Republican Compares Obama To A Zonkey!

Zonkey is a hybrid of a donkey and zebra.

Anonymous complained that it was those Democrats who were the real racists. Anonymous would leave a handful of comments telling us about the far right domestic terrorist group the Ku Klux Klan being started by Democrats.

Anonymous would say that if the gubmint was a plantation, the Black folks were enslaved by it.

GOP Chair Apologizes for Calling Obama 'Zebra-Donkey' Hybrid in Newsletter
Click here to see the offensive newsletter.
Oh, that was Cliven Bundy. That's the repetitive word vomit you would see in your comment sections from those so called "compassionate conservatives".

Oh we care about the BLACKS, the ILLEGALS and the MUSLIMS says Republican lawmakers.

But if you cared about the minorities, why are you always forwarding those goddamn emails depicting America's president to an animal?

I understand "YOU GUYS" love to hide the bigotry! You claim those LIBS love to silence your "Freedom Of Speech".

Americans Against The Tea Party is my favorite website so far. It covers some of the most stupidest things that comes from racist right.

Winnebago County Republican Central Committee head fucktard sent a email to his fellow fucktards.

[S]aw on the news this week the offspring of a donkey and a zebra, black and white legs, rest all donkey.  Not sure why this is news: now if we can teach him to read a teleprompter, we could have two living creatures the media will fawn over that is part white part black and all a**!
Obviously another stupid fat dumbass Republican.
Well that joke happened to reach the junk food media and thus led to the apology:

I would like to offer my sincere apology to those who were offended, and I regret including this item in the newsletter. In the future, it most certainly won’t happen again.

Yeah, they say it now! How many other times has they let this slip?

Obviously in the age of President Barack Obama, every joke comparing the first Black president to an animal or something that's not his title, is very funny!

I guess he couldn't figure out how many monkeys were in the White House!

NBA Puts The Hammer On Donald Sterling!

The NBA "banned" Donald Sterling for life after it was revealed he made some controversial statements about Blacks.

Me and S. Baldwin have covered the Donald Sterling scandal. The NBA owner has been exposed as another racist jackass. To make note, he's a Republican.

Sterling’s campaign contributions from more than 20 years ago. He spread a total of $4,000 among three Democrats, including former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley, Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, and California Gov. Gray Davis. According to public records, he has given no money to any candidate since.

One thing I want to clear the air with is the political affiliation nonsense. Earlier I've posted that the racist right was already embarrassed over the Cliven Bundy remarks. They've welcomed the right wing militia rancher with open arms.

He ended up saying some not so nice things about "US NEGROS".

Now the conservatives were hoping they were going to deflect their idiocy towards that LA Clippers owner. They were saying that Sterling's measly donations in the 1990s automatically made him a lifelong Democrat.

Drudge Report
That Guy Who Throws Shit On The Wall is a total fool. He got embarrassed again after he jumped the gun on the Donald Sterling scandal.

Pants on Fire!The racist right went to town with it. The Bow Tie Manchild, National Screwview, That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall, King Hippo, That Guy Who Helped Obama Win, Chalk E Becker and Loudmouth Bill Cunningham all have pointed that the LA Clippers owner is a Democrat.

King Hippo even quirked that Sterling got in trouble because he didn't donate enough of the cash to Obama.

Now all of a sudden, Mother Jones, Talking Points Memo, The Washington Post and Politifact smashes the talking point putting the agitators back in the holes. It was revealed that Sterling was a registered Republican since 1998.

Ouch. Another stupid talking point going down the drain.
The conservative agitator deleted his tweet after he was debunked.
Now here's where the real action happened. The new NBA commissioner laid the hammer on Sterling.

A lifetime ban from the NBA. No access to the LA Clippers during practice, training, or games. The ban prohibits Sterling from attending any NBA games, entering any Clippers facility, or participating in any business decisions for the Clippers or the NBA.

The punishment was one of the most severe ever imposed on a professional sports owner. Moreover, Silver stated that he would move to force Sterling to sell the team, which would require the consent of three-quarters, or 22, of the other 29 league owners.

The University of California, Los Angeles announced that it was rejecting a $3 million gift from Sterling.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver announced a lifetime suspension and a $2.5 million fine for the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday during a press conference that will be remembered as a landmark moment in league history. The punishment was levied just days after audio recordings of Sterling making racist comments were released by TMZ and Deadspin.

“Effective immediately, I am banning Mr. Sterling for life from any association with the Clippers organization or the NBA,” Silver said during a press conference in New York on Tuesday afternoon. “Mr. Sterling may not attend any NBA games or practices. He may not be present at any Clippers facility. He may not participate in any business or player personnel decisions.”

In the recorded conversations that even garnered a rebuke from President Barack Obama, Sterling could be heard telling a woman, V. Stiviano, not to bring black friends to Clippers games or to post photos of herself with black people, including NBA legend Magic Johnson, on her Instagram account.

The NBA Players Association applauded the action taken by Silver but made it clear that it would not be satisfied until Sterling sells the franchise.

“As players, we’re very happy with the decision, but we’re not content yet,” NBPA vice president Roger Mason Jr. said in response to the NBA announcement. “We want immediate action. We want a timetable from the owners on when this vote is going to happen. We feel confident that with Adam Silver’s urging, and we’ve heard from a lot of the owners around the league, we think this is something that can be handled quickly.”
Game Over....
The Los Angeles chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) cancelled its plans for the following month to award Sterling for a second time with its lifetime achievement award.

President Barack Obama characterized the recording of Sterling as "incredibly offensive racist statements". Obama then stated, "When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don’t really have to do anything, you just let them talk."

Chumash Casino, the Clippers' most visible sponsor the prior four seasons, ended their relationship with the team, as did sponsors CarMax and Virgin America. Other sponsors and advertisers suspended their relationship with the Clippers while continuing to monitor the situation.

Craig Ferguson: I Quit!

Craig Ferguson is out leaving the Late Late Show.


CBS announced that Stephen Colbert will host Late Show this year. David Letterman is retiring and the executives felt that Colbert was the most suitable choice.

Well news came overnight that the Late Late Show host Craig Ferguson is calling it quits.

The Associated Press report that the Scottish comedian and entertainer hosted since the Late Late 2005.

Ferguson told his studio audience during Monday's taping that he will step down at the end of the year.

Ferguson's show airs after Letterman's, at 12:35 a.m. on weekdays.

The move was no surprise after CBS announced that Stephen Colbert will replace Letterman next year. There was a time that Ferguson, whose show won a Peabody Award in 2009, was considered a strong contender for that job.

But "The Late Late Show" has faded in the ratings, particularly with the arrival of Seth Meyers in February as competition in the same time slot.

"CBS and I are not getting divorced, we are consciously uncoupling," Ferguson said. "But we will still spend holidays together and share custody of the fake horse and robot skeleton, both of whom we love very much."

