both silly and placed distinctively in the culture of white America. Political prisoners are serious and universal.
apologies accepted…..LOL….
love of your skin color accepted…..LOL
NOT!!
All of us are God’s children….that does not distinguish you….
I guess if you get to heaven, you will see that God is NOT a white man, as you would believe……
Hope you change your ways before it’s too late!
I’m glad you know the book of Genesis steve…there may be hope for you yet!!!
THIS IS THE MOTHERSHIP PLEASE REPORT!! YOU BABBLE AND MISS THE HUMOR! OF COURSE i KNOW ALL WHITE PEOPLE ARE BAD AND EVERYONE ELSE IS GOOD!! WE GET IT!! YOU MY FRIEND ARE A CLOWN!! NOW GO BACK TO THE MOTHER SHIP IT WILL DROP YOU OFF IN THE 3RD WORLD WERE YOU CAN FEEL SUPERIOR!
for the love of god.
americans didn’t invent democracy. it is a very very old concept. there have been plenty of “free” societies in the past.
america is not the best nation in the universe.
i know it’s not completely your fault that you were brainwashed into thinking your home country is the best… but please don’t go around trying to show others how awesome you are for being an american!
ok bye bye!
“…There is something to be said for freedom. France should thank an American everyday….”
steve, for a person who loves America so much….you DON’T KNOW American history too well…re-read about the Revolutionary War…..
These United States should thank FRANCE everyday for being our supporters (with weaponry and troops) during the Revolutionary War…..without that support, there would not have been a USA…
Get off your high horse and educate yourself before you write…..
It’s NOT impossible to pick the wrong political prisoner! Picking a Cuban political prisoner is a minefield, even if the prisoner concerned is a writer kept in deplorable conditions and with an untreated medical condition. This will cause an embarrassed silence at dinner parties. It’s bad form to raise this issue; just ask Sean Penn.
poor poor cry babies
more likely than a liberal christain
oh, free speech????
so would you be a hypocrite then? Or can only black people or liberals have free speech? …you are what you are! so sad to be you!
Then I suppose we did thank them during WWII! And what is their grattitude now?? Read the history and the news yourself dip-stick!
you poor sap! you poor poor sap! but I don’t feel sorry for you. Drown in your own pathetic self pitty
I hate white liberal proffesors who hide in their liberal ivy towers!! I also hate their students who blindly rally around “political prisoners” political prisoners are only left wing! right wing politcal prisoners of course belong in jail! I love hippocrits !! liberal and smart are two words that should not be used in the same sentence!
Ramos and Compean are political prisoners of George Bush!
They’re Hispanic border patrol agents in California.
They were thrown in prison for shooting a known illegal alien drug smuggler in the butt as he was attempting to escape back to Mexico.
OOOOOOPS! I just picked the wrong political prisoner, I think. Liberals will tell me that the “illegal alien drug smuggler” was really just a poor, innocent, harmless, victimized “undocumented immigrant” coming here to “make a better life for his family.”
Darn. Now I’m going to get kicked out of polite white company again.
there’s no such thing as a ‘liberal christian’….nor is there any such thing as a ‘conservative christian’…..
People who claim to be either one of these are NOT christians at all…..and to prove my point, SOMEONE show me in the Bible where the words liberal or conservative is written….
Anyone who chooses to use these adjectives (liberal or conservative) in order to define themselves as christians are hypocrites…..they are using the word ‘christian’ in order to get political credibility (which is what liberals and conservatives are).
hey steve, which war occurred first, the Revolutionary War (late 18th Century) or World War II (mid 20th Century)??
…I would give you more of a hint, but you still would not get it because you cannot count!!…..nah, I’ll give your shallow mind a little hint….
Revolutionaries are losing war with British.
French, who are enemies with British, decides to help Revolutionaries with supplies and french soldiers to fight British.
Because of this crucial help, America gains independence from British….without this crucial help, there would not be an independent america.
And that is your short history lesson steve….GOT IT NOW DUMBA**??..
Steve, your stupidity is increasing with every statement you make….learn to do math, then read American history again (I recommend the children’s version (my version may still be too difficult a read for you) because I do believe that you don’t know the difference between WWII and the Revolutionary War!)
I guess freedom of speech must include ignorant statements under the guise of conservatism……thus your rants do qualify, steve….
and that is all you have to say steve???…..hmmm…and how did you come to the conclusion that i have self pity??…..I will tell you what i do have…..that is utter contempt for ignorance…..and you exhibit volumes of it…..
I guess you are one of those christians who never studied the Book, eh??…….that is the problem with people like you, who call themselves christian…..talk the talk but do not walk the walk!!… always talking about ‘self pity’ for others without realizing how pitiful they themselves are….with self-righteousness!!
You, steve, are a Pharisee!
Memo: January 22, 2009…..many political prisoners will be freed by President Obama……
don’t cry too hard conservative steve……hahahahahaha!
Like I said, drown in your own self pitty. No one or nothing is quite up to snuff with you. But from the outside looking in to you…you are just a pathetic sap! ’nuff said sap head!
you’re still quite pathetic. We accept you anyhow.
I’m promised a place in heaven. God did say I was created in His image.
God also said no one enters heaven except through His son Jesus. So you have to accept Jesus as your saviour to enter heaven. Once you do, you are promised a place. As am I. But you’ll have to leave all your garbage behind. No whining because you are black or not white or whatever you are whining about at the given time.
maybe it will be someone YOU love who one of the freed prisoners will murder! (if so, I’ll feel sympathy for you still)
Be happy. YOU want it, right?
it’s as easy AND possible for a christian to be liberal or conservative as it is for a christian to be black or white, tall or short, fat or skinny.
ARE YOU A COLLEGE PROFESSOR???? SEEM LIKE ONE!
Wow, you sure can’t seem to read with understanding!
You said “These United States should thank FRANCE everyday for being our supporters (with weaponry and troops) during the Revolutionary War…..without that support, there would not have been a USA”
So I said “Then I suppose we did thank them during WWII! And what is their grattitude now” So Mr. Brains, I am saying that our defending them in WWII is thanks for their help in the Revolutionary war. Get it???
So in terms you may understand when calling me stupid…I’m rubber and you, stupid lou, are glue! lol
give it up lou, common sense prevails over blind following of any liberal at the college level. any amount of years, any level.
One day, if you allow, your common sense will show you the truth.
Haven’t you heard?….we non-whites don’t worry about political prisoners attacking us…..It is people like you who should be worried….I’ve traveled the world (except Europe) and i’ve never worried about violence against me…..sort of a fringe benefit being non-white is that MOST OF THE WORLD’S population is non-white…….only white folk worry about freed political prisoners attacking and murdering them……Could it be that the worry is due to some wrongs that whites have done to them??….like, say, Guantanamo Bay…..or….enemy combatants??..
Ever heard of a former political prisoner, or terrorist, or whatever, coming into a black or hispanic neighborhood and blowing up its inhabitants?….or randomly shooting non-whites???…..NO..
Non-whites and hispanics have enough worries from getting shot by Red-neck american born whites!!…Why worry about an outside enemy when the enemy is right in our own country?
So steve, be happy. i do feel sympathy for you….afterall, a change that you’ve never experienced in your life will be a coming after January 21, 2009……get in the practice of calling that african american….MR. PRESIDENT…..
And don’t worry….Mr. Obama will not set free people that do not deserve freedom if they’d done A CRIME…..being political is NOT a crime in america, if you knew anything about american history…..
If you are a christian, then you would say that the Bible is your guide and authority as to how to live a christian life, right??
Well, if the Bible is your authority and guide, show me anywhere in the bible that there are liberal christians and conservative christians…I’ll make is easy for you, look in the New Testament (that will cut your search down to one third of the Bible….I can tell you for a FACT that there are no such people in the Old Testament)….
Liberal and conservative are POLITICAL DESIGNATIONS, thus if you say you are a conservative christian, you are saying that you believe in certain political leanings and at the same time claiming a SPIRITUAL leaning, which is opposite of your political leaning…
I will ask you a simple question: Do you believe in the Death Penalty?….If you say yes, then you are either not a christian OR you are a hypocrite!
Don’t let me point out scriptures that JESUS says about this subject steve…..christians should stick to what the BIBLE says, not what they personally believe….Proverbs 3:5-6….
You still don’t get it, do you steve?…..last time i read about WWII, it was the ALLIED TROOPS that liberated France, not the Americans ONLY…..
You are so pressed to be such a cowboy yahoo blue blooded white american that you miss the points even when they are sticking you in the eye!
common sense
noun
good sense and sound judgment in practical matters
You are so blinded by your so-called conservative, WHITE beliefs (BTW, there is no such thing as a SKIN COLOR belief system), that you lack good sense and sound judgement in the practical matters of JUST READING american history!
Sorry, but that dead white man’s american history is buried….this country was not built by only white males, thus you will have to get over that 1950s and before mentality as to ‘how america should be’ in your eyes……the day that thinking like you do died was November 4, 2008…..everytime the world looks at that man, they will KNOW that american history is NOT what has been projected to the world….a history of only dead white males……
It’s time for you to read about THE american history that involves some ‘color’ and some ‘females’, steve!….try it, and maybe you’ll learn that american history is much more deeper and unique than your limited mind could ever imagine!!
Boy, you ARE worthless. Being white or black never entered my thought process when I was concerned with A HUMAN being hurt. Clearly you show your racism. Nothing new there huh! I do feel sorry for your lousy ass.
By the way, I think ANY non-muslim or non-practicing muslim has to be concerned that he will be murdered JUST for being christian.
One more thing, if you are near the white man you seem NOT to mind being killed, you may just catch a fragment of a bomb yourself. Or maybe someone you love.
You are one of the most lame individual, racist, morons I have ever had the dis-pleasure of communicating with in 47 years.
I bet you live a lousy, self-pity life. In fact, I’m sure of it.
I do believe in the death penalty. I won’t be the judge of that. Also, as a christian, I do know I can be a liberal, conservative, or anything else. You see, God created me with FREE WILL! That’s right. YOUR understanding or lack of understanding means nothing to me.
By the way, in another blog, you are cool with whites being killed by freed prisoners. According to your own logic, you are not and cannot be a christian. But I already figured that out!
How do you feel about homosexuality? How about spreading the word of God in public schools? What parts of the bible do you think are correct and which do you think are not correct? I am very curious to hear your brilliance on that!
LOL….I must have touched a nerve in you stevie boy!!!…I see that the nerve was touched when I spoke the truth….Putting things into a perspective that the NON-WHITE is not the victim, but the WHITE is….well, it kinda put some heat under your cool ass, didn’t it??…..well it is what it is!!….LOL
…and I see that from your angry rants, you were too blinded by RAGE to see the foolishness you were writing….like the following:
“…I think ANY non-muslim or non-practicing muslim has to be concerned that he will be murdered JUST for being christian….”
I did not know that non-muslims or non-practicing muslims are automatically CHRISTIAN!….hmmm…this is a new one to me!
Secondly, how am i racist? I feel no superiority over whites….only stupid ones like yourself…..have you ever been outside the borders of the US stevie???…..I think not…..You know jack*** about the world outside of the US, except that garbage you see on FOX and Hanratty-ass……hell, I bet you’ve never dealt with too many non-whites period!…I can tell this by just how offended you are by my statements….
Oh…just for the record…..I am not self-pitying because people who feel self pity do not enrage people (Like I’ve done with you!)…..and finally, I am not living a lousy life….on the contrary, I get MUCH JOY exposing ignorant idiots like yourself to the light of day…..I can honestly say that I truly enjoyed every minute of giving you THE DIS-PLEASURE of communicating with me……and to imagine, I am the only one in your 47 years of communicating to do this to you!!!….It is an honor that i will truly treasure for all of a nano-second!!
Hmm….ok stevie….let’s go to the good book….You DO know what that is, right christian stevie???
Matthew 7:1-3…”1Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2) For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again…”
Yea, free will you do have, but I hope you can handle the consequences stevie!!…..It seems that you are a sunday christian….righteous on the Lord’s Day, and wrathful on the other six days, eh??
You speak about homosexuality….well the good book says that ALL SINS OF THE FLESH will send you to Hell….if you are a christian, you would know that in addition to homosexuality, fornication, adultery, bigamy, pre-marital sex, etc…are ALL EQUAL in terms of sins of the flesh….even lust of the eye is a sin….and I know you’ve looked at many a woman’s breasteses and/or ass in your 47 years that were NOT your wife’s, eh stevie??….Well if you had not gotten yourself right with God (and by what you’ve written so far, you have not), then you will be burning right there with the other sinners against the flesh that you are so anxious to condemn….
Remember?….Judge not, lest ye be judged stevie….
As for your spreading the word of God in public schools….the word of God may be true, but the spreaders of the word are the problem!!….If they say one thing (thou shalt not kill) but act contradictory to what they say (Death Penalty), then the so-called spreaders are viewed as HYPOCRITES……
Finally, I will tell you that I don’t believe that the Bible is contradictory WHEN READ AND UNDERSTOOD as a whole…it is extremely easy to take verses out of the Bible and use them to justify one’s point, BUT, when one understands the consistent theme of the whole Bible, which is as simple as this verse:
Mark 12:31…”Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these…”
then no one should have any problems with the teachings of the Bible….
well you certainly are a dumb ass. ..a self pitying, racist dumb ass. It shines through from you.
One day you will realize just what a dumb ass you are!
You know as well as I that IF any mis information or lies came from FOX news…a news channel that will NOT cater to the left, the left would be all over it like white on rice! lol …or black on crap
