RIP.
When I read the headline, I thought Barry was leaving.
Back when there was serious anti-black racism. Today it is anti-white racism perpetrated by blacks and others plus stupid white liberals. Affirmative action to the max. Many gov’t agencies (Federal and state) across America are much more black than 13% which is the black percentage in America
Thanks for posting this vikk.....It only took a few to stir up violent hate in those turbulent times but Godly people were there...
Ted Turner?
RIP, Rev. Weaver. Thank you for standing up for what was right.
Birminham proper is very dangerous but don’t let that rain on their self righteous parade Jim
Is there any limit to freeper ignorance on race or Dixie you think?
Probably not
Yankees here just live to look down on us from lily white lutefishlandia
Silly
Most decent sized cities in Dixie are more like Johannesburg in city proper than Boise or Bismarck today...in the bad old days they were safe and black famiies 4-500% percent more whole
The stupids will accept any outcome over ancient racism or discrimination or segregation.....as long as whites are now the victims
But since so many live immersed in a white Lutheran land they don’t realize we are still largely self segregated by race....or cash
And discrimination has only been turned on us and with a vengeance
The animosity towards whites and Christians in our nation today dwarfs.....totally any hatred I’ve seen in my nearly 60 here
So this is better how?
May the angels sing him home.
I hope that this sad time in our history will continue to give us examples of people being willing to risk all to stand tall
If you are trying to sneer at those who eat LUTEFISK you ought to at least spell it correctly.
And just as an aside, you are carrying one heavy load of anger . not good for one’s soul.
I hope you have a merry Christmas and a blessed new year
Well, the furthest South I've ever lived was central Brooklyn, NY, and I lived in NY or MA for 52 years before moving to Central NH, so I guess that makes me one of those Yankees here?
Amen
Baton Rouge, NOLA, Little Rock, Memphis all have large ‘Soweto’ type areas. Homicide rates among the blacks in these towns are incredible, yet the focus of the ‘black community’ is on Treyvon martin and the Henry Glover case. having lived in the South most of my life it appears that a lot of the black population have become soulless debased brutes. The collapse of the black family has a lot to do with this along with the toxic hate spewing that the black ‘leadership class’ constantly preaches to the underclass. During the civil rights struggle blacks regularly embarrassed white Southerners by conducting themselves in a far more dignified and civilized way than their opponents. Today what is obvious is a community that behaves in the worse way possible while being unabashed trashy materialists and debauchees.
I thought this was about Tony Romo’s injury.
In my 13 years on this forum I’ve noticed very little if any of the non stop assault on White Southerners and our mixed legacy is self inflicted
It is a steady domain of 99% non southerners here who dine on the bones of our past carefully avoiding criticizing our current failures which they BTW had a determining hand in but bear none of the consequence.
Without Yankees none of this mostly failed social engineering would have been foisted on us as it continues
I will make 4 claims:
There are some Yankees I like ...a few in my family...my kids are drilled against anti Yankee talk at family dinners....two yankees are on my homepage and here in TN WE tend to get the good ones....Nashville metro is at least one third mid west Yankee now....their kids tend to pick up our ways a bit
I eat mullet ..fried or smoked....easier to spell or wear....I merit no stink fish high horse
Anger....hell yes....my culture is under attack and losing.....helluva thing to leave my 5 kids....it’ll never be the same......and then on top of that to watch so many act like its better now and take credit for it or rub salt in old wounds from before they were liklikely even born.....you think the war on Phil Robertson is from southerners?.....no one besides Morris Dees..... black or white.....even Cracker Barrel....who jumped in stupidly..no longer the domain of TN family but a collage of minority outsiders mostly non southern just pimping our schtick.... I know cause I know that company intimately
I lived up north...folks are less open and casually polite and mannered* and segregation is alive and well in yankee cities...8 years Manhattan
...northerners don’t know blacks like a mississippian like me does...or a south African would
*white trash in TN is plumbing new depths soon to become tobacco hued trash which serves neither race well
White liberals down south are rare....10% tops in Mississippi or Alabama
Up north....they are ubiquitous....at least a third of Whites....usually higher
Its culture dating back to origins of immigration and religion and you guys living in less racially diverse areas as a rule before auto industry took off and simply lacking real time experience from which to judge us
Of course that doesn’t stop folks
Noble....I cannot seeing you as a foe and apologize for being rude
Nifster....you must be young but I hope you have a merry Christmas or past due Channakuh or Kwaanza or Boxing Day etc
I wondered who would have called Weaver the most hated white man in the south, so I did a quick wiki.
I think (but am not sure) that Birmingham is in Alabama’s 7th CD, which has elected one Republican and one Whig since 1843.
In 1957, that district was represented by Carl Elliott, naturally a Democrat, who completed the hat trick of voting against the Civil Rights Acts of 1957, 1960 and 1964. He received the first ever John F. Kennedy “Profile in Courage” award.
Democrats. Sigh.
Support for Diversity is directly related to one’s distance from it.
Never fear wardaddy, Agenda 21 is going to give them (all except the present super-elite, who will be the only “elite” in the future, and the rest will be peons) a taste of what we already know. They are already being disarmed so that all but their “elite” have no protection.
I am not young. I live in the south as does my daughter and her husband. We will have a merry Christmas. And believe it or don’t, there is much that you and I agree on.
