First time I traveled to NYC alone learned me some lessons. Got to grand central by taxi to take a commuter train to the event. I was carrying my bags down the stairs and accidentally and gently touched the young black male in front of me on the leg. Dude went off. Screaming that he was going to "eat" me and kill me etc. Frankly, I was terrified as we were mostly alone on a lower platform. This being post-911, some army dudes with big guns were wandering around.

Anyways, he left and I got on the train. I got to the event, and in the evening over drinks told the story. Some fat leftist c%nt with unmatching earrings heard me mimic the way the guy said "iieeetttt c'huu son" and called me a racist loudly, several times. And that was my introduction to crazy American leftists. Now I know. If in the company of strangers while in the US, racial topics are totally out of the question. It is not permissible to make fun of the terrible English of the man who threatens to kill you, if he's black (or Mexican -jjjuuuu gannna git eatin' holms-).

In lower Ontario, I'm sure it is. Maybe Halifax too. Prolly best just to say "crazy leftists" and leave out the "American" part. That was really my first (and only, in North America) negative run in with non-whites.

Gopher:

Just a little jab but I do believe you might be the first OP to hijack your own thread.


Jeff's cigarette advised:

I watched it three times and was tempted to view it a fourth just to watch that pompous ass Mike Wallace squirm. Jewish reporters always point out that they're Jewish whenever they're accused by other minorities of being White, ever noticed that?

to All:

Liberals have no balls and that's why they've fed the monster of victimization that is Black leadership today. Shelby Steele, a Black academic, talks about this in his monumental collection of essays The Content of Our Character, which you'll never see in a university classroom although he works at Stanford's Hoover Institute. It's in an essay, "Being Black and Feeling Blue."

Many Blacks get off on feeling abused--that's the sad truth. There conditioned to it. How else can you explain someone like Julian Bond telling the NAACP (an organization which would have disappeared years ago without a manufactured bogeyman) that anyone who wasn't offended by the cartoon has no sensitivity?

And then you've got Eric Holder saying we're cowardly. No, Eric, we're just tired of all the pissin' and whinin' and finger-pointing. See, what Holder really wants is for there to be a national day of dialogue in which Blacks rage and Whites bow their heads in collective shame and admit to their forefathers' sins in a very personal and contrite way. Followed, of course, by a bill for reparations. Ain't goin' to happen, bruddah, and Holder can kiss my ass.

Some of the biggest racists I've ever met are Black. My favorite comeback:

A few decades ago I was teaching by choice in an inner city mostly Black magnet high school for college bound students. I had this one parent, a real horse's ass Nation of Islam convert who came to a parent-teacher conference and opened by saying, "Mr. _________, you're a racist and before we go one step forward you'd better admit it."

My reply: "I hope that's not true, because that would mean that you and I have something important in common."

The program coordinator grinned at me. It might have been the first time this overbearing parent had been at a loss for words.

His son, a top student, forewent scholarships (affirmative action, of course) to Rice University and Duke University to attend a historically Black college in Florida. His father wanted him to keep his heritage, as if he weren't constantly reminded of it at home. The truth was he was afraid his son couldn't succeed among his real peers.

Beneath every loudmouth like Sharpton is a belly of insecurity. Bank on it.

He asks "which month is white history month" and Wallace (sp?) says "abb behh abbah well I'm Jewish". Good lord. He's whiter than me..

Do American Jews not think they are white? Sure, Sammy Davis Jr. and Lenny Kravitz notwithstanding, but the 60 minutes dude is white white white.
