It's not as hot as I'd like but we're going to go swimming today, maybe. I'm the only person awake right now.

I'm still pissed off
I can't believe that this joshy character(the twin of the lovable Jason) is stupid enough to suggest that racism is inherited through genetics. I mean, yeah people are indoctrinated with views and such from their family, friends, and authority but what a person ultimately practices has nothing to do with genetics. It has more to do with social conditioning and the individual's capacity for original thought.
Maybe we should gather all the southerners and start doing genetic experiments on them, measure their skulls and shit, lets rewind and go back to the hardcore bigoted eugenics days. Make sure this defective gene doesn't spread to all these good, responsible and moral northerners.

When are they going to make a law against ignorance and complicity?

"Anybody who knows their American history knows that in the mid-1800's South a lot of white girls who had sex with black boys got away scott-free while the black boys went ahead and got murdered."[inlink]joshua,7[/inlink]

To Joshua, anybody who knows his or her American history knows that lynching went on well into the 1950's long after the civil war was over. The south was devastated and lawless after the war and that's how fucked up organizations like the kkk came into existence. If you know your film history, "Birth of a Nation" lets you see through the eyes of a southern white male of that era. White women were treated as trophies without their own agency and black men were treated as moronic rapist who should be killed by mobs. Black women had the most raw deal of all, you can read Zoral Neale Hurston and Toni Morrison to feel that.
If you know your American history you know that whites and blacks spent more time with each other before slavery was ended, you know that when blacks were free to earn wages they became a threat to the poor whites, often former friends or slaves, because now the poor blacks would be taking their jobs because whoever the pay check came from would go for the cheapest labor they could get. This created jim crow laws. If you know anything about current racism toward migrant workers from Central America, you know that these same economic fears are behind the racism. "Why should an illegal immigrants be allowed here when there are plenty of people already here who are unemployed?" Do I support that view, hell no, but I'm making the point that it is there. What this has to do with a basket case woman in Gwinnett, I'm still trying to figure out.


All women who line themselves up to marry Jesus freaks are giving themselves a life sentence. They should all go to jail forever and waste more of the taxpayer's money. Not only is this woman racist against Latinos she's also racist and sexist against white women AND she age discriminates. I've selected a few quotes with links; unfortunately I was unable to find any links about Puerto Ricans. Perhaps Ajay can provide us with a source for that. [inlink]ajay,340[/inlink]

"In her 911 call, Wilbanks sounds frantic and confused, telling an operator she was kidnapped from Atlanta by a man and a woman in their 40s who were driving a blue van"



"Wilbanks gave detailed descriptions of her kidnappers, whom she described as a Hispanic man and a white woman."




"Wilbanks claimed she had been abducted by a Hispanic man and white woman who cut her hair and forced her into a light blue conversion van"



It is not likely that the story would have attracted national attention 10 years ago, said Robert Thompson of the Center for the Study of Popular Television at Syracuse University, but the news business has changed with 24-hour cable coverage and intense competition.

"This is no more a national story than Scott Peterson was an important national story," Thompson said, "but it's the kind of programming that cable news stations want now."



I love this one
"So many girls really are abducted, and she's eating up all the manpower."
