Wrong!!!

Some things are just wrong, like this...



I don't care what your political views are, what you think of the guy, etc., but there is no reason for these kind of stickers to even have been made, let alone being sold!

Good thing is, though, the retailer that was selling these in Dallas was shut down, according to my friends that live there. Apparently, it made the 10pm news.

Any of you have any thoughts?

Have your pride, but respect others

My neighborhood is rather mixed. There are whites, Asians, African-Americans, Hispanics, etc., that all live here. It's quite the melting pot.

The other day, for some strange reason, this old guy decided to raise a rebel flag. There is nothing wrong with that, per se, but the fact that he had a US flag flying previous until the lady across the street started dating a black man and he has all but moved in with her.

I'm not one to assume, but it sure seems as if this is race related and meant to send a message to the guy. Don't you think? The worst part is that his next door neighbors are of the African-American persuasion, and he doesn't seem to have a problem with them. Maybe its the interracial thing? Who knows?

I do not care for the Confederate flag. To me, it is a symbol of one of the darker periods in American history. When I was in high school, our big rivals were Rebels and their band had Confederate flag capes on their uniforms. Not exactly the most P.C. of uniforms. I think since then, they've changed it.

As I was saying, the flag is not my favorite thing, but I do respect it as a sign of one's culture. I live in the south, so I see these things all over the place...even in different colors. I'm sue there are those that have it flying, just because they see others doing, and others that take its meaning literally, and then those that use it for historical purposes.

What it all boils down to is that the guy that is currently flying the flag is all but saying he disapproves of the relationship and should go put on a sheet and hood so he can burn a cross in their yard, based solely on his actions.

Again, I have to say, this all assumptions and not fact. It could just be that he felt the desire to fly a Confederate flag for a few days, but ti does seem rather convenient...

Hitler is back

With Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince coming out this week, it comes to mind that Harry's nemesis is Voldemort, a villain who was once vanquished and then returned with the aid of his helpers/followers (that's a watered down version of those events).

Anyway, I'm not a watcher of Fox News. As a matter of fact, with the exception of Shepherd Smith, I don't even give that mess a second thought, short of flipping through and hearing what fuel Bill O'Reilly will give Keith Olbermann for countdown.

A friend of mine sent this video to me. Now, I'm very tolerant of all viewpoints and don't condemn anyone for what they say, unless its something that is just so blatantly wrong that it can't go without mention.




This guy wants a pure race. Last time someone went around clamoring for a pure race, he more or less started a war. Remember that guy, Hitler. Yes, I'm comparing this guy to Hitler. He's free to say what he feels and all, but to go on TV chastising the US for marrying other races. Even Joel on The Soup was speechless on this.

I have to wonder, though, as Voldemort's return was riddles with hints here and there, if this is this guy is some kind of Neo-Hitler emissary.

Yeah, that theory sounds gives us all a chuckle, but what he said is highly offensive and looking at that chick's face, even took the ultra-conservative Fox folks by surprise.

What do you think?
