The Black Man Did It: White Mom’s Abduction Hoax Sparks Outrage, Resignation
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — It’s an old lie, claiming that The Black Man Did It.
But it was trotted out again last week when a white mother from suburban Philadelphia said two black men snatched her and her 9-year-old daughter from their SUV and abducted them in the trunk of a black Cadillac. Blacks across the country were outraged after Bonnie Sweeten was found in a luxury hotel at Disney World. Authorities quickly unraveled the hoax, but not before an Amber Alert, frantic searches and national news coverage that played into images of marauding black men. Racial boundaries are slowly dissolving in America, with President Barack Obama the most obvious example. Yet Sweeten’s story, plus the killing of a black New York City cop by a white officer days later, was a reminder that old ideas remain burned into many minds both black and white.
Sweeten’s story has provoked an outpouring of discussion among blacks, everywhere from doctor’s offices to blogs. Syndicated radio host Warren Ballentine said his listeners are “furious, and they’re disgusted. … On a scale of one to 10, it’s a 15.” “Their hope was that by Obama becoming president, the rest of America would take a look at black Americans and look at us for who we are and not what a stereotype is,” he said.

Attention New Yorkers: Never patronize Lafayette French Bakery
Unless your a neo-nazi, please boycott this store.
Neighborhood: Manhattan/West Village
26 Greenwich Ave Frnt
New York, NY 10011
(212) 242-7580
Lafayette French Bakery, a pastry shop in New York’s Greenwich Village, started selling “Drunken Negro Face” cookies on Martin Luther King Day in ‘honor’ of President Obama.
One customer told My Fox NY that store owner Ted Kefalinos said to her, “Would you like some drunken negro heads to go with your coffee? They’re in honor of our new president. He’s following in the same path of Abraham Lincoln; he will get his.”
Kefalinos spoke with Gothamist, and denied suggesting that Obama would be assassinated. However, he saw nothing wrong with the cookies themselves.
Later, he apologized to the New York Daily News.
“I’m sorry that people were offended by the cookie. We were just trying to make a large number of people happy, and instead we made a large number of people confused and angry.”
In a followup interview with My Fox NY, Kefalinos said he had been getting death threats over the cookies. Watch:
***UPDATE***
It appears that this racist pig has had so many threats from people that his phone is ringing off the hook. Instead of that arogant smirk he had in the previous clip, he now has a look of fear on his face because he knows his much beloved bakery will be out of buisness within in month. See this is why I love New Yorkers. They do not fu*k around. I love being liberal, I love NYC, and I love my white brothers and sisters who live there who always keeps it real!
Watch this sorry sack of dough attempt a real apology this time.

3 Comments‘Fighting extinction’: Boston-area shooter, rapist targeted non-whites
Looks like some whites are already starting to have some meltdowns over having a black president. How sad..here is the story…
Breaking news out of Boston:
A man accused of a horrific rape and killing spree told investigators that he was “fighting extinction” of the white race and had stockpiled 200 rounds of ammunition to “kill ‘nonwhite people’ such as African Americans, Hispanics and Jewish people,” according to a police report filed today in court.
After forcing his way into a home and raping a 22-year-old woman, the alleged assailant, Keith Luke, shot and killed the woman’s younger sister, who tried to help her. Luke, 22, then allegedly turned his fury back on the rape victim, firing his gun through a white teddy bear that she clutched in terror, police said.
Down the street, Luke allegedly opened fire and killed a homeless man who happened by pushing a shopping cart. He told police after his arrest that he had planned to go to a synagogue near his home and, “kill as many Jews as possible during bingo night,” according to the report. “Luke told us that he intended to shoot himself in the head when he was through.”
Rabbi Joshua Cohen of Temple Beth Emunah, a Conservative synagogue in the neighborhood where Luke lives, said a Massachusetts state trooper and Brockton police officer told him this morning that Luke evidently had planned to continue his rampage at the temple. The synagogue has a bingo night Wednesday starting at 6:30 p.m.
Cohen said he has never heard of Luke and believes the man had randomly decided to target the synagogue. Investigators told Cohen that Luke was acting alone.
“Through hard work and a lot of luck, the police were able to apprehend him before he was able to inflict more damage and more death and destruction,” Cohen said. “As much as we like to think we’ve moved forward in our society and culture, hate and racism still exist, and it’s really unfortunate.”
On Wednesday, Luke allegedly fired at police as he was pursued in his van across Brockton, a chase that ended in a crash at East Ashland and North Quincy streets. Sitting in the back of the squad car, he muttered unintelligibly, according to the report, about “the Zionist occupation” and about how, “I was supposed to be executed today.”
Following last summer’s church shootings in Knoxville, as well as the various acts of violence and threats following Barack Obama’s election, we may be seeing the beginnings of a dangerous trend here.
I have a book coming out in May titled The Eliminationists: How Hate Talk Radicalized the American Right which is aimed at exploring the roots of these actions. It’s looking like it will be timely indeed.
Tamron Hall nipples show through sheer dress on live broadcast
I almost fell out of my chair while watching the wrap up of the Inauguration celebrations on David Shuster’s show on MSNBC. David was apparently shell shocked while Tamron flashed on the screen and began rambling on and on as if she may have had 1 too many Long Island Ice-Teas. I first noticed how stunningly beautiful this woman was, and how great she rocks that short hair cut of hers..then I noticed something that at first I think is a shadow or something harmless on her dress, and I realized it was her NIPPLES. Yes, from almost every angle you can see her nipples right through the brown sheer gown she was wearing. This is a common mistake that women make when wearing something that is semi-sheer. They forget that under certain bright lights you can see EVERYTHING! David Shuster and his two guest, one who was a reverend seem stunned at first, then chuckled throughout the entire LIVE segment unbeknown to poor Tamron, who seemed happy, talkative and full of energy and didn’t realize that the guys where not laughing with her but at her, while also getting some cheap sexiest thrills at Tamron’s expense.

Mississippi Paper Offers Apology for Its ‘Gross Neglect’ During Civil Rights Struggle
NEW YORK In a remarkable statement on day before the birthday holiday for Martin Luther King Jr. — and two days before the inauguration of Barack Obama — the Meridian (Miss.) Star has, in an editorial, offered an apology for its past coverage of civil rights issues.
It closed: “There was a time when this newspaper – and many others across the south — acted with gross neglect by largely ignoring the unfairness of segregated schools, buses, restaurants, washrooms, theaters and other public places.
“We did it through omission, by not recording for our readers many of the most important civil rights activities that happened in our midst, including protests and sit-ins. That was wrong. We should have loudly protested segregation and the efforts to block voter registration of black East Mississippians.
“Current management understands while we can’t go back and undo some past wrongs, we can offer our sincere apology — and promise never again to neglect our responsibility to inform you, our readers, about the human rights and dignity every individual is entitled to in America — no matter their religion, their ethnic background or the color of their skin.”
In a front page story, editor Fredie Carmichael recalled, in a moving essay, that one of the three slain civil rights workers in 1964, James Chaney, hailed from Meridian. His lengthy piece recounted the episode — and its meaning today.
The full editorial follows. It is all at:

Tomorrow, as the nation celebrates the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we also pause to remember those in East Mississippi who were integral in the American civil rights movement.

Possible cure for AIDS? Or medical fluke?
Prostitution: The recession-proof career
It’s interesting to see how an area, country, or society can change its morals almost at the drop of a hat. For example, Weimar Germany, devastated by the worldwide financial collapse of the 1930′s and saddled with an insurmountable war debt, quickly became a moral wasteland. As fortunes crumbled and the future seemed hopeless, the basic rules governing social interaction evaporated and Berlin became a destination for sex tourists, not unlike today’s Bankok. Businessmen from around the world used their vastly inflated home currencies to buy the affections of “demi-castors,” or upstanding middle-class women who turned to prostitution as a means of making ends meet.
From matrons to schoolgirls, women from every walk of life and level of society demonstrated that, in the end, there is one commodity that never loses its value.While Weimar Berlin is an outrageous example of the impact that a brutalized economy can have on society, recent events have demonstrated that the evaporation of social mores is not as unlikely as one might hope. From young New York women seeking to themselves to wealthy businessmen, to people offering cheap rentals in return for sex for gas, the news over the last few months has been full of sordid tales of women deciding to turn to prostitution as a means of dealing with inflation. The definitive event in this trend was probably New York Governor Eliot Spitzer’s dalliance with Ashlee Dupree. While the news was running in circles attempting to explain Spitzer’s downfall, precious little attention was devoted to the woman who was willing to exchange her body for cash and an embarrassing moment in the spotlight. It’s interesting to speculate on the reason for this lack of coverage: was the media uninterested in the forces that motivated Spitzer’s Lolita, or was it simply convinced that it already knew them?

Gwen Ifill: Palin “Blew Me Off”
On “Meet the Press” Sunday morning, vice presidential debate moderator Gwen Ifill said Palin “more than ignored” some of her questions — she “blew me off.” She added that Palin decided to “give a stump speech” instead of a debate, and that there’s “little a moderator can do” to stop that. Watch:
source for the video & story above: The Huffington Post and msnbc.com
In my opinion: The debate was a joke, Sarah Palin is a joke. The Republican party wanted to trump the “black guy” card with the “hot white hockey mom” card, so they picked her. She is pretty and she is white..period. They saw the Obama momentum growing out of control and they had to use any method possible to stop it. Their brilliant solution? An empty headed pretty politician who is in charge of a state that has less than 1 person per square mile. There are more moose in Alaska than people, okay? Continue reading

A representative for Barker and DJ AM said she had no information the crash.
After Blink 182, Barker went on to form the rock band (+44) — pronounced “plus forty-four.” He starred in the MTV reality series “Meet the Barkers” with former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, to whom he was married at the time. The show documented the former couple’s lavish wedding and life.
Goldstein at one time was engaged to celebrity Nicole Richie
