Clint Eastwood is still Alive so making a day to remember him would be almost as ridiculous as giving a president elect the peace prize (Almost). Washington and Lincoln have president's day but those are so heavily co-opted as to be worthless. We need something like a Pioneer/Paul Bunyan/Johnny Appleseed/Pecos Bill/Real Man stereotype day. I noticed a concerted effort to make Independence day a communitarian cop fest where the fire martial and chief of police blow each other to restricted fireworks while celebrating the otherwise universal ban on "dangerous explosives" like Bottle Rockets and Sparklers. Maybe a Patrick Henry Day... it could take place after St patricks day, and then like the Washington Lincoln day, we could eventually conflate them into St. Patrick Henry Day, get drunk on the night and go out the next morning with a bunch of guns and chase the snakes out of Washington while screaming "Liberty or Death!" |

What a fucking double standard. Imagine if white people held a show that honored and awarded people for being white. How do these people get away with this shit? Is this really what MLK wanted? What happened to equality? I'm so fucking sickened by this country it's not even finny. The civil rights movement has been hijacked and turned into a way to discriminate against Whites. I really don't think that's what MLK intended. |

I don't hear anyone complaining except for many here amongst themselves. Perhaps you guys are creating your own reality. The way some of you sound it's as if you were women in the 1920s fighting for their rights, or blacks in the 1960s. |

Its always, the racist old crackers teaching the young ones we blacks are bad, we blacks are lazy, we blacks impose on their territories, force ourselves upon their white women, and about how the government takes their money to pay for our lazy black asses. Its the old white man that created the racially charged legal systems, the ones that made the prisons to collect as many of my brothers and my sisters, through unjust sentences to chain us and lock us up again. And then they get their free labor from us, working our asses for pennies a day. That is what the racist white crackers do, and they have 365 days a damn year over the black man. old white guy day, bunch of racist pigs. Mommas youngest getting paper like the oldest one.. We living better guess God felt he owed us one. ------------------- i was born a sweet lil babi but them staven streets raized me up crazy -------------------- I always give 100% at work: 13% Monday 22% Tuesday 26% Wednesday 35% Thursday 4% Friday |

Well done. I believe it was Westinghouse that ended up with Tesla's AC technology, Edison's DC power technology required extremely heavy wiring to transmit the same power. In any case they were all "Old White guys" My personal favorite is Willis Carrier, he invented Air Conditioning we should erect a 200 foot tall statue to this man!!

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 17846218 02/02/2013 02:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You guys shouldn't interpret this thread as complaints. I am saying that the new societal norm tries to demonize the "old white guys" and attempts to replace old fashion western civilization and culture with some sort of new mix from all around the world. Why should we abandon the very culture which created our country? Especially for a third world culture which has failed totally... hence all these other folks who have arrived at our shores to suck from the USA teat, yet aspire to destroy the host with every breath!! Let's keep doing what we know works!!! I attended the INTEL international science fair 3 years ago... the main program celebrated all these weird cultures from all over the world. there were people in grass skirts and flaming torches hopping around all over the stage. Those people had contributed NOTHING other than maybe a few coconuts to the world... yet that was being pushed in everyones faces... screw that!!! Give me Willis Carrier any day!!! Our old granpa's had it right!! Let's press on with that!!! |
