Questions of racism in hurricane photo captions; Yahoo responds
RAW STORY


A French news agency has yanked a photograph surrounding the New Orleans hurricane that raised questions of racism, RAW STORY has learned.


http://rawstory.com/images/other/afpphoto.jpg

The photograph by Agence France Presse shows two white hurricane survivors carrying food as they wade through flood waters. The caption reads, "Two residents wade through chest-deep water after finding bread and soda from a local grocery store after Hurricane Katrina came through the area in New Orleans, Louisiana."


The second, by the Associated Press, shows a black man, who also carries food. The caption reads, "A young man walks through chest deep flood water after looting a grocery store in New Orleans on Tuesday, Aug. 30 2005. Flood waters continue to rise in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina did extensive damage..."

Critics, including Salon.com, focused on the words "finding" and "looting."

In a statement, Yahoo News says AFP asked them to pull the photos, and they have complied: "Since the controversy began, the supplier of one of the photos – AFP – has asked all its clients to remove the photo from their databases. Yahoo! News has complied with the AFP request."

Some, defending the captions, note that the photographs are from two separate agencies, and say that they are not necessarily racist in nature.

YAHOO NEWS STATEMENT:

To Yahoo! News readers:

News photos are an especially popular section of Yahoo! News. In part, this is because we present thousands of news photos from some of the leading news services, including The Associated Press, Reuters, and Agence France Press. To make this volume of photos available in a timely manner, we present the photos and their captions as written, edited and distributed by the news services with no additional editing at Yahoo! News.

In recent days, a number of readers of Yahoo! News have commented on differences in the language in two Hurricane Katrina-related photo captions (from two news services). Since the controversy began, the supplier of one of the photos – AFP – has asked all its clients to remove the photo from their databases. Yahoo! News has complied with the AFP request.

Yahoo! News regrets that these photos and captions, viewed together, may have suggested a racial bias on our part. We remain committed to bringing our readers the full collection of photos as transmitted by our wire service partners.

Not Yet anyway.

That's not politicizing, it's fact.

Why not just use the generic term "ASSHOLES" no matter what their skin color is?

You racist bastards need to pull your heads outta your asses!!!

That said, anytime you see video footage of people looting stores, they are always Black Americans.

To call them "African-Americans" is stupid, they were not born in Africa, they were born in the United States. Therefore they are AMERICANS.

It is a fact that there is a large percentage of poor people who are Black Americans. And obviously, MANY of them in N.O. were either too poor, or too stupid to be able to flee the storm.

IF I were that poor and/or that ignorant, and I were starving, goddam right I would be doing what I could to survive. If I had to loot from stores to eat, I surely would.

But without shooting anyone.
:cool:

I will say this: If I were a criminal/hoodlum/gangbanger, and there was no LAW enforcement, and no eletricity, and I had several days to operate without any interference, my main goal would be to find a bank, bring a fucking welding torch with me, and I would be the richest poor hoodlum you ever saw!

I doubt if even the BCE can cause hurricanes. But what they DID do was gut the budget for programs which would have repaired the levees around New Orleans which would have minimized the damage, and probably prevented the flooding altogether. And the primary reason for cutting the funding was to steal the money for the illegal inexcusable invasion and occupation of Iraq.

Securing a major city against natural disasters IS "Homeland Security". Invading some shithole on the other side of the planet is NOT.

And now Chertoff, whose name is Russian for "THE DEVIL", has taken border patrol guards from Texas and sent them to New Orleans to harrass the people referred to as "******s" in this thread, leaving an even bigger hole in the Texas border.

Homeland Security? Yeah right....

And of course that would have never happenned if the National Guard were able to do the job they were meant to do. Instead of being forced to act as a cut rate benefits version of the Army in shithole Iraq.

It's ALL bullshit. And that fucking monkey deserves to hang for all of it.

I don't think the National Guard are 'harassing' innocent people, FORD. These '******s', as Elvis calls them, are harassing other civilians and engaging in criminal acts (murder, rape, arson, theft, battery, etc. etc.). It's Law & Order time, Jerry Orbach style.

The Psychology of Looting
What's Behind the Lawlessness in Wake of Hurricane Katrina?