well, well, well…..look at stevie boy’s face turn BLOOD RED!!!… So now you regress to calling me a dumb ass…seems like you lost all semblance of your so-called CHRISTIANITY!!!
…LOL…
while i vehemently deny the names that you call me, I see that you are living up to what i originally said about you!!…that you are an ignorant idiot!….and a BIGOT too, no less!!!
I knew your true colors (or lack thereof) would come to the surface!….Listen to christian steve lash out….you sound MIGHTY christian-like Mr. steve!…..ya think God is pleased with your temperment right now??
And I really put some fire on your ass when i said that you’re a Fox channel watching, never been out of the country travelin’, never dealt with many non-whites in your life, ignorant idiot…
……the truth hurts, eh stevie?….
Next time, before you want to talk that bull**** you’ve been passing as ‘righteous’, first sit down and read (educate yourself), then go do some traveling out of the country so you’ll find out that there is more to the world than your rinky dink corner, open up the Bible AND ACTUALLY READ IT sometime, and finally, let go of your latent anger against people who are not like you…..
You were easy to reel in, steve…..re-read what you wrote, christian man!…..hypocrites have a tendency to get mad rather easily when they are caught in their own hypocrisy!!
Which nation is the best, then?
I’m Australian. I personally think that America is the best nation to have ever existed. Modern civilization simply would not exist as we know it without America, simple as that.
you are dumb
An intriguing bit is that well, some white people actually like things of a nature you know nothing of. Some White people actually love their people, and some white people will end up fighting for it. I can’t help but laugh at the racism your blog possess’ and the fact that one day, you will shed tears of sadness at your own faults, or not. Either way, there’s a movement for a White Ethno-state in the Pacific Northwest; check it out. nwhomeland.blogspot.com
You ignorant mongrol. Blacks and hispanics have been mowing each other down in their own neighborhoods for my entire life. . . Without being political prisoners. Take you and all your non- white brood back to where you originated from and dont breed. . . god damn mooly.
Forget just the pacific north west. . . It’s just not enough. I say we push all the scum to mexico and put all the blacks in camps. . .HELL in fact forget it lets put them all in camps and have ourselves a good old holocaust. Start with our friend Obama. He’s as useless as the last prez.
Well well well……another stupid asswipe spewing asswipe stupid opinions!!!….and I guess your name is indicative of your personal habits, eh fukkstikk??
Why don’t you voice your opinions to a few blacks and/or hispanics and see how fast your hillbilly ass gets beat down!! Dumbass rednecks like you should go back to the backmountains whence you came….
BTW, some of my “non-white brood” took over the WHITE HOUSE, fukk-yourselfwitha-skikk!!!….so that means that your white ass will have to call one of my ‘non-white brood’ PRESIDENT…..practice saying it, because you will have 4 years to get it right……that will be enough time for your stupid ass to graduate from first to second grade…….
We ignorant mongols are in the most powerful position in the USA….THE MOOLYS have taken over the President’s House…..and you cannot do nothin about it……except to kiss my mooly ass……
you hillbilly asswipe…..
Big talk coming from someone who can’t spell “hypocrite.”
I think you meant to say Do Not want to know ANYTHING about. You see, to say “do not want to know nothing about” is a double negative meaning do want to know something about. After reading some of your “work” it is obvious you want to give positive thoughts to no one on the right. Maybe even no one other than your self. You are such a pin-head! lol
No, pin-head, I’m not at all mad. I was only stating fact. You….pin-head…are a dumb ass! plain and simple…much like your mind. You WANT to be smart, but you are just a pin-head!
Now, to be a christian does not mean one is or has to be perfect. You see, pin-head louie, only ONE man walked the earth sin-less. He was Jesus Christ. I WANT to be more like him, but it’s even more difficult with people like you, who seem to enjoy doing the devils work by doing the devils work for him!
Yes I’ve read much of the bible. My favorite verse is Romans 8:28. (you can find Romans in the New Testament between Acts and Corinthians) I also very much recommend you read the book of Revelations. This will teach you about the end times. Did you know that the only way to heaven is to accept Jesus Christ as your saviour? Did you know that your time in hell will be eternity and there will be gnashing of teeth and moaning?
I also like the book of Mark. Read Matthew 6:5-15. It will teach you how to pray. Ya know, if you pray with belief, you will receive! Sweet! That one is not verbatim, but you can find it in Mark 11:24.
Oh, I’ve been to two countries other than the great one I live in. I don’t see where it matters other than you like to try and brag on yourself. (I think you are a legend in your own mind)
I deal with non-whites on a daily basis. Fortunately, not many are pin-heads such as yourself. Shawn Hannity and Bill O’Reilly RULE!!! I LOVE them!
Lastly, I bet you are really excited about our next president.
I am too! He’s 50% White American, 50% African, and 0% African-American…which is an American of African decent. But I bet you already knew that. BAM!!!
I guess maybe you don’t. You all kill each other daily.
Uh, louie….you TRY to live a better life. You do NOT go out and deliberately commit and live the same sin. You do not call yourself a pastor and preach homosexuality is okay in the eyes of God. You do not go to hell once you have accepted Jesus as your saviour…SAVIOUR FROM going to hell!
And how does louie feel about teaching pro-choice, pro-homosexuality, pro-teen sex in the schools? They ok but the bible is not?
And yet France and much of the world has little regard for the “allied” forces that saved her.
I am a PROUD blue blooded American. Unlike Michelle, I always have been. Regardless of who was in the oval office. Even when Bill and Monica were in the oval office!
I never mentioned a skin color belief system but I am quite sure there IS such a thing. Some people refer to it as racism. I think you are racist!
On November 8th, a 50% white man, 50% African, 0% African-American will take office. I am proud. He IS as much white-American as he is African. He is none louie. See, you are an American of African descent(afro-american, african-american). Obama is MAYBE American. His mother was American, his father was African. He is half white and like you really WANT to be, I AM proud of his american heritage. Of course there is that question of whether he was actually born in Hawaii or in Africa. Who knows!
Uh dumbass steve, let me give you another lesson…
President Obama IS AFRICAN AMERICAN
Father is from Kenya: AFRICAN
Mother is from Kansas: AMERICAN
Put them together dumbass steve and you will have to say that Mr. Obama is AFRICAN AMERICAN
Got it, idiot?
PS: It is nice that you can FIND scriptures in the Bible stevie… but it’s too bad that you don’t live ANY OF THE SCRIPTURES that you claim to read!!……You say that you want to walk like Jesus, eh??……show me in the Bible where Jesus calls people the names you are calling??….real christian-like …
Looks like your hypocrisy is showing stevie….
Stevie, let it go…..you don’t have to lie to me about your travels and your dealing with non-whites….it’s OK…..You already have exhibited your TRUE NATURE with your comment, “Hannity and O’really rule”….
Your words were spoken like a true intellectual……..more like intellectual midget!!….
As usual steve, you MISSED THE POINT altogether!…..where in the Bible were the sins of the flesh RANKED??….You and your kind have this obsession with homosexuality, yet you do not look at infidelity with equal contempt…..oh, it’s OK to screw your neighbor’s wife…as long as it’s not YOUR OWN wife screwing her!…Sins of the flesh are all the same….SINS….
As for your belief that you will not go to Hell once you have accepted Jesus as your savior….John 3:16 states:
“..For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him SHOULD not perish, but have everlasting life….”
the key word that most christians miss is the word SHOULD…
should | sh oŏd|
-used to indicate what is probable
-formal expressing the conditional mood
‘Should’ means that you can be saved AND THEN LOSE IT by backsliding, whereas SHALL has a whole different meaning:
shall | sh al|
-expressing a strong assertion or intention
-expressing an instruction or command
Shall mean that once you are saved, you are saved no matter what…..
UNFORTUNATELY for your beliefs, John 3:16 in the King James Version says ‘should’, and not ‘shall’….which means that it is one thing to accept Jesus as your savior, BUT, if your actions are not Jesus-like (love thy neighbor as thyself), then you will NOT get into heaven…it’s called falling into a reprobate mind…
…there are several examples in the Bible of this…most notably, Judas, who DID BELIEVE in Jesus and was there to witness most of Jesus’ miracles….BUT that did not stop him from having a reprobate mind (doing what HE wanted to do against the teachings of Jesus)….
As for pro-choice, I say that it is what it is….the WOMAN’S choice….she will have to answer for whatever she does in the afterlife (if you believe in the afterlife), and unless the pro-lifers are going to actively help that woman in her time of need (which they usually do not), then it is NONE OF THEIR business as to what the woman does with HER body…
Pro-teen sex in schools??…..Teen sex has NEVER, EVER been stopped by any-one, any government, and especially any church IN THE HISTORY OF MAN…..teens are gonna do it if they wanna do it…..All we can do is to educate them about sexuality so if they choose to do it anyway, they will at least have some responsibility (knowing about sexuality)……Most teen sex and pregnancies occur without the teens thinking about and/or not understanding what the long term consequences are.
….”.God said don’t do it!” just does not cut it..
Michelle Obama had GOOD REASON to not be proud to be an american ALL THE TIME like you, steve…..It is called “american history of racial discrimination”……her father was in the military and what did he get for his fighting for the USA?….greetings with rampant discrimination against him from bigots and racists who only looked at the color of his skin, and NOT his record for fighting for their freedom…..
Who in their right mind would be proud of fighting for to keep freedom for a country of bigots??
I mentioned that there is no such thing as a skin color belief system because YOU said that you are proud to be WHITE…to be proud of your skin color is to be proud of what your skin color represents, thus you have a belief system based on your skin color! You will not admit to this, but it is obvious to non-whites that we are the only ones who hear whites say this!.. Whites dealing with whites would say that they are irish american, or italian american, but when these same people encounter non-white people, suddenly they tell us that they are WHITE people!!….and in american history, we non-whites KNOW what that means….
Finally, let us get something straight about Obama….he calls himself a BLACK MAN….and he has reason to….
BEFORE ELECTION: Obama was a black/african american candidate
AFTER ELECTION: Obama is SUDDENLY known as half white/half black….
Well according to american law, if you have 1/32 blood of black in your blood, then you are catagorized as BLACK….period!… It is no use for you white folk to try and claim Mr. Obama now that he occupies the most powerful position in the world….
….the only ‘white skin’ you see on Obama is on the soles of his feet and the palms of his hands…..
Daddy: from Kenya: AFRICAN
Mother: from Kansas: AMERICAN
OFFSPRING: Obama: AFRICAN AMERICAN…..
CASE CLOSED on this race subject…
Your whole statement sucks. Everything you are saying makes you sound like Jerry Fallwell. eck. Scary ass shit that we have people roaming around the USA thinking the thoughts you have shared here. You would never have the balls to state this type of shit outloud in front of people. You are a coward.
so are you saying african immigrant females are political prisoners? More like socio-economic ones!
the US never backed France when they had their civil war, so why should France thank us? They hate our guts because of the civil war..Why do you think? if you helped me out when I was in need, but then when you needed help back I said…”sorry! too busy right now!” wouldn’t you be pissed too?
Poor Marie Antoinette. Died because of her stupid husband. She’s the real political prisoner! ;p
Louie you should stuff it. you’re every bit the bigot that Steve supposedly is. Making a point by being a condescending race baiter is pretty unintelligent there doofus
You all kill each other daily ALSO, stevie….so what’s your point?
FryMumia….ask me if I care ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK……If you feel that i am a condescending race baiter, then all i have to say is…..SO WHAT?!…..you should not have read it in the first place..
By you stating that I am being condescending indicates to me that YOU just do not like what I am saying….and guess what?
…I don’t give a rats ass…..
Just because what i write is not in agreement to what you think does NOT MAKE what I write unintelligent….it makes it DISAGREEABLE with you….and do i care about your disagreeable state of mind?….Not in the least….
If you feel I’ve baited your ‘race’, then I’ve done a good job writing….because people of YOUR KIND of mentality NEEDS TO BE BAITED…..Dumbasses who call themselves ‘FryMumia’ are not intelligent enough to see the irony of what I just said….
race baiter???…..LOL….
Ya care enough about what I think to make a hilarious
response! I’d say YOU’RE pretty easily baited Einstien!
Louie, you should quit kidding yourself and just marry the
guy! But yes you sure ARE smart and an intellectual!
White ethno-state in the Pacific Northwest, eh??……uh….ok…
In America, some things don’t change…..is this 1959 or 2009?….
If you state ignorant comments to me, I will correct them EVERY TIME….
there is NO HUMOR in ignorance…..
hey fryMumia, here is something for you to see…..
It reminds me of all those shootings of blacks in Phili back during the time of the Mumia incident….the only difference is that Phili cops dirty deeds were NOT caught on tape!!
I’d say YOU must be the coward. I have other liberal friends who try to deny God as well. I will tell you, plinko, as I tell them…God STILL loves you. He is just waiting for you. I hope you don’t wait too late!
Why do you seem to be so filled with hatred anyhow? Surround yourself with nicer, happier minded people and you will fiind yourself feeling better regardless of liberals trying to deny God and all of the love He stands for! I promise. HE promises!
best blog evah!!
lolz at fools arguing about stupid shit white people like!
You just don’t get it blowie! Neither Christians nor anyone else can possibly be sinless! I, as a christian, WANT to be more Christ-like. I AM promised a place in heaven. I know this and God knows this. Do you know where YOU will go when you die? Too late to change AFTER you die.
Like Plinko, you sure are filled with hatred! Guess it’s the devil FREELY working his work through you.
The african americans will tell you…they are of african slave descent. Born in America. African-american. Black American of African descent! Not half white american and half black kenyan. For such a narrow-minded boy, you sure have a thick head!
Here ya go louie. done in YOUR style from Websters Dictionary:Af⋅ri⋅can-A⋅mer⋅i⋅can /ˈæfrɪkənəˈmɛrɪkən/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [af-ri-kuhn-uh-mer-i-kuhn] Show IPA Pronunciation

