Fuck does he know, he only sees black people on television these days.  So stop falling for his Burmese Negro Traps, please.

Al contrario.  Bus loads of blacks are moving from South Side Chicago to eastern Iowa.

So there are a number of white ethnicities.  Interesting.  So you would call a Frenchman with black skin white?  He is undoubtedly ethnically French after all.  I suppose I should applaud your unamerican approach to race relations.

I don't know if I agree with that.  Imagine what will happen if Zimmerman isn't convicted?

I guess I see nothing happening.  What do you imagine happening?

Maybe they don't like black people?

Exactly my point.  Why is antipathy towards blacks (or as DGuller would say, "the blacks") a necessary precondition to be bothered by a prosecutor trying to railroad a conviction and Al triumphantly throwing down the racism card?

"Railroad a conviction"? :yeahright:

Nonsense.  That would mean Wops and porkchops are white, while slavs are not.

Even a cursory look will show you that slavs are white, while mediterranean peoples like Italians, Greeks, Arab or Jews are not.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
