black monday
To paraphrase a Fats Domino song, "Oh how I hate black monday, it's the lousiest day of the year....." Rather ironic since Fats has a rather dark suntan.

It hurts you and anyone naive enough to think like you, that's MHO, and no hard feelings intended.
How is it going to hurt me? Black folks are smart for having a Black History month in my opinion--smarter than a lot of white folks. They've decided that they won't allow the mistakes of history to be made again. There's an ugly part of American history that we shouldn't forget. I would think that Constitutionally-minded people like the ones here on Gunbroker would understand that.0 -
"I have a dream" myself.
I dream of a day when my taxes are cut in half because I no longer have to support 3rd and 4th generation welfare families. When I no longer have to pay the costs of fighting and prosecuting black crime. When I no longer have to listen to the feeble excuses of why blacks can't get ahead. The same excuses I've heard for 50 years.
I have a DREAM today, brothers and sisters!0 -

It hurts you, just like it has hurt all of us. The Civil Rights Movement is the biggest shakedown in U.S. History aside from Lincoln's War, and MLK, Jr., was the trojan horse. Everything about the Civil Rights Movement is costing us dearly. From money with slave reparation extortion, to the continued crippling of our children's minds. Everything that is in this thread that you think is negative is the truth of the matter. My advice would be for you to ask yourself a lot of questions, and seek the truth of the matter. Ask yourself why there is NOT ONE DAY "named" after a great American white person for our nation to celebrate! This alone should be good for starters.0 -

Get Real! King was a dishonest, communist-sympathizing, rabble-rousing, adulterous, woman-beating, opportunist. I see no difference between him, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, or the recently departed James Brown.
This pretty much sums it up. He's the original civil rights shakedown artist, and the one Jackson, Farrakhan, Sharpton, etc. learned the trade from, developed it, and carried it to new heights.
There have been blacks deserving of this honor, but King is a misguided choice, and due to his media exposure and his murder, the blacks have pressed him into saintly "martyr" service, an undesrved position to be sure. Once again they make the wrong choice, further exposing their ill judgement. The guy who responded with quick thinking and courage in the subway seizure incident would be a far more deserving black man than King, and he's just one of many.0 -
As always, Dak, a very good post. 0 -
well, the Klavern is very active tonight, I see.
On a lighter "note"
Lowrider,
The main difference between MLK, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and James Brown was that James Brown BY FAR was the best singer of the bunch[:)]0 -
You're only saying that because you've never heard Louis Farrakhan do his Otis Redding medley. [:D] 0 -
This thread is so pathetic. God forbid that ONE African American have a holiday. So you don't like him and what he stood for or what he did? Tough. I'm sure that millions of native americans weren't consulted for their advice about Columbus Day. I doubt that they liked him or what he stood for or what he did? No icon is perfect. Whether MLK was perfect is in many ways irrelevant. This we know...He did push to the forefront an obvious injustice that many did not want to admit or ever see change.
You claim that all those third and fourth generation minorities on welfare are eating up your tax money! Well, maybe there is hope for the next generation. What are you doing to help the situation? Let me give you a hint--wasting your time "educating" others about the faults of MLK on this forum is really not helping anybody or changing anything. Every year it's the same blah, blah, blah. MLK Day is here to stay. Let those who look up to him celebrate. Quit complaining and do something to make things better for the next generation.0 -
You're black, huh? [:D] 0 -
Well said BIGRIDE203.
Danged embarassing is what it is.0 -
Quote from the Atlanta Mayor today: " Mayor Shirley Franklin admonished congregants at the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church not to pay tribute to King's dream on his birthday, observed as a national holiday Monday, and then contradict it the next.
"Millions can't find jobs, have no health insurance and struggle to make ends meet, working minimum wage jobs. What's going on?" she said, repeating a refrain from soul singer Marvin Gaye.
"Thousands of black and Latino students drop out of high school believing education will not matter and statistics say it doesn't because they can't find jobs ... What's going on?" Notice the last paragraph. I WONDER WHO TAUGHT THEM SUCH A LIE. It wasnt "Whitey".
Just a bit more education would make them better employable possibly
along with a change in attitude.
It was their "brothers" who told them bull.0 -
They are their own worst enemy. 0 -
Read the thread and see where you stand with the majority of the folks here on this issue. It's impossible to make a legitimite case for MLK Day, Black History Month, and the DIVERSITY/DISUNITY or SLAVE REPARATION extrotion programs anymore. Intelligent folks see right through their scam nowadays. The Secular-Progressives in both major parties, along with every other ANTI-AMERICAN faction, to include the ACLU play the NAACP Civil Rights Movement like a fiddle...only truly pathetic souls would buy off on such rhetoric as they and the NAACP would have you believe.
The Civil RIghts Movement makes its backers big bucks...like the big scam it is, it is also the home of America's most dangerous and militant racists in our country.0 -
"only truly pathetic souls would buy off on such rhetoric."
Yours included.0 -
When we gonna have a Rosie day for all the fags?
When we gonna have a Senator Byrd day for the KKK?
When we gonna have a NAMBLA day for the perverts.
If we put them into January we could get a few more days off to recover from Christmas.
Me.....I just ignore the whole mess. Blacks in America are the root cause of the problems faced by Blacks in America. Just look at Africa and find me a Black leader worth his salt.0 -
I've amended mine to be more specific. I don't intend my remarks to change the lost,only to help those who can sense the injustice of the whole NAACP Civil Rights Movement scam!

Judging from the tone of this thread, any day now...0 -
True to hand-wringer form, let any white criticize any non-white and they're immediately branded a "racist." 0 -
Not to pick a fight bpost...but have you looked at the good ol' USA and found any political leaders worth their salt...regardless of race? Lack of leadership with character transcends racial and cultural boundaries. And remember...we have a say in who gets elected to leadership.
I would say that quibbling over who gets a day off on January 15th is rather like arguing over where to place the deck chairs on the Titanic.0 -

The only hand-wringing I see is whining about MLK day.
Kinda calling the kettle "black."0 -
Ever wonder what would motivate a guy to complain about getting another holiday off work? 0 -
Hey, if it meant an extra day off, I think we should have a national lawyers day. If lawyers can't get this done then who can? Come on mateo...git'r'done. 0 -

The whiners on this subject appear to be objecting to those of us who are telling the truth of the matter about the criminally insane lowlife that suck the blood from hard working American citizens.0 -
It's not an "extra" day off. We had to give up Presidents' Day to get it. 0 -
Not us, they just added it on. I try to do a little company work every MLK day as a small form of protest. 0 -
How about Jackie Robinson Day? At least he could play baseball! 0 -
He would be a step up from MLK. 0 -
Kimi,
Did we just agree about something!
I'll just take my meds and go to bed now.0 -
