the goal is to inflame black v. white discussion and instigate the prolongation of segregation. the last thing the Status Q needs is Black Civil Liberties groups and White People With Guns having something in common.


mission accomplished.


Id agree. Also what Jack said in the first reply to Posting Tulpa.

Sorry, I just came home from a bar where my friend was DJing. Its pretty late..

Ill try anyway :)

I dont take white to mean myself generally...
I once explained to a fellow student that look at your skin, do you see those dark spots everyone has? Thats your black man showing through. And that is true. In those spots on the skin, its producing melanin - the brown pigment that protects from UV radiation. White skin is a genetic mutation/variation that allows more UV light to pass thru the skin - so you can produce enough vitamin D in areas where there is less sunlight, like the Northern Hemisphere. Its an adaptation to the environment, when our ancestors moved northwards. In that dark spot, the skin cells have reverted / mutated to produce the pigment again.

So we are all white and black. And some are albinos too.
My guideline versus humans has always been:
"I am equally suspicious but neutral / kind to every person I ever meet, until they show what they are. Then I treat them accordingly."

That has worked pretty well so far. And I could go blind and it would still work.

I hope this is a good reply, for I think I like you mostly :)

PS. Ive been almost killed once.
My attackers were local skinheads. I had passed out on a busstop late at night. I woke up to one of them hitting me in the face with a baton. Then a fist, and I fell to the ground. Then two of his buddies joined in kicking me on the ground until I passed out - a crowd of 15 or so of their friends looking.
Got some cracked bones and passed out for a while. Was fun!
(and they were total strangers of course, looking for some random punching bag. I dont hold it against them - most of the assailants are dead already. Nothing to do with me, but their tendencies to get involved in such...)

NAACP chief: Post's racist cartoon invites assassination

BY John Lauinger
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Sunday, February 22nd 2009, 12:30 AM

Bondareff/AP

NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous calls for a boycott of the New York Post and the removal of editor-in-chief Col Allan.

The head of the nation's oldest civil rights group is urging a boycott of the New York Post - for publishing a cartoon he says is an invitation to assassinate the President.

NAACP President Benjamin Jealous blasted the fact-challenged tabloid for its attempt to apologize for the racially charged cartoon - and said Post editor in chief Col Allan and cartoonist Sean Delonas should get the boot.

Jealous hammered the Post Saturday as NAACP leaders gathered in New York for an annual meeting of the century-old organization, which is still seeking reparations for slavery.

The Post's decision to publish the cartoon "picks off the scabs of all the racial wounds," Jealous said, and is "an invitation to assassination."

His comments came on the heels of a protest outside the newspaper's Manhattan office Friday during which filmmaker Spike Lee called on celebrities to support the boycott.

The cartoon shows the bullet-riddled body of a chimpanzee with two cops standing nearby. One says, "They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill."

Following Thursday's initial protests, the paper issued a lame apology on its Web site and claimed the cartoon was intended to criticize an "ineptly written" federal economic stimulus bill.

But Jealous rejected the Post's mea culpa as "half of an apology - without elaboration."

He and other NAACP leaders said the paper must respond with "serious disciplinary action." If not, they vowed to urge organizations across the country to join in the boycott.

NAACP Chairman Julian Bond rejected the Post's charge that the cartoon was not a racist statement.

"Anyone who is not offended by it does not have any sensitivity," Bond said.With News Wire Services

NBC Explains Gabby Douglas, 'Animal Practice' Promo Snafu
No offense was intended in what was a coincidental occurrence, the network tells THR.

12:35 PM PDT 8/3/2012 by Jordan Zakarin

Immediately after NBC finished its broadcast of American gymnast Gabby Douglas' gold medal-winning performance on Thursday, the network cut to a promo spot for one of its new primetime shows, Animal Practice.

The promo featured the show's star monkey, Crystal, competing on gymnastics rings -- which has drawn criticism on Twitter, as broadcaster Bob Costas had just been speaking of the historical significance of Douglas becoming the first African American woman to win the event. Tod Robberson of the Dallas Morning News called it "supremely thoughtless and undoubtedly insulting to lots of viewers."

On Friday, NBC issued a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, insisting that there was no intended racial significance.

BTW NY Post gets into the act again with a misleading headline about gymnast Aly Raisman:

Jewish gal shows up IOC with a gold salute to Munich 11
Last Updated: 10:38 AM, August 8, 2012
Posted: 2:42 AM, August 8, 2012


It wasn’t a gloved-fist salute from the medal stand, but Jewish-American gymnast Aly Raisman made quite a statement yesterday by winning a gold medal and invoking the memory of the Israeli athletes killed 40 years ago in Munich.

Raisman finished first in the women’s floor exercise, but she deserves to have another medal draped around her neck for having the chutzpah to face the world and do what needed to be done and say what needed to be said.

At the same Olympic Games where bigoted organizers stubbornly refuse to honor the slain athletes with a moment of silence, 18-year-old Raisman loudly shocked observers first by winning, then by paying her own tribute to 11 sportsmen who died long before she was born.

And if that weren’t enough, she won her event with the Hebrew folk song “Hava Nagila” playing in the background.

“Having that floor music wasn’t intentional,” an emotional but poised Raisman told reporters after her performance.

“But the fact it was on the 40th anniversary is special, and winning the gold today means a lot to me.”

Then Raisman stuck the landing.

“If there had been a moment’s silence,” the 18-year-old woman told the world, “I would have supported it and respected it.”