He told the audience it was his decision to leave, adding, "CBS has been fine with me."

CBS Entertainment Chairwoman Nina Tassler said Ferguson "infused the broadcast with tremendous energy, unique comedy, insightful interviews and some of the most heartfelt monologues seen on television."

He already has a new job lined up, as host of "Celebrity Name Game," a syndicated game show set to debut later this year.

But he joked about his plans with the audience.
David Letterman and Craig Ferguson are bouncing from CBS late nights.
After his stint ends, "I'll go and do something else. Probably, I'm thinking, carpentry. But I haven't made my mind up yet. ... I feel like doing this show for 10 years, that's enough," he said.

Guest LL Cool J told Ferguson that "I hate to see you go."

It's been an unusually busy period of personnel changes in the late-night television arena. Jimmy Fallon took over the "Tonight" show on NBC from Jay Leno in February and was an instant sensation, ascending to the top of the ratings against Letterman and ABC's Jimmy Kimmel. Letterman announced that he would be leaving CBS after more than three decades in late-night TV.

Chelsea Handler also has said she will be leaving her late-night show on E!

CBS said it plans to continue "The Late Late Show" and will be searching for another host. There's another opening at Comedy Central, which is looking to replace "The Colbert Report" when it ends at the end of the year.

Conservatives: That Donald Sterling Dude Is A Democrat!

The First Amendment continues to allow the ignorant to speak. Tell us how you feel about it Mr. Sterling?

That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall once again is the gateway to extremism. The conservative agitators have all express outrage along with the liberal agitators over Donald Sterling's outrageous comments about Black people.

But what comes to mind is the fact that for every time a racial event happens or mass killing occurs, the conservative agitators are quick to blame the Democratic Party for this.

Obviously conservatives are generally looked as MOSTLY racist. But sometimes a liberal may say something that cross the line. Liberals are slightly more tolerant of Blacks than conservatives.

Yeah, there are racist Democrats. Obviously a Democrat from West Virginia, Arkansas or Oklahoma will vote for a horse before they vote for Barack Obama.

When Barack Obama was a candidate for president in 2008, he avoided states like Mississippi, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Kentucky. He knew they were going to Hillary Clinton because those states are nearly impossible for a man of color to win. After all he made the comments about "[People being bitter], clinging to guns, religion, [with] antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

He was so right on that!

The National Screwview Online has made the accusations that the guy's political ties.

Tim Cavanaugh wrote that according to his "sources" Donald Sterling is a Democrat, according to campaign-contribution records. Long before this scandal, Sterling had donated to a few Democrats and Republicans.

Most contributions were local at best. I've tried to link up Newsmeat for his political ties. Unfortunately the website is shut down.

Michael Tomasky of The Daily Beast saw what I seen in this political hot potato. He noted that every freaking time an event would occur with race, it's conservatives quick to pounce on the Democrats and its usually the conservatives to say "oh he's a Democrat".

Right off the bat, he took to the social networks to see how the racist right reacted to it. Tomasky saw that the social networks were full of clucking conservatives challenging me to write about the Donald Sterling situation, or daring me to, or wagering that I would maintain a hypocritical silence in the face of this clear “proof” that Democrats are just as racist as Republicans.

Tomasky wrote that there's amazement to how eagerly the right-wing press has pounced on the “fact” that Sterling is a Democrat. To my knowledge, there is no such established fact at this point. This is based on two political contributions he made many moons ago.

Apparently, when the story broke Saturday morning, everyone in the cyberworld somehow glommed onto a 2011 list published at a site called RealGM that listed the political contributions of NBA owners. This list said Sterling had donated to two Democrats, Gray Davis and Bill Bradley, and that these were long ago, going back to “the early 1990s.”

Tomasky noted that this scandal has taken the heat off the misguided conservative support of that right wing militia rancher Cliven Bundy. After all, they were all in unison of Bundy during his stand off with the Bureau of Land Management and the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agency.

Bundy uttered racial comments about The NEGRO and it was leaked to the press over the past week.

It instantly sunk his support among those conservatives such as That Guy Who Helped Obama Win and his allies on Loserville.

Whenever you hear a Republican call the Democratic Party a platform to racism, let them know this!

If the Democrats were so racist, why on earth would they elect a Black man twice to be their nominee for president?

If the Democrats were such racists, why are conservatives so uptight whenever one of their own is caught sending racist emails or telling insensitive jokes about Blacks or Hispanics?

Let them know that the Republican Party isn't racist. But the Republicans has a whole lot of racists in the party!

NY Republican Congressman Arrested!

Congressman Michael Grimm (R-NY) is under federal indictment for corruption.

Republican Michael Grimm of New York is reportedly surrendering to the FBI today.

According to sources, the embattled politico was under investigation for misuse of campaign fundraising.

Grimm represents Staten Island and parts of southern Brooklyn, including the neighborhoods of Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Dyker Heights, and Gravesend. Politically, it is the most conservative district in New York City, the only district in the city which leans towards the Republican Party in national elections, and the only district covering part of the city to be represented by a Republican. The district has significant Jewish, Irish-American, Russian-American, and Italian-American populations.

From 2003-2013, the district was located entirely in Brooklyn, and had a majority African-American population. Most of the old 11th is now the 9th District. Prior to 2013, most of the territory currently in the 11th had been the 13th District.

He is a former FBI agent, businessman, attorney, and U.S. Marine, having served in the Persian Gulf War.

In August 2012, the office of the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York said it was investigating Grimm's 2010 campaign. In November 2012, the House Ethics Committee decided to inquire into the campaign but agreed to "defer consideration" of it at the Department of Justice's request.

In January 2014, the FBI arrested Diana Durand on charges that she had illegally donated more than $10,000 to Grimm's 2010 campaign. Durand allegedly gave the campaign $4,800, the legal limit, but then used straw donors to donate more than $10,000 illegally. The FBI also charged Durand with lying to Federal agents about the matter. Grimm denied any wrongdoing.

The investigation, which originally focused on Grimm's 2010 fundraising, branched out to include Grimm's prior business dealings. On April 25, 2014, Grimm's attorney was advised by the U.S. Attorney's office that his client will be indicted on undetermined federal charges concerning a restaurant he had owned prior to running for Congress.

Earlier this year, Grimm threatened a reporter after an interview went bad. The reporter asked Grimm about his federal investigation and that's when the lawmaker went bonkers. He threatened to toss the reporter over the balcony of the U.S. Capitol.

He would later apologize to the reporter.

He, Congressman Vance McAllister (R-LA), along with former Florida Republican lawmaker Trey Radel may have given the Democrats an opening. The Politico have labeled these lawmakers the Bad Boys of Washington.

Could there be more Republicans under investigation?

This could change the outlook of a very nervous Democratic Party. They may suck right now, but at least they have a plan on how to get Americans back to work. Republicans have nothing. They have more enthusiasm and the ability (for now).

