RE: Refs who left football game were...
Per the article
Quote:On a Facebook post from Jan. 21 showing a picture of President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, Ernie Lunardelli wrote: "Yea! Thanks for f***ing up the country!! Back to the zoo!!"
Quote:Meanwhile, his son and the other official, Anthony Lunardelli, described Giants quarterback Eli Manning as having "jew luck" in a Facebook comment on Feb. 5, 2012.
And his defense?
Quote:"I was hacked," he said. "I’m not a racist. My best friend is black. He lives in the condo I own in North Brunswick. I don’t know, somebody put my picture on there, I have no idea. I don’t know where this has come from. I don’t know what to tell you. I never did anything."

Moral of the story. Those who want to make the biggest spectacle of themselves, generally shouldn't.

Racists definitely exist everywhere, it's just they're oftentimes more likely to reach positions of power in certain areas.

That I disagree with. It happens everywhere. It's just that different types take hold in different places.
I was doing a website and some database work for my state rep in 2012. Young black lawyer and democrat. When I was consulting with him, he told me that he wanted the database to pinpoint the majority white areas of the county and ignore them because "those crackers aren't gonna vote for me anyway". I did the work because I had bills, but I could never vote for him. Thank goodness he's gone.

You don't see anything racist about telling the Obamas to go back to the Zoo?

No. Chicago is a zoo.

Don't post on social media using your real name, unless you really have to.

"Racist" is overused. I see black commentary on non blacks daily, such as, Neanderthal, Wet Dog, Cave Dweller, and things a hell of a lot worse. I honestly think it is just people talking trash as opposed to thinking their race or ethnicity is superior. But if you really do think your tribe is superior so be it. It isn't illegal to think or express it.

No, of course not. Why should he? Do you get mad when you hear people calling Trump the orange ape? Yeah, probably not. If anything the OBlunders and Trump might be placed in the same cage.

Truly, you are a student of history and are certainly not blithely ignoring major reasons why these two comparisons are different.