Christian is a person who believes in Jesus Christ; adherent of Christianity.
A Christian is NOT sinless. A Christian loves Jesus Christ and would want to be like him. But as I tried to tell you before…NO ONE is sinless. Only Jesus ever was so that he could die in our place! So that we may go to heaven.
Try hard to get it louie. Try. You must try not to be so narrow-minded.
You and plinko are so full of hatred! I try to not let the devil work on me through you. Such a task though!
Poor louie. YOU don’t get it. AT ALL. Keep up the devils work! See where HE puts you!
You are very very narrow-minded. I don’t claim obama. I only claim my own children. I do recognize he is 50% white american and 50% african since I saw his story and HIS own commercial proudly showing that to the world! He IS proud of his white heritage. What his white mother did for him. How is white grand-parents helped him. I’m sure he got some intelligence from his dad too. Too bad his dad split on him. Sound familiar?Personally I think he is a liar. I think he tells whatever story to whatever group as he feels he needs to.
Wow, didn’t read the whole article, but it was like a key in a lock when I read….
Most white folks are basically ok with jail if there were decent toilets and plenty to read and no rape.
That comment hits real uncomfortably close to home for me. I never get enough time to read… and well if I had 3 square meals a day, comfy bed, everything I always meant to read nearby… Oh and no rape.
I guess it stems from the fact I hate to work. Oh I have a good job and I my family is in the top 85% of income in America, but… I just don’t feel cut out for this work thing. I have to do very little from day to day and I get to boss people around, and sometimes my boss is a jerk, but mostly I’m left alone and I do my job well.
But, let me not work and read all day, give me a good computer and the latest games, good snackies in the fridge. I don’t think I could call that prison. Just a few tweeks to prison and man, that would be just great.
I’m really kind of prodded in to thinking how much I hate to work when someone says “You would like THIS if you could have it”. Yeah I guess I would.
there is no such thing as ‘white heritage’…
If you state ignorant comments to me, I will correct them EVERY TIME….
there is NO HUMOR in ignorance…..
This blog is for fun. Everyone calm down, if we can start laughing at ourselves (and this stuff can be completely funny) we will all be in a better place. It never hurts to re-evaluate one’s lifestyle. Just because your choices may seem ridiculous to another: person, culture or group, are you unable to learn from others? If someone is offended by your speech, it may be helpful to think about it rather than to attack in such a nasty manner. No one expects any person to be perfect (Christian or not), but why continue to be so rude and ignorant (which you know is not “Christ-like”). It is pride, and I don’t claim to be perfect either, but why does it upset you so much that someone would call you a hypocrite. We are all Hypocrites, and we always need to re-evaluate where we are and make corrections. Calm down and think about why this bothers you so much, and ask for God to help you grow in this area. You can be a liberal Christian! Christ was not legalistic, he was very generous in dealing with people. And there are Christians in many other countries, they live differently from us. Many Americans cannot separate their cultural values from their moral values. God is not a Republican or a Democrat, so why have so many let one party take credit for being “moral.” This is a lie. God said for us to not add or take away from his word, by mixing politics and religion you add (along w/ mr Hannity, Mr. Beck or some guru of the religious right).
-Liberal Christian White Girl (feel free to attack)
Damned are you dumb.
Temper, temper, live up to to your name, cool cat. You’re just talking to some white trailer trash who will get a DUI going to the next NASCAR race.
This one’s a bit unfair. I’m as white as white can be (typical Scotsman) but I can’t stand political prisoners. Why should I give a damn about them? I refer you to the infallible universal law of “where there’s smoke there’s fire”. I mean, if they were so cool then why are they in jail? They must be criminals, criminals are all bad, therefore all political prisoners are bad. QED.
Who the hell are you talking to, and what the hell are you saying? Show some class, dumb ass.
Just an FYI – Mumia Abu Jamal is no “political prisoner” hes a cop killer.
mistakes were made.
Have to agree.
Political prisoner = compasion.
Cold blooded cop Killer = lethal injection!!!!!
use a more appropriate pic next time.
Really guy? I’ve never heard of people having the latest games and “snackies” in prison (minus anyone at “Cupcake” like Martha Stewart). And I don’t think you got the gist of the article- it’s funny you write your own which has nothing to do with it…
Yes. Gosh, if they’d just NOT been fighting. If he’d been doing any other thing…like maybe home with his daughter. This accident would never have happened and his daughter would have her daddy or at least her father would still be alive.
the first mistake was the fight on the train.
That’s good correcting. It’s very White of you.
Fighting on the train is good reason to cold bloodedly shoot someone an unarmed person in the back?
….to shoot someone laying on his stomach with hands cuffed behind his back and one cop with his knee on the guy’s neck, all the while surrounded by cops…..
People like you Andrew are asswipes to the umpetieth degree…
Look at the video again….
If only more smart people would direct their energies towards comedy instead of hedge funds and mortgage-backed securities, the Comedy channel would already be in HD, and my 401k wouldn’t have lost 40% this year.
There’s no slack
for the black….
Mumia is a murderous thug, a cop-killer not a so-called “political prisoner”.
You really got the joke in this article didn’t you? 😉
Oh, CRY me a river! You could go there and burn a business or pick a fight yourself to solve the prob. OR you could go preach to the dumb &(*^% not to fight, stay home wit his baby.
and ya REALLY think the gun was fired on purpose? Probably the cops should just stay outta there altogether. let it take care of itself.
He’s in jail, so what’s your point?
“…ya REALLY think the gun was fired on purpose?…”
hmmmm…..he rises up and pull his gun out and shoots a man laying on his stomach with handcuffs on…..
“…ya REALLY think the gun was fired on purpose?…”
So he’s in jail, so what’s your point?
Extrajudicial execution videotaped and in front of many citizens….ENDORSED by Andrew because
“…if they’d just NOT been fighting. If he’d been doing any other thing…like maybe home with his daughter….”
For fighting, you get the death penalty…..white folk cannot wait for trials anymore…just kill’em on the spot and save court costs!
you, Andrew, are an example of humanity’s WEAKEST LINK…
His point (and my point) is that Mumia should have been sent to the chair years ago. Why have good tax dollars been spent keeping this swine alive?
Like Mumia, Mandela is a cold-blooded murderer. Read any objective account of his life for more details. Mandela is a master con man who has used misplaced white guilt to put millions of dollars in his pocket
Murder, for starters
the same reason people like the ‘green river’ serial murderer is still alive and in jail…..
Kill a white cop and you get the death penalty…
Kill 55 women and you get life in prison….
Get over your ‘good tax dollars’ diatiribe…..Mumia is in jail, so be happy with that…..
but plenty “by”
ok, ok, you think I’m weak, but he’s STILL dead! His daughter is still without a father. Not sure if he actually WAS really in her little life, but he sure isn’t now. So keep on blaming. Whether you think it was purposeful or not, (leave that up to your intelligence or lack there of) if he had been HOME with his family and NOT fighting on a train, he would be ALIVE! dig it? All excuses aside(if you are capable of that)?
Hey luieo, that dude coming to da white house is half that(white american) and half negro african. NONE of him is african american as the definition fits YOU! lmao! HIS “brood” makes something of himself. YOUR brood whines and complains and adds to the problems of us all as a whole. Which in turn destroys us as a whole rather than heals us and enables us to move forward as a whole.
BTW how’d you like Obama exploiting his “white” ness in his campaign commercials. Remember him showing his white mom and white grandparents? He might do ok afterall!
He IS backpeddling on closing Guantanamo Bay a bit. Oh, that’s right, YOU don’t worry about this because YOU think only whites will be killed and that don’t bother you right??
Well, I never paid much attention to color there, but were there NO blacks, coloreds, negroes, hispanics, asians killed on Sept. 11????? You are such an ignorant person trying desperately to succesfullly act intelligent.
I don’t have college level intelligence(which if that means having YOUR mentallity, I am thankful) I do have commonsense and I to agree with “true law, nature’s law.”
Andrew, you are BLAMING the VICTIM…..what about the murderer?
Finally, six days after the shooting, the guy was arrested and charged with murder…..It looks like he will NOT see his family again, and for good reason….
Got any excuses for the murderer, Andrew?
Sorry steve, but your lack of intelligence is showing…I never said that non-whites were not killed in 9/11…..I never mentioned 9/11….
as for Obama exploiting his ‘whiteness’….it cannot be done in america unless he LOOKS the part….Obama does NOT look white, so how can he exploit what does not exist?…Having white relatives has never helped any non-white skinned person in America in politics……you are giving ‘white skin’ too much credit..
as for Guantanamo Bay, Obama will close it…that is what he said…he did not put a date or deadline on it….
Finally, as for your diatribe about Obama is not like an african american as myself…..well, what do you know about me, steve?….You know that i am not white, you know that i am educated (college level education-your words….which is true)…
….and guess what?….I went to all white universities!… SURPRISE!…..the Univ. Of Maryland undergrad, and the George Washington Univ. graduate…..so, I KNOW white folks!
LOL……thus, i am, in more ways than you know, like Obama!
LMAO.
>> “His point (and my point) is that Mumia should have been sent to the chair years ago. Why have good tax dollars been spent keeping this swine alive?”
It actually costs the justice system more to execute someone than to keep them in prison for life.
Just sayin’
Ok, Ok, louie. But he is STILL dead. He STILL would be alive if he’d been home with his baby instead of fighting on a train. YOU ARE SO FRIGGIN IGNORANTLY BLINDED BY SOMETHING YOU WANT TO PERCEIVE AS A WHITIE KILLING A BLACKIE THAT YOU CANNOT SEE THE PLAIN, EASY, OBVIOUS, AND “RIGHT THING TO DO”……MAKE…A…BETTER…CHOICE…FOR…THIS…VERY…DAY…IN…YOUR…LIFE…BECAUSE…IT…C-O-U-L-D…BE…YOUR…L-A-S-T DAY ON EARTH!!! GET IT LOUIE????
of course not, you will come back with another blame, excuse, blah blah blah. But hey, keep preaching blame, hate, revenge and the rest.
Oh I won’t cry blowie. I’m sure if one sets out to kill thousands…depending on the city… a few will be black too. I’ll feel bad for them all but I’ll also remember the words of idiots such as yourself: …let them free…they will only be killing the whites…
If Obama is anything like you, America is doomed and Obama is too. I believe Obama is much more of a man than you. Heck, a homeless wino on the street is much more of a man than you.
I’d say sociopath nailed it for a description of you.
not so much a point. I, unlike you, inherently DO NOT want people to kill people.
Geeze, I can see your 750 word response to this already! carry on dufass.
I can do it for much less.
tsk tsk tsk….Andrew…..let us say, for the sake of peace, that all that you say is correct…..so what is left??
The cop cold bloodedly killed a human being.
Murder is murder. He has to answer for it.
Period.
I, like you, inherently do not want people to kill people…
so what’s your point?
thank yah…thank yah verry muuuch….
LOL
when i look down from heaven, i’ll ask God to give you a cool glass of water….
LOL..
Stop the hating people and a joint and a beer on me.