By BRYAN ROBINSON
ABCNews (http://abcnews.go.com/Health/HurricaneKatrina/story?id=1087898&page=1)

By BRYAN ROBINSON

Sept. 2, 2005 — Sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures, and there have been few places in America more desperate — or increasingly lawless — than New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina's devastation.

The images of Katrina's wrath have varied in the days since the hurricane ripped through the Gulf Coast and ravaged The Big Easy. People have been seen standing on the rooftops of their submerged homes, holding signs that say, "Help Us"; authorities have reported seeing bodies floating in the water and corpses rotting in the streets amid concerns of an outbreak of disease; displaced, dehydrated Katrina survivors have been transferred from evacuation shelters in Louisiana's Superdome to a temporary new home in Houston's Astrodome.

And there has been looting and lawlessness, from residents taking food, diapers and other necessities from abandoned grocery stores to people lugging TV sets and beer in areas not submerged in dirty floodwater. New Orleans appeared to descend into anarchy, with reports of rapes in the Superdome and local law enforcement officials not showing up to combat arson, gunfire and carjackings in the streets.

The promise of the dispersion of 10,000 additional National Guard troops to maintain order did little to soothe increasingly angry Katrina victims who have endured the lack of running water, sweltering conditions and stench in the Superdome or otherwise suffered as they waited for authorities to come to their rescue. In these kinds of desperate, and apparently lawless, conditions, experts say people will throw away their normal sense of ethics and do anything to survive.

"When you have a situation as extreme as Katrina, people have lost their sense of security, control, protection and shelter," said David Sattler, associate professor of psychology at Western Washington University. "They fall into basic rules of survival mode. Some feel that they're going to do what they need to do to survive. They're going to do what they need to do to get the basic necessities."

Acceptable Looting …

In an exclusive interview with "Good Morning America's" Diane Sawyer, President Bush said there should be a no-tolerance approach to looters.

"I think there ought to be zero tolerance of people breaking the law during an emergency such as this, whether it be looting or price gouging at the gasoline pump, or taking advantage of charitable giving or insurance fraud," Bush said. "And I've made that clear to our attorney general. The citizens ought to be working together."

But some believe that desperate survivors who ran out of basic necessities, or took food for their families and hungry children and could no longer wait for rescuers to come should not be blamed in a disaster as extreme as Katrina.

"This is a life-and-death situation. From the perspective of the looter, 'Who knows what tomorrow will bring?' " said Joseph Napoli, co-author of "Resiliency in the Face of Disaster and Terrorism: 10 Things to Do to Survive." "The late-night comedians have joked about those who were carrying TVs. On my television screen I saw people taking the basic necessities — food and supplies. And can we really fault them for that?"

… Versus Unacceptable Looting

Television viewers may be more sympathetic to people seen stealing food, diapers and other necessities. But they may not be as forgiving to the looter who took a television in the aftermath of Katrina. Some of the Katrina victims may have a stronger sense of morals than others, experts say.

Other Katrina victims may have followed a mob mentality and concluded that they could participate in looting activities since others were doing it.

"Under such intense situations, under crowd pressure, if so many others are doing it, then others are going to do it," Napoli said. "Introductory free offers are a very successful sales strategy. But in situations like these, people can go too far in satisfying their intense needs."

Beyond Morals and Mob Pressure

But the explanation may also go beyond morality and mob mentality.

Some looters may have been driven to the edge by literally seeing their world turned upside down and all remnants of their homes and neighborhoods wiped out by Katrina. Others may have latent character traits that Katrina's aftermath ignited and may participate in looting only under these circumstances.

Socioeconomic status before Katrina made landfall also may have planted the roots of looting and lawlessness in some hurricane survivors.

"You may have someone who is of lower income, has minimum resources, minimal possessions and living day to day and — this is very important — has no insurance. No rental insurance, no housing insurance," said Sattler. "They have no means of recovering what little they had and probably, if someone in the household does have a job, they may not have a job to return to when they are let back into their communities, and they don't know when they will have a source of income again. They may see this unguarded TV and think, 'I can take this and maybe I can sell this in a week and make a little bit of money.""

Many people have been shocked by the images of looting and violence. According to Sattler, those viewers are just not accustomed to being without the barest of essentials, like running water, and are not used to seeing Americans in that kind of situation. However, the aftermath of Katrina only reflects the spectrum of daily human emotions and actions, but under extreme circumstances.

