Va. school board member asked to resign over racist Michelle Obama emails - Salon.com



What a lame and whiny excuse. Racist pigs like this have no place in our school systems. Let him be an ignorant racist in the unemployment line.

I agree....what a whiny excuse. I think I've seen the same kind of excuse from Jeremiah....

I won't shut up!!! Freedom of speech!

Please stop with the false accusations, Bodecea. Freedom of Speech still prevails here glad to see this guy using his.

Quoting racist "jokes" is at least a little bit on the racist side.

But it is appalling to see so-called "liberals" tripping over themselves to get the offender "fired."

Free speech used to mean something to liberals.

Nowadays, it appears that what they seek to protect is ONLY politically correct speech.

No one has called for him to be fired. Additionally you don't find defense of this racism to be appalling at all.

Wrong, the very first post in the thread (the OP) called for him to be fired. Of course, Muddly Dullwit is just a fucking idiot.

As for the imbecility of the racist joke, I already said that quoting such shit is akin to being racist. It is not something of merit.

So, WTF. It was a stupid racist joke or two or three. It got quoted. Stupid and racist. And?

It's still a matter of free speech.

The ACLU defended the scumbag "Nazis" in the dust-up in Skokie Illinois on free speech grounds. Nobody with a functioning brain cell in their head would say that the ACLU supports the views of fucking Nazis. What they supported was the RIGHT of even debased shitholes like the American "Nazis" to speak their filthy thoughts.

I hate the ACLU, but I think at least standing up on THAT principle is something they deserve some credit for.

What happened to modern American "liberals" who now support "free" speech only on some very selective bases?

This is not about Free Speech. The asshole had the right to say it...no one is taking it away or requesting his imprisonment. So calm down on the 1st amendment smoke and mirrors.

This is about the guy telling racist jokes. The audience he sent it too didn't like it. Now his ass might get canned. Now are you saying his employer has to keep him employed there because you can say whatever the fuck you want to and employers cannot fire that person because the 1st amendment protects them?

The OP (whos on the internet and faceless) says he should be fired and you find that appalling. The racist joke you find to be stupid.

I think you're using appalling wrong...or something

However racist the cartoon of Big Moo's high school reunion is, it isn't nearly as racist as posting a real picture of Moo as a high school girl.

Ok....so according to the OP:

Herb DeGroft forwarded his colleagues emails featuring images of topless African women and racially loaded references to first lady Michelle Obama. Board members have reported receiving other offensive emails from DeGroft beginning in January 2012.

Everyone is hung up on the racist part but it seems to me to be really unprofessional and out of line to be sending folks unsolicited pictures of topless women...

DeGroft says the emails were meant to be “political” and not racist, and thinks that forwarding offensive emails isn’t quite the same thing as originating an offensive email chain, apparently: “None of them I initiated, if you look at them. They were all initiated by somebody else,” he told the Daily Press. DeGroft sent the emails in question to Vice Chairman Byron Bailey, who went on to share them with other county staff.

What an idiot. He really doesn't make his case any better by trying to claim porn is "political" rather than "racist"....


Maybe he deserves to be fired.

I guess I'm not surprised that a bunch of libs at salon and this board are getting all worked up over emails they have not even seen. They cheered the death of Osama Bin Laden without seeing his death photos. Some people will believe anything. Gullible creatures...

 

[Stephanie]

Yes it was unprofessional and that should be addressed with the person..

but you notice the who focus of Salon with their TITLE, is it was a racist email about the Queen Obama .
Salon does know how to get their rabid members foaming at the mouth and keep them paying their bills..

We have no authority over this guy....but those who DO, did see the e-mails. Are you saying they are wrong in reacting as they did?

ram is pretending we can only give an opinion if we've seen the actual screenshots. lol...descriptions are not good enough for Ram. Why? He doesn't know...

When Ram was in history class he made a way back machine to view history first hand....or he believed the descriptions.
