Racists Totally Freak Out Over Muslim 'Batman of Paris'

Another day, another racist freakout over non-white superheroes. But unlike the hilariously dishonest racism we saw when the Council of Conservative Citizens called for a boycott of Marvel's Thor movie on account of a mythical Norse god's depiction as a black man, a recent round of conservative attacks on Nightrunner -- DC's Muslim Batman of Paris -- are prejudicial in a more insidious way. While the CCC put forth a laughably tenuous justification for their outrage, it was with respect to one specific character in one specific context. The argument against Nightrunner, led by conservative blogger Warner Todd Huston, is based on the bigoted belief that a Muslim superhero is by definition an exercise in deceitful political correctness, and that Muslims are natively evil.

3. well it goes against the racial superiority they believe in so much

All Heros Are White Males, preferably American

strong women role models must urk them too I bet

and of course, all real Americans are white Christian... check out their black rule or jewish issues sections on the web site for ccc

You got laugh in the article above about the point made >"Setting aside the irony of these bloggers sticking their necks out for the same white Frenchmen they doubtlessly condemned as cowards or worse when France opposed the U.S in the Iraq war"<

4. In a fair world, we would be able to round up the people at the CCC

and terrorist groups like Al Quada and make them fight it out in an open pit arena to the DEATH! If anyone was left alive, we would reward them with a swift drop into the nearest volcano.
