Wow this Confederate flag thing all of a sudden is moving really fast. South Carolina takes down its flag. Retail corporations ban the manufacturing and sale of it. Even Warner Bros. now says the Dukes of Hazzard car, General Lee will not feature the flag anymore!
(General Lee is not the General Lee without the flag but i'll leave that argument for another day)
So in the words of Mr. Joker "What happened? Did your balls drop off?"
All these years of picking up your shotgun and standing on the soapbox yelling how its a symbol of southern pride and whatever. Pride in what? Pride in rebelling against your country and government and then fighting and killing your own countrymen?
I veer off of my point.
That point being why after all these years everyone suddenly has realized that you shouldn't be flying the flag that although it wasn't the official Confederate States flag, it did represent a division of the southern army during their attempt to fight their own government over an obviously uncivilized practice.
But lets take this further. Lets take this in the direction of who the fuck gives a shit about some fucking flag some southerners fly? This flag comes up as a part of the racism conversation but does a flag make you a racist? Does not flying it automatically mean you're not? Do you think that only white southerners that fly this flag are racist in this country?
And what about the idea that on the heels of so much controversy and injustice involving the African American community, the removal of this in fact insignificant flag is a completely empty victory in the battle against the true enemy...... racism.
People seem to be eating this shit up not realizing that its only a consolation prize. An appeasement. A peace pipe filled with all the good, sweet, apologetic bull shit you want to hear that will convince you to stop protesting, and arguing and fussing and fighting and so on.
You give a crying baby a pacifier to shut him up. This "rebel flag" is the pacifier to all of us who would see racism finally done away with.
Are we really so naive to think that a fucking flag is needed when some ignorant fool begins to teach his kids to hate any one in a darker skin tone than them?
So naive to think that the removal of this flag is going to stop or even curb racism in the south or any other part of this country?
Or even so naive to think that we've defeated this big symbol and supporter of oppression and racism? Flags don't support racism. Racism supports racism. Racist people support racism. And not all of them wave a fucking flag to tell you so.
We need to wake up folks. This flag is NOTHING. It means NOTHING. Thats why everyone is so quick to just give it up now. All we've done is actually create another symbol of hate. Symbols like the swastika flag or a white hood or a burning cross.
Remember that somethings are not truly evil until you label it as such. And now we have. Now the next ignorant, hateful asshole that needs some "symbol" of his pain and suffering and hate will have yet another ready to wear token. This flag is hated and so must be as evil as I am.
Nice job America.

My name is Rachel and i'm [fill in the blank].
Why doesn't this woman realize that its not even about her identifying with African Americans or as such but its about posing and passing herself off as and lying about who you are?
She claims its more complicated than just answering the question. No stupid, it isn't. Did you lie and tell people you are black? Simple.
I love Bollywood movies and Indian food. And even if I had married an Indian woman and had little Puerto Rican/Indian kids and lived in Bombay that still doesn't fucking make me all of a sudden, Indian!
You fucking lied. And you can say well people misidentified me as mixed or black. That is even worse because you KNEW that people had your race mistaken and you STILL kept it up!
Its fantastic that your boys love their mom no matter what race you are but what are you teaching them about being liars?
This is absolutely not about black and white for me, its about you being a liar.
And to the NAACP and to every and any other company, agency, coalition, organization etc etc down to the fucking local social bridge club that does or may represent a specific race, nationality or interest..... The most qualified person to lead you is the most qualified person to lead you. While it may help in some cases to have one of your own, in some cases it might be a hindrance. Can't fight prejudice with prejudice.
And while im here and have your attention. There's a very important election on the horizon. Please educate yourselves on who you will and will not be giving your votes to and why. Don't take this shit sitting down and don't sit down without taking action.

First one of 2015
I'd like to be able to say holy shit, i just realized i haven't blogged in 2015! but that's a fucking lie. I know damn well i haven't written shit for a while.
So here I am.
You know the older i get the more understand the cycles of life. Old people aren't really mean as most younger folk would believe. We just don't give a fuck about your young ass ignorant bullshit anymore and refuse to have you waste the precious time we have left with some nonsense that should be easily remedied. (shrug) What? It's true.
Oh as an FYI I think most of my friends know that while I'm sitting in front of a computer all day at work I am signed on to Facebook. But once i get home and on the weekends i rarely, barely even look at FB. So i apologize if i miss any one's birthday or posts and such, private messages included. Just throwing that out there.
While I'm on the subject I'd like to remind everyone out there that there is a lot of shit that you miss while you have your face in your phone trying to keep up with everything that's happening in other people's lives. UNPLUG!
And while I'm being so negative....... Wait for it...... Wait for it.......
I'm now paying even more for shit service that seems to get shittier.
Oh yea and to all you "love lock" shit heads, go take that shit back to France or where ever the fuck that shit started. You're damaging the bridge infrastructure assholes. Read the damn reports. Go buy a fucking ring and exchange THAT! Keep your shit off our bridges.
To every single person in New York. This is YOUR city! We all have a responsibility to keep this city clean, and safe and GREAT! Use the fucking thousands of garbage cans available on the street. Be proactive and reactive when people are doing shit they shouldn't be doing, especially people you know. The only way to stop all the robberies and assaults and shootings and all the petty fucking wanna be gangster little shits of this city is for the city to both strike back and to be the voice that talks them out of it in the first place.
Teens robbing senior citizens and young girls! What the fuck? No one in that group has the moral fiber to say nah man, that's not right??? You fucking cowards.
That reminds also, NYC has all these citibike locations why don't they put up a couple of porta pottys as well?? Do you know how difficult it is to find a toilet or a place that will let you use theirs?
For the past week or two my FB feed has been flooded with speculation articles about the NFL draft. Let me try to word this as best I can. Please stop. I don't give a flying fuck. I will still support my team and hate every other no matter who they draft.
Let us continue.
Please stop... all the "what you may have missed" articles
"Easter eggs in this episode" articles
"3 page breakdown and analysis on the new fcking 15 SECOND trailer" articles
"batman vs superman" articles.
The list goes on but ill stop there. Please stop. I'm really fcking tired of endlessly scrolling through that all shit.
And what is going on in this country? At every turn you hear about a murder or a robbery, a cop being shot, a cop shooting an innocent, an American man dying in police custody and it goes on and on. such hate and violence and prejudice and intolerance. Even politicians showing their racial bias and less than honorable opinions and feelings. This country is a fucking mess right now. And through it all our United States government remains still and silent and unresponsive.
Now im not some Obama basher by any means, i think mother fuckers only see what they want to see when it comes to him but i'm talking about the government as a whole.
The UNITED fucking STATES government.
I guess we have forgotten that the federal government is the big daddy of them all and is supposed to keep the kids in check. When the Confederate seven gave big daddy the finger, big daddy stepped up and slapped the shit out of them. Why has big daddy forgotten his role? in so many cases its undeniably evident that the state has lost control of its ass and is shitting all over the place. Why does big daddy not step in and fcking regulate?!
“We need a revolution every 200 years, because all governments become stale and corrupt after 200 years.” – Ben Franklin
If this is the necessary course of getting shit back on track, we are overdue.
I want to get this up today so ill stop there. And i'll send a shout to my buddy Andrew Besser who loves when I go into my rants.
