What about black people who live in Canada or Britain?

Why aren't i a Caucasian-American?

Not that there's a need for his hate-mongering ass anyway.

I'm with Dave on this.

It was actually a huge word of PRAISE for a terrific, dominating black (in part, any rate) athlete. It was the OPPOSITE of racism. Perhaps a tad poorly worded, but c'mon.

It's like all the bullshit over the word NIGGARDLY. Which has absolutely ZERO to do with the word "n*gger", or racism. (My black fiance gets all riled up over this one. She was an English major, and hates political correctness, Al Sharpton, or people who make issue of the legitimate use of "niggardly."

)

Doesn't mention anything about it being a racist term. And further investigation reveals that it is Irish in origin. The comment that was made basically said that the only way to stop Tiger was to kill (lynch) him.

I think that's a compliment. If someone said that about me, i'd be like "Hell yeah! I'm teh uber l337!!"

How on earth is 'lynch him in a back alley' racist? Am I missing something here?

newamerikangospel · 01-11-2008, 10:33 AM

Because some minorities think that EVERYONE owes them something

The little part in "A time to kill" with the naacp is an accurate representation of how an organization is. Very few of the people that actually saw the oppression are riding on these little tirades about whit people. Maybe because its the fact that while the black man made a wave, there were white people there to push the tide. The underground railroad wasn't an all black organization. Watch Dr. Kings rallies, and point out the whities.

Honestly, Al Sharpton needs to go away.

I defiantly see guys in white robes when people are talking about lynching and black guys in the same sentence. Does it make it racist, not really, inappropriate
but not worth getting rallied up. As someone said, there is a lot more to fix in this world then to ask for public apologies.

I love these sorts of attitudes from Sharpton and others- they look at non- minorities as the descendants of the whip- lashers of old.

Well guess what? We arent responsible for them. They need to learn that.

Aside from the fact that I'm first-gen anyway.