WATCH THIS
Cannonball that is the dumbest logic I’ve heard in a while. Mandela was a dirty blood thirsty criminal huh? Sometimes laws are unjust and perhaps should be disobeyed (Nazi Germany or Apartheid or Jim Crow Laws) Unless you are being ironic it is unfortunate people think the way you do.
Then you should be jailed.

Well, louie, I say YOU are the weakest link. I blamed no one. Obviously you cannot get it. That still leaves what I said true.
UNLIKE YOU, I have no excuses for the murderer. I merely TRIED to point out to you that perhaps if you directed your energy to another direction with the fervor you direct it toward racism, blame, hatred and the rest..then you MIGHT just be responsible for bringing families and races ..for starters.. together.
Spread the love and not the hate. You might even feel warm and fuzzy inside!!!
The cop cold bloodedly killed a human being.
Murder is murder. He has to answer for it.
Period.
PS: Andrew is STILL making excuses for the murderer, who happens to be white and the victim happens to be black…had this been a white on white crime, there would be no controversy because that cop would have been tried and convicted by now…
Sorry Andrew, but it is what it is…..I would have believed your warm and fuzzy story that race and blame, and hate, etc was NOT part of this sad story had they arrested the perpetrator immediately after seeing the video..
BUT…
They arrested him six days later…thus, I have reason to believe that all that i’ve stated is true…..including that you are STILL HUMANITY’S WEAKEST LINK for trying to defend the indefensible.
poor louie, just CANNOT read with understanding. ALWAYS trying to put blame and spin on everything. Surely you can find a friend who is just the tinyest amount more intelligent than yourself to help explain that my words placed blame on no one. My words DID speak to prevention and family. They spoke to choices. The boy fighting made a deadly choice. The cop made a deadly choice. Either way, IF the boy had been at home or doing something constructive or positive such as say…reading a bedtime story to his daughter…he’d be alive, she’d have a daughter.
Oh, but that’s right..louie would have had to find something else negative to harp on. Maybe louie should put his energy into his own family and hug his mommy or daddy or child or wife and quit spending so much energy finding people and acts to pass blame upon.
Fat chance huh lou.
as i said before,
The cop cold bloodedly killed a human being.
Murder is murder. He has to answer for it.
JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED.
Period.
poor louie, all about race. Keep racism alive, louie, keep it alive.
Oh, and justice delayed is justice denied??
Hmmmm That’s a new one. Is that liberalism 101? Your way or wrong???
Poor poor louie. Stuck in a quagmire of pity, hate, blame, and racism
Suffer punk!
why world is like this…? hhmm.. maybe even in the bible there are also prisoners.. tsk tsk… ’til now…
Fuck you man. Fucking racist piece of shit. That post really showed ur true colors and what think of others’
Racism- a doctrine or teaching, without scientific support, that claims to find racial differences in character, intelligence, etc., THAT ASSERTS THE SUPERIORITY OF ONE RACE OVER ANOTHER, AND SEEKS TO MAINTAIN THE SUPPOSED PURITY OF A RACE
since whites are the majority in the US, and it is white people who wrote the laws, thus, it is white people who are RACISTS against non-whites…
Blacks who are racists are the ones who believe that white people are superior to black people….example: Clarence Thomas
Now, black can be bigots…
bigotry |ˈbigətrē| noun intolerance toward those who hold different opinions from oneself
But white people have the monopoly on racism in the US…
louie boy, your character, through your words, CLEARLY say you would love to see ANY if not ALL white people killed. I think many many many people likend to you would like that too. Comeone louie boy, be honest. Wouldn’t ya love to see a white massacre?
You don’t want equality, you want innaliation of and domination over whites don’t you.
Good thing our new president is only 50% white or else you’d hate him too. Wait, if he had run as a republican would you have voted for him?
no prob. it’s the MOST I could do your you.
for you.
racism
1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one’s own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.
Now louie, given the ENTIRE definition and looking at much of your “work”…I’d say YOU are the racist. Not “white people” and not our system of government. You CLEARLY hate AND are intolerant of whitie.
btw, did you see barrack and michelle TRYING to dance at the ball with Ill. and Hiwaii? You can sure tell he’s half white! lol.
It came straight out of Websters Dictionary 9th Edition, steve..
BTW, I am intolerant only of those who think that their white skin makes a ‘heritage’ or ‘culture’…..
If you are not in these catagories, then you need not fear my intolerance.
I only have issues with people who seem to think that their white skin makes a ‘culture’ or ‘heritage’…..
People who think like this are inherently racist because their beliefs are based in their RACE….now if you fit this description, steve, then i understand why you think i am so relentless with my points….
Other than this, I can tell you that some of my best friends are white people….
Obama’s a black man, he is your president and you racist are going to like it. Hahaha. Malcohm X will be the next national holiday. LOL, Obama’s face will now get carved into Mt Rushmore. We dont need 40 acres and a mule anymore, we will settle for 50 states and a white house. LOL
First louio, there is nothing about you that I fear. In my opinion, you are a very little boy. Second, your words”BTW, I am intolerant only of those who think that their white skin makes a ‘heritage’ or ‘culture’…..” oooze of racism.
Whine on boy
justice denied…..like o.j. killing his wife and ron?
I’m calling you a liar
well if you believe that white skin makes a ‘white heritage’ or ‘white culture’……if the shoe fits you….
then wear it.
You have not denied being a racist anyway…..you do what is expected of racists, and now i can see that….
whine on boy?…..
whatever………….
I am going to try an experiment:
I am a racist.
whatever…….
louie, if you EVER come to your senses and drop that liberal, blame, racist baggage you tote with you, I promise you will be so happy! ….like me!!!!!
whatever…….
hey! someone beat me to it……
whatever…
whatever…..
😉
louie??? you ok?? whatever whatever whatever..sounds like you may have some distracting personal problem. Hope everything is ok.
Reminds me of the celebrations when Mugabe took over Zimbabwe. That turned out well didn’t it?
reminds me of the celebrations when Miloslevic took over serbia. It turned out well didn’t it?
silly white man, history is for everyone!
The Serbs lost a war against the most powerful military force in the world and had to cope with multiple armed secessionist militias and yet still the people of Serbia are healthy, cultured, well fed, literate, educated and affluent. Mugabe won his war against the Whites and had no subsequent multifaceted civil war to cope with, and his people are living on cowshit and boiled animal hides. Anymore brilliant “historical” examples genius?
How small do these boxes get?
lmao
Never so small that they can’t comfortably contain louiecoolgato’s wee mind.
charlie, you are RIGHT. This Louie “I can’t be a racist, I’m black” Coolgato doesn’t seem comfortable unless he’s a victim!
And that’s the worst kind of racist, the one who sees the problem as everybody but themselves.
James, it looks like you forgot what you said before uh huh’s response….
“Reminds me of the CELEBRATIONS when Mugabe took over Zimbabwe.”
uh huh replied in the same vein, with emphasis on ‘CELEBRATIONS’…
Both regimes ‘celebrated’ when they both did dirty deeds to their own people….the serbs claiming lands of their neighbors, and Mugabe claiming lands from the whites….
If you want to be understood, make your points more clearly. One sentence does not maketh a historical example (uh huh & james)…
whatever…
so what’s your point?
Actually he’s half black, half white.
actually, he’s african american.
daddy=kenya=african
mommy=kansas=american
offspring=barack obama=african american.
US race laws goes like this:
white daddy+white momma=white baby
white daddy+black momma=black baby
white momma+black daddy=black baby
white person+ANY NON-WHIT PERSON=non-white baby.
racist laws in the US are messed up.
PS: there’s no check off on the US Census for half/white half/black. Either you’re white, or you are ‘other’, as in non-white.
Kind of white folks way of keeping their race ‘pure’.
Hi louie! Uh Huh just made a shit analogy because of his total ignorance of history and low intelligence, that’s all. He’s now found his natural level and is bouncing around the threads calling me a faggot and pathetically threatening to punch out my teeth from the safety of his keyboard. Total tard, sad really.
Louie, if you think that white people have a monopoly on racism in the US, you’re a fool and a bigot yourself. On top of what should be clear, (that some blacks are undoubtedly racist towards whites) nobody has even taken into account the racism that exists between minorities. Here’s an example I am familiar with: some surveys have shown that black people are about four times as likely to be anti-semitic as white people.
But I guess white people have a lock on racism in the US.
Just to clarify, you’re intolerant of people who think that their white skin constitutes a culture. Do you think black skin alone constitutes a culture or heritage?
At this point I’m just curious what your response will be: to call me a racist for saying that blacks are more likely to be anti-semitic than whites, to start trashing Jews and saying that they deserve it, or both.
i agree
I’m working on, and this is getting a head start on things, my Art Deco, sepia-tone, large Courier font “Free Dick Cheney” poster.
I realize that my campaign will only succeed if Cheney is jailed in Myanmar… er, Burma.
Funny…since there’s a black dude in the picture.
HILARIOUS!!!
Uh-oh…I own like 3 Rage CDs…does that make me the most politically savvy white chick on the planet (from my early 20s) or just 10 shades of lame? lol
LOVE this blog. Keep ’em coming!
yes, they make great targets.
it is funny because he just left the bathroom after screwing your mother.
you beeotch.
it is funny because he just left the bathroom after screwing your mother..
you beeotc
It is quite obvious that you CANNOT read or COMPREHEND Nir… what was the definition of racism?…If you had read what i’ve written, you would not have made a fool of yourself in confusing BIGOTRY (which you are talking about) and RACISM (which the USA was built on…in its laws, practices, justice system, etc….all of which for the benefit of whites only).
I did not say that blacks could not be racist; on the contrary, there are many blacks and other non-whites who firmly believe that white people are superior to non-whites, and actively enforce these beliefs.
Justice Clarence Thomas is a fine example of this.
I like RATM going back to Zach being in Hard Stance and Inside Out but I never blindly believed in their causes.
louie, Eldridge Cleaver came around. You can too!
ah ha ha ha ha *sigh*
okay, this blog has it’s moments, and i’m sure it’s very intimidating for some people to read as they slowly realize that they are walking archetypes. but this is where i draw the line, because this is waaaaaaaay more about pretentious and superficial snobs than about ‘white people.’ i can’t figure out if you have to meet ALL of these requirements to be ‘white,’ or just a certain number.
‘stuff all americans like’: shifting the topic from class and power to race and stereotyping.
personally, i’ll take a pompous-yet-concerned citizen over the corrupt fux who actually lock up the political prisoners.
Actually, I agree. As annoying as privileged liberals are, and as funny as this blog is, reading it gives the impression that it is better to be a narrow minded redneck than a “white person who likes X”
The content is spot on, but it’s kind of an old way of talking about race.
dude, you will find louie to be a sad, sad pathetic racist. He is full of hate and his words will shine that through to you. As I have told him, I feel sorry for him. He has to go through life blaming and feeling like crap. Oh he’ll pretend he is intelligent, but he’s nothing more than a poor racist sap-headed loser.
I knew louie would chime in there with the “black man” crap. But you are right. Obama IS half American white and half non-American black. He is of absolutely ZERO African-American decent. African-American is another name black Americans of African slave decent gave themselves. Obama’s dad was never an American citizen and as you may know, there is serious question as to whether Obama was even born in Hawaii instead of Africa. The “copy” of his produced birth certificate from Hawaii states his father’s race to be African rather than black (In America and especially in the 60’s, race would have been “negro” which he would have been referred to at that time.) Certainly this will fire louie up. He’ll come back with a whole page of crap.
You’ll notice his “white folk” talk too. Poor louie, so sad, unhappy, full of hate.
small mind but an enormous head!
Think this website is totally racist..come on lets move on its the 21st century, you cant always judge people just because their fathers’ fathers made crap.i’m white, a south african and proud of it…synergy is always a possibility and proven in our economy.
steve beeotch, i find you to be just a stupid assed beeotch.
beeotch.
WTF???
why don’t you take your redneck beotch assed self and write all this sh** to someone who gives a f*** about your beeotch assed race talk?
you dumb whitey beeotch.
whine while you blow me, beeotch.
why dont you come around and kiss my ass, beeotch.
Now I’m laughing good! cry me a river!
homo
cuz I’m not a homo like you. If I were, I like to think I could do better than you. UHHUH! BAM!!!
You talkin the NASCAR Daytona race that’s a comin up? Man you is redneck.
I hope you are making a lot of money off this lame blog, Christian.
Was that your experience? Slowly waking up to say, “wait, that’s me!”? lol. Yes, it’s stuff liberals like. He admits it in his CNN interview.
Does your heart bleed for Mumia? Have you read the book by his widow about the day her 20-something year old police officer husband was gunned down by this guy?
There’s a lot for the heart to bleed about in this world. He’s not one of them. Some people should be locked up. And some people need to find a JUST cause to pat themselves on the back for supporting.
And btw – it’s just a silly blog, folks. Lighten up. Your reaction to playful criticism could be its own entry.
i am glad to hear that you’re laughing beeotch. i guess it is all you can do when you read that bull*** you wrote.
And while you’re cryin a river,
why don’t you just kissin’ my ass?
beeotch.
after you blow me, go back and do what you do good, letting the horse you rode in on f*** you before he rides YOU off into the sunset.
beetch.
f*** you and the horse
that rode you in,
beeeotch.
no, wasn’t my experience, lol, it’s just that reading this blog is like reading a racial horoscope. you read enough of them and you can’t help but relate. hummus is delicious, i have a brita filter, mos def is great, colbert is hilarious . . . ergo i am white. i didn’t realize this guy was famous, or that he was on cnn, whatever. by far the best part about this blog is that black americans have been reading the same thing for the last few centuries, except in that case it actually had real ramifications. so yes, just a blog, as you say.
‘bleeding heart’ asdlfkjaoeirtaorgijao;sdfjghoap;ierf i can’t stand that turn of phrase because it’s just a way for ‘realistic’ people to make ‘idealists’ look lame. my heart is not bleeding, but some situations are fucked up and people who create those situations act like their hands are tied.
i didn’t mean mumia specifically, not sure why you read that into my post. that is an ambiguous situation, we could go back and forth over who has more grief, mumia over his brother or the wife of the cop who shot mumia’s brother.
i just mean the thousands of political prisoners in general who are disappeared, tortured and killed because they are ‘subversive’ or whatever.
I love this site. Keep up the good work. My wife and I bought your book at an airport and have had it on our coffee table ever since.
Now, that’s white.
Yeah, but if you use any of my posts; I’m suing. That’s unless you push a little money my way.
You know this is satire right- The blogger’s white too.
Do you have a table made out of coffee? I bet that smells good.
Does Ti stand for total incest? I bet it does.
How exactly does a phrase turn? Is it like a ship turning, or more like an airplane turning?
One Rage cd? I have seven!
no he didnt. good try though
beeotch isnt that funny of a word. at all. and your not clever or funny either so enough with these lame responses.
i cant read this anymore there are too many people that think theyre smart or just trying to get a rise out of people. im only on this cause im to tired from work and boxing to do a lot right now and im pretty bored. thats what kind of people post on these. do you really need to get a rise out of the bored or people with little else to do? uh huh im specifically directing this towards you. please dont call me a beeotch or a fag or a redneck because that would hurt oh so bad id probly have to cry. boo hoo
well then you don’t mind me calling you a beeotch, now would you, beeotch?
and i found this quite hilarious
beeotch.
whatevah beeotch.
Judging you from your writing; I would say your pride is mighty shallow.
Actually, I’m pretty sure that would probably be brown. Unless you were talking about the pages of the book they bought. Those would be white.
now that’s not very obama-like now is it? Oh, that’s right, obama is not QUITE what you are is he. lol
There was a conference in France where a
number of international engineers
were taking part, including French and
American. During a break, one of the
French engineers came back into the room
saying ‘Have you heard the latest
dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an
aircraft carrier to Indonesia to help
the tsunami victims. What does he intended
to do, bomb them?’
A Boeing engineer stood up and replied
quietly: ‘Our carriers have three hospitals
on board that can treat several hundred
people; they are nuclear powered and
can supply emergency electrical power to
shore facilities; they have three cafeterias
with the capacity to feed 3,000 people
three meals a day, they can produce several
thousand gallons of fresh water from sea
water each day, and they carry half a
dozen helicopters for use in transporting
victims and injured to and from their flight
deck. We have eleven such ships; how many
does France have?’
You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a naval
conference that included Admirals
from the U.S. , English, Canadian,
Australian and French Navies. At a cocktail
reception, he found himself standing with
a large group of Officers that included
personnel from most of those countries.
Everyone was chatting away in English
as they sipped their drinks but a French
admiral suddenly complained that,
whereas Europeans learn many languages,
Americans learn only English.’ He then
asked, ‘Why is it that we always have to
speak English in these conferences rather
than speaking French?’ Without
hesitating, the American Admiral replied ‘Maybe
it’s because the Brits, Canadians, Aussies
and Americans arranged it so you
wouldn’t have to speak German.’
You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AND THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE
ABOVE…
Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83,
arrived in Paris by plane. At French
Customs, he took a few minutes to locate
his passport in his carry on. ‘You have
been to France before, monsieur?’ the
customs officer asked sarcastically.
Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to
France previously.. Then you should
know enough to have your passport ready..’
The American said, ”The last time I was
here, I didn’t have to show it. ‘Impossible.
Americans always have to show your
passports on arrival in France !’ The American
senior gave the Frenchman a long hard
look. Then he quietly explained, ”Well,
when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day
in 1944 to help liberate this country,
I couldn’t find a single Frenchmen to show
a passport to.’
You could have heard a pin drop.
If you are proud, pass this on!

