The New Black: Racism, Sexism and Homophobia

The world is laughing at us. AGAIN.

Why are they laughing? Well, just in case Hurricane Katrina didn't convince the rest of the world that Americans are the most racist mother fuckers on the planet, now they're watching us tolerate Rush Limbaugh sing "Barack the magic negro."

This is not a question of rights. It's a matter of taste and judgement. When are we going to demand that our media behave like adults?

Continuing with this week's theme of White Supremacy, Americablog reports that James Dobson's crew at the American Family Association and some of the other radical Right Wing groups are quoting Paul Cameron.

In case you're not familiar with his work, Cameron advocates the extermination of homosexuals and tattooing HIV patients on their faces. Cameron's group, the Family Research Institute, is monitored by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an ACTIVE HATE GROUP!

Cameron made his remarks about exterminating gays at CPAC, where Ann Coulter called John Edwards a "faggot."

What scares me is that the people in a position to stop these hate mongers do nothing but idly stand by and listen.

Imus was fired for his racist jokes (which were also sexist-but he was fired for the racist remarks)....then why are these people allowed to speak such hate? Along with fellow hater Ann The Man Coulter, who uses homophobic language left and right, no one does anything to stop these people. No one MAKES them stop by reinforcing consequences.

Two idiot shock jocks called Opie and Anthony laugh up a storm while joking about raping Condi Rice. Yet, CBS Radio says it has no plans to fire the creeps.

Racist remarks? Maybe you'll be fired.
Homophobic verbal attacks? That's jusy everyday talk.
Misogynistic rape jokes? Haha, we don't REALLY mean it.
