Doc, you did refer to him as "confused" did you not? Essentially you don't have to say that in verbatim.

Okay, let me set some things straight here.
1)What Bundy said was racist. Nor do I condone it. I have never been a racist in my life. In fact, I agreed with Rand Paul when he first condemned him.
2)To people who think I advocate slavery, I will never in my life condone the act of slavery. My grandmother's family gave room and board to black sharecroppers in the 1930's and 40's, they understood that all black men and women were just as human as they were. Slavery itself turns my stomach. But to me, the slavery of one era would have been preferable to the slavery of government subsidies. Even for me.
Now to address his statement.
But even still there is some validity to at least one part of Bundy's statement. A great deal of African Americans are are being subsidized by their government. They may or may not be working when they get these subsidies. The point here being is that they are being held back.
Working or no, it's still slavery. When you are working and barely making a living, coupling it with a subsidy, you are essentially a slave to your government. There may be no need to progress any further. When you're not working, and receiving a subsidy, you are enslaving yourself to government. Either way, they are being held down by the the weight of their own dependence.
Of course, Bundy's statement was bigoted and racist. It was way out of line, especially the "picking cotton" reference. But what people (namely the left) don't remember, or care to remember, is that Harry Reid made similar comments about Obama, and was forced to apologize. He referred to Obama in 2008 as a "light skinned African American" with "no Negro dialect." So, why all the outrage now? All I see here is one enormous double standard.
Once again. I will never condone slavery, whether it from the days of old, or from this government. I am proud that I am able to see people equally, instead of just 'black', 'white', 'gay' or 'straight.' I am proud of the fact that our country was able to see past such barbarous thinking, to understand that all men were in fact created equal.
Doc, you did refer to him as "confused" did you not? Essentially you don't have to say that in verbatim.
As you know, the left is only interested in utilizing the race card - the only blacks they treat with respect are those who share their views. Those who don't are viciously attacked!Not if they ain't " Real Niggas "As I watched the discussion Randall had with Doc, I gleaned that the opinion of a black man no longer means as much to a liberal, when it comes from the other end of the spectrum. Dare I say it, whoever thinks such a thing is a hypocrite. I recall Doc telling me that Pheonixops as a black man knew whether slavery is preferable to government subsidy or not, but apparently, Randall didn't. Isn't that racist? To imply that one black man's opinion is worth more than another's?
When liberals get a contradictory opinion on the subject from another black man, a Republican conservative black man, his opinion no longer holds any weight. This is the inherent flaw of the liberal argument about racism. One black man's opinion should hold just as much weight as the other.![]()

Yes. He responded to a post of mine with a page long rant accusing me of countless ridiculous things that had nothing to do with anything that I had posted.
I responded, I think rather politely, that he might be confused as to what I had been saying.
Would you be happier as a slave?
And you just did exactly what Bundy did.
So if what he said makes him a racist then what you said makes YOU a racist, too.
Asshole.
But it goes much deeper than that. He is intimating that the "democrats" have "helped" black people - which is absolutely untrue. They have made perpetual slaves of blacks from day one. Why, us po old darkies are shire nuff glad foe the help, Massa! Yes Suh! Us folk will jus sit by and wait on dat good ol welfare check! yes Suh!
Why yes sir! Why we be proud to vote democrat!! Jess keep that check comin Massa!
Now, democrats may classify that as "freedom" - I call it holding someone down by the neck, From one generation to the next. Thanks LBJ.

Ok, I understand now. Bundy is not an obnoxious freeloading hypocritical racist. He is an "Old Man".
Well, so am I, so I am looking forward to getting away with stealing from the public and advocating slavery for anyone with too much pigment in his skin .... I assume that I have your support.
WOO_HOO!
Then why did he deny that he said anything about "picking cotton" on Alice Jones today, accusing the NY Times of injecting those words to make him look like a racist???? Obviously even Bundy thought what he said was racist and felt he had to deny he said it!!!CaféAuLait;8990662 said:I believe he believed he was actually advocating for Blacks and Hispanics.
Was Bundy "Shirley Sherroded"?
Bundy's entire 'speech'...
…” and so what I’ve testified to ya’, I was in the WATTS riot, I seen the beginning fire and I seen the last fire. What I seen is civil disturbance. People are not happy, people is thinking they did not have their freedom; they didn’t have these things, and they didn’t have them.
We’ve progressed quite a bit from that day until now, and sure don’t want to go back; we sure don’t want the colored people to go back to that point; we sure don’t want the Mexican people to go back to that point; and we can make a difference right now by taking care of some of these bureaucracies, and do it in a peaceful way.
Let me tell.. talk to you about the Mexicans, and these are just things I know about the negroes. I want to tell you one more thing I know about the negro.
When I go, went, go to Las Vegas, North Las Vegas; and I would see these little government houses, and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids…. and there was always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch. They didn’t have nothing to do. They didn’t have nothing for the kids to do. They didn’t have nothing for the young girls to do.
And because they were basically on government subsidy – so now what do they do? They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never, they never learned how to pick cotton. And I’ve often wondered are they were better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things? Or are they better off under government subsidy?
You know they didn’t get more freedom, uh they got less freedom – they got less family life, and their happiness -you could see it in their faces- they were not happy sitting on that concrete sidewalk. Down there they was probably growing their turnips – so that’s all government, that’s not freedom.
Now, let me talk about the Spanish people. You know I understand that they come over here against our constitution and cross our borders. But they’re here and they’re people – and I’ve worked side-by-side a lot of them.
Don’t tell me they don’t work, and don’t tell me they don’t pay taxes. And don’t tell me they don’t have better family structure than most of us white people. When you see those Mexican families, they’re together, they picnic together, they’re spending their time together, and I’ll tell you in my way of thinking they’re awful nice people.
And we need to have those people join us and be with us…. not, not come to our party.
I think he used very poor choice of words, If anyone reads all the comments in context, I don't believe he meant to come off they way he did.
Was he trying to advocate in a very poor manner given the scope of his words? Or was he really being a blatant racist?
Then why did he deny that he said anything about "picking cotton" on Alice Jones today, accusing the NY Times of injecting those words to make him look like a racist????

So then you agree with Bundy that the "family life" of a slave was better and they were happier back then. Just thing of how wonderful it was to have the master sell the black family's children, who were just property after all, and how great it was to know the master was fucking your wife and daughter. How could a slave's "family life" be any better than that????CaféAuLait;8990741 said:Then why did he deny that he said anything about "picking cotton" on Alice Jones today, accusing the NY Times of injecting those words to make him look like a racist????

As I said he used poor language, very poor language. I have no clue about his not saying cotton, I've not heard about that, but I don't think he meant it in a horrible or racist manner. If he did he would not have said he does not want 'Blacks" to go back or 'Hispanics'. He would not have said what wonderful people they were if her were racist or trying to be racist.
I believe the context does not make it seem anywhere near as ominous compared to what was in the Times.
