More insanity and pandering to the left.
« on: August 27, 2018, 09:14:39 PM »
NASCAR driver Conor Daly loses his sponsorship from Lilly Diabetes because it was discovered that his father said the "n-word"... before Conor was even born. His father was also fired as a racing analyst.

"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

I abandoned NASCAR over 10 years ago.

Even back then the infiltration of progressive nonsense was well along.



For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Didn't everyone use the "N-word" 50 years ago?  I'm pretty sure I did occasionally, but not often and I meant no malice with it.  It probably was dismissive more than anything.  A N-knocker was a trickster who rang the doorbell and ran away.  A N-toe was a Brazil nut.  N-rigged is now jerry-rigged.  Etc, etc.

(I'm a turrible turrible racist, ain't I?  :'( )

All POC and white allies must immediately leave America - someone here said the n-word once!

I remember listening to a comedian who specialized in presidential satire doing something on getting LBJ to pronounce "Negro" right.  And of course LBJ kept saying "ni-gra" with a Texas regional accent.

(For you youngsters, LBJ was Lyndon Johnson, the POTUS between Kennedy and Nixon.)

So . . . some words are SO bad that the CHILDREN of the person who said them must be punished, even if the parent said them before the kid was born . . .

Great.

Let's find some movies or audio recordings the parents of every Democrat in office - maybe we can do something with that.  >:D

Growing up in Chicago, I heard that term used by a Chicago police officer to describe a length of flexible conduit with a cap on the end, filled with lead shot.
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

I knew a black guy that kept a small club in his barracks room. He called it his "ni**a-be-cool stick."

I've since heard the term used for a baseball bat; especially the little short novelty bats.  That's not how I used it.  Actually, mostly it was my great aunts who said "*let's not go there*".  (not sure I ever heard my grandparents say it, but I might not have noticed)  My mom said "*let's not go there*-toes" for Brazil nuts, mostly when she was around my aunts, but that's about it.  I used the word even less than she did when I was young and I don't use it at all now.  

It's a generational thing and it's moving in the right direction, why are the SJW's trying to bring it back?

Also true of racism in the United States. It was fading away, so they had to resuscitate it.