Republicans are slated to take back the U.S. Senate if Democrats fail to turnout for the U.S. Midterms.

Conservative Outrage Over Obama "BOWING"!

President Barack Obama meets a humanoid robot at a technology event in Japan.

For Pete's sake, the conservative outrage meter is so off the scale.

Newsflash: OBAMA IS A 6'2".

The president is taller than most world leaders. But you can't tell that to our conservative agitating friends.

I am getting really tired of these pathetic outrages from conservatives.

Who the fuck cares if President Barack Obama bows?

Who the fuck cares about Obama taking selfies with Vice President Joe Biden, baseball stars or foreign leaders?
The gateway to extremism.
Obviously, the racist right does. Because you find this on Breitfart and That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall's website.

The president was in Japan and he was introduced to a humanoid robot. The robot greeted President Obama.

The president was at Miraikan Science Expo in Tokyo, Obama got the chance to meet the latest version of ASIMO, Honda's humanoid robot that can speak and do very lifelike things. Obama and the robot even kicked around a soccer ball together.

Jimmy Kimmel saw how the racist right reacted to the president's bow to a humanoid robot.

He decides to calm the nerves and poke a hole in the outrage.

Kimmel laughed as he showed the headlines about Obama “bowing” to the robot posted on Drudge and Breitbart below, saying, “As if he surrendered his nuclear arsenal to it.”

LA Clippers Players Turn Their Back On Racist Owner!


This scandal has gotten so much attention. All across the nation, people are sounding off about this NBA team owner talking shit about Blacks being at his games. It's almost a damn shame in the age of Obama, we just got through that White extremist killing three in Overland Park, Kansas. The U.S. Supreme Court upholds Michigan's ban on Affirmative Action at institutions.Then we have this jackass rancher from Nevada who was a hero to the racist right spouting off about the NEGRO.

Each incident has shown me and S. Baldwin that our country is still embolden in racism.

I wonder if That Guy Who Helped Obama will run to the defense of this asshole Donald Sterling?
Share photos on twitter with Twitpic
The LA Clippers won't take anymore bullshit from Donald Sterling.

Well Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Labron James, Charles Barkley and even President Barack Obama called for the resignation of Sterling.

The racist right takes to defense of course attacking the president and the NBA for blowing this stuff "outta of proportion".

TMZ Sports released what it said is an April 9, 2014 audio recording of a conversation between Sterling and his girlfriend or former girlfriend, V. Stiviano.

According to TMZ, Sterling and Stiviano argued in regards to a photo Stiviano posted on Instagram in which she posed with Magic Johnson. In the audio recording, Sterling allegedly tells Stiviano: "It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with black people."

Clippers president Andy Roesen issued a statement the following day, indicating that his organization was unsure if it was a legitimate and unaltered recording, that the sentiments attributed to Sterling did not reflect Sterling's views, and that the woman on the recording was being sued by the Sterling family and had "told Mr. Sterling that she would 'get even'" with him.

The Los Angeles chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) cancelled its plans for the following month to award Sterling for a second time with its lifetime achievement award.

President Barack Obama characterized the recording attributed to Sterling as "incredibly offensive racist statements". Obama then stated, “When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don’t really have to do anything, You just let them talk.”

That's pretty simple of these assholes in the conservative media and that NBA owner. They continue to be ignorant and we just allow them to keep talking. Because if we keep them talking, they'll self-destruct.

Hopefully this geezer gets booted from his team. Because the ways its going, someone got to give. And he will be the one to go!

What A Drag For Accused White Extremist Murderer!

AP Cross 140424 DG 16x9 608 Ex KKK Leader Was Given a New Identity Years Before Shooting

Glenn Miller (aka Frazier Glenn Miller or Glenn Cross) is a crazy ass White extremist. He's accused of murdering three innocent people at two Jewish centers.

Overland Park, Kansas police are trying to piece together the extremist's motives.

It was revealed that the White extremist love the prostitutes. The male prostitutes. Especially Black ones.

This comes as no surprise that the hateful asshole was trolling for the hoes.

ABC News reports that in the course of their investigation, authorities also learned the stunning details of Miller’s arrest a year earlier. Raleigh police officers had caught Miller in  the back seat of a vehicle, in mid-act with a black male prostitute masquerading as a woman.

“It was pretty shocking,” says McCullough, “because of his personal stances that he had taken and what he was now accused on engaging in.”

McCullough says he has read the police report of the incident but declined to comment on the specifics. “I would rather not go into the details,” he said. “They’re rather salacious. I think the facts speak for themselves and people can draw their own conclusions about how incongruous that is.”

Miller was not charged in connection with the prostitution arrest and no public record of the incident could be located. But in a recorded phone call with the Southern Poverty Law Center last fall, Miller claimed that he had lured the prostitute to the meeting with the intention of beating him.

Eventually, McCullough, the federal prosecutor, would approve a plea deal with Miller recommending a five-year prison sentence in exchange for his cooperation and testimony against his former compatriots. He would serve less than three years of that sentence at a prison in western New York.

“I am not certain that we got 100 percent of what we wanted,” McCullough told WTVD. “He did testify in a couple of cases here in the eastern part of the state, or agreed to testify where the people plead guilty knowing he was going to testify.”

In 1998, Miller was a key witness in a high-profile federal trial that charged more than a dozen white nationalists in an alleged conspiracy to levy war against the United States government. The Department of Justice had called it Operation Clean Sweep. Miller testified that he had received two payments totaling $200,000 from a leader of  the alleged conspiracy, but in the end all of those accused were acquitted and, incredibly, one of the jurors later married one of the defendants.

“His testimony was extremely weak,” says Leonard Zeskind, who tracked Miller’s activities in the 1980′s as research director for the Center for the Democratic Renewal, a civil rights group fighting Klan activities.

“I believe that Miller was essentially playing a game with the feds. And I don’t think he had any intention of becoming a good witness. The guy was a stone-to-the-bone Nazi,” Zeskind says. “He never gave that up. I am on the record as saying the man should have died in prison.”

But McCullough says that nothing would have changed what happened last week in Kansas. Even if he had refused to deal with Miller back in 1987, he would have spent no more than fifteen years in prison.

“We made the deal that we could make at the time and whether it’s right or wrong, it’s really kind of immaterial at this point,” McCullough says. “Human beings are unpredictable. I don’t think there is anybody who could know what he was capable of doing,” he said of the shootings in Kansas. “I certainly never saw that in his personality.  He was a blowhard who liked to be in front of a crowd. He liked to whip the crowd up and get the emotions running high.”

Very little is known of the years Miller spent in Iowa and Nebraska living as Frazier Glenn Cross.

“He asked for protection from both the White Patriot Party people and blacks in prison because he had alienated both groups,” says McCullough.  ”Obviously once he served his sentence he couldn’t go back to where his old compatriots were because he would be at risk.  So we had to put him somewhere safe.”

