Micheal Ray Racist is back!!!

It depends on what market it is in -- to many of the real small minor league towns, the CBA.

And that is still irrelevant.

 

Did you choose to be straight?

 

Oh, and you know he changed his mind, not because he saw the error in his ways, not because he realized the way he was brought and where he was brought up was not necessarily the way to be -- no it was because it was costing him political capital and hurting him at the collection plate. And you know this because, well, you just do.......

I'll say it again -- if Jerry Falwell was a racist he sure had a funny way of showing it because no self-respecting Klansman would raise and donate so much money and dump so many funds into charities and projects aimed at helping poor people in inner cities as well as many poor and under developed countries in Africa and around the world.

But if makes you feel better to call a guy a racist based on remarks he made -- which I am sure you don't understand the context with which they were made -- in the 1960's when the world was a completely different place, feel free. His actions say something completly different.

 

Yes

 

Again -- he lumped homosexuals with a whole lot of other sins and sinners in his remarks and if you look at the entire context of what he was saying he was speaking of God's wrath being cast on a Christian country that has lost its soul. That is hardly bigotry.

Was it a dumb thing to say? Probably, particularly at the time he said it, but if you think Jerry Falwell is the only minister -- white or black -- who was preaching that America better get on its knees in the wake of that 9/11 stuff then you are smoking something good and you have no clue of which you speak.

 

No, you are straight.

 

But, once again -- rather than explain the hypocrisy and the lack of outrage over a black guy who is a public figure making racist remarks --- much like every time the Rev. Al or Jesse Keep Hope Alive makes a racist and/or antisemitic remark -- and the quickly getting forgiven and rehired into a very public job, this thread has turned into a rehashing of the homosexuality debate as well as what a bigot Jerry Falwell was.

Again, that's how lefties never have to be held accountable in any of these kinds of issues -- they simply always try to frame the debate and the discussion on all things PC and whenever their hypocrisy is pointed out they start pointing fingers.

 

Yes but not in the same way or for the same reasons that leading Libertarians, like Harry Browne, who was crucified for his post 9/11 remarks.

He blamed it on all of the sinning we're doing, Browne blamed it on our foreign policy and the fact that we've managed to turn every fanatic and radical on the planet against us by getting involved in their conflicts.