WHAT THA F***?
This is called a ‘blog’ beeotch, not a ‘cut and paste’ project. if we wanted to read newsclips, we’d be on a news site.
did i say i was like obama beeotch?
as i recalled it, i told you to take your redneck beotch assed self and write all this sh** to someone who gives a f*** about your beeotch assed race talk?
you dumb whitey beeotch.
*sigh* I feel much better.
“just trying to get a rise out of people”—-Is there something else we’re supposed to be doing? Isn’t that the essence of blogging? Beeeoootch
This beeeoootch thing seems to be everywhere. I kind of like it. Time wise it is a few days yet, before is bores the fuck out of me. So, I’m busy running it into the ground until then.

FRY MUMIA…..innocent my ass! Have they ever even READ the transcripts????
I can identify with that.
In Christmas 1972 I got about 2000 Amnesty International Christmas cards. I think they were all from white people.
for some reason, all those white people thought that you were a political prisoner.
tell us, what did you do?
you are slowly learning the essence of the word. subtle, yet effective.
say it loud and often when you have the urge.
BEEEEEEOOOOTCH!

Okay, I get this is satire and some of it is actually very funny. Can you imagine the outrage that everyone (of color or otherwise) would have if you set up a web site like the following:
“Stuff Black People Like” (Embracing generic “African” names and dress while being clueless to the tribe/country [and consequently, the genocide] associated with such, ostentatious displays of pseudo wealth while in line at the grocery with food stamps)
“Stuff Asian People Like” (math, dry cleaning businesses)
“Stuff Mexican People Like” (’79 Monte Carlos, Hoodies from colleges they never went to because hey bought them at Goodwill, microwave burritos)
“Stuff Gay People Like’ (Bravo Channel reality shows such as ‘Real Housewives of —‘, Mazda Miatas, thinking because they’re gay they somehow have some innate fashion sense superior to everyone else even if they wear Dockers and poly/cotton Chaps by Ralph Lauren shirts they bought at Marshall’s)
“Stuff Jewish People Like” (Red Envelope Gift Catalogs, constantly proclaiming Israelis as victims even as they slaughter others, Haggling)
“Stuff Cuban People Like” (Inner tubes, complaining about the injustices of the Castro Regime while talking on their i-phone and driving in their Escalade through South Beach)
and my personal favorite “Stuff East Indian People Like” (Quickimarts, free hotel towels, child marriages)
Now those would be funny too!
hey not white, you forgot to tell us that it is WHITE PEOPLE who say those things you’re saying about others. Thus you are not a not white, but rather a white pretending to be not white beeotch.
Now that is funny.
you’re probably right, uh huh. That blog “not white” wrote a sounded WAY TOO intelligent to have come from someone other than white or asian!

