Just the other day there was a story talking about Philadelpehia, MS electing a black man and it just oozed PC on how the South has changed....
Looks like the North hasn't.
Somebody should tell these racist Yankees that the color won't wash off into the water!
You know, I orginally had a nasty comment here. But I just took it out. These people know who they are and what they are. I don't need to comment.
But you know, if the people who made these comments want these children to grow up to vote for a person based on that person's policies and qualifications rather than their race.... well they should start acting like race has nothing to do with who you swim with.
More than 60 campers from Northeast Philadelphia were turned away from a private swim club and left to wonder if their race was the reason.
I heard this lady, she was like, 'Uh, what are all these black kids doing here?' She's like, 'I'm scared they might do something to my child,'" said camper Dymire Baylor.
The Creative Steps Day Camp paid more than $1900 to The Valley Swim Club. The Valley Swim Club is a private club that advertises open membership. But the campers' first visit to the pool suggested otherwise.
"When the minority children got in the pool all of the Caucasian children immediately exited the pool," Horace Gibson, parent of a day camp child, wrote in an email. "The pool attendants came and told the black children that they did not allow minorities in the club and needed the children to leave immediately."

Yes, there seems to be residual racism in some areas and segments of the country:
ReplyDeleteTo stave off dementia! Yes, today the befuddled screech owls on Fox & Friends were discussing a study that states that those that stay married fend off Alzheimer's and dementia better than lonely divorcees. Brian Kilmeade took issue with this.
He didn't trust the study because it was done in Finland and Sweden and the Finns and the Swedes stay "pure" by only marrying each other. Whereas in America, everyone marries everyone (so long as they're white and their partner is white. Oh, and straight!) So therefore the study doesn't mean anything.
Suddenly the clouds parted and a thin ray of sunshine shone down on the pesky corn nut that is Gretchen Carlson—descendant of some Nordic "species", for sure—and she ably, if simply, mocked crazy dumb Kilmeade for being crazy and dumb and possibly suffering from dementia.
It was a fine moment of morning television. Incidentally, after discussing this execrable show with my sister over seltzers at a picnic table in Rhode Island this weekend, she called me this morning and said "I tried watching Fox & Friends. I couldn't even get through five minutes. How can you possibly watch this every day?" And then I told her that I don't, that there are lovely video people who watch it for me and I cackled into the phone.
So, in short, thanks guys!
Well, I guess the author was looking for a way to attack Fox, but I can't see what that has to do with the subject of the post.
ReplyDeleteAs for mixed marriages.... Perhaps he has never heard of Obamie????
DA, knock off the BS.
You don't think that's a racist way of thinking, that Finns and Swedes are "pure" compared to us Americans?
ReplyDeleteHe didn't trust the study because it was done in Finland and Sweden and the Finns and the Swedes stay "pure" by only marrying each other. Whereas in America, everyone marries everyone (so long as they're white and their partner is white. Oh, and straight! So therefore the study doesn't mean anything.
Thanks for the laughs.
Oh, and if you want me to quit laughing, quit messing up your titles.
ReplyDeleteLooks like he made a claim that they don't marry outside... and that he doesn't trust the study because the genetics don't match America's.....
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean...???
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.
a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.
I sure don't think so.
You Lefties see a racist behind every FNC desk...
BTW - Thanks for playing secretary... do you also pick up cleaning?? Make coffee?
