Anyone heard this one?

[Morella]

Tony tells me that the Senate and House are already putting together a plan to take everyone's 401k and IRAs away and put them into a retirement fund for the "common good", like social security, and that people are scrambling to cash them in. Truth, or horse shit?

Horse shit. Legally they can't do that and if they even try there will be riots in the streets.

Of course maybe that's what the mass prisons are for.

legally they can do it if they pass a tax law enabling them to tax it 100% and please riots? people that have money in 401k are the sensible type. there won't be riots and the big ol ussa will continue the us people.

Riots I say.. People with 401k's are the type that don't trust the government with their money in the first place. If they're not willing to trust it with their money then what else don't they trust it with?

I say that sensible people ARE willing to riot against tyranny and for their money/freedoms and that it is the sheep that will do nothing.

Would Obama, Dems Kill 401(k) Plans?

There were plenty of people at my last employer who had weapons and were prepared to use them, but most of them have either cashed in their 401k plans or lost their jobs in the failing economy.

Next question...why doesn't Black B'wana have a birth certificate?

I've been toying with the idea of buying some oil company stock, now that the price at the pump is coming down. The stock price seems to lead it a little, so that's always risky.

And a humorous note...I hear that black families are naming their children Osama bin Bwamba, or whatever his name is. I honestly can't remember. That sucks for them, because when they get older and decide to change their names to something a little less silly, they'll have a permanent glitch in their FBI files that will delay any application for a security check.

Morella, seriously, why are you such a fucking racist?
Are you afraid of black folks?
Did someone black do you wrong as an impressionable youth, and you associate all black people as that person?
Were you raised by white supremacist losers that blamed their shortcomings, not on the fact that they were ill equipped to deal with the real world, but on blacks because they are "niggers" and are the cause of all their inadequacies?
Or maybe that's you and not your folks?

I have served in the Marine Corps with some of the finest Americans ever. Some just happened to be black. I have neighbors that are black. They watch my house when I'm not home and gather my mail when I take long weekends away. I do the same for them. I have eaten dinner at their place numerous times, as they have at mine. They are great nieghbors. The color of their skin means nothing.

[Scary Guy]

I have nothing against blacks who have nothing against me.

I have everything against racist blacks who feel we owe them something and play the "race card" every chance they get.

I hate the under-educated inner-city rabble that only know how to shoot and use force to get what they want, do a ton of drugs, and can't stop screwing. However that part relates to a lot of the people living in the urban areas, not just black people.

I also hate that nigger (yeah I said it) who raped a friend of mine and left a little something behind (not a kid, although those are STDs too). He can die in a fire and I can completely understand why she is racist, although she realizes it's not right that fear exists.

To be honest I can't tell what Obama is going to do. For all I know he could be the best president since JFK (they're sure comparing the two a lot) or he could make us wish for the days of "W". It's too early to know for certain yet though and a lot can chance in two months time.

Morella, seriously, why are you such a fucking racist?

I'm not a racist, nor was there anything racist in that last message, save what you might have written into it. It seems to me that you are looking for people to call "racist" so that you can put yourself on a pedestal above them. I'm more concerned about people like you than I am about self-segregated black folks themselves. I'm not afraid of the gorilla in the zoo, but of the zookeeper who doesn't believe that the cage needs to be locked. The zombie who would now accuse me of referring to black people as "gorillas" is even worse, not only because he can't understand me, but because while I'm pointing out something dangerous, he is staring at the wart on my finger and seeing that as the problem.

As for being afraid of them, you'd be a fool not to be. I'd like to see you walk through a downtown LA neighborhood alone at night and come out in one piece. It's bad enough in the Midwest, where they hunt in packs. No single white person is safe, alone or even in a small group.

Did you hear that that many self-segregated blacks were arrested for firing weapons into the air when Osama Bahama was elected? Their excuse was always, " Evabady ess was doin' it, so I sedt why not and I got my gun and I done it too. " ( This statement, unfortunately well-paraphrased, was quoted by one of them when interviewed by the news media ). Yet while this is going on, what the country fears are redneck "militia groups" and their "arsenels", a term which refers en masse to any weapon owned by a white person, despite that they are normally fired sur le carton, with proper backdrops, and with extensive safety training.



Ask one of your downtown LA buddies what a trigger lock is, or which cleaning and lubrication products they prefer. Ask them how to test the functionality of the sears in their weapons, how often they replace their return spring, with which weight, and why, or which ammunition gives them the best print on their target. What will you get? Most likely, your wallet stolen. Be sure to tell them that you're a Jew, especially if they're Izzies. That will impress the shit out of them.

We had some nice black people living next door. Eddie, who owned a construction business, who was always trying to get me to go to work with him, and who laughed and asked if we were going into the funeral business when we bought our hearse, was a friend of ours, but his son grew to be a teenager, and when the self-segregationists began courting his son, he was smart enough to sell his house and move out. I don't miss the booming noise from the nigger cars at all, but I miss Eddie. In the "old days", his neighbors would have wanted Eddie to move out, but he did it for his family.

I have a daughter in high school, and I talk to her every day. I know that SSNs ( self-segregating niggers ) make up most of the next generation of blacks, and most likely the current one as well. These SSN kids walked around chanting that if McCain were to win the election, they were going to beat up the first white person they saw. According to the news media, the police in big cities were on alert for a riot after the election no matter who won, but especially if Labwamba did! Soccer syndrome, or is it just time for a househould appliance upgrade?

The military is no more representative of society than prison is. Unfortunately, high school is, because a cross-section of the entire next generation is coming from there. Unfortunately, most black kids in high school are SSNs, because life is a long, hard road for them if they are not. I don't have an answer for this sad, sorry planet's social problems, but trying to build yourself up by calling me a racist isn't going to help a thing.

ran across this

Subject: Pride

This is great.
I have been wondering about
why Whites are racists,
and no other race is.
Proud to be White

Michael Richards makes his point...

Michael Richards better known as
Kramer from TVs
Seinfeld does make a good point.

This was
his defense speech in court after making
racial comments in his
comedy act.
He makes some very interesting points...

Someone
finally said it... How many are actually
paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian
Americans, Arab
Americans, etc. And then there are just
Americans. You pass me on
the street and sneer in my
direction.
You call me 'White boy,'
'Cracker,'
'Honkey,' 'Whitey,' 'Caveman' ...
and that's OK.


But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, T owel head,
Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey,
Beaner,
Gook, or Chink ... You call me a racist. Y ou say that

whites commit a lot of
violence against you... so why are the
ghettos the
most dangerous places to live?

You have the
United Negro College Fund. You have
Martin Luther King Day.
You
have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez
Day. You have Yom Hashoah.
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi. You have the NAACP. You
have BET...
If we had WET (White Entertainment Television)
we'd be racists.
If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us
racists.

If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.

If we had any organization for only whites to
'advance' OUR lives we'd be racists.


We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black
Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber
of Commerce.

Wonder who
pays for that??

A white woman could not be in the Miss Black
American pageant, but any color can be in the M
Miss America pageant.


If we had a college fund that only gave white
students scholarships...You
know we'd be racists.

There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black
Colleges in the US .

Yet if there were 'White colleges' That
would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you
believed that you were
marching for your race and rights.

If we marched for our race and rights,
you would call us racists.


You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange,
and you're not afraid
to announce it.

But when we announce our white pride, you call
us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But,
when a white police officer shoots a b lack gang
member or beats up a black drug-dealer running
from the law and posing a threat to society,
you call him a racist.

I am proud...But you call me a racist.


Why is it that only whites can be racists??

There is nothing improper
about this e-mail...
Let's see which of you are proud enough to
send it
on.
I sadly don't think many will. That's why we
have
lost most of OUR RIGHTS
in this country. We won't stand up for
ourselves!
BE PROUD TO BE WHITE !
It's not a crime yet, but
getting real close!

Michael Richards makes his point...

Did Michael Richards actually say all that? I've seen this kind of email kicking around the intertubes for a while, and i kinda doubt he said that. There are lots of similar emails that attribute pro-conservative, christian, etc quotes to celebrities. My general rule of thumb is to never believe any thing like that, unless there is a link to a credible news story.

This warrants some further research.

[EvilManor]

He did not write it, nor could it have constituted his "defense speech in court," given that there were no charges filed and no court trial ever took place. see About.com:Urban Legends

So Michael Richards didn't say it, but does that make it any less true?