It’s clear that Cross eventually discarded his assumed identity provided by the federal government and resumed his life as the belligerent, unapologetic white supremacist, Frazier Glenn Miller.

The Racism and Bigotry of LA Clippers Donald Sterling- SMH!







I can't let this one pass!

My take:

This guy is absolutely racist and bigoted, yet he had a Black girlfriend.  Racist white men want to have their cake and eat it too.  They also insist Black women to assimilate to their white male supremacist culture. That won't work because some Black women aren't giving up Blackness and Black culture. At the same time, those men denigrate Black men and women, telling them that they're "inferior" and have no rights bound to respect.

I wish some of my Black sisters in the "BWE" movment talk about this one.  How can one be with a man that is a racist and have one's sanity intact?  

That's white male privilege at work.  Entitled to have women of all races and be racist and hateful at the same time.  That proves Kristen Maye's and many other Black womens' viewpoint about racism in interracial relationships.  That painful history of Whites and Blacks along with Whites not giving up their "White Privilege" status and contemporary racism.




A BLACK WOMEN SPEAKS... OF WHITE WOMANHOOD OF WHITE SUPREMACY OF PEACE A poem by BEULAH RICHARDSON

A BLACK WOMEN SPEAKS... OF WHITE WOMANHOOD OF WHITE SUPREMACY OF PEACE A poem by BEULAH RICHARDSON 

Read by Beulah Richardson at the Women's Workshop at the American People's Peace Congress held in Chicago on June 29, 30 and July 1, 1951 bringing a standing ovation from all 500 women attending.


It is right that I a woman black, should speak of white womanhood. my fathers my brothers my husbands my sons die for it: because of it. and their blood chilled in electric chairs, stopped by hangman’s noose, cooked by lynch mobs’ fire, spilled by white supremacist mad desire to kill give me that right

I would that I could speak of white womanhood

as it will and should be

when it stands tall in full equality.

but then, womanhood will be womanhood.


Void of color and of class, And all necessity for my speaking thus will be past. Gladly past. But now, since ‘tis deemed a thing apart Supreme, I must in searching honesty report How it seems to me. White womanhood stands in bloodied skirt and willing slavery reaching out adulterous hand killing mine and crushing me. What then is the superior thing That in order to be sustained must needs feed upon my flesh?

 Let’s look to history. They said, the white supremacist said that you were better than me, that your fair brow would never know the sweat of slavery. They lied White womanhood to is enslaved, The difference is degree. They brought me here in chains. They brought you here willing slaves to man. You, shiploads of women each filled with hope That she might win with ruby lip and saucy curl And bright and flashing eyes Him to wife who had the largest tender. Remember? And they sold you here even as they sold me.

My sisters, there is no room for mockery. If they counted my teeth They did appraise your thigh And sold you to the highest bidder The same as I. And you did not fight for your right to choose Whom you would wed But for whatever bartered price That was the legal tender You were sold to a stranger’s bed In a stranger land Remember? And you did not fight. Mind you, I speak not mockingly But I fought for freedom, I’m fighting now for our unity. We are women all. And what wrongs you murders me And eventually marks your grave So we share a mutual death at the hand of tyranny. They trapped me with the chain and gun. They trapped you with lying tongue.

For, ‘less you see that fault— That male villainy That robbed you of name, voice and authority, That murderous greed that wasted you and me, He, the white supremacist, fixed your minds with poisonous thought: “white skin is supreme.” And there with bought that monstrous change exiling you to things. Changed all that nature had in you wrought of gentle usefulness, abolishing your spring.

Tore out your heart, set your good apart from all that you could say, think, feel, know to be right. And you did not fight, but set your minds fast on my slavery the better to endure your own. 'Tis true my pearls were beads of sweat wrung from weary bodies' pain, instead of rings upon my hands I wore swollen, bursting veins. My ornaments were the wipe-lash's scar my diamond, perhaps, a tear. Instead of paint and powder on my face I wore a solid mask of fear to see my blood so spilled. And you, women seeing spoke no protest but cuddled down in your pink slavery and thought somehow my wasted blood confirmed your superiority.

Because your necklace was of gold you did not notice that it throttled speech. Because diamond rings bedecked your hands you did not regret their dictated idleness. Nor could you see that the platinum bracelets which graced your wrists were chains binding you fast to economic slavery And though you claimed your husband's name still could not command his fidelity. You bore him sons. I bore him sons. No, not willingly. He purchase you. He raped me, I fought! But you fought neither for yourselves nor me. Sat trapped in your superiority and spoke no reproach. Consoled your outrage with an added diamond brooch. Oh, God, how great is a woman's fear who for a stone, a cold, cold stone would not defend honor, love or dignity!

Your bore the damning mockery of your marriage and heaped your hate on me, a woman too, a slave more so. And when your husband disowned his seed that was my son and sold him apart from me you felt avenged. Understand: I was not your enemy in this, I was not the source of your distress. I was your friend, I fought. But you would not help me fight thinking you helped only me. Your deceived eyes seeing only my slavery aided your own decay. Yes, they condemned me to death and they condemned you to decay. Your heart whisked away, consumed in hate, used up in idleness playing yet the lady's part estranged to vanity. It is justice to you to say your fear equaled your tyranny. You were afraid to nurse your young lest fallen breast offend your master's sight and he should flee to firmer loveliness. And so you passed them, your children, on to me. Flesh that was your flesh and blood that was your blood drank the sustenance of life from me. And as I gave suckle I knew I nursed my own child's enemy.

 I could have lied, told you your child was fed till it was dead of hunger. But I could not find the heart to kill orphaned innocence. For as it fed, it smiled and burped and gurgled with content and as for color knew no difference. Yes, in that first while I kept your sons and daughters alive. But when they grew strong in blood and bone that was of my milk you taught them to hate me. PUt your decay in their hearts and upon their lips so that strength that was of myself turned and spat upon me, despoiled my daughters, and killed my sons. You know I speak true.

Though this is not true for all of you When I bestirred myself for freedom and brave Harriet led the way some of you found heart and played a part in aiding my escape. And when I made my big push for freedom your sons fought at my sons' side. Your husbands and brothers too fell in that battle when Crispus Attucks died. It's unfortunate that you acted not in the way of justice but to preserve the Union and for dear sweet pity's sake; Else how came it to be with me as it is today? You abhorred slavery yet loathed equality.

I would that the poor among you could have seen through the scheme and joined hands with me. Then, we being the majority, could long ago have recued our wasted lives. But no. The rich, becoming richer, could be content while yet the poor had only the pretense of superiority and sought through murderous brutality to convince themselves that what was false was true.