I think they’d all laugh their asses off . And its probably cause its so easy to know what ethnic stereotypes are……..wonder why that is hmmm?……
It s a lot harder to stereotype whitey cause “the way of the white guy” is the norm.
@Jenna: hope you are serious. If so, right on. But shallow politically stupid people continue to champion him. White guilt is something some white people with more money than brains wear like a medal— look at Bill Ayers, he’s built 3 careers on it (failed revolutionary, Alinskyesque educator/mentor and author). Also his views on cop killing were similar to abu Jamal’s, weren’t they?
Congratulations. You have adopted something else SOME white people like: PREJUDICE.
Another thing white people like:
-Taking themselves too seriously
Mike – you are a liar. And a fukcing idiot.
Polygamist who tortured his family is sentenced to 7 life terms
The ‘reign of terror’ merits the harshest punishment, Riverside County judge says. Mansa Musa Muhummed starved, beat and imprisoned his 3 wives and 19 children for decades.
A polygamist who tortured, starved, imprisoned and beat his wives and children for decades was sentenced to seven life terms in prison Friday by a judge who said the man’s “reign of terror” warranted the harshest punishment available.
Mansa Musa Muhummed, 55, spoke before sentencing and denied ever mistreating his three wives and 19 children.
“I never tortured anyone,” he told Riverside County Superior Court Judge F. Paul Dickerson III. “I don’t know where that came from.”
The judge dismissed his comments. “Mr. Muhummed showed no remorse and accepted no responsibility for his twisted behavior, and the court is sending the strongest message possible,” he said.
Family members filled the back row of the courtroom, some of the women wearing colorful head scarves.
“I’m very afraid of him. I really don’t want him to get out of jail at all,” his daughter Sharon Boddie, 28, told the judge. “Please, Your Honor, don’t show him any mercy because he never showed any mercy to his kids.”
Muhummed was arrested in 1999 at the family’s house in rural Aguanga in Riverside County, but legal maneuvering delayed the trial for years.
Originally from Virginia, Muhummed came to California, converted to Islam and moved his family from place to place, living in houses, small apartments and vans.
Family members testified that he would beat them savagely with boat oars, hoses and electrical cords for any perceived infraction. Grounds for beatings included sneaking food, failing to recite a passage from the Koran accurately and not asking to use the bathroom. He also organized fights between his boys.
Muhummed tightly rationed food for everyone but himself. He carefully locked up the cabinets and chained the refrigerator. His children said he “ate like a king” while they went hungry.
In fact, they said, they went up to seven days without food. They had to beg for it or pick a lock and steal it. If caught, they were beaten or made to stand all night in a corner. Buckets in bedrooms usually served as their toilets, they said.
When police found Sharon Boddie in 1999, she was 18 years old, weighed 48 pounds and stood barely 4 feet tall. Her older brother Marlon weighed 53 pounds. Another brother, Curtis, 16, weighed 42 pounds.
Marlon Boddie, in an interview before the sentencing, said his father hung him upside down in the basement by a cord and beat him for hours. He said he was made to eat his own feces and vomit. Marlon Boddie, now 29, said he once smashed a bottle against his head in order to get sent to a hospital and out of the house.
“He broke my arm once and wrapped a towel around it real tight like a cast,” he said. “Imagine what it’s like to see your dad split open your head, then sew it up with a needle and thread.”
Like many members of his family, Marlon Boddie is at loose ends, trying to navigate a world that was hidden from him for most of his life. The experience, he said, has irrevocably scarred him.
“It’s like 20 years of my life has gone down the drain. Even now I get afraid to eat. I look around me to see if someone is watching,” he said.
The family lived in Bakersfield, North Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, Moreno Valley, Riverside and Aguanga. Muhummed made money selling his food stamps and collecting Social Security on himself and his children, family members said. His children were pulled out of elementary school or never sent. Some still struggle with basic skills such as reading, writing a check and shopping for groceries.
“When I got out I couldn’t read,” Sharon Boddie said. “I had never been to school.”
The wives and children were often locked up in a dark garage for days with no heating, air conditioning or toilets.
In 1999, one of the wives slipped a letter to the mailman, begging for help. Police raided the Aguanga home and arrested Muhummed. Another wife, Marva Barfield, was jailed for a year on charges of child endangerment. She was released after agreeing to testify against her husband.
“I married him at 18 and got out at 45,” Barfield said in court Friday. “I was scared of him. I want to apologize to my kids for not doing more, but I was truly afraid of him.”
A letter was read from another daughter, Felicia Boddie, asking the judge to show mercy: “If he didn’t have emotional problems, would he have done this? . . . I want the hate to end and the healing to begin.”
When it was Muhummed’s turn to talk, all but two family members left the courtroom. He spoke defiantly, saying that he was innocent and that his children were pressured to say they were abused.
“I made mistakes, but they know how I looked after them their whole lives,” he said. “I tried to keep them together. My family never suffered the way they say they did.”
The judge denied a defense motion to sentence Muhummed to one life term so he might be eligible for parole someday. Instead, he gave him a life sentence for each of the seven counts of torture. Muhummed isn’t eligible for parole for at least 65 years, said his attorney, Peter Morreale.
Marta Butterfield, one of the jurors in the case, showed up for the sentencing. “I think he is such a monster,” she said, “and I wanted to see him get everything he deserved.”

ZIMBABWE’S President Robert Mugabe and his wife Grace have secretly bought a £4m bolt-hole in the Far East while his country struggles with hyper-inflation, mass unemployment and a cholera epidemic.
The Mugabes’ house, in an exclusive residential complex in Hong Kong, was purchased on their behalf by a middleman through a shadowy company whose registered office is in a run-down tenement block. When a reporter and a photographer called at the house last week, they were attacked by the Zimbabwean occupants. The assailants were questioned by the police.
The property came to light during a Sunday Times investigation into the Mugabes’ financial interests in Asia, where a web of associates has helped them to spend lavishly on luxuries and stash away millions in bank accounts. In Zimbabwe, meanwhile, inflation has reached 231m%, unemployment stands at 94% and 3,467 people have died in recent months from cholera.
According to sources in Zimbabwe and Asia, Grace Mugabe has splashed out £55,500 on marble statues in Vietnam and £8,700 on a handbag in Singapore. She and her husband have enjoyed some of the region’s finest hotels.
Grasping Grace puts diamond business on her shopping list
Mrs Mugabe hits Sunday Times photographer
In Hong Kong, where she has discussed a venture to have Zimbabwean diamonds cut and polished in China, her aides paid one hotel bill with a bag of cash containing £10,500.
The Hong Kong house is the first in the Far East to be identified as the Mugabes’. Last Friday two men and a woman objected violently to the arrival of this newspaper’s journalists.
The throat of Colin Galloway, a 46-year-old reporter, was gripped and bruised by a man in his thirties who lifted him off his feet. Galloway was later examined under police supervision at hospital.
Tim O’Rourke, 45, was grabbed by the neck in his second bruising encounter involving the Mugabes in Hong Kong. Last month Grace Mugabe flew at him with her fists after repeatedly punching another Sunday Times photographer in the face in an incident that attracted worldwide publicity.
Hong Kong police said last night that inquiries into a case of alleged common assault on Friday were continuing.
The disclosures about the Mugabes’ Far Eastern interests are certain to anger Zimbabweans already outraged by extravagant celebrations laid on for the dictator’s 85th birthday this week.
nice cut and paste….so what’s your point?

Hell-arious parody of Stufff White People Like on the humor site
called Freedom Haters.org.
Please don’t put all white people on this one. Mumia is the scum off the earth and I hope he suffers a cruel death he is a cop killer who should be put to death and anyone who feels he should be freed should be shunned from society.
Free Mumia AND Charlie Manson! They both been in jail for a combined time of almost 66 years. Haven’t they suffered enough?
SORRY…who’s Mumia, again?
I think Dennis Leary said it best with “…shinny happy people holding hands…..HEY HEY HEY, pull that bus over to the side of the Pretentiousness Turnpike, we represent the Angry, Gun Toting, Meat Eating, Fucking people…”
I have read this and other stories on the list, and it seems that “Clander” keeps writing about all of the “yuppie”, self obsorbed, oblivious, self diluded intelectual, types of white people born with silver spoons in their mouths.
Funny because I can trace my direct lineage in America back to when we were under a British flag. My family have all been Soldiers, Builders, Mechanics, technicians, tradesman, merchants….Blue Collar…. definatley not the 10% he likes to poke fun at.
I grew up in the South, I have an accent. I am what is considered as one of those “Big Ass Cornfed Fucking Crackers”. Proud too. thats one thing my family has, PRIDE. Because everything we’ve got comes from what we dug up or worked out…. sweaty, dirty, hard, bloody, and oily…. nothing has ever been given to ANY of us. (AND NO, NONE OF MY FAMILY EVER OWNED A SLAVE… despite what some of the “Farrakhan’s” in our society have tried to say, or would like for you to believe.)
Yet, I look around and see the transplants come from other parts of the world, its terrible were they live, they see what families like mine have striven to build and decide they are entitled to some of it. I say more power to them… BUT CONTRIBUTE!! PULL YOUR WEIGHT!!
Not like those assholes from the 9th Ward that got shipped all over the country, on the taxpayers dime, while illegal aliens came in to mop up the mess; only to be denied greencards and get deported for their trouble.
Every man has a right to feed his family; I say let them work. Every man has a right to keep his family safe; I say leave them alone and let them live. Every man has a right to hold his head up and be free of fear of persecution; I say myself, my father and his father and his father before him have all served the military for this belief. BUT DO NOT CHANGE OUR VALUES, OUR MORALS, OUR CUSTOMS, or OUR BELIEF IN GOD… we have fought for those things too. If you are here, you came for a reason… so do not expect America to cater to you and assimilate to you, or change into what you obviously left behind. Dumb-ass.
I guess the point I am trying to say is that words like “Minority” or “Persons of Color” or “Mexican American” or “African American” etc. etc. Its all bull shit. Its words of people seeking a common identity….. weak.
Were you born here? then your AMERICAN! Simple. If not get a green-card and then ASSIMILATE. Simple. Stop making excuses and trying to be special or different or mis-understood. Fact is white people are outnumbered on the planet. So when i hear about people whining about how white people are the reason for their problems… I say take a prozac because obviously you like being a vicitm of your circumstance rather than taking responsibility for your own life, and if it wasnt your skin, it would be something else that is holding you back.
NOT MY FAULT. I am tired of people speaking to me like it is. I have a right to be proud to be me, I see “Brown Pride”, “Asian Pride”, “Black Pride” bumper stickers… but i throw up a “White Pride” bumper sticker, I get the ACLU picketing on my front lawn….WTF?!
Am i expected to apologize? Fuck You; Shit stack… I wont. I was born white, end of the conversation. I get no special priveleges. I will say I have had many mentors who have guided me through my life, I am the product of their knowledge, and my fathers strength, and my mothers intelligence. It all has served me well, but in the end, most of my success has come from communcation skills. Not my skin. So try reading a few books or take a course in communication… Toastmasters … something; just quit bitchin.
As for the rest of the items on the list… some are just ridiculous stereo types or are something everyone does if left to their own devices. And yeah, Nelson Mandela rocks… dude goes to prison for 30 years and still came out with love in his heart…. if had been me; i would be bringing the mother fuckin rain.
So hats off to that guy; and President Obama… cause that man has full plate too.
thats not white boy…. Thats a White MAN, Bitch.
whatevah, you long winded beeeeeotch.
yeah…that was a bit long winded, wasnt it.
guess i had that on my chest for a while. Just get tired of people assuming that if your a white southerner, you must be a racist.
I’ll agree to free Mumia if whoever decided to name him Mumia takes his place in prison.
why don’t you ask a klebold to take his place on death row for columbine?
Wait, when did I say the scales were tipped in favor of blacks? Can you point out in my comment where I argued that the justice system favors blacks? No, you can’t, because I didn’t make that point.
I was responding to a “lawyer” named Debbie who tries to get black people who are guilty lighter prison sentences because they’re black.
You assumed that because my comment was about a black man getting off when he should be in prison, I feel that the whole justice system works like that. If I had told a anecdote about the white man who gets out of a prison sentence because he’s white you would have nodded your head in agreement.
You idiot. My point was that treating someone differently because of the color of their skin is always wrong no matter what color their skin is. People like you and Debbie hurt black people far more than you help them by having this condescending attitude. What you’re saying is that black people shouldn’t be responsible for their actions and white people should.
The guy should have been in jail.. I didn’t list the crimes he committed because I couldn’t remember them but there were multiple violent crimes like assault and others. The source was a newspaper article that I read on the internet months ago and can’t remember.. you should believe the tale because I’m not a lying douchebag but I don’t blame you for not believing; this is the internet after all.
And yes, the people he killed were of multiple ethnic backgrounds, I think there was a hispanic and a few blacks. Jesus Christ man…
I wasn’t complaining about the justice system, you moron. I was complaining about racist fools who treat people differently because of their skin color- I don’t care if they’re white, black, magenta.
Prisons are always on my radar. See why here http://muttslikeme.wordpress.com/about/
Political? I don’t think so. Is it a white people thing? I don’t think so.
If you think that all white people are Mumia supporters, then maybe you should visit Philly. I’d say the vast majority of white people there are anti-Mumia.
Mumia is a cop killer. Fry that son-of-a-bitch!
Signed,
White Girl Who Normally Agrees With This Blog
no, louie, they have not
maybe his point was to make you sit and read the entire thing louie! it worked!
tuh’buhda uhhuh.
it’s nice to see people that ignore destruction of evidence and witness abuse by philadelphia police to get a conviction! go you!
I’m apparently a part of that subset of white people not mentioned here… the poor/blue collar. A factory job and a broke down pickup truck are my calling card. You know, the high school drop-outs [like me] and kids who couldn’t afford college?
I have a few well off [white] friends, the upper-middle class hipster types. After reading a lot of the stuff on here I almost wonder to myself if I’m really their friend, so-to-speak, or just someone they call a friend so they can say they have a poor, lower-class friend… makes me think.
Except unlike you friend, I’m from the North, you dirty Johnny Reb. Heh just messing with you man. But yes, here you have a southerner and a Rust Belt resident. Lets Party.
_______________
Anyways, as for PCs, I don’t really care. My own vague connection to the issue? I’m a fifth-gen Basque, the first members of our family arrived in the 19th century. I have some relatives, close and distant still in Spain. A few of the s.o.b’s are in the ETA, and I wouldn’t give them the time of day. Freedom fighters my ass. They get put in prison for murdering and bombing and insist they deserve treatment as political prisoners? Fuck ’em. We lost. Our homeland was conquered, and we sure as hell are never going to get it back again. Dumbasses. Murdering spaniards and tourists gets us nowhere.
And a question: I’ve never asked my parents this, or any other relatives, but what where the fuck do we stand? Are Basques white? or some other shit? I’m swarthy as any dirty wop, but always considered myself white.
Unfortunately, “white pride” is read as “white supremacy” and probably always will be. Even if it is not meant to be taken that way.
Except that if these are political prisoners due to an unpopular religion, white people don’t give a rat’s ass.
Ironically a religion like islam, where islamic people are jailed not because of persecution, but because the U.S. Military caught them trying to blow up the U.S. Military as well as israeli children, will see more white people sympathy than Christianity, whose main problem is that it tells white people to stop fucking around, get a job, and go to church.
Soviet Russia is pretty much the expert-level white person response to this. Not only do they overlook the actual real repression and oppression, they justify it, while roundly complaining at the non-white people who happen to point out that hey, Stalin killed 4 million people.
This website is great…