"Why are we shocked? We are seeing an intense array of usual human behavior," said Napoli. "Some people are going to take things, some people are going to be honest and some are going to be dishonest. What's shocking others is the intensity in which we're seeing it."

"But," Napoli continued. "This is not an ordinary situation. Any disaster causes chaos and disorder. That's why we work so hard to maintain an orderly society."

Still, the havoc and grief sparked by Hurricane Katrina has inspired acts of generosity. Americans have donated millions to various charities and residents across the nation have reportedly offered to open their homes to some Katrina evacuees.

"It is in times like these when we see how much we need each other," said Sattler. "I don't think this is being done out of fear that this could happen to me and I would hope someone would help me out. I think it speaks genuinely highly of humanity. Really, this isn't a story of the looters. Only a small percentage of people are looting. It is about the heroes and those who help others in need."

If the cops are turning in their badges during a crisis like this, then I find nothing wrong with people going into a destroyed grocery store for food that'll rot in a few days anyway. If there's nobody to provide law and order, then citizens have to defend themselves and provide for themselves. It's every man for himself. It's easy for somebody in Washington DC to say that there's no tolerance for looting, but when you've got cops giving up, the gig's up.

I know yesterday when the Guard showed up at the Superdome the people straightened the fuck right up and got herded into a big group surrounded by the soldiers.

Thing is though, it's not about race, it's about poverty...

Poverty breeds ignorance, which breeds drug abuse, which leads to theft, murder, and so on....

One of the first things I recall a college professor saying was that "90% of what passes for racism in this country is classism." It's very true, I seen some white people steal in various past work situations. The color of their skin had nothing do with it...

The truth is that New Orleans is a very poor city, and it happens to be over one-third black...

If these were middle-class blacks living in a Maryland county during a similiar situation, you'd never hear about this sort of crime wave committed by mostly black thugs...

32% poverty level.

Thirty two percent. That particular cross-section was there 3 days out in the gulf.

So the federal government is supposed to pro-actively subsidise the looming aftermath? Yep, it should have. If it had, the inherit problem wouldn't have been addressed either.

You've got a fucking city that takes in a HUGE tourism gravy train. Keep it coming. They could have built a goddamned HOOVER FUCKING DAM around the Mississippi river mouth by now.

I have nothing but compassion for these folks...it's horrible. The mayor of the city of New Orleans is writhing in guilt. It's local fucking government folks. The 32% was in the Superdome, looting, and chopping their roofs out.

This is not to say federal mobilization sucked. It did.

IT SUCKED.

Not to mention the looming infections from all that sewage and......fuck, this is just tragic for them all.

How could they not have been ready to act?
It was well now that the levee's couldn't take a Cat-5 hurricane, it wa barely rated to handle a Cat-3.

It's Fucking Madness...........


I had to turn it off bro. I listened to NPR's coverage today during a road trip. Just horrible. If you've ever heard that NPR shit, it's annoying enough with all the promo's for their interviews from 1997.

They touched on a bit of the levee shit and interview'd some former parish sheriffs. I tunedthefuckout after the profanity-laden mayor's speech.

God bless 'em.

Those that haven't been gotten to should not be held back from walking out of there.
I sort of understand why they are doing it, but this is day fucking 6!

And to see President Bush hugging the refugees looking up to see where the cameras are and turning towards them to ensure a good shot just fucking infuriates me to no end.

God forgive me for ever supporting that man...he's pathetic.

They would have to shoot me to keep me there.

It's got to be tough enough on Shep Smith being a closeted gay guy at a right wing extemist propaganda network. You can tell the guy's really disgusted at his employers over this shit. Look for him to defect to CNN or MSRNC within the next 90 days. Even Geraldo was starting to look human.

As for Hannity, drop that fucking piece of shit in the Superdome and lock him in there for 72 hours with everything that's going on. Then let's say if he's still talking shit.

1. The local and state authorities had 5 fucking days. What did they do? OOooooh they actually allowed people who were driving on the freeway to drive the WRONG WAY!!!!

Gee I AM impressed.
:rolleyes:

Those fucking idiots are getting what they deserve now. Once the crisis part is over (if you can ever say it will be over) oh in about a month or two, those fucking idiots need to resign!!


Hell, fuck that.

FIRE THEIR FUCKING ASSES NOW AND LET THE U.S. ARMY TAKE OVER!!!!