 So with KKK and fiery cross and bloodied appetites set about to prove that "white is right" forgetting their poverty. Thus the white supremacist used your skins to perpetuate slavery. And woe to me. Woe to Willie McGee. Woe to the seven men of Martinsville. And woe to you. It was no mistake that your naked body on an Esquire calendar announced the date, May Eighth. This is your fate if you do not wake to fight. They will use your naked bodies to sell their wares though it be hate, Coca Cola or rape. When a white mother disdained to teach her children this doctrine of hate, but taught them instead of peace and respect for all men's dignity the courts of law did legislate that they be taken from her and sent to another state. To make a

Troy Hawkins of the little girl and a killer of the little boy! No, it was not for the womanhood of this mother that Willie McBee died but for the depraved, enslaved, adulterous woman whose lustful demands denied, lied and killed what she could not possess. Only three months before another such woman lied and seven black men shuddered and gave up their lives. These women were upheld in these bloody deeds by the president of this nation, thus putting the official seal on the fate of white womanhood with in these United States. This is what they plan for you. This is the depravity they would reduce you to.

 Death for me and worse than death for you. What will you do? Will you fight with me? White supremacy is your enemy and mine. So be careful when you talk with me. Remind me not of my slavery, I know it will but rather tell me of your own. Remember, you have never known me. You've been busy seeing me as white supremacist would have me be, and I will be myself. Free! My aim is full equality. I would usurp their plan! Justice peace and plenty for every man, woman and child who walks the earth. This is my fight! If you will fight with me then take my hand and the hand of Rosa Ingram, and Rosalee McGee, and as we set about our plan let our Wholehearted fight be: PEACE IN A WORLD WHERE THERE IS EQUALITY.

Jackass Owner Of LA Clippers Utters Racial Hate!

Donald Sterling caught on tape uttering racial prejudice towards Blacks.

If this is what a controversial NBA owner thinks of Black people, then why on Earth would this man own a team that caters to 70% of the team being Black male?

It's ironic that the Los Angeles Clippers are in the NBA playoffs. They were considered one of the worst teams in the league. Now they're really smoking. They share Staples Arena with the longtime Los Angeles Lakers.

The jackass owner of the team would be force toe explain his reasons to why he doesn't want Blacks at his games. I want to know why this guy still has a NBA team?

It was released over the weekend by celebrity agitator TMZ.

It show the NBA owner Don Sterling making not so nice comments about Blacks at sporting events.

TMZ Sports released an audio conversation recorded by V. Stiviano, Sterling's girlfriend.

Both Stiviano and Sterling argued in regards to a posted photo Stiviano uploaded on Instagram where she posed with Magic Johnson. In the audio recording, Sterling tells Stiviano: “It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with black people. Do you have to?

Sterling rails on Stiviano -- who ironically is black and Mexican -- for putting herself out in public with a black person (she has since taken the pic down).  But it doesn't end there.  You have to listen to the audio to fully grasp the magnitude of Sterling's racist worldview. Among the comments:
LA Clippers in the NBA Playoffs.
-- "It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with black people. Do you have to?" (3:30) 

-- "You can sleep with [black people]. You can bring them in, you can do whatever you want.  The little I ask you is not to promote it on that ... and not to bring them to my games." (5:15)

-- "I’m just saying, in your lousy f******* Instagrams, you don’t have to have yourself with, walking with black people." (7:45)

-- "...Don't put him [Magic] on an Instagram for the world to have to see so they have to call me.  And don't bring him to my games." (9:13)

This fool has a history. Wikipedia has documented other events where Sterling, a Jewish business executive has turned his blind eye towards people of color.

In August 2006, the U.S. Department of Justice sued Sterling for housing discrimination in using race as a factor in filling some of his apartment buildings. The suit charged that Sterling refused to rent to non-Koreans in the Koreatown neighborhood and to African Americans in Beverly Hills.

The suit alleges Sterling once said he did not like to rent to Hispanics because they "smoke, drink and just hang around the building," and that "Black tenants smell and attract vermin."

In November 2009, ESPN reported that Sterling agreed to pay a fine of $2.73 million to settle claims brought by the Justice Department and Davin Day of Newport Beach that he engaged in discriminatory rental practices against Hispanics, blacks, and families with children.

In addition, Sterling was also ordered to pay attorneys' fees and costs in that action of $4,923,554.75. [Order Granting Motion for Prevailing Party's Attorneys' Fees and Costs, dated November 2, 2005, C.D. Cal. Case No. 2:03-cv-00859-DSF-E Dkt No. 454]. In granting the attorney's fees and costs Judge Dale S. Fischer noted "Sterling's' scorched earth' litigation tactics, some of which are described by the Plaintiffs' counsel and some of which were observed by the Court. The Court has no difficulty accepting Plaintiffs' counsel's representations that the time required to be spent on this case was increased by defendant's counsel's often unacceptable, and sometimes outrageous conduct." [Id. at p. 5]

In February 2009, Sterling was sued by former longtime Clippers executive Elgin Baylor for employment discrimination on the basis of age and race.

The lawsuit alleges Sterling told Baylor that he wanted to fill his team with "poor black boys from the South and a white head coach".

The suit alleges that during negotiations for Danny Manning, Sterling said "I'm offering a lot of money for a poor black kid."

The suit noted those comments while alleging "the Caucasian head coach was given a four-year, $22-million contract", but Baylor's salary had "been frozen at a comparatively paltry $350,000 since 2003".

Right Wing Rancher Believes We "NEGROS" Are Lost On The Gubmint!

Once again That Guy Who Helped Obama Win got his ass handed to him courtesy of right wing rancher Cliven Bundy. Bundy totally sunk his support after he decry on us "NEGROS" being gubmint parasites.

I wonder if That Guy Who Helped Obama Win will support this far right rancher knowing he's said some derogatory comments about Blacks?

Of course not, he's now distancing himself from the guy.




Cliven Bundy the conservative hero for standing up to the big bad gubmint is now exposed as a dumbass racist punk.

The right wing agitators were in support of a guy who believes us "NEGROS" need to be back in the fields picking that cotton. We "NEGROS" can't stand on our own without the gubmint according to him.

This tirade posted today has deflated the arguments by Loserville and those agitators who stood with him.



“I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro,” he said. Mr. Bundy recalled driving past a public-housing project in North Las Vegas, “and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids — and there is always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch — they didn’t have nothing to do. They didn’t have nothing for their kids to do. They didn’t have nothing for their young girls to do.
“And because they were basically on government subsidy, so now what do they do?” he asked. “They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I’ve often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn’t get no more freedom. They got less freedom.

Of course it proves the Southern Poverty Law Center's point that anti-gubmint rhetoric has stirred the racist right and they're preparing for an all out race war.

Being a total asshole complaining about the government.

Conservatives were so quick to jump to the defense of this chump.

Now all of sudden, no support. Just alot of crickets chirping.

That Guy Who Helped Obama Win finally admits that he made a mistake but yet managed to dig at the gubmint.

