Moderators lazarus Posted July 18, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2010 Excellent article karl!! What does the article have to do with NAACP's call for the Tea people to reject racism. Is it excellent becasue it's a black person who agrees with the right wing talking points? Please! Quote Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.

When the NAACP rejects the racism in the new black panther party, and all the talk of needing to kill the cracker babies, etc. etc. ad nausium, then maybe I'll be more inclined to listen to one thing they have to say. Until then they are nothing but a noise off in the distance. Come to think of it I haven't seen you reject all the racism coming from that party, and from all the other people who constantly cry racism, no matter what it actually is. Do you agree with them, that some cracker babies need to be killed? Seems to me, that if you're against racism, you ought to be against it no matter where it is. How can you be so blind to the racism within your own race? And have the nerve to call someone else racist. Some people should be banned from using that word, because of their total inability to apply it where it actually fits. Maybe I've missed it where you repudiated the racism coming from your own race. If I have, then show me a quote and set me straight. Until then you're nothing but a noise unto your own self. Because I don't even hear it.

The length and passion in your post proves that you are listening hard and feel it strong. Give this tactic a break. Talking about the black Panthers is just a smoke screen and trying to extend the argument to include me is just lame. Quote Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.

Guest Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 First tell me how that is just a smoke screen. Then tell me how your talking about the Tea Party is NOT just a smoke screen. Pa..Leeze! No one in the Tea Party has advocated killing ANYBODY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators lazarus Posted July 21, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 21, 2010 No one in the Tea Party has advocated killing ANYBODY! Neither has anyone in the NAACP. The NAACP didn't have to fire one of it's spokesmen either. Quote Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.

The connection between this discussion about NAACP "racism" and the Tea party is that the Tea Party spokesperson made the accusation! It's natural and logical to raise the Tea party in that context.

The NAACP didn't have to fire one of it's spokesmen either. Race baiters on either side should be dismissed and and their actions condemned. For the NACCP to have such a hizzy fit while ignoring the obvious disgusting video by the black panthers is as racist as anyone they are accusing. The man that posted that "satire" deserved to be dismissed. If for no other reason than sheer stupidity in this political climate.If it was written to demean he did not belong within the ranks of the tea Party. When I first read it I thought it was taken from statements made by a black man. Making the black race the "victims" of reduced entitlements. Quote Everything you do is based on the choices you make. It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argument, or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision and choice you make, period ... ... Wish more people would realize this.

Guest Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Are there people who are racist in the tea party? Sure. Are there people who are racist in the NAACP? Of course. That's just part of life. That can be said any organization on the planet. But the NAACP is as racist as any organization ever has been. It was founded by three white guys who were socialists, and was racist from the very outset. When the tea party was formed it had absolutely nothing to do with race.