Yeah, well…
Few people with the power to do anything give a crap what some darko has to say about some other minority who got burned, so it’s kind of a personal obligation for whites who actually give a shit to stand up for those who are getting screwed, especially because we aren’t as likely to get tossed for it and more people are likely to listen.
Or would you prefer we do nothing?
Hmm… I could use a year off…

I love this site!
Check out this humor site too: http://www.somethingyoushouldread.com
maybe my sense of humor isn’t bizarre enough or maybe this site isn’t bizarre enough.either way i found it rather absurd..even more stupid stupid..than funny..what i read about white people wasn’t even humorous.i could easily pen an article that simply makes ridiculous statements(untrue of course)about whites or blacks or terriers. why (untrue )
likes and hates regarding a particular race is comedic to someone makes me think that some people must be so easily amused that it’s sad.
not offensive..just plain sad.
this site isn’t funny..period..it’s..stupid.
This is quite funny, but come on political prisoners are something white people like? Hardly!
As a white person, I appreciate the bashing of what are essentially attributes of American white folks… and privileged american culture.
And as someone who actually works on support political prisoners, what you say is total bullshit.
I’m sorry but white people supporting political prisoners just isn’t true. There are a documented 150 or so political prisoners in the U.S. and I have to say if white people cared so much about political prisoners, as you insist, we’d have a serious movement in this country that very well may of succeeded in freeing some of those prisoners.
The movement to free those prisoners is largely made up of people of color. The Jericho Movement, Friends and Family of Mumia Abu-Jamal….
Anyway… bash white people if you want, but the white people that support political prisoners is less then 1% of the population…
Oh ok, so only non-whites like Harry Wu should campaign for human rights. the rest of us should just let you all rot in jail, huh? You’re lucky that only whites get jailed for ‘hate crimes’ or one day you might find yourself a political prisoner for being outspoken about white people. Then you could rot in jail, and I could take my support for political prisoners and free speech elsewhere.
READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
your facts about what white people like seem outdated, and would only apply to older conservative white people. I think your stuff should be updated, possibly with the help of a few real white people.
p.s. Im from california, although some people of all races, (mostly potheads) admire and enjoy bob marlys music, here in cali ive noticed that it is mostly hispanic people or mexicans that have “phases” or obsessions with bob marley. they go as far as putting bumper stickers all over there vehicles and getting him tatooed on there bodies. I havent seen too many white people take it that far! mabee some posters on a wall though.
I think you are confusing Che Guevara with Bob Marley…
And, pray tell, what is a ‘real white person’?
LOL the funniest part of this blog is reading the comments of people who take this seriously!!
Very funny.
I am pleased to say that you have something wrong with you, you always seem to fit race in the picture with 90 percent of what you write. the problem is your very confused because the majority of what you write is wrong and honestly somewhat disturbing i am surprised that you have a job because you may have white friends but its fake because when it comes down to it there is no doubt about it that you dont like white people. its racism in its own way what if i write an ariticle about black people ummmm i cant because i would have a law suit to deal with, its not right and it’s bull shit.
what about there victims dumb ass
let a white man write an article like this and its a sure thing he will be fired even if it doesnt get published.
You’ve taken this too seriously. I think the point is that (tongue-in-cheek), privileged whities like to say they “support” causes because it makes them feel good and look good. It doesn’t mean they really do anything to help anyone. So your statistic about real support, is likely true. But again, that is not what this blog is talking about.
He is white
This is quite possibly the worst string of run-on sentences I have ever seen in my lifetime.
so true.
Well that depends i guess, the only “white” people are englishmen, and some irishmen who act like englishmen.
Then there are tainted “white people” like italian, greek, french and russian.
Agree!
I guess it’s because the author has a sort of British sense of humour that not everybody in the US understands.
It’s either that white people don’t have a sense of humor or they just can’t imagine themselves being made fun of. This isn’t abstract art, guys.
Double whammy. Political prisoner & white guy with dreds!
http://www.beabetterproducer.com
Tainted white people? Tainted with what? Warm summers and mild winters?
Sometimes the knee jerk comments are funnier than the actual articles.
I WANT A MILLION DOLLARS!!! Can one million RICH WHITE PEOPLE send me one dollar apiece, puh-lease????
I don’t want money from any Asians, or Blacks or Hispanics. You guys NEED your money. I only want one dollar apiece from RICH WHITE PEOPLE, who only WASTE their money on things like supporting political prisoners.
Waste it on me instead. Thanks so much! (First person who comments “You ARE a waste.” is a rotten egg. You thought it. I know you did. Stop lying. See? I knew it.)

Mumia deserves to die in prison, he did it and its so godamn obvious
I thought that eating out of/drinking from aluminum eventually led to dementia.
White people certainly do not like Dane Cook, and Abraham Lincoln calls him out on it…

Mumia deserves to be set free from prison. He did not do it and it’s so daaamn obvious.
Way to re-claim your white street-cred, Shattered Mace.
Maybe I can one-up you. I can trace my ancestry back to the first squirt of European sperm to ever fertilize an Indian whom. That poor, poor, raped Indian whom.
Viva la raza!!!
Are people actually saying he didn’t do it??? That’s dumb. The question is: did that a$$hole cop have it coming after shooting Mumia’s brother?
What is this, a police state?
I agree. I think prison stats and political landscape say loud and clear that white people LOVE putting people in prison.
This blog is just making a lame attempt to make fun of dudes like Bill Ayers who like to play “radical” in their 20s.
man, dane cook is just aweful. i’d rather watch a marathon of sinbad in the caribbean than a single dane cook bit.

Screw him. Charles Manson is in prison for life. He’s psycho and doesn’t belong in soceity. After 24 parole interviews, he hasn’t changed abit. The face of evil who belongs in jail and stays in jail. +
“One’s terrorist criminal is another’s freedom fighter” – to describe the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization), IRA (Irish Republican Army), ETA (Basque separatists) in Spain, PKK (Kurdistan Nationhood Party) in Turkey and Tamil Tigers of Sri Lanka, all classified terrorist by the U.S. government. The principle is similar to our founding fathers’ own acts described “treasonous” by the British during the American Revolution, thus the United States of America was founded by terror techniques and methods. +
Nick was referring to European nationalists like the Nazis described Jews tainted with “foreign” blood other than the “Aryan” race. What a bunch of racist psuedoscience and Hitler’s ambition to create a superior “master race” modeled on the (stereo) typical White German or “Nordic” people. +
According to historians, the Stalinist regime killed 40-50 million people, ten times the number you gave us…and established similar regimes in Soviet bloc satellite nations, one remains around (North Korea). The Maoist regime in China had a death toll of 60 million estimated, though may be incorrect. Communism, like fascism, doesn’t value human rights and it’s just as brutal. +
Manson is a convict drifter took advantage of young teen girls pretending he’s a “hippie” and “the 2nd coming of god” with his racist rant on Black people will cause a race war or something from a Beatles song ‘helter-skelter’. He knew the victims murdered by his followers, including a pregnant actress Sharon Tate while her husband Roman Polanski wasn’t present at the incident. Manson was denied parole like 20 times already, he can’t be reformed (he’s freaking nuts) and what’s with a Nazi forehead tattoo? Damn, he’s gonna rot in San Quentin for life. +
Dan, I read much on the subject about the Basques, one of the few peoples with genetic sequences unlike 6 billion others in the world. Their language has no known relatives, surrounded by Indo-European Romance speaking nations. The Basques are a people, but their historical presence goes back 20,000 years, their isolation for much of the time until after the Roman empire’s downfall and the highest incidence of RH negative blood factor is also a mystery. The Basques long sailed in the 7 seas, dispatched farmers or shepherds in all 6 continents, and many famous Spaniards are of Basque descent like Dali, Picasso and Simon Bolivar. The Basques have a community in Bakersfield, Cal. home to a few restaurants, festivals and language schools. +
White people count on a “brother” president Obama to pardon Mumia from prison. I doubt it’ll happen, because he killed a police officer. Mumia is no Martin Luther King Jr., but Mumia was in the Black panther party in the ’70s to fight for the struggle and plight of poor Blacks in urban areas such as Philadelphia. If Mumia was arrested for simply picketing, he could got cleared by Clinton or Jimmy Carter long ago. +
I love it, go to jail for political reasons to make friends. Amazing! I write for http://StuffRichPeopleLove.com and know that the rich go to jail for totally different reasons and really don’t love it!
Chas Underwood III you are a hack. Get an original idea and stop ripping off stuffwhitepeoplelike.