At least the military has some semblence of order, and can methodically set things straight.

2. As I said before, you starving? Feel free to bust in this window and have something to eat.

There are at the very LEAST Hundreds of thousands of people who now have NOTHING!!!!

They lost every fucking thing they own!!! All of their possessions! The family bible...all their clothes...all their paperwork and documentation....fucking just about anything that meant anything to them.
Not to mention the loved ones who have been lost.

Yes, loot for survival. But leave the TV sets alone. You do not have cable down there right now anyway, or electricity.

3. Elvis? Leave the racism shit in your head. We do not need it here. Regardless of color of skin, we all put our shoes on one at a time. You are no more perfect than anyone else on this planet.

When desperation sets in, people are apt to do desperate things. Does not matter if they are blue and have 8 fingers on each hand, two asses and no dick. All humans will react in a similar fashion when survival is at stake.

4. It would be interesting to see how Japan would react. They have a philosophy over there: Fix the problem, not the blame.

In America, if something fucks up, the hunt begins immediately to see WHOSE FAULT IT IS!!!

"WHO IS THE GUILTY PARTY? IS IT HIM??? OK EVERYBODY POINT YOUR FINGER AT THE MOTHERFUCKER!!!

STRING HIM UP!!!

KILL!!!

DIE!!!"

Etc. Etc. Etc.

In Japan, for the most part, they strive to be efficient in whatever they do. Sure, perhaps somebody fucked up and caused something bad to happen. But that person knows they are at fault. It is not necessary for everybody to start screaming at them over it. They will feel guilty enough about it without all the ruckus.
Better to just expend all that energy on actually fixing the problem.

YOU FIX NOW, TALK LATER!!!

5. I predict this is going to be the straw that breaks the Bush Administration's back. Simply due to the American public's need to have a scapegoat.

Bush better start figuring out a place in the backwoods of Montana to go hide.

The rumblings have already begun increasing in volume. Does not matter if Bush actually is to blame. He, like the captain of his ship, must accept blame for the failings of those in his administration.

If it was Japan, the Prime Minister would resign in disgrace. At least they have a sense of honor over there.

Something sorely lacking in America, and definitely lacking in The White House.


6. All this bitching at EACH OTHER is not going to solve anything. It was not OUR FAULT this happened, and it is useless to waste our breath pointing fingers (HAHA lookit item #1!!!! LMFAO!!!)....even though I am pointing my fingers DIRECTLY AT THOSE FUCKING IDIOTS!!!

:D

I have posted enough on the subject.

Sometime in the very near future, I will certainly take part in donating cash or whatever. I have some family business that I must take care of that is going to break me financially for the next two weeks.

However, anyone who lives outside of the affected areas who does NOT donate something is a pathetic, cold-heart fuck, and should be shot, stabbed, deacapitated, castrated, disemboweled, torn up into itsy-bitsy pieces and buried alive!!!!

*ahem*

There is a check point set up on the highway outside the dome at this minute and they WON'T let the people walk out down the highway for relief.

Something fishy here. I'll know more tomorrow and tell you what I think. You don't starve babies to death just for "security."

But then these are the same people who arranged to starve Iraqi babies so now they are caught doing it to their own.

This is a government run by buffoons. The resources of the country are stretched to it's limits in Iraq. And now there are over 10,000 dead in America, because a levee broke where the tax money to repair them was cut to be used for protecting other peoples freedom in Iraq.

Nice job.

Watch the revolution begin with these days.

Bourbon blues on the street loose and complete
Under skies of smoky blue-green
I can't Forksake the dixie dead shake
So we dance the sidewalk clean
My memory is muddy what's this river I'm in
New Orleans is sinking man and I don't want to swim

Colonel Tom What's wrong? What's Going On
You can't tie yourself up for a deal
He said" Hey North yo south shut yo big mouth
You gotta do what you feel is real."
Ain't got no picture postcards ain't go no souvenirs
My baby she don't know me when I'm thinking about thoes years

Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire
Sucking up to someone just to stoke the fire
Picking out the highlights of the scenery
Saw a little cloud looked a little like me

I had My hand in the river
My feet back up on the banks
Looked up to the lord above and said hey man thanks
Some time I feel so good I gotta scream
She says Gordie baby I know exactly what you mean
She said, she said I swear to god she said

My memory is muddy what's this river I'm in
New Orleans is sinking man and I don't want to swim

The word "******" does not a racist make. I use it, but I'm not a racist. If I see a black guy looting a TV during a crisis like this, he's a fucking ******, plain and simple.

