I read the New York Post everyday. I enjoy their gossip and their editorials give me a chance to see what the other side is up to. I’ve been reading Sean Delonas cartoons for some time, and have come to see him as a bigot with a pen.

Delonas is constantly making fun of gays (Star Trek’s George Takei), the disabled(Heather Mills McCartney) and the overweight(Oprah, Jessica Simpson and Rosie O’Donnell). GLAAD named him one of their worst people of 2008 for homophobic cartoons

He is like Rush Limbaugh with a pen, pushing the right wing agenda while disrespecting people of other cultures and ideologies.

His most offensive works are his anti-Arab pieces. He dehumanizes demonizes and ridicules Arab culture, people and even children. Here is some of him most offensive work, the Top 10 Most Offensive New York Post Cartoons.

RACIST OBAMA GREETING CARDS, TOO? YOU MAKE THE CALL!

    The only question that I can raise is that if he’s been known to do stuff like this – are we wrong to make a stink only when Obama seems to be the target? Most of the other stuff he’s made is dehumanizing and offensive to other cultures as well.

    You know what, I agree with BKNY. This cartoonist is racist and hateful, but it says more about our culture that we only react when his post is offensive to black people.

    its not just the cartoonist but its the company that lets him post these disgusting cartoons. the POST is just as racist as this Delonas guy is

    2 Steps forward, 10 steps back. It just goes to show you that the more things change the more they stay the same. Not just for our culture but for all cultures. This is a disgrace to everyone.

    SATIRE. Although it may be offensive, it is what it is…satire.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Jlynnd/ Jlynnd

    I don’t think the issue is so much because it’s Obama, I think people are reacting because it was SOOOO blatant and SOOOOO uncalled for. Well at least for me it is.

    Like, with some of these other ones, if it wasn’t for the caption at the bottom, I may not have understood exactly what he was trying to infer.

    All of his stuff is distasteful at best, but most of it is safe (so to speak) in the sense of what they’re able to get away with (freedom of speech remember)..but in the words of Kat Williams “this sh*t right here n*gga?? this s**t right here??” this sh*t right here is straight racist.

    there’s absolutely like NO other way to call this anything other than what it obviously is..monkeys, porch monkeys, ape, etc have long been used as racial slurs against us as it is. Put it like this, giving him the benefit of ALL doubt (even if I didn’t know about his past racist material, etc), EVEN if he had supposedly created this cartoon with no racial intent, and just had a sick, twisted sense of humor, he would have had to AT LEAST have acknowledged that this s**t would PROBABLY be taken the wrong way by any and every-m*thaf*ckin-body other than himself, who would see it…SMH

    Im not offended.

    There is a difference between political satire and racism….this is definitely racism. what made the distinction is the fact he showed a black monkey..to all the people who think its a satire, you must be immune to racism…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Sub-Negro/ Sub-Negro

    Most woman in the middle east aren’t treated that good at all. So I think that cartoon is pretty accurate.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/wakeup2g5/ wakeup2g5

    You know, it’s simple and plain, even if he didn’t mean racial implications(which I doubt), any reasonably intelligent person knows how that idiotic cartoon is going to be determined, either way, why would you, not only submit crap like that, but more importantly, why would you publish it!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LisaLisa777/ LisaLisa777

    Isn’t anyone concerned with the HORRID violence depicted here??? Two shots, two police doing the shooting. So disgusting. I detest the NY Post, they are soooooo irresponsible.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Kaiyeem-Dahlon/ Kaiyeem-Dahlon

    Wow, so this is what world has come to in 2009.
    These cartoons are very racist, it says a lot about his views and thought process when it comes to different cultures. Now I hate to say this, but he does have freedom of press,speech,religion, political affiliation, and the right to bare arms. Do not buy the paper (NY Post) if you want to cripple them for their racist publications.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Kaiyeem-Dahlon/ Kaiyeem-Dahlon

    It’s not shocking police have always gunned down innocent black men, and now they are starting to gun down the rest of humanity.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Unconditional01/ Unconditional01

    Come on folks, didn’t we expect this happen? If we are serious about responding back to the Post with our anger it is really simple…DON’T BUY THE PAPER. DON’T SPEND YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY WITH THEIR ADVERTISERS. While I understand the need to vent, we need to STOP supporting those types industries and businesses.

    So today we learn: (1) death to the infadels, (b) the terrorists have won.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/giarathadyme/ giarathadyme

    You see this, this is used to ignite anger in us and personally it has it makes us want to retaliate and fight stupid with stupid which is exactly what they want us to do they being Sean delonas and the rest of the invisable white sheet wearing “people”.

    Oh yes I’m angry, i wish i had a newspaper and knew how to draw I’d post my own “Satire”
    Picture this:
    A BIG BUTTERY ASS RITZ CRACKER WITH A VISIBLE TINY PEANUT FOR A BRAIN SITTIN THERE WITH A ETCH A SKETCH IN ONE HAND AND BROKE BLACK CRAYON IN THE OTHER.

    And the caption would read: “What are we going to do today Brain?

    Who can draw? I’ll call the DEFENDER right now!

    This is the typr of s**t to be expected from anti Obama americans. I work with lots of them at my place of employment. It just goes to show you that america will NEVER change. Racism is alive and well.

    simply just not good enough. They are still trying to defend the picture they are not sorry at all( the Buck stops here)what does that really mean. Is he going to quit and take the cartoonist with him?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/2daTopnonStop/ 2daTopnonStop

    I’m just sooooo proud at the regal, powerful, prestigious way OUR president handels these ignorant fools. Sticks & stones ya’ll…we learned that on the playground…yeah we know they are wrong for their ignorant hate filled views…but if they still can’t stand that the most powerful position is held by a man of African decent…maybe they should leave America & go back to where ever they came from…England, Ireland, Sweden…where ever…
    USA USA USA USA!!!

    I know it sounds bad….but cartoon #7 is actually pretty accurate…

    Anybody from New york knows what I’m about to say is the 100% truth….

    Every single year before the Trade Center buildings went down, each and EVERY Arab (or whatever) run corner store had tons of pictures of their children or young relatives who were overseas in their homeland dressed in fatigues AND HOLDING RIFLES AND GUNS!! The children over there in whatever circle it may be are TRAINED that way at very young ages…but after the attacks, I haven’t seen ANY of those pictures displayed anymore….funny how that works, huh?

    I mean, hell…i saw a FEW Al Quada (or however the hell you spell it) tapes where they were putting CHILDREN through the same so called training that they put future suicide bombers through….

    Am I condoning this…hell no…because it’s doing the same thing that rappers do to OUR community when they have acamera in their faces: they are made out to be the ones who speak for ALL black people, while all the while you have really great stories within our race that will NEVER see the light of day…now i’m all too sure that there are some great stories within THEIR communities also…but since the terrorists are the ones with the cameras in their faces, they are the spokespeople for everything Arabic or Muslim…

    Besides, you don’t EVER hear aboutthe GOOD THINGS overseas….the only teach people in this country about the bad s**t going on….prime example…I know someone who lives in Israel, and she has been trying for who knows how long to talk me into visitting over there…but I flat out refused each time because, and i quote, “I’m not trying to get blown up, are yuo crazy?…Her reaction wasn’t one of anger at my response…it was more of her trying to school me on all the NICE areas, and how that stuff really doesn’t happen out there like America makes it look…I’ve seen pictures, videos, even Google Earth snap shots of the area, and it is truly beautiful over there….but America doesn’t want you to see or know about that side of things. They want to keep our anger and discriminatory mindsets locked where it is….

    Think about it…
