Duck, Duck, Sue!

Another Black family is suing Disneyland for character ignoring children.

Another family is suing Disneyland because of a character refusing to hug their child.

Let's get this out the way!

The Drudge Report once again is the watering hole for racism. Masquerading itself as a conservative news agitating blog, the website caters to extremists. The reclusive founder Matt Drudge employs three others to monitor his website for the latest shock and awe in America. The website panders to outlandish race-baiting and white supremacists frequently use this website as a recruitment tool.

What's more fun than riling up White folks with stories about Blacks.

Any black story even the ones that including President Barack Obama is catnip for racists.

Republicans and conservatives flock to the website. Perennial loser Mitt Romney, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity praised the website and usually get their talking points from the website. The Drudge Report links conservative and select liberal blogs for stories. Then it puts a spin on the stories.

I must admit this too. I read the website often and usually find stories that mention Blacks. When I click on the link, usually I zero in on the comment section. Immediately I look into what is being said. The first comments are usually a word salad of race, bigotry, and Obama name drops.

Even if the story has a positive spin on life is expected to have a nasty comment with either racism or Obama in it. The Drudge Report is a reason to why the Republicans are criticized as "The Stupid Party".

Today, the Anaheim, California theme park is under fire yet again for having its famed characters avoiding the Black families for the White family.

First the Black family (no pun intended) from Northern California was upset over the White Rabbit from Alice and Wonderland not hugging their son.

Now the White family (no pun intended) from San Diego are upset that their children Razzi and Ryder White were brushed off by famed character Donald Duck.

Nastasia claims that rather than play with her son, Donald deliberately walked away from him to play with a white baby in a stroller.

The Whites said they waited patiently for their turn - long enough that even the baby's parents urged Donald to play with Razzi - but Donald ignored them.

The White family are suing the Anaheim theme park for its beloved character deliberately ignoring their children.
Nastasia asked for picture, but says Donald instead went to a young white girl on a bench on hugged her.

Nastasia White was quacking mad! She stated that the guy in the costume ignored her children and went to a  White couple and their children.

She complained to the park management and was sent a letter offering her passes to the front of attraction lines for her 'disappointment.'

The Whites are the second family to accuse the performers of being racist, with a Spring Valley family filing suit against Disneyland, saying that the White Rabbit had ignored their sons, niece, and nephew.

Attorney Dan Gilleon is now representing both families.

'I've gotten many emails and voicemails that I'm looking into. What this tells me is this isn't an isolated incident. It doesn't mean Disneyland is racist, but they have some people in the company who aren't playing by the rules and are being discriminatory,' GIlleon said.

Gilleon said he'd subpoena Disney for surveillance video of the incidents.

Disney officials said they did not believe the original complaint was about discrimination, only a child being ignored, and would not confirm whether the incidents involved two employees playing different characters.

This is ridiculous.

I don't want to say this is a joke, but I just don't understand to how The Blacks and The Whites were shunned by the White Characters for the White families?

I know it's a bad pun but that's how I look at these stories. I think it's another tort!