If he's looting food, no problem there.

If I see a black guy robbing a corner store, he's a fuckinh ******, plain and simple. If I see a black man making an honest living, he's no ******.

Don't hand me this generic racist bullshit.

Having said that, ELVIS is a dick for many other reasons, but I don't know if he's a racist or not.

Bush is the biggest criminal in all of this. Why don't you call him a "******"?

Is Chertoff a "******"?

Who are the "******s" in the Israel/Palestinian situation? Both are guilty of war crimes.

BTW, I don't think the use of the word "******" by whitey necessarily makes them a racist since a lot of African-Americans use that word also. But it sure is a big symptom of racism if it's used freely and hatefully.

It's pretty silly for anyone to forget that 90% of the victims of this are victims of "black-on-black crime."

Simply using the word ****** is not itself racist. Racism is the sentiment and context behind the use of the word. To answer FORD's question, to me a "******" is a black person who ALSO happens to be a low life piece of shit. some examples include:

Black drug dealers
Black thieves
Black lowlifes of any sort.

******s one and all. So it is race combined with the character or lack thereof, that makes one a "******" versus a "non-******".

At least in my use of the word.....................

Let me tell you a little story BBB:

About 10 years ago, my good friend Fred pulled me aside and said "Mezro, there are african americans and there are ******s."

I managed Fred at one job and ended up hiring him as the operations manager for my company. He was with me for years until he finished up his masters degree. Oh, and Fred is an african american.

My point is the word "******" accurately describes a certain segment of african americans much like "white trash" fits many caucasians. I know the difference and I think most educated people do as well.

Mezro...am I a racist?...nope...because I don't have a problem with african americans...but I do have a problem with ******s...as do the majority of people in this country...what we need are more african americans and fewer ******s...hope I cleared that up...

Point taken. I think that's what Elvis was trying to get across.

I'm just saying that the use of one simple word, like others here have said, does not a racist make. I think that's how Elvis is using the word also. He's getting nailed for it.

In my kid's school, the Blacks greet each other with the word "******" like its nothing. I don't care what anyone says, there is NO difference in who uses THAT word. Blacks can't expect other races to stop using that word until they do. My neighbor is the Principal of that school and she agrees. She is Black.

I'm sorry, but with ALL due respect to Mez and Bri, I disagree.

And I have grown to admire and respect BOTH of these guy's opinions.

WRONG is WRONG regardless of "context".


I don't care how many people use them, I feel there is a moral high ground for us to NOT stoop to racial epiteths [ sp?] to convey our points or feelings.

Just as I feel there is NO context worthy of me using the term K*ke, Goo*, or Spi*, I would never resort to N******

I cannot imagine watching Tsunami victimes and saying "look at those Goo*s stealing food"

We are all human beings. For better or worse. But let's NOT start to justify the usage of such slurs in ANY context. It just lowers our arguments to hateful rhetoric.

Judge not, lest ye be judged, My children.

For ye knoweth not the road that these people in New Orleans have walked, lest ye hath walked it yourselves.

Some things that have been done there will be forgiven when they stand before Me, and some things will not. But that will be determined on what was in their heart, and not the pigmentation of their skin.

Those who use inflammatory names based on race are not honoring My commandment to love thy neighbor as thyselves.

Remember that a thief and murderer asked for My forgiveness as he was hanging on the cross next to Me. Do ye think I would have considered the color of the man's skin as a factor.

The word "******" is not spoken in the Kingdom of God. And verily, there is a reason for that.

Ye distinguish one man from another by a racist word, and then ye apply that racist word to those who commit serious sins.

But thy context make it seem as though the skin color is the basis of the sin.

And that is wrong, Gregory, for all have sinned. Which by thy logic would make all black people "******s". Moreover, it would maketh YOU one as well.

Using this word is only a false premise that some mortals use to make themselves look better than those whom they accuse. But ye knoweth from My teachings that this is not the way ye should think.