It was 40 years ago at the 1972 Munich Games that members of the Israeli Olympic delegation were taken hostage and eventually killed by Palestinian radicals.

Executed in the massacre were 11 Israeli athletes and officials and a West German police officer.

The martyrs were remembered this week during a London ceremony filled with sadness and reflection.

But not a peep about them has been said publicly in the one place where it counts — at the Summer Games on Olympic soil.

The International Olympic Committee and its president, Jacques Rogge, have refused to properly honor the dead, arguing that the opening ceremony wasn’t an appropriate forum for a moment of silence.

But if the opening ceremony is good enough for James Bond and Mr. Bean, it’s hard to understand why it’s not good enough for 60 seconds of solitude.

“Shame on you International Olympic Committee because you have forsaken the 11 members of your Olympic family,” said Ankie Spitzer, whose husband, Andre, an Israeli fencing coach, was gunned down in the massacre.

“You are discriminating against them only because they are Israelis and Jews,” she went on.

Rogge was an athlete himself at the very Games where the massacre took place, representing Belgium on the sailing team.

“Even after 40 years, it is painful to relive the most painful moments of the Olympic movement,” Rogge said at an unaffiliated service before Spitzer.

NBC’s ridiculous ad timing after Gabby Douglas’s gold medal win
By Tod Robberson / Editorial Writer
trobberson@dallasnews.com
10:02 am on August 3, 2012 | Permalink


Bob Costas last night had just barely uttered his remarks about Gabby Douglas becoming the first African American to win a gold medal in Olympics gymnastics. With her beaming smile having just graced the screen, the network cut to a commercial. And what did they choose? A network promo to a new show, Animal Practice, which opened with a smile-beaming black monkey performing a gymnastics routine.

I’m not one of those people who cries racism whenever stupid things like this happen. This was, however, supremely thoughtless and undoubtedly insulting to lots of viewers. NBC had many hours to plan out this programming, since Gabby Douglas won the event much earlier in the day. NBC knew well in advance what the outcome was and knew exactly what the lineup of commercials would be following Costas’s final remarks about her victory.

They thought about this. And that’s the decision they made?

Heads should roll over this.

‘A verbal lynching’: Far-right French magazine compares black politician to a monkey
By Agence France-Presse

The timing on this is interesting given the big story in France right now...
emptywheel: After Reportedly Being Offered Saudi Weapons Sales, France Tries to Blow Up Iran Deal
Posted on November 9, 2013 by emptywheel

Several weeks after this WSJ article describing a staged Bandar bin Sultan tantrum about US actions, it was revealed the “Western diplomat” involved was a representative of France.

Diplomats here said Prince Bandar, who is leading the kingdom’s efforts to fund, train and arm rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, invited a Western diplomat to the Saudi Red Sea city of Jeddah over the weekend to voice Riyadh’s frustration with the Obama administration and its regional policies, including the decision not to bomb Syria in response to its alleged use of chemical weapons in August.

“This was a message for the U.S., not the U.N.,” Prince Bandar was quoted by diplomats as specifying of Saudi Arabia’s decision to walk away from the Security Council membership.

[snip]

However, the diplomats said, Prince Bandar told them he intends to roll back a partnership with the U.S. in which the Central Intelligence Agency and other nations’ security bodies have covertly helped train Syrian rebels to fight Mr. Assad, Prince Bandar said, according to the diplomats. Saudi Arabia would work with other allies instead in that effort, including Jordan and France, the prince was quoted as saying.

[snip]

In the run-up to the expected U.S. strikes, Saudi leaders asked for detailed U.S. plans for posting Navy ships to guard the Saudi oil center, the Eastern Province, during any strike on Syria, an official familiar with that discussion said. The Saudis were surprised when the Americans told them U.S. ships wouldn’t be able to fully protect the oil region, the official said.

Disappointed, the Saudis told the U.S. that they were open to alternatives to their long-standing defense partnership, emphasizing that they would look for good weapons at good prices, whatever the source, the official said.

In the second episode, one Western diplomat described Saudi Arabia as eager to be a military partner in what was to have been the U.S.-led military strikes on Syria. As part of that, the Saudis asked to be given the list of military targets for the proposed strikes. The Saudis indicated they never got the information, the diplomat said. [my emphasis]

The subtext here is clear: Bandar invited the French representative to Riyadh not just to whine about the US, but also to discuss weapons sales.

And now French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius is scuttling an Iran nuke deal because it is a “suckers deal.” (See also Laura Rozen’s take, as well as her live tweeting the comings and goings at @LRozen.)

Oh, by the way. François Hollande is also due to visit Israel in a week.

It’s fairly clear what’s going on. Saudi Arabia has to forestall an Iran deal, because once that happens the Iran will be in a position to challenge the Saudi position as a swing producer (particularly if you assume Iran and Shia-led Iraq might act in concert).

So France will make an effort to thwart any deal. And if talks fail, they’ll get a big chunk of Saudi Arabia’s considerable weapons spending, at a time when the Saudis will probably be even further ramping up their purchases.

France, it seems, aspires to be the European participant in the growing Saudi-Israeli power block.

Well shit, Prince Bandar was able to talk the neocons into invading Iraq for them, after staging the 9/11 events with their pet al Qaeda proxies. Now he's throwing a fit because he wasnt able to get
the brainwashed US government to fully commit to Syria. Least Bandar was able to get the CIA to continue funding the Saudi al Qaeda brigades in Syria...so not a total loss?

Uh oh and FUCK France. They were the ones secretly orchestrating the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Yeah, I said it.