Allow me to make myself abundantly clear. I believe those comments are downright racist, they are repugnant, they are bigoted and it's beyond disturbing. I find those comments to be deplorable and I think it's extremely unfortunate that Cliven Bundy holds those views. Now while I supported the Bundy Ranch as they took a stand against the Bureau of Land Management, I was absolutely dismayed and frankly disappointed after reading the article and then hearing the commentary, however, I also want to say this. The ranch standoff that took place out in Nevada was not about a man named Cliven Bundy. At the heart of this issue was my belief that our government is simply out of control. To me this was about a federal agency's dangerous response to a situation that could have resulted in a catastrophe and that means people dying and being shot, kind of comparable to what we saw in Waco, Texas. It was about hundreds of armed federal agents and snipers and sharp shooters surrounding a family and not because that family posed a threat to anyone else, but because their cattle happened to be grazing on the wrong patch of grass and they were eating government grass. In other words, when I believe government officials, when they over step their line, I think it's my job to call them on it and make no mistake about it, I'll continue to do just that.

Too late asshole. You've made your bed! Now sleep in it, you total asshat.

Jon Stewart Strikes Hannity Hard!

Jon Stewart hits That Guy Who Helped Obama Win hard.

The Bundy Ranch standoff has caused a rift of conflict. That annoying conservative agitator defends the right wing rancher who refuses to pay federal fees for allowing his cattle on federal lands. He and his family along with a handful of armed supporters are being egged on by that agitator to strike.

The Daily Show's Jon Stewart wanted to point out the ongoing hypocrisy of the conservative agitator.

He points to episodes of his Loserville program and radio program to acknowledge that the conservative agitator has a "selective outrage" towards government.

That conservative agitator went berserk on Stewart. He thinks that Stewart was "obsessed" with him.

It's also noted that Stewart was called a "hack" and an apologist for the Obama Administration.

Stewart responds back hard.

The feud continues on.

Lupita Nyong'o Named People's Most Beautiful!

Actress Lupita Nyong'o is ranked People's Most Beautiful.

Me and S. Baldwin have talked about the People Magazine's most beautiful being mostly White.

For once I am actually happy that the celebrity magazine named a person of color as their most beautiful.

Kenyan actress Lupita Nyong'o was awarded an Oscar for her breakthrough role as Patsey, a devoted young cotton picker in the movie 12 Years A Slave.

Nyong'o was born in Mexico City, Mexico, to Dorothy and Peter Anyang' Nyong'o, a college professor turned politician in Kenya.

It is a Luo tradition to name a child after the events of the day, so her parents gave her a Spanish name, Lupita (a diminutive of Guadalupe).

She is of Luo descent on both sides of her family, and is the second of six children.

Nyong'o identifies as Mexican-Kenyan. Her father was the former Minister for Medical Services in the Kenyan government. At the time of her birth, he was a visiting lecturer in political science at El Colegio de México in Mexico City, and her family had been living in Mexico for three years.

12 Years A Slave was directed by Steve McQueen. It is the real-life story of Solomon Northup (played by Chiwitel Ejiofor), a free born African American man who is sold into slavery in 1841.

She expressed her excitement on the social networks:




Well on behalf of Journal de la Reyna, we congratulate her. We wish well on her future successes.




The Klan Working For You!

KKK-FLYER.jpeg
They are looking out for you!

The racist right still simmers in the age of Barack Obama.

The Southern Poverty Law Center concludes that there are over 1,000 active hate groups in the United States. These groups and online forums are catering to the extremism in America.

A bunch of people who have resentment towards someone's race, gender, sexuality, religion, political and economic standings.

The Klan is one of the oldest domestic terrorist groups. They've slightly increased in the past five years. They are very active in the Midwest and Northeast.

When you got White men who are frustrated with the changing demographics in this country, you will see them go berserk.

The Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan launched a neighborhood watch in the area of Ridge Road in Fairview Township in response to a recent rash of break-ins, said Frank Ancona, the organization’s imperial wizard and president.

Leadership of a local Traditional American Knights chapter contacted the organization’s headquarters in Park Hills, Mo., to find out whether the national organization would sponsor the crime watch, and Ancona said he gave the midstate “klavern” his blessing.

“It’s just like any neighborhood watch program. It’s not targeting any specific ethnicity. We would report anything we see to law enforcement,” Ancona said. “We don’t hate people. We are an organization who looks out for our race. We believe in racial separation. God created each species after its kind and saw that it was good.”

Residents along Ridge Road woke up to find fliers bearing Ku Klux Klan propaganda at their doorsteps Friday morning.

The fliers include a depiction of a KKK member in a white robe and hood, and a note that says:

“Neighborhood Watch. You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake.”

PennLive obtained a picture of the flier taken by a resident who received it.

PennLive writer Eric Veronikis reports that Fairview Township police Sgt. Davis Holland said police are aware of the propaganda, but would not comment further.

Ancona would not divulge information about the local chapter that distributed the flier; nor would he reveal the names of local leadership or other members of the midstate chapter.
Imperial Wizard Frank Ancona1.jpg
Head of the Klan wants to establish a neighborhood watch.
A number of people recently called the Traditional American Knights hotline from Fairview Township saying they don’t believe the local police department is doing enough to combat a recent string of break-ins in the area, Ancona said.

He said he doesn’t necessarily believe the accusations against the police are true. But he does believe local police departments can get overwhelmed by crime and could use an extra hand looking out for criminals. Hence, the neighborhood watch.

Nine vehicles were reportedly broken into earlier this month at the FedEx facility off Industrial Drive in Fairview Township. Another man broke into several vehicles in the township in March. But he also was caught. And a robbery attempt at a Fairview Township home was foiled in January after police said the homeowner caught him in the act and pinned him to the ground.

The imperial wizard refused to help PennLive reach out to a local leader to discuss the neighborhood watch because only himself and national leadership are permitted to speak with media, he said.

That mandate exists to prevent others from misrepresenting the organization, Ancona said, referencing Frasier Glenn Miller, the reported former grand dragon of the Carolina Knights who allegedly shot and killed three people at a Jewish community center in Overland Park, Kan., a little more than a week ago.

While not affiliated with the Traditionalist American Knights, Ancona, who denounced Miller in the national press following the incident, said the alleged gunman went “rogue” and gave the KKK a black eye.

Ancona continued to soften his organization during an interview with PennLive on Sunday night.

He said members of the group, which has chapters in every state except Hawaii, are neighbors and colleagues who generally can’t discuss their involvement with the Traditionalist American Knights because of the negative light cast upon the KKK.

People can lose jobs and family and friends when they are traced back to the KKK, Ancona said. And that’s because the klan is “somewhat discriminated against,” he said.

Background checks are run on all potential members, Ancona said. And anyone with serious crimes on their records will not be admitted to the Traditionalist American Knights, he said.

Ancona described Pennsylvania as a “strong Yankee state” for his organization with a large membership base. The group’s “realm of greater Pennsylvania” encompasses West Virginia and western New York.