There are no "******s", Gregory. Only sinners who hath been forgiven, and those who hath not. Look upon thy neighbors (quite literally in thy case) in that context and judge not as ye help them. And remember that ye are supposed to be representing Me :)

Why do I call myself a ****** you ask me?
Well it's because motherfuckers want to blast me
And run me outa my neighborhood
They label me as a dope dealer
Yo! And say that I'm no good
But I can't find jobs so ******s wouldn't have to go out
Gave up some dope on the corner so they could show out
When the cops came they gave a fake name
Because the life in the streets is just a head game
So therefore to make more
A fifteen year old black kid will go and rob a liquor store
And get shot in the process
He ate up a nine bullet and now he's put to rest

Why do I call myself a ******, you ask me?
I guess it's the way shit has to be
Back when I was young gettin a job was murder
Fuck flippin burgers
'Cause a deserve a nine-to-five I can be proud of
That I can speak loud of
And to help a ****** get out of.
Yo! The concrete playground
But most motherfuckers only want you to stay down
But I'm a smart motherfucker you see
One of the best producers in the rap music industry
Gettin paid like a mother fucker
A young brother who don't give a fuck about another

Why do I call myself a ******, you ask me?
Because police always wanna harass me
Every time that I'm rollin
They swear up and down that the car was stolen
Make me get faced down in the street
They throw the shit out my car on the concrete
In front of a residence
A million white motherfuckers on my back like I shot the President

Why do I call myself a ******, you ask me?
Because my mouth is so mother fuckin nasty
Bitch this, bitch that
****** this, ****** that
In the mean while my pockets are gettin fat
Gettin paid to say this shit here
Makin more in a week than a doctor makes in a year
So, why not call myself a ******?
It's better than pulling the trigger and goin up the river
And don't I get called a ****** anyway?
Booked as a motherfucker and locked away
So... so, cut out all that bull shit
Yo! I guess I'll be a nigga for life

{ ******s, crack-heads, thieves.
If there's a hell below, we're all gonna go. }


******. ******. ******
******. ******
******, please
I'm treated like a fuckin disease.
You say: why can I call myself a ****** so quick?
Cause I can reach in my draws and pull out a bigger dick
Yo! ******s say ****** we cool
But, cracker say ****** not to fuck up
But I got to be a fast ******
Not to be the last ******
Or I have to beat your ass, ******
In the city you see action first
Then hear about it later
In a verse I curse
Because I [?] with this to keep my shit straight bumpin'
Murder created by the streets of Compton
I get it from the underground poet
I live it, I see it, and I write it
Because I know it
And if you think I'm fucking your wife
Your mother fuckin' right
Yo! Because I'm a ****** for Life

******, this
******, that
The actual fact is that I'm black
And bound to attract
The attention of another
I mean the other
But I'm a mother fucker that'll have them running for cover
You see, I don't give a fuck about nothing
Except getting paid, getting bitches, and [?] with stitches
Which is all needed to read it and find a rhyme
And then it's time to say
The ******'s here to stay
But what about the fake ******s, the house ******s
To get paid quick they gotta suck a fat dick
But NWA is outta your mother fuckin' range
We ain't gonna change a mother fuckin' thing

I call myself a ****** 'cause my skin won't whiten
I call myself a ****** 'cause the shit that I'm writing
Hypes me, hypes other mother fuckers around me
And that's the reason why they want to surround me
And ask me: why do I call myself a ******-o
Ain't none of their fuckin' business 'cause I'll let the trigger go
So get out of my presence, and get out of my sight
'Cause MC Ren is a ****** for Life

You're a ****** 'til you die
If you're a poor ******, then you're a poor ******
If you're a rich ******, you're a rich ******
But you never stop being a ******
And if you get to be educated, you's an educated ******

It's plain to see, you can't change me

I know, but you see the thing is with the word is well how one's intention is applied in it's usage. I agree it is a horrible and offensive word, and it is mostly applied towards others with malicious intentions claiming the person to be well, "less than human" of a sorts, and attempting to take their humanity away from them. Denying what is theirs, it is a higher form of attack that the speaker may not even be aware of, or they may well are.

So many of us are "******s" in the eyes of others based on their perception of us, a people who may differ, being outside of their scope of vision, perhaps even a threat to their viewpoints of the world around them. Then the application is given with such hatred and venom that one can see the givers true nature and meaning fro mit's application.


