BET Attendees Holler "Obama Or Die!" During Awards Ceremony
Gateway Pundit | June 25, 2008

Posted on 06/25/2008 11:56:46 AM PDT by Fox_Mulder77

Kim Whitley (in the Obama shirt), Flo Rida, Lil Mama, Young Joc and Mc Lyte praise Obama from the red carpet at the Black Entertainment Awards in America. BBC has video of the interviews HERE.

The BET crowd joined together to holler "Obama or Die" (video here) last night at the annual awards show. MyWay reported:

Barack Obama didn't attend the BET Awards, but that didn't stop attendees from talking about him.

"If we all register and vote, we will have the first black president in the history of America," Sean "Diddy" Combs told the crowd Tuesday at the Shrine Auditorium before chanting "Obama or Die" - a declarative remix of his neutral "Vote or Die" motto from the 2004 presidential election, when he attempted to boost the youth vote.

Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, was just a few blocks away at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for a fundraiser with a Hollywood guest list that included supermodels Heidi Klum and Cindy Crawford, boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard and movie stars Samuel L. Jackson and John Malkovich. While Obama didn't make an appearance at the BET Awards - either live or on tape - his presence was felt.

As she picked up her award for best female R&B artist, Alicia Keys told the crowd that it's time for black people to erase the word "can't" from their vocabulary.

"Together we can do anything," she said, playing on the Democrat's "Yes We Can" mantra before shouting: "Obama y'all!" It does make you wonder what the inaugural ball will be like come January.

WET Awards are only given out during White History Month. I hear that the Congressional White Caucus may be sending a couple of Congressmen to do some presenting.

Ugh...

You should have turned around and said back to him, “David Duke.”

I’d always read Malkovich was a right-winger. Hmmm.

Maybe when Rush visits his head, he feels like one.

There were almost riots in 2000 and 2004. The radical Left will riot one of these days when they don’t get their way.

“So will there be riots on the street if America does not elect Obama this Fall?”

Win OR lose is my guess.

I wonder when the media will come up with: “Will there be riots if Obama is not elected?”

You know what? I don't think any of us think the future state of affairs in this country is funny at all. But we don't feel much like crying at this point.

Wandering Down to Walmart

To gain a clearer perspective regarding what this means in terms of our daily contacts with people, let’s take a trip down to a local Walmart. Let’s suppose we’re visiting the only Walmart in a small, rural town, so that neighborhood inhomogeneities don’t affect the cohort of shoppers we’ll find at the store. That way, we’ll be seeing a nearly random cross-section of the public on our trip.

OK. Here we are at Walmart. I can already see quite a few people out here in the parking lot.

Let’s suppose that we’re going to see 100 other customers while we’re here shopping, and then consider their breakdown by IQ. On the basis of the law of averages, we’d expect to see one person here with an IQ below 64! There’d be someone else with an IQ between 64 and 68. There should be 3 more with IQs between 69 and 75. In other words, if this is a random crowd, 1 out of 20 people we’re going to meet will have IQs below 75, and will be seriously retarded! (I guess we’re lucky the world works as well as it does.)

Keep your eyes peeled. See if you can spot ‘em. About 1 out of 10 people we’ll walk past here at Walmart has an IQ below 80, or about 10 of the 100 people who cross our paths here in the store! Hey, look! Does she look kind of sagaciously-challenged to you?

One out of 5, or 20 of the 100 people we’re seeing have IQs below 87, with about 1 in 10 in the 80 to 87 IQ range. Half the crowd, or 50 out of the 100, has below-average intelligence! And of course, the other half has above-average intelligence. Twenty of them (1 out of 5) have IQs above 113. Ten of them, or 1 in 10, have IQs above 120. Five of them have IQs above 125, and have the potential to become university professors with Ph. D’s. Two of them have IQs of 132 or above, and are potential members of Mensa. One of them has an IQ above 136.

Did you spot them? I saw one or two possible candidates, but I suppose we’d better not walk up and say,
“Pardon me, ma’am. You look mentally challenged. Are you?”
She might hit us with her purse.

If we spent time at a large urban mall, we might rub elbows with 1,000 shoppers. In an average, unenriched setting, where we saw 1,000 other shoppers at Christmas-time, IQs might typically be expected to range between 50 and 150. In a blue-stocking suburb like Norcross or Corte Madera, we might expect to find one or more folk with IQs above 150, and perhaps, an individual or two with an IQ above 160. This is a huge range of IQs.

I think that the range of intellects that we walk past in the world is awesome. The span between top and bottom among 100 people chosen at random would be about 75 points of deviation IQ, or more than 80 points of ratio IQ. And we’ve been walking past them every day.

This isn’t the whole story. It’s mentioned below that even on culture-fair tests, the average IQ of our African-American population falls about one standard deviation below those of the other components of our population. This means that 1 out of 10 African-Americans has an IQ below 59, and only about 2 Africans in 1,000 can qualify for Mensa. So most probably, on our trip to Walmart, we’re going see an African-American with an IQ of 60 or below (mental age of 10).

Until I wrote this up this afternoon, I had never stopped to think just what intellectual diversity awaits us at our local shopping centers. Half the people we meet in cars on the road have below-average intelligence, and 1 in 20 must be seriously retarded, with a mental age of 12 or below. Ouch! I think I’ll ride my bike on back streets to the store.—http://www.geocities.com/rnseitz/Definition_of_IQ.html

And just imagine how great it is that every low grade morons vote counts as much as yours and mine.

Deal with it lady. Seeing Obama or Die T-shirts? This is supposed to make us all feel lovely and warm and shout Kumbaya?

If they riot after an Obama loss they are going to destroy every little bit of racial tolerance that has been built up in the last 40 years. After seeing what's been going on for the last 8 months with Obama's campaign, black liberation theology and the thugs this POS associates himself with, I had no idea that blacks had this much racist anger aimed at white people.
