You read that correctly ('http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/nation/20070630-0933-votingrightslawsuit.html')

The judge said there was a pattern to Brown's efforts to keep all whites out of the county's Democratic Party, including holding party caucuses in private homes rather than public voting precincts and inviting only blacks to the meetings.

Lee said he could not find that the defendants had a specific animosity against white people.

“Brown, in fact, claims a number of whites as friends,” Lee wrote. “However, there is no doubt from the evidence presented at trial that Brown, in particular, is firmly of the view that blacks, being the majority race in Noxubee County, should hold all elected offices, to the exclusion of whites; and this view is apparently shared by his allies and associates on the NDEC, who, along with Brown, effectively control the election process in Noxubee County.”

Looks like racism is a sword that cuts both ways.

Good thing the judge can see it.

You mean....not just whites can be racist?

I would never have guessed.

A case of the majority cheating out the minority. Not like THAT'S never happened before. But I suppose that you are pointing out that, OMG, blacks can be discriminate as well! I'm sure we all know this, people are not perfect after all. There will always be scummy ones in any group of people.

It's Captain Obvious to the rescue!!
Who put up the obvious signal?
Oh yes, DK in some attempt at making another one of his absurd, biased points. To what end this time, who knows.

Oh posh, non-whites are super-human, they're immune to this so called "racism" that plagues the lower castes.

Please, we white people invented racial oppression. This is just a case of letting our creation turn on us. :D

It's almost as if he's being......:eek: racist!

Shocking.

Shocking.
That's ridiculous, I bet he has as many black friends as Mr Brown has white ones.

...and RO effortlessly destroys the latest in a long line of strawmen. No scarecrow is safe.

In other "news" from the file labeled "No shit, really?" water is wet.

I'm sure he may have one, he can introduce him as "my black friend...."

There is just no way this happened. I refuse to believe that anybody but white people can be discriminatory. White people are all that is evil in the world.














There I hope I lived up to your strange expectations RO.

As soon as people start realizing that human beings are pretty uniformly lying cheating bigoted assholes the better off we'll all be.

Being a member of any particular group isn't a character reference.

I suspect the tone of the discussion would have been much different, had the article read like this:

Lee said he could not find that the defendants had a specific animosity against black people.

which only goes to show the obvious, again, that liberals have an incredible double standard when it comes to racial issues.

Well then I guess the Japanese just had really good imaginations, eh?

They used their ninja magic to look at the British Empire in the future. Japan really never came up with anything original.

The only way the tone of discussion could be different if the statement read like that would be if we agreed with the statement. Seriously, Myrmi, do you even read any posts but your own any longer?

Jesus. It's like a cockroach infestation.

Hypothetical scenarios thought up by a biased third-party do not only not prove the point you are trying to use them to prove but they also solidify your position as biased rightwing crackpot.

And this Captain Obvious episode has been brought to you by the sponsors of:

"Evil Islamo-Liberals Who Worship Hillary Clinton from Spaaaaaaaaace..."

If the article read as I posted it, we would have a hundred and fifty posts, each of which hysterically calling for the prosecution and imprisonment of Mr. Brown. Instead, we get some non-discussion about how everyone is racist...

And why should I read anyone else's posts? They're usually a bunch of left-leaning tripe.

The reason this was posted was to show that non-white people can be racist. The reason people aren't up in a rage, is that this comes as no surprise. Same thing if it were opposite.

Now. If the topic had been about the discrimination itself and about what should be done, and whether it was right or wrong, you'd see a host of entirely different responses.

It's called 'staying on topic'.

RO's motive for posting this was, fairly blatantly, to assert that black people can be racist too. This was predictably met with a chorus of 'Well duh!".

If someone had posted this article as a critique of racism then everyone would be condemning it.

And why should I read anyone else's posts? They're usually a bunch of left-leaning tripe.

Yes, don't listen to the nasty liberals with their facts and arguments...

Jesus. It's like a cockroach infestation.

I'm amazed people don't have Myrmi on ignore.

Well I guess all us white people are losing our rights. I blame immigration and the spanish language.

Kimchi's also still hoping for people on NSG who thinks Muslims can never do wrong and that Hillary Clinton is the savior of the United States to respond to his posts for "vindication".

Being a minority does not impair one's ability to be a bigoted, racist prick.

Wait... some people in this world are racist, and allow that to influence their politics?

I dub thee...

Seriously. Though, I suppose what his eventual point would be is "See? The brown people are racist too! That means us Aryans should be allowed to be racist!"

If the article read as I posted it, we would have a hundred and fifty posts, each of which hysterically calling for the prosecution and imprisonment of Mr. Brown.
You do realize for your point be valid that people would have to be arguing against the prosecution and imprisonment of Brown don't you?

Or are you asserting we wouldn't be doing the exact same thing if he was white? Do you have an evidence to back up your asinine assertion? I'm pretty sure we would be going on the same "non-discussion" tangent because it is bloody obvious people are racist.

Of course for Myrmidonisia's hypothetical situation to exist, DK would have had to post the story but why would he post a story about a white racist being convicted? It provides no loaded intonation for Myrmi there to capitalize on and use to call liberals racists. Nice try there, slick.

Sorry, your suspicions that liberals have a double standard don't show that liberals have a double standard.

Don't you know? Hypothetical situations create by themselves real situations which can be used to villainize people you disagree with. Duhhhhh.

You mean....not just whites can be racist?Wouldn't it be racist to think thusly?

Well religious at the very least.

You can't hypothetically win the lottery, I already hypothetically won it and used my winning to hypothetically by a new car.

We're obviously winning different lotteries.


At least I hope so, cos I was counting on a roll over so I could build a hypothetical mansion with my hypothetical winnings.

Can't we all just... Get along.:fluffle:
