BREAKING: ZIMMERMAN ARRESTED AGAIN!

He is aiming for a lifetime stay in the iron college.

George Zimmerman is arrested again.

Got acquitted of murder and yet he manages to test the bar. It's going to be highly likely he'll commit a crime and he may not be able escape the charge.

The Associated Press and the Orlando Sentinel reports that Zimmerman was involved in a disturbance in the Seminole County area. According to WFTV (Orlando), the deputies have been called to the area where he's hiding.

The unincorporated Apopka, Florida is close to Lake Mary. That's where his estranged wife Shellie lives.

The disturbance was at a residence. But its allegedly a domestic violence incident.

He is in the John E. Polk lockup in Sanford, Florida today.

This is an ongoing story, we'll be covering the latest developments here on Journal de la Reyna.

Tragedy In The Heartland!

Washington, Illinois suffered a mass outbreak of late season tornadoes.

From Kansas to New York, the heartland was hit with a bunch of massive storms that spawn tornadoes and damaging winds. Many Americans were rocked by late season weather that proved to be devastating.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those lost in this horrible tragedy.

Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania and numerous states have confirmed a tornado touchdown.

How is this possible in the middle of the fall season?

Somehow it's a pattern that we've come accustomed to. I live in Ohio and the weather events are unique.

About three weeks ago they had an EF-0 tornado hit my community. And then we had about an inch of snow a week ago. Now last night we experienced a weather event that caused super cell storms which launched over 70 tornadoes.
Storm spotters see an EF-4 tornado.
Governors Pat Quinn (Illinois), Mike Pence (Indiana), John Kasich (Ohio), Tom Corbett (Pennsylvania) and Steve Beshear (Kentucky) declared a state of emergency for areas ravaged by the storm events.

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden may tour the area in the coming days.

In Peoria and Washington, Illinois to Lebanon and Kokomo, Indiana there were confirmed EF-4 tornadoes that ravaged through the communities.

At confirmation there's at least 10 deaths from this weather event.

Again if you want to help especially when it comes to blood and cash donations, visit the American Red Cross and the United Way for assistance.

Booing At Obama!

obamas basketball game

Conservatives are gleeful that the president's second term is going down hard.

Even at one of the president's favorite events, say a basketball game, the crowd is a tad bit unruly.

It seems like with a job approval in the 30s and 40s means that you're a lame duck.

The American Care Act is an anchor that hung around the president's neck despite the country going through a government shutdown that cost over $24 billion in lost revenue.

The Republicans took a huge hit for this and yet they've managed to take the heat off them for a moment.

The Democrats who are barely holding control of the U.S. Senate fear that the junk food media's coverage of the healthcare law will doom their chances at the Midterms.

Also at this basketball game being played by the University of Oregon (coached by the president's brother-in-law, Craig Robinson) and the University of Maryland, you can hear cheers and a bunch of loud boos.

Yeah, its going to be a rough four years.

Jay-Z: Barneys Is My Best Friend!

The Streets Are Watching!

Yeah, the media mogul is strung up in this controversy involuntarily. After a young man went into the luxury store and purchased a belt, he thought he was going to be the fliest cat on the block.

The belt was high end and he had the credit. But as he got down the street, he was stopped by the NYPD.

He and many others filed a class action lawsuit against Barneys. There's a boycott on the business and of course Shawn Carter (aka Jay-Z) is a spokesperson and brand to the luxury store.

Now he's coming under a huge amount of criticism for embracing the company. He told the junk food media that he's down with Barneys.

The Associated Press reports that Jay-Z announced Friday he’ll move forward with a planned collaboration with Barneys New York despite recent allegations of racial profiling at the luxury store, an ongoing investigation into the claims and public pressure that he back out of the deal.

In a statement on his website, Jay-Z said he’d agreed to move forward with next week’s launch of his BNY SCC collection under the condition that he helps lead the store’s review of its policies.

“The easy position would have been to walk away and leave policymaking to others hoping that someone addresses the problem,” said Jay-Z. “I will take this into my own hands with full power to recommend, review and revise policies and guidelines moving forward. I am choosing to take this head on.”

He said 100 percent of sales from the collection of clothes, accessories and jewelry will go toward his charitable foundation, which supports educational opportunities for disadvantaged students, and an additional 10 percent of all Barneys’ sales during Wednesday’s launch day will also be donated.

Barneys New York said in a statement that it guaranteed raising a minimum of $1 million Wednesday to be donated to the foundation.

“Barneys New York has zero tolerance for any form of discrimination,” the statement said. “As we have stated all along, if we learn any procedures or practices are not consistent with our zero-tolerance policy, we will immediately take corrective action including terminating those employees responsible.”

Last month, two black customers separately accused the luxury store of racial profiling after they said they lawfully purchased expensive items but were detained by police on suspicion of credit card fraud.
See you in court! - Trayon Christian.
Trayon Christian sued Barneys, saying he was accused of fraud after using his debit card to buy a $349 Ferragamo belt in April. Kayla Philips filed a notice of claim saying she would sue after she was stopped by detectives outside the store when she bought a $2,500 Celine handbag in February.

Ron Brown, an actor who appears on the HBO series “Treme,” also filed a lawsuit in October against Macy’s, alleging he’d been similarly detained and questioned after he was stopped for possible credit card fraud while shopping at the department store. Brown is black.

Macy’s has said none of its employees were involved in Brown’s detention and questioning. On Friday, Barneys said its own investigation has determined none of its employees were involved in stopping Christian or Philips.

An investigation by the state attorney general’s office is “ongoing and active,” a spokeswoman said Friday.

New York Police Department Commissioner Raymond Kelly has said it is standard practice for retailers to call police if they believe crimes have been committed. The NYPD didn't immediately respond to a message seeking comment Friday.

Jay-Z’s decision to not immediately bow out of his Barneys collaboration when the racial profiling allegations surfaced drew a firestorm of criticism on Twitter and an online petition that urged the rap mogul to bow out.

Jay-Z appears on Roc-A-Fella Records and Roc Nation, LLC.

Breitbart: Black ESPN Host Is A Proud N****!

Breitfart wants Black commentator fired for embracing the infamous racial slur.

Conservatives: Why "you people" say the N-word like it's nothing? When we say it, you call us racist!

This is what the racial extremists believe. They feel like "us Black folk" police their usage of the N-word.

In a country that allows the "freedom of speech", we allow the racial extremists to say the slur. When you say the slur and you happen to be a White person, you may find yourself at the end of a boycott or public shaming. Yeah, there's a such thing as public shaming, because we figure that putting your face in the open proves Oprah Winfrey's point.

She said that it's still here in the United States and for all this to go away, the old school extremists must die off and maybe we can move forward to racial unity.

Since May 2012, interracial births skyrocketed. It's going to be in less than 30 years, WHITES (Non-Hispanic) will eventually become a minority.

No I'm not trying to sound racist or endorse actual statistics. I hate touching the third rail of race. You know that it's honey to a critic. We all agree its a sensitive topic.

I have no animosity towards anyone's race, gender, sexuality, nationality, political and economic standings.

But no matter what I say or do, or even write on this blog, someone will always assume "I'm a racist" because I criticize a conservative or point out an issue involving race.

Everyone is human in my eye. Despite our differences, we are human beings first, Americans second and our race, third.

Conservatives don't understand the plight and continue to forget that the N-word spoken by White people continues to have negative connotation towards Black people.

Yeah, Black people can be "ignant" and "our own worst enemy".

But in the relations towards the red hot hostility towards President Barack Obama, Trayvon Martin, Renisha McBride, and any Black entertainer, athlete, scholar or politicians by White people makes it more likely to have a unison.

It's probably not a good idea for conservatives to police "us Black folk" when it comes to the N-word.

It's not like we can stop a White conservative or White liberal from speaking the racial slur. They speak it when they buy Rick Ross, Lil' Wayne and Drake while listening to the latest singles.

Eminem, the most successful White rapper has spoken it before. We gave him a pass during the whole fiasco between him and The Source Magazine.

Have you watched any Blaxploitation movies like Coffy, Black Caesar, Shaft and Big Truck ?

It must be a slow weekend for the junk food media. I mean we're so focused on the troubled Healthcare Marketplace and Alec Baldwin's outbursts.

I mean how much time is being spent wasting on tabloid stories?

Anyway,  the weekend does have its fair share of stories that are posted by me and S. Baldwin.

That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall has another good "race story" courtesy of Breitfart.

Matt Barnes (right) of the LA Clippers with wife Gloria Govan.
The Breitfart staff is singling out Michael Wilbon of ESPN for embracing the "abbreviated slur".

The show Pardon The Interruption is a feature on ESPN and Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser debate the latest sports topics.

Wilbon was criticizing the Los Angles Clippers small forward Matt Barnes' online rant about his teammates losing. He found the antics not troubling but spoke about how "us Black folk" use the word like it's nothing.

Wilbon, an African-American said, "People can be upset with me if they want, I, like a whole lot of people, use the N-word all day, every day, my whole life."

Co-host Kornheiser suggested that NBA Comissioner David Stern, and his counterparts at the NFL and MLB, would have to prohibit players from using the word in public. Wilbon bristled and said, "I have a problem with… white people framing the discussion for the use of the N-word." He also likened the commissioners to plantation owners dictating whether African-Americans could use a word that had been thrust upon them.

Matt Barnes posted on the social networks his now infamous tweet: “I love my teammates like family, but I’m DONE standing up for these Niggas! All this shit does is cost me money.”

Barnes is biracial and married to a Black woman.
Andrew Breitfart died in March 2012. He left a legacy of grandstanding and all out race baiting.
Breitfart's Larry O'Conner wrote that Wilbon was in the presence of President Barack Obama during one of his many golf outings.

Of course, you know how conservatives react to the president going to a golf outing.

This is a big issue among WHITE CONSERVATIVES. They believe that they'll be punished for saying NIGGER or NIGGA around the presence of Black people.

They figured its a double standard if the Black person says NIGGA.

After all conservative complain that "us Black folk" use it in hip-hop and Black themed movies.

So why is fair to say the N-word when it comes to "us Black folk" and not White people?

Murder Charges For The Homeowner Who Killed Renisha McBride!

Renisha McBride was shot and killed earlier this month by a homeowner. He claims self defense.

Dearborn Heights, Michigan. The nation is following the shooting of Renisha McBride. The 19-year old woman was shot in the back of her head after she knocked on the door of a man who claimed "self-defense".

She was involved in an accident and was seeking help.

Theodore Wafer is facing charges. The 54-year old man turned himself in today.

I assure you that once it goes viral, expect the conservative agitators to take the side of the shooter. Expect That Guy Who Helped Obama Win get the first interview with Wafer.

Loserville will make this another event where they can tag this to President Barack Obama.

Theodore Wafer.
Expect Oprah Winfrey (and most of Black America) to be proven right once the junk food media makes this situation go viral. Because in a WHITE ON BLACK CRIME event, the suspect is innocent until proven guilty. The racial extremist will always look upon the president and Black America as the agitators of racism.

Every crime in America caused by a Black person, likely 90% of the time the suspect is caught and given lengthy prison sentence. Of course, in BLACK ON WHITE CRIME events, the suspect is caught. The racial extremist assumes all Black, Hispanic and worshiping Muslims are guilty until proven innocent. And if they're found innocent, they'll blame President Barack Obama.

If a White person commits a crime and it reaches the junk food media, it's often ignored unless its a "hot teacher" or a "mentally insane shooter"

Wafer had said he believed the woman was trying to break into his home about 3:40 a.m. Nov. 2.

McBride’s family believes she may have been seeking assistance following her crash into a parked car about an hour earlier when she knocked on Wafer’s shut and locked screen door.

McBride was killed by a shotgun blast to the face, which the prosecutor said was fired through the closed screen, and the homeowner claimed the gun discharged accidentally.

City of Dearborn Heights.
According to dispatch records, Wafer waited about an hour to call 911 to report that he’d shot someone on his front porch.

Toxicology reports released Thursday by the Wayne County medical examiner’s office showed McBride’s blood-alcohol level at the time of her death was 0.218, ten times higher than what’s permitted for drivers younger than 21, and marijuana was also detected.
Burying Renisha McBride was the most saddest day for her family.
But Dr. Werner Spitz, the longtime Wayne County medical examiner and one of the preeminent experts in forensic pathology, reviewed the report and said that the level of THC, which is the active ingredient in marijuana, was low enough to suggest that she hadn’t used it the day of her death.

The shooting of McBride, who is black, prompted comparisons to the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin last year by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman.

Perennial Loser Mitt Romney: One Year Later, Still A Failure!

One year later they still continue to be total asshole.

CBS This Morning had the opportunity to meet Mr. and Mrs. Condescending. They come back to reflect on their days on the election trail and the great epic fail of Obamacare.

Perennial loser Mitt Romney had an opportunity to get a dig at President Barack Obama's handling of the healthcare law.

With Charlie Rose, Gayle King and Norah O'Donnell, the perennial loser and Ann spoke out against the president's "honesty".

"What starts twisted stays twisted," says the perennial loser to Charlie Rose.

"The real problem that the president has is a broken promise. That’s of course, what’s really striking at the heart of his term."

"When the systems are working, people will still lose, and already have, millions of people losing their insurance they were promised they would not," he continued.

"And you think the president lied to the American people on purpose for a political gain?" Rose asked.

Norah O'Donnell asks the perennial loser if the fighting within the Republican Party could damage their chances in the 2016 presidential election.

"The place that my campaign, and I, fell short was probably being able to speak openly and effectively to minority populations," he confessed.

"So, do you now favor an immigration proposal?" O’Donnell asked.

"I am absolutely convinced that the Republican Party must deal with immigration," Romney asserted.

I'm assuring that the Republican controlled House of Representatives will fail at pass comprehensive immigration reform. I won't make a $10,000 bet to prove a point.

Oprah: Low Polls For Obama Are Likely Due To His Race!

Oprah is telling the truth. President Barack Obama suffers because of his race.

I agree in a way that is never said before. You have to really be that bad to have a job approval in the 30s.

It seems like President Barack Obama is struggling for success with a job approval in the toilet.

His biggest supporter and fellow Chicagoan spoke to the British press about America's still long road to equal rights. She tells the interviewer that since growing up, she thought that racism is still marinated and embedded in those who would never accept President Barack Obama.

Oprah Winfrey is a media mogul who has a very strong impact here in the United States and abroad. She allocates to the apartheid in South Africa and the red hot disrespect towards President Obama.

She even reference the infamous "YOU LIE" incident by South Carolina Republican lawmaker Joe Wilson.

She stated that if the racial extremists would die, then maybe we will get progress.

"There are still generations of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism, and they just have to die," she said.

Gompertz also asked her if it had ever crossed her mind that President Obama has faced racism.

"Probably it's crossed my mind more times than it's crossed your mind," Oprah replied. "...I think that there is a level of disrespect for the office that occurs. And that occurs in some cases and maybe even many cases because he is African American. There's no question about that and it's the kind of thing nobody ever says but everybody's thinking it."

Conservatives pounced on it.

Most conservatives hate being called racist. They believe that it's a product of Oprah and the president's constant tricks to make the Republicans look like the bad guys!

Loserville even jumped into the fray by saying that most racists are accustomed to being a part of the "Left".

So the conservative network is saying racism exists but only on the left.

The Black and Hispanic community aren't keen to the Republican Party. The only Republican so far to win a election with a strong showing of Black or Hispanic votes is New Jersey governor Chris Christie.

The most recent Republican to see a deficit in the Black and Hispanic vote is Ken Cuccinelli. And he had a Black running mate. But he lost his bid for Virginia governor.

Homework assignment: Name three individuals in the junk food media who are considerable in their racial extremism?  It does matter if they're Republican or Democrat. It doesn't matter if the person is White, Hispanic or Black.

If you got a name, lay it down for us here at Journal de la Reyna.

Loserville Is Most The Trusted? Yeah Right!

NewsBusters logo
What is the Media Research Center smoking on?









I click on That Guy Who Throw Shit To The Wall's website and as usual more stories that focus on Black crime. More stories trying to mislead readers about the healthcare law. And the most ridiculous thing is a link to Newsbusters.

Newbusters is a conservative media watchdog group that covers allegations of liberal bias in the junk food media. It's founded by right wing extremist Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center.

Noel Shepard, editor-in-chief of the conservative blog takes an unscientific poll to prove that Loserville is the most fairest in coverage of the healthcare law and President Barack Obama.

Mr. Shepard, you really have to be fucking stupid. Not only that network has misled its gullible audience with numerous accusations towards the president but this network has sparked confusion, accusation and malcontent towards his allies in the Democratic Party or individuals they deem inferior to the conservative movement.

YouGov, a polling firm that associate with Loserville on occasions have conducted a survey of who's the most trustworthy in the healthcare debate.

They concluded when Americans are asked to pick the one source of information about the new health care law that they trust the most, Loserville tops the list. Most trusted by 19% of Americans, the basic cable news channel narrowly beats out 'friends and family' (17%).

President Obama (11%) is the third most trusted source, followed by National Public Radio (10%) and people's own insurance companies (9%).

So let me get this straight! If Loserville is telling their viewers and listeners about the healthcare law in a highly negative fashion, those family and friends will tell others. The constant harping of the likes of the turdporters, That Guy Who Helped Obama Win, Greta The Ambulance Chaser, Bill-O, and the Bow Tie Manchild have also made the law more toxic.

Loserville has stroked the most contentious and outlandish attacks against the healthcare law.

The Republican lawmakers have avoided explaining the law to their constituents. They spent a majority of their time in the House and Senate trying to undermine the law and the president.
The Republican Party's press secretary.
They have a big microphone with the junk food media. Loserville and talk radio have motivate pessimistic WHITE PEOPLE to not sign up. It's a requirement by law for all Americans to have insurance coverage.

The WHITE PEOPLE who are fixated on phobias and irrationality are likely to be the driving force to having criticism towards the law.

Republicans are the party of WHITE MEN and EXTREMISTS.

Loserville is the press secretary of the Republican Party.

They made it no secret they attack the president on the most trivial things. From Dijon mustard to Trayvon Martin. From golf outings to his birth certificate.

Loserville has been in the forefront of the lies and hateful rhetoric of President Barack Obama, the Black and Latino communities.

They are plotting for a Republican takeover of Congress. They know the law will work. They've played every card they could afford. They've delayed the law and took it to court.

And despite the fallout, I believe that the law will work for the good of all Americans.

Democrats are spineless. They fear the reactionary. They fear the Republicans could take back Congress and drive this country back into the crapper.

If you are disappointed about the healthcare rollout, that's fine. Understand. Hear you loud and clear.

But seriously, all the hoopla and knee capping isn't necessary. It's just plain silly.

Republicans All Of Sudden Love Bill Clinton!

"The president should honor the commitment the federal government made to those people and let them keep what they've got," Clinton told OZY.com.
Bill Clinton criticizes the healthcare law giving Republicans more ammunition to repeal it.

The former President of The United States speaks to an online show and Republicans pounce on it.

Calling President Barack Obama a liar over "you can keep" is like saying former president George W. Bush saying Iraq harbored "weapons of mass destruction".

One clear difference of  Obama and Bush. Obama never sent people into war. Although he's a war president, he didn't lead American soldiers into Iraq. Bush did and has no regrets over misleading the nation into it.

The healthcare law is an ongoing obsession for the Republicans and its allies of the conservative movement.

They spent a majority of legislative time trying to repeal or defund the law. Like most lawmakers, they are to inform their constituents of the changes in the law. Most Republicans spent a majority of their time telling their constituents that they think "OBAMACARE" is a threat to the heart of America.

Now the left is really pissed at Bill Clinton. He speaks ill about the greatest achievement in President Barack Obama's legacy. He talks about it and the conservative agitators are saying "AH-HA, WE TOLD YOU SO!"

Now some liberal agitators are so pissed at Clinton, they promised that Hillary Clinton will suffer because of this. The liberals are threatening to derail a potential Hillary Clinton nomination.

Clinton said: "The president should honor the commitment the federal government made to those people and let them keep what they've got. [However], we're better off with this program than we are without it."

Even former vice president Dick Cheney is speaking favorably of Clinton's comments.

The House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) has put his tissues in his purse. He goes forth with a statement saying "RIGHT ON BILL! RIGHT ON!"

Many think that the former president's comments have a negative impact on the law. Clinton's comments derail the White House talking points.
Boehner was weeping tears of joy when former president Bill Clinton spoke about the problems with the Affordable Care Act. The Republicans are obsessed with repealing the law.
The Affordable Healthcare Act was signed into law in 2010 and its been the scorn of Republicans.

The Republicans repealed the law over 45 times and even contested it in the U.S. Supreme Court. The Supreme Court ruled it valid and handed Republicans a huge defeat.

So during its implications, the legislators failed at addressing their constituents and hence forth a bunch of misinformed Americans who believe in "death panels".

Loserville and conservative agitators have spread malicious information about the law. It may force individuals to ignore the law and pay penalties for no complying.

Bill Clinton's comments have implications to the general electorate. He's still a popular figure.

What do you think of the comments?

Were they out of line, or in the place of what the situation is?

Do you think these comments could impact a potential Hillary Clinton bid for president?



______________________

Two months ago, the former president speaks about the healthcare law in a positive way.

The Face Of The Healthcare Marketplace Got Death Threats!

The model for Healthcare.gov told the junk food media that she face "death threats" and rampant harassment online.

It seems like conservatives and the reactionary have no shame when it comes to their fellow Americans.

The model who was on the beginning page of the Healthcare Marketplace is being severely harassed by those arm chair assholes.

Ever since it's launch, the Healthcare.gov website has been experiencing problems. All I've heard for the last few weeks is the talk of the website and not the law. I've heard turdporters and agitators in the media complain about the website day in and day out.