“Members could be the guy who is delivering your pizza. It could be law enforcement from the local sheriff’s office. It could be the nurse taking care of you in the emergency room,” Ancona said.

He stressed that the KKK is not affiliated with the neo-Nazi and skinhead movements. And Ancona said residents of Fairview Township should be relieved the neighborhood watch is underway.

Ancona said the Traditionalist American Knights consider anyone outside of the KKK “an alien.”

“Anyone who is not part of the klan is considered an alien,” Ancona said. “These are things that band us in this brotherhood.”

After the attack of a Jewish center by Glenn Miller (aka Frazier Glenn Cross) members of the Klan are trying to distance themselves from the domestic terrorist.

They considered Miller a snitch and a traitor to the cause.

They want to show the public they're not just proud racists but honest to god citizens.

Rolling laughter....

Hannity Goes Berserk On Jon Stewart!

That Guy Who Helped Obama Win is tired of being mocked by comedian. So now he's launched a feud against Comedy Central's host Jon Stewart.

That Guy Who Helped Obama Win is a certified asshole. The conservative agitator is so obsessed with taking down President Barack Obama it actually backfires.

I've explained it too many times that he's nothing more than a well paid agitator who relishes in division and hate.

Do you know that picking a fight with Jon Stewart will result in a bitter defeat?

It's not Jon Stewart's fault that he caught this punk ass conservative agitator lying to his audience yet again.

He's just telling the damn truth about that stupid right wing militia rancher. That rancher refuses to follow federal law and respect property. He making a mountain out of a mole hill. He's being a total asshole.

He and those who support him are WHITE EXTREMIST!

That annoying conservative agitator is stringing the possibility of a domestic terrorist attack.

Mediaite reports that That Guy Who Helped Obama Win went after Jon Stewart Tuesday night for mocking him over his support of Cliven Bundy and hypocrisy therewith. That annoying conservative agitator mused that Stewart is “kind of obsessed” with him, and called the late night comic the “chief apologist for the Obama administration.”
Obviously Jon Stewart catches the hypocrisy that comes out of that asshole's mouth.
The annoying conservative agitator insisted his main problem is with government overreach in Nevada, turning the tables on Stewart to wonder where he stands on Bundy, wildly speculating what Stewart’s true feelings on the situation could be. And beyond that, that conservative agitator rehashed his old foes.

“Did Jon Stewart ask Barack Obama about his friendship [with] this unapologetic domestic terrorist Bill Ayers [and Jeremiah Wright]?” says That Guy Who Helped Obama Win.

The annoying conservative agitator called Stewart a “comedic hack” and randomly brought up the inclusion of Cat Stevens (who supported a fatwa on Salman Rushdie) at the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear hosted by Stewart and Stephen Colbert.

National Review‘s Kevin Williamson called Stewart a “half-bright late night television comedian” with a “vulgar and extensive audience,” telling the conservative agitator, “I’m sort of embarrassed with the country and myself that we have to sit here and talk about Jon Stewart.”

Supreme Court Upholds Michigan's Affirmative Action Ban!

The conservative wing upholds Michigan's ban on racial preferences.

I guess the Supreme Court decided that racism is over in the United States. There's no such thing as institutional racism in the country so says the six justices of the Supreme Court.

Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action was a case before the United States Supreme Court questioning whether a state violates the Fourteenth Amendment by enshrining a ban on race- and sex-based discrimination on public university admissions in its constitution.

This ruling effectively ends racial preferences in admissions in ALL institutions.

The Associated Press reports that the 6-2 (with Elena Kagan, not participating) decision came in a case brought by Michigan, where a voter-approved initiative banning affirmative action had been tied up in court for a decade.

Seven other states — California, Florida, Washington, Arizona, Nebraska, Oklahoma and New Hampshire — have similar bans. Now, others may seek to follow suit.

But the ruling, which was expected after the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the Michigan law, does not establish a precedent because the justices splintered in their reasoning.

It also doesn't jeopardize the wide use of racial preferences in many of the 42 states without bans. Such affirmative action programs were upheld, though subjected to increased scrutiny, in the high court's June ruling involving the University of Texas.

"This case is not about how the debate (over racial preferences) should be resolved," Justice Anthony Kennedy said in announcing the ruling. But to stop Michigan voters from making their own decision on affirmative action would be "an unprecedented restriction on a fundamental right held by all in common."

Chief Justice Roberts also filed a concurring opinion, arguing that the dissent contains a paradox: the governing board banning affirmative action is an exercise of policymaking authority, but others who reach that conclusion (presumed to mean the supporters of Proposal 2) do not take race seriously. He continues that racial preferences may actually do more harm than good, that they reinforce doubt about whether or not minorities belong.

Justice Scalia filed an opinion concurring in the judgment, joined by Justice Thomas. He examines what he calls a "frighteningly bizarre question:" Whether the Equal Protection Clause forbids what its text requires, answering by quoting his concurrence/dissent in Grutter: that "the Constitution [forbids] government discrimination on the basis of race, and state-provided education is no exception." He asserts that the people of Michigan adopted that understanding of the clause as their fundamental law, and that by adopting it, "they did not simultaneously offend it."

Justice Breyer filed an opinion concurring in the judgment, arguing that the case has nothing to do with reordering the political process, nor moving decision-making power from one level to another, but rather that university boards delegated admissions-related authority to unelected faculty and administration. He further argues that the same principle which supports the right of the people or their representatives to adopt affirmative action policies for the sake of inclusion also gives them the right to vote not to do so, as Michigan did.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor read a summary of her lengthy, 58-page dissent from the bench, in which Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg joined. She said the decision creates "a two-tiered system of political change" by requiring only race-based proposals to surmount the state Constitution, while all other proposals can go to school boards.
From left bottom to right top: Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia, John Roberts (Chief Justice of Supreme Court), Anthony Kennedy, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito and Elena Kagan.

As a result of the ruling, said Sotomayor, a product of affirmative action policies, minority enrollment will continue to decline at Michigan's public universities, just as it has in California and elsewhere. African-American enrollment dropped 33% at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor between 2006 and 2012, even as overall enrollment grew by 10%.

"The numbers do not lie," Sotomayor said.

Conservative satire to affirmative action.
The decision was splintered, with Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito joining Kennedy's opinion; Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas concurring in a separate opinion; and Justice Stephen Breyer, more often aligned with the court's liberal wing, concurring in yet another opinion.

Justice Elena Kagan recused herself from the case, presumably because of a conflict of interest from her time as U.S. solicitor general.

The opinion elicited a general reaction from the White House as President Obama headed to Asia. "The president has said that while he opposes quotas and thinks an emphasis on universal and not race-specific programs is good policy, considering race, along with other factors, can be appropriate in certain circumstances," press secretary Jay Carney said on Air Force One.

The decision in Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action comes 10 years after two seminal Supreme Court rulings out of the University of Michigan. One struck down the undergraduate school's use of a point system that included race to guide admissions. The other upheld the law school's consideration of race among many other factors.

