Problem solved.
Dang, sign me up for some chicken, catfish, coke and biscuits any time.
What??? No watermelon????
No wonder black folks were upset at the suggestion.
Pretty regular southern fare...and I'm sure they'd be happy to get it - heck, you could get plenty of plain regular folk of any color down for a good feed in return for some work..
Good Grief - SOME one's gonna have to publish a list of words, phrases we can no longer utter!
'Seems to me it's mostly a case of, like beauty and the eye of the beholder, "an offense isn't an offense until someone who's oversensitive thinks it is." - or, "Anything said by a white republican is automatically offensive..."
This has got to stop...
Macon, a city I know well, is a cesspool thanks to the ignorant idiots that vote for anyone as long as they “stick to the man” and “speak truth to power.”
The so called mayor is an ass. He, if you recall, recently became a mooslimb and declared some day Hugo Chavez day. All this instead of actually doing some work like fixing the streets or improving the city’s prospects.
I have lived there and Macon has always been a weird little town, but this mayor and the current bunch of socialist should spell the end of anything decent in that town. My parent’s taxes are as high if not higher than mine here in one of the nicest parts of Atlanta.
Not sure I see the problem.
Imagine going through life worried that someone is going to offer you “chicken, catfish, coke and biscuits”.
That would just make a person weary.
Heck, all this article did was to make me hungry...Except I'd substitute a Pepsi for the Coke (actually I'd go with my non-HFC cola, but I digress...).
Al Fecal Sharpton says it OK.
What! No Moon Pies? That’s just wrong...
Some people are so thin skinned it’s a wonder that their organs don’t fall out.
After institutional prison food? You bet!
Imagine that every meal you ate for the last (mumble mumble) years came out of your high school cafeteria.
Now imagine they won't let you have salt, pepper, ketchup, mustard, butter, or even forks...
There is NOTHING black about catfish, chicken, biscuits, and coke.
My favorite comment below the article:
Lets not worry about unemployed black men standing on every corner or sitting on every porch, lets not worry about unwed black teenage mothers, AIDS, Drugs, crime in the city, welfare, black on black crime. No,lets worry about catfish and chicken and coke. You people are so stupid.
If it was PC, I hate to tell them but that was necessary...and silly to stop at that point.
I once made a list of things Mom used to feed or threaten to feed us kids, things that were from the Old Country that Grandmom routinely served her, that are commonly considered "soul food".
I hate the legal bastards who threaten organizations with predictions of dire consequences shold they ever get sued for race discrimination and they haven't bought thier "sensitivity training".
I've stated it many times that the money spent on those jerks should go to a different ethnic/cultural/whatever group every month, to be spent on food and just food for a group lunch.
My rationale is this, everybody but the English have something good in their cusine. That's a positive experience with a different culture. It breaksdown a barrier and encourages further interaction and tolerance. And it's really hard to hate someone who feeds you.
I’m white and of Irish extraction. Do I get potatoes and hash? What do we Irish have to do to get chicken, catfish, coke and biscuits? Do we get all the whiskey, or do I have to keep drinking Liberty Valance’s single malts?
I’m not seeing any reader’s comments anywhere on that page...How do you reach them?
sounds like a fine meal for those boys. Many folks would be happy to have the opportunity for a good hot meal.