So much distortion and half truths plague the media. This has probably made the rollout a whole lot worse when you're the "official face" of the law.

The woman only identified as "Adriana" has spoke to ABC News about the ordeal.
Screenshot of young woman was removed.
When her face was the first thing you see when you went to the website, no one would expect her face to become a viral sensation.

Adriana, who asked that only her first name be used, said she was speaking out now to defend herself after weeks of enduring online lampooning.

"They have nothing else to do but hide behind the computer. They're cyberbullying," Adriana told ABC News' Amy Robach.

The picture was ultimately pulled from the front page, which Adriana called a "relief."

"They took the picture down. I wanted the picture down, and they wanted the picture down. I don't think anybody wanted to focus on the picture," she said.

But a Department of Health and Human Services spokesperson told ABC that the photo was not removed because Adriana requested it.

Married for more than six years with a 21-month old son, Adriana reached out to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services to inquire about having photos of her family taken in exchange for permitting their use on the website. She was notified in the summer that her photo would be used on the front page.

Calling herself "pure Colombian," Adriana said she's lived in the United States for more than six years and is applying for citizenship. Her husband is an American citizen.

Amy Robach of ABC News confirmed that she has breast cancer and its planning on having a double mastectomy in the coming months. Right now she will contribute to 20/20 while Elizabeth Vargas is out on medical leave for alcoholism and depression.

She was a victim of hateful rhetoric as well.

Richard Cohen: Bill de Blasio's Mixed Family Makes Me Puke!

Washington Post opinion columnist wrote another aim at the Black community. Could this attack be the end of his longtime career at the newspaper?

Richard Cohen maybe one sentence away from a pink slip after he made an offensive comment about mayor-elect of New York City, Bill de Blasio and his family.

He claims that biracial families make him "PUKE".

As usual, the Washington Post opinion writer pens a piece criticizing Black people.

In turn he's criticizing the interracial family. Bill de Blasio is married to a Black woman.

And he's got a miserable history of inflammatory statements criticizing the Black community in general.

Cohen wrote a column in 1986 which argued owners of jewelry stores were right to refuse to allow entry to young black men because of a fear of crime. This column led to the Washington Post having to apologize.

Following the acquittal of George Zimmerman for the shooting of Trayvon Martin in July 2013, Cohen wrote "a controversial column in which he defends George Zimmerman's suspicion of Travyon Martin and calls on politicians to acknowledge that a disproportionate amount of crimes are committed by black males".

The column went on to say that Cohen "can understand why Zimmerman was suspicious and why he thought Martin was wearing a uniform we all recognize;" in any case, he also points out that:
New York City elected Bill de Blasio as their mayor. Conservative mounted a full scale attack on de Blasio and his family.
"What I'm trying to deal with is, I'm trying to remove this fear from racism. I don't think it's racism to say, 'this person looks like a menace,'" 

"Now, a menace in another part of the country could be a white guy wearing a wife-beater under-shirt. Or, if you're a black guy in the South and you come around the corner and you see a member of the Ku Klux Klan".

Towards the end of the column, Cohen calls Trayvon Martin "a young man understandably suspected because he was black".

On November 4, 2013, Cohen wrote a column about the much talked about Oscar buzz film “12 Years a Slave”, in which he evinced personal ignorance of the history of slavery in the U.S. and a negative view of abolitionist writer Harriet Beecher Stowe, writing: "Instead, beginning with school, I got a gauzy version. I learned that slavery was wrong, yes, that it was evil, no doubt, but really, that many blacks were sort of content. Slave owners were mostly nice people — fellow Americans, after all — and the sadistic Simon Legree was the concoction of that demented propagandist, Harriet Beecher Stowe."

Shortly afterwards, on November 11, in the course of a column about New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, Cohen referred to the recent victory of Bill De Blasio as Mayor of New York, writing:

"People with conventional views must repress a gag reflex when considering the mayor-elect of New York — a white man married to a black woman and with two biracial children." 

This statement was widely condemned.

Anyway, what's your opinion of it?

Me and S. Baldwin explained this multiple times.

Color doesn't matter. As long as individuals share a common interest and love for one another, it's satisfaction. I don't discriminate against a person's race when it comes to relationships.

Cohen is entitled to be a blowhard conservative bigot. He's perfectly fine. I mean after he's fired from The Washington Post, maybe he'll get a job with people he'll feel comfortable with.

They're hiring over at the Loserville Nation, Breitfart and WorldNutDaily.
