“I still don’t understand the term “Hate Crime...”

It is a term to describe laws designed to put Caucasians in jail.

crime (n.)

mid-13c., “sinfulness,” from Old French crimne (12c., Modern French crime), from Latin crimen (genitive criminis) “charge, indictment, accusation; crime, fault, offense,” perhaps from cernere “to decide, to sift” (from PIE root *krei- “to sieve,” thus “discriminate, distinguish”).

But Klein (citing Brugmann) rejects this and suggests *cri-men, which originally would have been “cry of distress” (Tucker also suggests a root in “cry” words and refers to English plaint, plaintiff, etc.). Meaning “offense punishable by law” is from late 14c. The Latin word is glossed in Old English by facen, also “deceit, fraud, treachery.” Crime wave first attested 1893, American English.

The student is a bully acting in furtherance of Obamunist tyranny.

If the United Negro College Fund finds no reason to change its name, there is no reason to punish the professor for discussing it as a historical term.

Liberals say they and they alone are smart, educated, rational, tolerant, LOVE.

By their own definition, expressing any other opinion is hate speech if they don’t assume you’re a stupid fool.

And daring to maintain and defend contrary views or failing to go along with their policies wrapped in the mantle of “love, peace and tolerance” is a crime. In the name of tolerance, you’re an evil hater fit for prison if you don’t go along with their fascism wrapped in fuzzy warm and lovey mantle.

The control-left is what maternal dystopia looks like, in contrast to jack boots and power and strength of the paternal dystopia, the tyrannical father archetype. The maternal dystopia is the devouring mother, setting all these rules and trapping you in dependency, out of misplaced compassion and desire to protect.

Here’s some more 60’s nostalgia.

Q:What was the newspaper headline when the first negro was launched into space?

A:”The Jig is Up.”

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture repainted, every statue and street building renamed, every date altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has been stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

Thanks for posting that. This quote from "1984" sums it all up perfectly.

What I find most amusing about Obama’s racial make-up, is that he is as much White as he is Black.

His parents were (mom) White (dad, evidently) Black.

Any attempt to play him off as Black is asinine.

Isn’t ‘negro’ the Spanish word for black?

My wife’s Russian, and in the Russian language, ‘chorney’ is the word for black, and it is considered highly offensive to call a black person ‘chorney’.
Surprisingly, the polite designation is ‘neeagr’.

Also not surprisingly, when she came to America I told her to be careful and not be so polite.