A word is a word, and the history of a word cannot be denied nor would I ever claim to assume how offensive and hurtful it could be for I am not black nor am I descendant of Slaves in the USA. Albeit I am Irish, and well the Irish were always considered the "******s of europe", so maybe there is an understanding inherently, I don't know.



What is interesting is how black culture today has attempted to take away the power of the word "******" when applied in a hateful and malicious manner and morphing it into "Nigga", which can mean friend, brother, compartiot, and people who may very well be black. It also can have a negative meaning, like someone is a "fucked up nigga". I applaud black cultures attempt at diffusing of the word, even if it may not be intentional, although I think it is. A word is a word, but meaning, intetion, and power are given by the giver and the receiver. In Elvis' usage of the word you easily see his frustration and perhaps an inner hated, maybe or maybe not revealing something deeper. Racism does exist and people may say that, " i have black friend's" or whatever blah blah, but one's colors are revealed under times of stress and duress when one is pushed to reveal their inner nature.

Of course we can all change through time and learning and understanding, to alter that nature. Maybe Elvis isn't racist, but maybe there is something there, maybe not. I won't assume to know, but obviously something was revealed. I laugh at racial slang personally and will call myself a fucking stupid mick all of the time, I don't care. Race does exist, and racism still has power still, and we need more time to learn from our mistakes. I say laugh at it, reveal it, and well hopefully learn to move past it.

You can also call those of other races names and be saved. Just like blacks can call whites 'honkeys' and still be saved.

Believers in Christ are not perfect, Lounge. They strive to be, but the flesh is still corrupt. Christians are prone to mistakes just like any other human being.

If you knew these things, you wouldn't attack Elvis with such gusto.

George W. Bush might make it to heaven before some of the people attacking him. God Only Knows, as Brian Wilson would say.

But once ye hath been saved, ye should no longer do these things. For if ye continue in the same sins as ye did before, then how can ye be My disciple?

Gregory hath set up the reactions he gets to his statements here. He knows that the words he uses against My children are wrong. There are no "races" and there is no need for racist terms.

Leave the racism shit in your head.
Do you think generally the black race is generally inferior to the white race?
Then why the FUCK aren't you there helping people like a "good Christian" instead of in here throwing racial slurs around.
I'm sure everyone here can agree there is no place here for racist slangs like Elvis made.
YOU on the other hand are a racist, hypocritical asshole.
Who would Jesus call a ******?
If he's looting food, no problem there.
You really enjoy using that word don't you you hick idiot.
Bush is the biggest criminal in all of this.
Do you think black people are more predisposed to criminal acts?
WRONG is WRONG regardless of "context".
A criminal is a criminal


You guys slay me. You let the press push every button you own. Simple mass appeal bullshit is being used on you by government and the media and this isn’t conspiracy theory bullshit. And I’ve never seen so many weak chinned people post in one place. Contradiction is not hypocrisy. Contradiction is closer to denial.
Who here is in denial that for years we’ve been told what great job our socialistic public assistance programs have been doing and how we all need to do more? Wrong.
The water flushed the cockroaches to the surface and put the light of day on them for your television viewing pleasure. No amount of money is going to put them back in the walls now. All those years and money spent telling us all how “multiculturalism” was going to make the nation stronger, was and is a lie.

The people that matter are: people that are leading, helping, participating, volunteering, enduring, and sharing. This is what you won’t find in a democracy, only in a republic.
Years ago President George Washington said about the wonderful pro-government Tories after a couple hanged themselves: "One or two have done what a great number ought to have done long ago - committed suicide. By all accounts there never existed a more miserable set of beings than these wretched creatures now are."

All I see everywhere and especially in this situation is bunch of pro-government assholes making a lot of future gain off this situation instead of standing shoulder to shoulder with the people that matter.

Back in the time of President George Washington, blacks, whites, French, Spanish, et all stood shoulder to shoulder for independence. They weren’t multicultural, they knew what we’ve forgotten. "the laws of Nature and Nature's God" belong to man, not some asshole governor or mayor or half assed president.

My brother and I have been nurses in the New Orleans area for many years. We both have countless black friends and have known literally thousands of black patients in the area...

They are scared to death of the criminal element in their own communities. Drugs, murder, rape, theft, etc. was rampant, and nobody was doing anything about it...

It was common knowledge that police officers would not go into these areas, even for reports of murders...


Maybe someone else decided to do something asbout it...
