How about censoring, or even banning, “The Golden Girls” because of the character Blanche Devereaux who was a dyed in the wool Southerner? I recall even a few references to “Gone With the Wind” made in that show and this does not even begin to mention that Rue McClanahan (RIP) was very much a Hollywood liberal, along with Bea Arthur and Betty White.

I can just see any TV program or movie involving the South (Mama’s Family, In the Heat of the Night) being scrutinized like it was made in the same vein as “The Birth of a Nation”.

I just remembered, Woodrow Wilson and other Democrats were big fans of “The Birth of a Nation” back in it’s day playing in the movie theatres.

I wonder if this number between Dinah Shore and Mahalia Jackson (circa 1959-60) has too many Southern bigot connotations:

I have said this for months.

We should BAN ANYONE who attempts or wants to BAN ANYTHING.

Just when you think the left wing couldn’t get any sicker than they are, they dip to a new low.

Ban this book:

“It warn’t the grounding—that didn’t keep us back but a little. We blowed out a cylinder-head.”

“Good gracious! anybody hurt?”

“No ma’am. Killed a nigger.”

“Well, it’s lucky; because sometimes people do get hurt."

But we won't have to. Because anybody too stupid to understand what Mark Twain is trying to illustrate with that exchange is probably too stupid to read.

Ban GWTW and any works done by Southern sympathizers? Sure, let's ban every non p.c. work. Including I guess all works by leftists who were either admitted commies or fellow travelers. That would eliminate a very large pct. of literature, film, and other works considered part of American history. Dalton Trumbo was a commie who wrote many Hollywood screenplays. Should we ban "Spartacus" because Trumbo was a commie?

During the thirties and forties there were many Hollywood films with a decidedly sympathetic view of communism. Should we ban those?

I actually don't believe in banning them even though I beieve communism is the greatest evil ever created by man. And for the record as far as GWTW, I liked the book but not the movie. Couldn't stay awake through the latter.

Brother Dave Gardner has a few things to say about the south. Starts with singing then he begins at about .40. This is really funny stuff.

Mass hysteria and madness are spreading around the country. Without using their reasoning powers, they jump on the bandwagon and follow the insane crowd.

They lack the ability to examine their actions and ask if they are acting like fools.

Get rid of everything in existence...the DIMocRAT way. After all, they love abortion, murdering Veterans through neglect, withholding medical procedures from the elderly and so forth.

If recognizing the realities of life back in the 1800s is racism so severe that it must be censored, then every school history book needs to be erased. Every college course in the history department must be banned.
