I’m not sure which is more idiotic; equating slavery with national debt or equating slavery with the Holocaust.

All I want for Christmas is for black holocaust deniers to eat the crap that comes out of their mouths, Sarah Palin for example.
When the acclaimed journalist Martin Bashir was a sports reporter on "The Voice" newspaper 25 years ago, neither I nor any of his colleagues could have tipped him to be one of the most celebrated TV correspondents of his generation.
In fact, he was a bit of a tasty geezer in those days with a broad cockney accent that belies his current clipped vowels.
All that changed when a certain princess called up the Panorama programme and Martin happened to be sitting in the BBC studios in White City and picked up the phone. It’s the kind of call that every journalist dreams about but only happens in newspaper fairyland. It was the call that changed his career and turned him from being a hack grinding out a living in the media, to a superstar journalist with a million dollar a year pay packet.
No, I’m not jealous. And even if I am, I have to give respect to the man for standing up and being counted when the failed vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin compared federal taxes in the U.S. to slavery.
Over the last few weeks we have been inundated with slavery stories that seem to suggest that the kidnapping, rape and torture of our forefathers/mothers in the so-called Atlantic slave trade was akin to being subjected to cleaning up the mess in a flat in Brixton.
If I was a conspiracy theorist I would suggest that there is a concerted effort to minimise the inhumane and cowardly treatment of our foremothers/fathers to justify, or at the very least, make the enslavement of Africans more palatable in these politically correct modern times. Not just here in Europe but in the United States too.
That is where the one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store comes in. Sarah Palin knew very well what she was doing when she compared the pain of paying taxes with the pain of enslavement that the United States of America is built on.
She was telling white Americans that slavery was no big deal - no need to lose sleep over what your forefathers did.
Martin Bashir couldn’t stomach it any more. Despite the fact that he was on a million dollars a year contract, he stood up for all of us who are the descendants of enslaved people and told her that she should have a taste of her own medicine - the excrement that enslaved people were forced to eat by sadistic slave owners.
Now, what’s so wrong about that you ask? Martin was only saying what so many black journalists were thinking but didn’t have the balls to say.
You see, to some of you, we black journalists are coconuts who have sold our people down the drain. But hold on. Are we not black? Do we not have hearts? If you cut us do we not bleed? Do we not feel the injustice?
Yes, we do, and sometimes it gets so much that we stop munching on a Bounty bar and kiss goodbye to our huge salaries so that we can speak up for our people. That’s what you lot put us in these positions of power to do, isn’t it?
Behold... Actual hate speech.
He didn't, he's a Nigerian living in the UK......In an effort to make a name for himself by attacking Palin, he's conveniently ignoring the Black Holocaust currently taking place on his native continent.
We are all “financial” slaves to the government.
Racial minorities ensure that we will all become more enslaved financially with each passing day and with each passing “special privilege” they are granted.
Financial slavery = loss of freedom and liberty.
My forefathers did a lot and for which I am very proud and thankful! I do however agree that it is time to quit losing sleep over 'slavery'... in fact who cares?
I am still fretting about what the Romans did to my Sabine ancestors.
Not only was there slavery in all ancient cultures, there is still slavery today in most non-western cultures.
Piers, Bashir, and this douche in the same room? I’d be happy to provide the ventilation - from the exhaust of my car. Heck, I’d even bring the hose. I’m just a nice guy that way.
“he’s conveniently ignoring the Black he’s conveniently ignoring the Black Holocaust currently taking place on his native continent.”
I wonder what he has to say about the Holocaust of white South Africans or the fact that the US government has engaged in state sponsored racism against whites? (2008 NBP voter intimidation case dismissal)
Just another racist, white Holocaust denier. He’d fit right in with the Negro Nazi Party ruling America.
I’m not sure which is more idiotic; equating slavery with national debt or equating slavery with the Holocaust.
My fore fathers were in Sicily until the late 1800's we were the slaves not the owners of slaves.
Slavery in the USA {if you accept July 4, 1776 as it's beginning and not years later after we defeated the Brits} lasted less than 87 years, not the 400 years the current race pimps claim.
This Country sacrificed 500,000 of it's own sons to right the wrong of slavery.
Blacks {many of whom live off the backs of white tax payers} should shut the f... up.
I'm sick of hearing about how bad it was in 1810 in Alabama.
Correct and to add to what you never hear, Africans sold Africans to Europeans and Americans. One of the biggest sellers were Muslims, and then there’s the white slave labor i.e. indentured servants and many were kidnapped and sent to the Americas. Blacks and white women worked side-by-side in the fields. Black and white men who broke their servant contract were equally punished.
Facts upset the liberal thought process and diminish the stacked race card deck.
Indentured servitude was not slavery. It was neither perpetual nor hereditary. It was generally, though not always, voluntary.
In fact, it had more in common with the institution of apprenticeship than anything else. A period of some years of work in return for a start in life.
Let us not weaken our case by attempting weak arguments that are easily shot down.
Every sufficiently advanced society on earth and in history had slaves up to the 19th and 20th centuries. When it was (more or less) wiped out by white men, mostly working off Christian principles.
The evidence is that in most if not all of these societies nobody even though to ask whether slavery might be wrong. It was taken for granted as a fact of life. See, unfortunately, the New Testament, where that is exactly the way slavery is approached.
Funny how all of these idiots think they are the ONLY ONES in the entire history of the world to have been an "enslaved people".
I’m not sure which is more idiotic; equating slavery with national debt or equating slavery with the Holocaust.
I haven’t read enough of your posts to decide if you’re deranged or not, but if you believe it then go right ahead.
Hey, Dotun Adebayo, I gots bad news for you: Hussein’s ancestors are the ones who were selling black africans into slavery.
Embrace the suck, loser.
these socialist slime have their Buzzwords and Buzzterms which they hold to be sacrosanct.
reality has nothing to do with their proclamations!
