I posted the above article by Colin Flaherty a couple of hours ago and it was pulled by the Moderator as being "too much." The article at WND begins with a video of a young black man named Mike Hagler who is basically asking (based on his observations) why blacks have to always be so violent at public events.
I posted one comment: ["Yes, I guess I'm a racist. You see I believe the human race is far superior to any other.
If I'm not mistaken, "race" originated with the secular humanists pushing evolution, eugenics and other such nonsense.
"Race" is a racist term used by racists. Can't we all just get along? How about if we use "people groups" instead?"]
I thought the article was pertinent, as we all know that there's a festering racial problem that is dividing us in America and that is being constantly stoked by BHO, his attorney general, minions, fellow community organizers, the MSM, and progressives in general, etc.
Apparently the subject will NOT be discussed here.
Yes, this is obviously a sensitive and very "politically incorrect" subject, but it is my understanding that we Freepers were not politically correct and had vowed to never bow to political correctness. Hey, if we can't discuss it here, then where can we discuss it?
The last time I checked the discussion several hours ago, I noticed that some of the comments were getting a little "harsh." If they were going over the top, then I believe the moderator should have deleted the comments as he deemed them inappropriate, or even locked the thread.
I just don't understand the need to delete this article from the vast archives of the news database that is Free Republic.
Anyway, I'm standing by to be taken to the wood shed for a spanking if I must.
Mine is the guy melted to a puddle with his fingers on the counter.
The pharmacist is looking at a pill bottle and saying "My goodness, Mr. Merriweather, we certainly did make a boo-boo with that prescription of yours!"
(All in good fun.)
Well, ain’t you special?
The title implies subordination to another by way of slave mentality or fealty by way of obligation inferiority.
If you think that is liberal PC then I would submit you are an ass.
Blacks don’t have to behave...as if they are children or inferior.
Is there a problem culturally? Sure. But they don’t have to behave for fear of time out.
While the content could very well be relevant in terms of describing the condition and at the same time posing a path for ascension toward a more noble ideal, The title itself is asinine.
You made your response personal for good reason, perhaps to get attention as if you are some moral superior.
You can’t be if you articulate in your salvo we are inferior.
Argue the points and premise without making it personal.
Your response only proves you have the intellect of a shallow and dry riverbed.
Now, GFY and have a good day.

I don’t need to read the article when the title itself is blatantly insulting, as it was meant to be, so it might be read.
However correct the content might be it starts with an insult that is unnecessary but purposeful to lure people into reading it.
Lame title and I won’t read it for the title alone.
You are an example of concious bigotry, arrogance and a superiority complex that is likely unsustainable on examination.
After reading your comments to me I'm stunned you could find anything offensive. Someone who says GFY isn't as fragile as they think they are...
Thanks Travis
Like the federal goverment, we are not allowed to know the name of the brainless PC person.
When it comes to the timid, it never seems emerge in the other direction. Certainly, not part of the solution.
I was here yesterday and was ticked to find the thread gone with the lamest explanation while I was preparing a relevant contribution..
Silliest thing posted so far this year on FR.
Reminds me of an incident a few years ago (long before Trayvon) when I posted an observation about people wearing hoodies in a hot climate area causing problems in certain neighborhoods in my city.
A moron responded with all the indignance of a professional victim whining that his cancer treatments made in necessary... blah blah blah.
Some people, for their own private mental health reasons, are incapable of grasping the essence of ...if the shoe fits... and its opposite.
I've seen posts that are best described as defying comprehension or even a basic command of the English language. I've certainly seen posts that deny every tenet of conservatism, and posts that make me shake my head in wonder at how someone with such primitive defenses can function in every day life.
But even when I see posts like that, unless they're outright trolls, or provacateurs deserving of having the abuse button pushed on them, I've never been so offended as to resort to name-calling or personal insults.
You are provoked into attack mode on a hair trigger. I've lost any interest in whatever you may have to say about this or any other topic. No reply to this will be acknowledged. Have a nice day.
My comments concern the perceptive value of the title only.
>> Someone who says GFY isn’t as fragile as they think they are...
You’re completely missing the point. It’s about respect for our fellow Black Americans. This has nothing to do with the animals.
Naw, your just stunned....
‘you’re stunned’ ... not ‘your stunned’...
K, Yer stooned and stoned.
The title was a quote from the article, a quote made by a black person. You deny yourself knowledge by such snap judgements.
You are an example of conscious bigotry, arrogance and a superiority complex that is likely unsustainable on examination.
Wow! You know nothing about me yet you make such a comprehensive judgment from one innocent post I made, a post that is nothing like you describe.
Your response was piss poor and the title is as well.
Don’t care if the quote was from the content.
It’s offensive.
I've seen posts that literally defy the Laws of Physics.
:-P
There are always those posters who think The Heineken Uncertainty Principle means you can never be sure how many beers you had last night.

Well put.