Hello everybody, I am the asshole using enigmas name to type ignorant nonsense. I know I am a dumbass, but I can’t help myself. If you happen to see enigmas name talking garbage, just disregard it. I am a dumbass, needle dick bitch with no life using other peoples name in vain. I apologize to all.
White people sure do like nelson mandela, I know this because my father is one of these white people and he tried to name me Mandela, Not kidding.

Shut up hit em, there is nothing you can do to not be a BITCH.
Free Mumia!!!!
That ‘bitch’ is your president.
…but only so I can kill him myself! LOL
… and it sucks 😦 the only reason he was elected was because he’s black!
that’s what that white cop said before mumia got to his gun first!
LOL
Good for Mumia Abu Jamal, he killed a cop who tried to kill him.
nobody rapes cop killers in prison. haha
Blame white people if he was elected because he’s black. There’s 10 times more white people in the US than non-whites. It sucks being white and voting for Obama?
duh.
Obama is more white than he is black. He was raised by his white mother and white grandparents, his black father wasn’t in the picture (what a shocker)! Plus he talks white, walks white, and acts white. Otherwise he wouldn’t have won… DUH!
Prison guards do. HAHAHA
If U was sent to prison he would be raped in a second. Because child rapsts get raped all the time!

How pathetic. What…did you respond to every thread on this site in an attempt to pump up your weak little site? Let me guess…you worship fools like Bill Mahar and Michael Moore and then you wonder why a site like this mocks you.
I am a political prisoner….., prisoner of ‘love’ that is. I got held against my will by some big black guy who fucks me in the ass all the time. He fucked me til I started to love him. Now he is my boo.+
Mumia Abu Jamal was a cop killer–period. Anyone who admits that would not lose this white person’s friendship. It would prove to me that you have a brain!
and who the hell are you to be friends with? Free Mumia damn it!!
Free Aung San Suu Kyi !!!
imprison Dick Cheney!!
Agreed!
I can’t stand people who “support” political prisoners like Leonard Peltier. His whole beef is that he got a harsher sentence than his conspirators. So what? Lots of people get stuck in jail for the same reason.
I’m not friends with anyone who thinks that supporting him is supporting Native people. It’s NOT!
(and I am not white, I am Cherokee and proud of it!)
FREE AVON!!!!!
You Griffin, are an example of why native americans always get screwed over by whites. You are one of those native american sellouts. Always believing that the white man will do right by the native american if the native american ‘trusts’ the white man to do the right thing.
Haven’t you and your people been waiting for over 100 years for the white man give you reparations for taking your lands.
Free Peltier!!
impeach obamao!!!!
If you think the white man is screwing over the indians, you haven’t been to a casino lately.
Is this about some lady locked in a pink Cadillac full of makeup?
enigmama
He is, was, and always will be a COP-KILLER and deserves to die for what he did. How anyone can support or have sympathy for that kind of person is beyond me.
Big fan, love this site!
Another great site to check out is http://www.SomethingYouShouldRead.com
Um, it is possible that the cop was killed by the other person shot dead. Only Mumia was left to stand trial so he got the rap.
Love it!
I’d also suggest taking a look at http://www.SomethingYouShouldRead.com
Ahh the irony. Because you know so much better the situation of native americans than an actual native american. Nice try, but I think he knows what he’s talking about.
Guess what? Mumia’s death sentence has been rescinded ! It looks like he will get a fair trial afterall.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100119/ts_nm/us_usa_crime_abujamal
Free Mumia!!
END OF FRIENDSHIP!
This is great news!
I hope he get released so cops can pull him over and slowly murder him. Scumbag.
No, he’s a dirtball. I hope he gets raped on a regular basis.
Yes, free Mumia… so cops can slowly beat him to death. Scum bag.
Get a life, engma. Dumb coon.
Coon
Darkie
Ha ha. If Mumia gets out, and the police pull him over again, then history will repeat itself; But this time, he won’t be arrested or charged.
Free Mumia!
Leonard Peltier is another political prisoner White People love to protest for…well I guess we Natives have stopped, because we know he’ll never get out. But Rage against the Machine helped that front out.
Quite the pants pisser!
Here’s another good one: http://www.SomethingYouShouldRead.com
One thousandth !!!!!!!!!
Why isn’t this site called “Stuff left wing, upper-middle class yuppie hipsters like?”
I’m a white man, and I hate about 90% of the entries on this list. I spent my college days and now my career being forced to put up with this garbage.
Someone should make a website titled “What Real White People Like” that accounts for the tastes of the 80% of whites to whom this list does not apply.
Here’s one that might be more your speed:
“…If you get uptight about the entries at stuffwhitepeoplelike.com, you might be……”
So… you’re admitting that he killed police, admitting that he will kill police again, and yet he is a political prisoner…. you are sick.
Mumia is murdering scum. I oppose the death penalty (we don’t want to sink to the scumsucking guttertrash Mumia’s level) and I’m glad to see he’ll be rotting in prison for eternity.
He got a fair trial more than once and you commie twats need to let go already. You won’t win, doesn’t matter how many street Europeans name after him.
Fuck Mumia, hope he has fun living the rest of his life in a cage. Peltier is a real political prisoner; stand up for him instead of wasting your time and sullying your reputation with the likes of murdering scum Mumia.
all bob marley wannabe activists need to accept the fact that nobody paid attention to them as a child, and nobody sure as hell does now. activism is USELESS.
They did, it’s called the Republican National Convention
That’s not a site, dumbass.
This one is classic. So true.
yeah, that would be hilarious.
This website is pure comedy, but I think that these stereotypes have to be pegged at our liberals. You know the type as this book covers that person. Such trendy people who actually believe that they can fool you into thinking that they have learned to think the way that they think by anything but paying way too much attention to celebrities.

NO US Elections in 2010?
Look at:
puffiewarning.wordpress.com
Be sure to look at the Archives
Is this what the Left is planning?
Is this what some of the Democratic supporters are
planning? Are some of these supporters
putting in a powder they call “Jock Strap”?
Is their budget about $100,000 to allow sending
75,000 Puffies to Republicans, their offices, and the
homes of their supporters?
Are they trying to give Obama a reason to issue
a Presidential Order to shut down the 2010 elections
until the Puffie issue is resolved?
Are huge numbers of 99ers also playing Puffie to
force the US Government to take some action?
Is this Puffie stuff just a low cost US civil war?
GHU
Isn’t it basically true that Mumia was convicted of murder and that there were eyewitnesses and stuff
not the kind of thing most people sympathize with you know?
Stop spamming this site, douche.
Also…concert benefits, like the one Johnny Depp and Eddie Vedder did for those guys who didn’t kill the kids and weren’t Satanists. (I forgot their group name, but I had to look them that up on Wikipedia)…what I couldn’t understand was why it was trendy to support those dudes to the point of raising money for them and stuff but not Leonard Peltier…although, Rage did give him props in a song…
Supposedly they just did
Mike Vick did not kill a policeman or another human. He actually did worse he killed dogs. Unforgivable. He can never be considered a political prisoner and MUST always be reviled. Any show of compassion for him will get you excluded from the inner circle of White people. Except of course football owners who will make millions from his talent. Fans will forgive and forget. But “real” White people NEVER!!
What does this mean to over 2 billion people who never heard of, much less read The Bible?
This “revealed truth” is little more then self aggrandizing poetry written by self absorbed people who believed themselves to be “chosen” above all other humans by “God” to carry his word and promises. God gave them rewards and promises of lands. Does this make sense to any intelligent person? Now try to enforce these promises in the modern world against other people who don’t believe in your God or his inspired words and books. Then it gets really crazy when the policies of secular states try to “assist” in making peace. This sounds to me like a very bad play written by a mentally ill person confined to an institution. Remember this God is missing in over half over the histories of the people of the world. Maybe he had no GPS to guide him to the rest of human kind.
Does Ernst Zundel qualify as a political prisoner?
Hey silly person of the repeating verse. If God is not white how can he be anything since he does not exist according to you. You make no sense unless you are just a troll. BTW is there any racism in Africa?? Ask the Japanese what they think of the Korans. Or the Chinese. You sound like a self-hating, guilt ridden liberal White person of marginal intelligence. White people are not the center of the world and their vices and virtues are not exclusive to them alone. Leave your little world of White people are bad all others are noble and join the human race. By using the old stereotypes about Blacks being physically superior and Asians being smarter you reveal yourself as an bigot. There are 100s of millions of Asians who are not educated and show little natural intellectual advantage over anyone. By attempting to quantify people by race you fall into the trap of all racists even when attempting to place White folks at the bottom. No sane person thinks Whites are the “best” race. Please leave the 1900s and join us in the 21st century. This is supposed to be a light site that plays on the cultural oddities that exist within some White cultures in N. America. Your injection of racist bile makes it less so.
LOL I saw this blog on http://www.DanielDickey.com (The MTV VJ) and must admit it’s just as funny!!!
Free Mark Emery!!!!!! Seriously you guys
White people, well all people, also enjoy http://www.NakedHipster.com. Mainly because the girls are hot and don’t have clothes on. Usually those two things go well together. You know, the hotness and the nakedness.
If blacks are physically superior what about the Klitschkos, Aleksander Povetkin, and Adamek? the top 5 HW boxers are white.
Also to the guy who posted this, the types of white people who support political prisoners would NEVER be caught dead supporting white ones. David Lane or other members of the Order. So yes you can go wrong. It’s only ok to support them if they were left wing, and preferably non-white.
hai
You must be a self-loathing gringo. What was the last greatest invention from an Asian? And only a person caught up in racial stereotyping believes that the African race are “physically superior”
Like all they’re are capable of is running, bouncing a round object or prize fighting. Also, Blacks and Asians can also be racist and moronic. Like yourself.
have you supported any cause lately
Doubt it, Bobby Sands the (white) Irish hunger striker is one of the most famous. Was left wing like you said thoguh
All those guys suck. Everyone knows the HW division in Boxing these days is a total joke and has been for the better part of a decade. Ever since Lennox Lewis (a black British guy) retired.
Everyone knows that all those guys suck. Like, for real, none of them are real fighters. The HW division sucks and has for the better part of a decade ever since Lennox Lewis (a black British guy) retired.

If someone told me that Mumia was their personal hero, I’d punch them in the jaw. He’s a cop killer, not a political prisoner.
He wasn’t my hero until I read that. Now, he is. Go ahead.

While satire and humor are clearly a good way to call attention to actual issues and do so in a (mostly) accessible and often challenging way, this article is dangerous. While it calls into light the discussion around political prisoners, it does so in a dismissive way that also excludes non-white support of political prisoners from the conversation. Really it ends the conversation before it begins.
Awareness of and solidarity for political prisoners is essential in the struggle against the prison industrial complex and the machinery of the pseudo-fascist American governments that puts people there. Political prisoners represent the rights of everyone. The various reasons that specific political prisoners are held captive, the processes through which they are persecuted, the mechanisms in place that allow the taking of their rights to occur, and then who knows about it, how, the conversations that take place, and what is done about it are all important parts of the conversation about political prisoners. And this is not and should not be portrayed as solely the white crusaders’ high horse, an image which is also just plain inaccurate, by the way. This issue is real and deserves to be treated seriously in a way that invites the discussion of race, without immediately discluding anyone, via either the making of white activists into the butt of the joke or the claim by omission that non-black people don’t have an interest in the subject.
Having a blog that is political like this one begs taking the conversation a step further and attempting to facilitate actual discussion and growth.