Immediately after the law school ruling, opponents of racial preferences set to work on a state constitutional amendment that said Michigan "shall not discriminate against, or grant preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin." Voters approved it by a 58%-42% margin in November 2006.

A federal district court upheld the initiative, but a sharply divided appeals court ruled that it violated minorities' equal protection rights under the Constitution.

The writing appeared to be on the wall at the Supreme Court, based on the influence of Roberts, an opponent of racial preferences who famously wrote in another case several years ago that "the way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race."

But in this case, Kennedy was the man to watch. He wrote the court's 1996 Romer v. Evans opinion striking down a Colorado referendum that banned local governments from enacting gay rights laws. Yet he had been less enthusiastic about the use of racial preferences in several recent cases.

Opponents of the Michigan law called it a form of "political restructuring" that stops minorities from seeking admission to a university the same way an athlete or legacy applicant can. Instead, they said in an argument that Sotomayor and Ginsburg endorsed, minorities had to change the state Constitution.

In striking down the ban, the 6th Circuit cited the Supreme Court's 1969 and 1982 rulings in cases from Akron and Seattle. In those cases, the high court struck down voter-approved initiatives that had blocked the cities' pro-minority housing and school busing policies.
Satire in real sense.
But Kennedy said the appeals court misread those earlier rulings. In the new Michigan case, he said, the paramount concern is the right of citizens to deliberate, debate and act — in this case, through a constitutional amendment.

The debate has practical as well as legal implications. In Michigan and California particularly, the bans have reduced black and Hispanic enrollments at elite universities and at law, medical and professional schools. The percentages of African Americans among entering freshmen at the University of California-Berkeley, UCLA and the University of Michigan were the lowest among the nation's top universities in 2011.

During oral arguments in October, Michigan Solicitor General John Bursch disputed the validity of those statistics. He said changes in 2010 that allowed students to check more than one racial box skewed the figures.

While Michigan's argument focused on equal rights for white and minority students, some conservative scholars go further. They say doing away with affirmative action gives minority students a better chance of succeeding at less competitive schools.

Nichelle McKnight Murder Tragedy!



In the city of Dayton, Ohio, the people are mourning the life of a 25 year old mother who was found in the Stillwater River after her disappearance was sparked by the police's apprehension of a man.

She was laid to rest last week and the question remains to why a young life would suffer a tragic fate?

This is gotten regional attention and a bit of national coverage. The young mother and her son were missing for nearly a month before the Dayton Police got a lead.

Her last posting on social networks were found.










This story hits close to home, literally.

The body of the young woman was discovered close to where I live.

Her body was retrieved from the Stillwater River with apparent gun shot wounds to the head.

I had worked at my job a few days ago and met a woman who knew the victim.

She said that Nichelle would ride the bus and take her son to the daycare. She was active military. Born in San Diego but raised in Dayton, Ohio, the young mother was trying to build a future.

She didn't get along with her family. Her family wasn't that concerned about her whereabouts until recently.

The woman said that even though Nichelle was a good mother and working from time to time, she was depressed. While facing depression, she ended up falling in love with a worthless scumbag.

That worthless scumbag would groom her into romance and use her. This would rile up the other woman.

Somehow these two clashed and there was a shooting. And now this woman and her son were missing.

According to leads, the child is dead but there's no actual location to where his body is. The Dayton Police and Montgomery County Sheriff found Nichelle's body.

The suspect is dead and the other woman is in county lock up for using Nichelle's credit cards.
Antwan Anderson once had a stay of residence in the iron college. He was released. The Dayton Police and FBI were looking for this scumbag after Nichelle McKnight turned up missing. This scumbag got into a shoot out with police and ended up putting a bullet to the head (or at least what the cops say).
Police found blood and the shoes McKnight was wearing when she was reported missing in the home’s basement, along with her driver’s license, bank cards, and the Social Security cards for both McKnight and Zaden, according to the affidavit.

The home on Birchwood is the residence of Tonisha Harris, 29, who was indicted Tuesday in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court on charges related to McKnight’s disappearance. The charges include six counts of receiving stolen property and one count each of theft by deception and misuse of a credit card, all fifth-degree felonies.

Dayton Police chief Richard Biehl said the body of McKnight's son, 4-year-old Zaden, has not been found. and the search for his remains continues.

Biehl said the police department, acting on a tip at 11:25 a.m. from an unknown caller who said he was an acquaintance of McKnight's boyfriend, Antwan Anderson, pointed the search to an area behind the Riverview Park Apartments, in the 4300 block of Riverside Drive, near Shoup Mill Road, in Harrison Twp.
Police: Mother, son may have been killed in basement photo
Tonisha Harris is in county lockup after she stole credit cards from the victim. She is the other woman in the relationship. The scumbag was dating two women at the time when all this jumped off.
McKnight's body was found behind the apartments along the river bank, on a steep embankment, Biehl said. She died of "intentional trauma," he said, echoing a preliminary ruling on the woman's cause of death. An autopsy is planned for Saturday morning.

Biehl said there is no evidence that the body of Zaden is in the area, but that the department would be issuing an alert for all area law enforcement jurisdictions located south along the river.

Dayton homicide detectives searched in the same area, along the Stillwater River Trail in the area of Needmore Road and Frederick Pike, for McKnight and her son. Police have been operating on the theory that the two were presumed dead.

McKnight reportedly discovered the thefts days before she disappeared on March 25. Her body was found April 11 near the banks of the Stillwater River.

According to a Dayton police incident report, Harris allegedly stole money from McKnight’s Chase bank account, and made purchases at area Walmarts using McKnight’s credit card. In total she allegedly stole nearly $3,000. The thefts were reportedly committed at the instruction of McKnight’s boyfriend, 26-year-old Antwan Anderson, whom police said was also in a relationship with Harris.

McKnight, an Air Force reservist, is having all her funeral expenses paid for by the local Veterans of Foreign Wars. Air Force officials said McKnight was assigned to the 445th Aeromedical Staging Squadron at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base from March 21, 2008 until March 16 this year, less than two weeks before she disappeared. McKnight received the Air Force commendation medal and was never deployed.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to family of  Nichelle McKnight.

For a midsize city, Dayton, Ohio has a very big problem. As a part of the rust belt, many Americans are unemployed here. With the demand for manufacturing, one would of have thought Dayton as a viable home for jobs.

Alas, it's not.

Dayton and many other cities in the rust belt are still having a little problem. The problem is the perception theory. Many citizens avoid the city because of the perception of crime.

Crime occurs everyday in America.

However, when the media makes a story about a crime, they blow it out of proportion.

Dayton is suffering from blight, White flight and segregation. Intentional or not, Dayton is already in the toilet when it comes to viable places to live. With the high allergy rates, eyesores of abandon homes and businesses, and now 11 known homicides in the first quarter of 2014, it's no wonder Dayton is losing population.
