Things got bumpy aboard an American Airlines flight this week as two female passengers exchanged blows after one of the women used a racial slur to refer to a Black flight crew member. It’s unclear what sparked the altercation, but the video begins just as a Black woman passenger excoriates her white seatmate for using the N-word. A clip of the incident was posted Sunday by Facebook user Dre Justice and has since racked up more than 10,000 views online. “You’re gonna sit here and call him a ‘(expletive) (slur)’ while you’re sitting beside an African-American woman?” the passenger asks...

Racial slurs were written on the dormitory message boards of five black cadet candidates at the Air Force Academy Preparatory School earlier this week. Lt. Col. Allen Herritage, director of public affairs for the academy, said the slurs were discovered Monday. One cadet candidate’s mother posted a photo on her Facebook page Wednesday that shows the words “go home n*****r” written on the white board outside her son’s room. “This is why I'm so hurt!” the mother said in her post, which was at first public but then taken offline Thursday. “These young people are supposed to bond and protect...

... after he calls for Trump's impeachment (headline continued) During a town hall meeting on Saturday, Congressman Al Green played recordings of threatening voicemail messages left for him after he demanded the impeachment of President Donald Trump on the House floor earlier this week. "You'll be hanging from a tree," one caller said. The calls use graphic racial slurs, some calling Green the n-word. "You ain't going to impeach anybody. Try it and we will lynch all of you," said a caller. The Houston Democrat was the first member of Congress to call for Trump's impeachment from the House floor...

... in wake of Mahopac basketball incident A state senator says he wants more accountability from Mount Vernon after a fight erupted at a high school basketball game between Mount Vernon and Mahopac. Eight students from Mahopac High School have been suspended for allegedly tweeting racist slurs about Mount Vernon after the fight. State Sen. Greg Ball (R-40th District) says Mount Vernon needs to show more accountability as their fans were "toxic and destructive" during the game. "They need to hold these bad actors who are not representative of the larger group accountable, just like Mahopac has," says Ball. Mount...

I love how the words just casually roll off his tongue, as if he had been saying them all his life. Which he has. But there is no such thing as black racism, don't you know? Using a racial epithet to describe one's political opponents is accepted behavior. Or at least it must be because the only people saying anything about it are those on the right. But even at 83, dressed in a blue bow tie and crisp gray suit, Rangel is relentless toward those who he feels are slowing the forces of progress. House Republicans? Have done more...

How far will Democrats go to ensure that their revolution against American liberty succeeds? As for me, I put nothing past them now. Will Collier has just explained in exacting detail the most probable explanation for how Nancy Pelosi (along with Axelrod and Emanuel) could have staged their “confrontation” with Tea Partiers outside the capitol on March 20. Claims that the N-word and spit were employed as weapons by Tea Partiers have yet to be corroborated by a single witness or video recording. This in spite of Andrew Breitbart’s bold offer of a $10,000 reward – since upped to $100,000...

I was home sick yesterday, so I got to see some of Fox’s daytime coverage. Cavuto had some Tea Party folks on who condemned attacks on others, and then played some of the death threats that they have received. This is nothing new; the left has been doing this sort of thing for years. It has NEVER been fully covered by the MSM. For my next thoughts, let me say that this is 100% conjecture on my part. With disclaimer done, I believe that these attacks on the Democrats could very well have been done by folks on their side....

Friend of black Gonzaga student admits staging harassment to gain attention SPOKANE, Wash. -- A Gonzaga university student has admitted writing a racial epithet on a black student's door and is being investigated in a string of other harassing incidents, Spokane police said. Police issued a summons late Tuesday for 27-year-old Althea Logwood to appear in court for filing a false report. The incidents had been investigated as hate crimes. Logwood was a classmate and close friend of the mixed-race couple who were victims last month of harassing calls, car vandalism and scrawled racial slurs. Police Chief Roger Bragdon said...

Shaq O'Neal may be one of the most well liked figures in the National Basketball Association, but his recent verbal attacks on Houston Rockets 7 foot 6 inch big man Yao Ming from China are starting to raise troubling questions-is Shaq indeed racist?Some feel Shaq's comments in his escalating war of words with Yao have crossed the line from trash talk to racial slurs.Asian Week columnist Irwin Tang recently 'called out' O' Neal in public for several racially derogatory comments thrown in Yao's direction. Tell Yao Ming, 'ching-chong-yang-wah-ah-soh,' O Neal said to a reporter recently in a mock Chinese accent.When...

When you get to this mb, scroll down to and click on "Trent Lott/Strom Thurmond", then scroll down to the first "David Phipps" post. [QUOTE]I think [Lott] was talking about the way that Truman just handed Eastern Europe, China, and Korea to the Communists. He wouldn't stand up to Stalin at the end of WWII, even though we had the manpower and the machinery to bury the USSR alive right then and there (not to mention the bomb when the Russians still didn't have it), and he wouldn't give the Chinese nationalists the help that they absolutley begged us for...
