Found this in the comment section on FreeRepublic under a post titled "DiD McKinneys Afro Confuse Police?" (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1608753/posts)



What a bunch of complete fucking idiots.

3. They are terribly racist over there.
My husband learned a new phrase over there last night--anchor baby.

Neither of us had ever heard it before, but once he figured out what it meant, re realized that he *was* an anchor baby! :) We laughed about that one all night. The asshats.

6. It's the American-born child...
...of an illegal immigrant. The idea is that, because the baby is a citizen, it's like an anchor to tether the parent to US residence--something like that. I just learned it today--I heard it on TV, one of the cable news stations but I don't remember which. I'd say it has kind of an ugly implication, namely that illegal immigrants might choose to have kids solely for that reason. I have a feeling we're going to be hearing a lot more of it though--it's catchy in that horrible GOP-meme way.

9. Yeah. I had never heard it before either.
And that is interesting because I live in California and am marginally part of the Latino culture. That makes me wonder. :shrug:

I also agree with you about the implications being ugly. Especially considering that I've never known of that to be the case.

8. An anchor baby
is a baby that was born in this country to an undocumented worker. Their opinion being that such births are meant to give the parents legal residence.

Are you sorry that you asked? ;)

4. Most of 'em are saying prayers for their favorite criminal congressman
"Oh Lord, please bless this great American patriot".......blah, blah, blah.

They think he's a hero, regardless of all his dastardly deeds.

At least that's what I glean from DU'ers who were courageous enough to visit the dark site. I don't go there cuz the site design sucks so bad. I understand that the site owner gets thousands from the dumb-ass chimp-lickers during his fund drives and then spends like the normal 40 bucks a month or whatever for web hosting and pockets the rest. It sure shows in the suckiness of the ancient site design and navigation and everything.

Heh!:rofl:

10. No kidding!
I can never find anything over there.

And you'd think that he'd at least spring for spell check.

11. Racist and Insulting Picture
First, Ms. McKinney does NOT have an "afro". Afro hair-dos do not have a part in the side or front. (I should know. I am Black.)
She should have not made the situation worse by hitting the policeman, just because he tapped her shoulder. By hitting him, she made the situation escalate.
As for the others...Belafonte, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton....IF I EVER have any trouble, I do NOT want any of them coming to my "rescue". They do NOT speak for all Black people. My relatives feel the same way.
People better shape up. They have NO IDEA what is in store for them in the future. Racial prejudice will be a thing of the PAST in a matter of a few years. Through genetic engineering, people will be able to CHOOSE what race they want to be. I have been both Black and White in the same lifetime through genetic engineering! (Not a skin disease; NOT a sun tan; NOT cosmetic surgery)I did not choose. It was DONE TO ME.

12. i agree

And with Latino people of all kinds marrying all different groups of Americans, we're looking at future of complete racial continuum.

Btw, welcome to DU!

13. We do not know the full story yet on Cynthia McKinney.
Btw, were you picked up by alien lizards? Reptoids? Dracos? Did THEY give you a pod? Are you still human?

Welcome to DU! :hi:
