From The Huffington Post

The Republican National Committee came under fire after a user posted a controversial photo on its Facebook page. The RNC “fan” upload features a picture of President Obama eating fried chicken with the slogan: “Miscegenation Is a CRIME against American values… Repeal Loving v. Virginia.”
Loving v. Virginia is a milestone civil rights case that led the Supreme Court to rule that prohibiting interracial marriage violates the Constitution.

    The picture in itself is actually only a slap in the phase implied emphasis on the caption. “Miscegenation is a crime…against American values” is what is much more important here to me. Miscegenation is basically interracial reproduction (mixed babies) . And the implications of this alone are staggering enough though not surprising when given the track record of the RNC and their followers personal beliefs.

You can’t twitter and call people fa—-gots without being suspended indefinitely from your professional football team. You can’t say he went out for a taco without being suspended from your sportscaster position at ESPN.

    But……..you CAN state ““Miscegenation Is a CRIME against American values…” because you’re ONLY talking about Black people and Steele is the face of the RNC…..Guess that means Black people are still at the bottom of the barrel…OOPS, I mean further down the barrel…

    Let me get this straight. The RNC takes the blame when a USER posts a “racist” pic on it’s website, but the DNC gets a pass when one of IT’S users posts a pic of GW bush puking at a state dinner in Japan? How do you spell DOUBLE STANDARD.

    Secondly, while the photo of Obama eating chicken might be the work or a racist, to infer that a picture of a black man eating chicken is DEFINITELY racist is racist in itself. That picture is no more racist than one of a white man in a business suit. It’s all in the juvenile, uneducated, twisted mind of the viewer.

    I have the same question as cestleon- where are all the comments? This just reinforces what I have always said…Blacks always have and always will be discriminated against and called everything but a child of God, and no one has too much to say about it. But let someone have an issue with a non-Black being Miss Hampton and they are called racist and/or a hater, and everyone, especially Blacks, are quick to come out of the woodworks to communicate that. Black people, WAKE UP!!! It’s unfortunate, but the main ones this applies to will probably never show up on this page or care enough to read it. If we as a people do not defend ourselves and command respect, who do we think is going to fight for us?

    Blessed one. Well said brother! It’s time to stop blaming others for the downfalls in society. The violence, the lack of education, the lack of morals in our youth can almost fully be blamed on one single thing: lack of good parenting. With a good foundation of morals and values, kids who stray, at least will know right from wrong and they might not stray too far off a good path. It’s up to the community itself to rise up and demand accountability from their own citizens for continuing the downfall of an entire nation. Noone is keeping anyone down these days, we all have the same access to schools & higher education. If you believe “forces” are keeping an entire race of people down only perpetuates the sense of entitlement and decreases the personal responsibility and common sense we all should have and teach our kids.

    Lets face it, there are some people are bent on expressing their racsit views and images no matter what the 12% of the population says. I believe the main reason those the racist images of our President became such a free for all is due to the race-bating comments of the likes of Rush Limbaugh and other whites who in the spirit of their ancestors want to keep painting black people as the inferior race. The hate mongers are so full of themselves that they are trying to push an agenda of white supremacy under the cloak of talk radio and or talk(FOX News) TV. It is no surpise that many of the race-baiting and hate mongering are coming from the Republicans.

    Just as this country made history last November, it continues to make history. 1). Never before have the secret service had to dela with so many threate against a President that htey are dealing with today. 2). Over 9 million rounds of ammunition has been purchased from gunshops since President Obama has been in office. 3). We are seeing an excessive amount of contempt for the President by many white people.

    Black people and others have to be vigilent against racism, becuase it has plagued our nation far too long. We can’t be guilty of racist acts or ocomments about whites. What kind of future do we want to leave to our children. Our ancestors debt with humiliation that we cannot not even phathom. It is because of their strength and endurance that we have risen to such heights as we are today.

    If this world exist another thuosand years, what do you think your seed will being doing?

    Not all white people are bad, there’s lots of good white people but just like in every race there’s a small element of bad people. These white conservatives are scared. The college graduation rates for blacks and latinos are on a rise. Blacks and Latinos have started picking up prominent positions in high positions including the govt for example. Blacks, Latinos, Asians will be nearly half of the population by 2040. These racist conservatives are scared.

    I wish Black Planet would stop putting a magnifying glass on this nonsense. When you let the racist people know that they got your attention, they win. A few haters with a third grade education in a garage should not get the attention of anyone. Leave them alone. They will always hate until they are enlightened.

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

    Monte_Brown is absolutely correct. At some point, one would hope, intelligence and common sense must overcome racism. I have read a number of the comments below regarding the photo of Barack Obama eating fried chicken. We don’t even know who posted the photo. For all anyone knows, it was a Liberal, or even an African American so full of hate that they placed the photo on the web site just to make the Republicans look bad.

    The fact of the matter is, I don’t even believe that it is a legitimate story. First of all, I went online to the RNC website. I searched dozens of pages of photos on the site and noticed that everyone listed had the full name of the person who uploaded the photo. This photo of Barack Obama only lists “Gee Dub”, an obvious mocking of George Bush.

    Secondly, look at the format of the Obama photo. It has “Added by Gee Dub to ‘ Republican National Committee” listed in the lower right hand corner of the photo. All of the photos on the RNC web site have the upload information along the upper left edge of the photo. For example: “Posted by: Thomas Kubica on October 29, 2009 at 9:27AM CST ”

    This is obviously a setup to give racists, like many of those who have written comments below, an excuse to justify their own racism by pointing to that of others.

    The Republican Party is not the enemy of black Americans. The worst enemy of black America are those who continue to misdirect the hatred and anger of blacks towards Republicans and whites, thereby dissapating the passions that could, and should otherwise be directed at the failings of black leadership to address the problems of crime, poverty, poor educational performance and lack of real opportunity in the African American community.

    Even if that photo was real and posted on the RNC. That person, as Monte_Brown has perfectly stated, is a hater “with a thrid grade education” and does not warrant our passions. That person is beneath us. NewsOne is not providing anyone a service by concentrating on such negative stories.

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

    so-called “white” people are just scared that when the MAJORITY of melanated dark peoples of the world, wake up, rise up and start being ourselves again…..that we will do to ‘white’ people what they did to everyone else.

    and please leave the white girls alone…..we snatched up enough of their women in spain/italy/portugal back in the day….. ‘white’ folks are an endangered species and if we mix with them, they will be wiped out. so please be considerate lol

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

    SoularFlarez, you should climb out of your ignorance and read a book. When you say that “melanated dark peoples” are going to “do to ‘white’ people what they did to everyone else” I am not sure what you are talking about. Slavery? I doubt that there will be much profit in having a serious conversation with a racist who can’t see beyond the color of someone’s skin, but here goes:

    Whites did not invent slavery. Nor did they introduce it to Africa. Slavery existed in Africa thousands of years before whites ever arrived. And the silly notion that whites went into Africa and kidnapped blacks and sold them into slavery is also not true. (I saw that scene in “Roots.” It was horses**t. Twice, Portuguese sailors tried to do that, and both times they were captured and sold into slavery.) An intricate network of slave trading existed throughout Africa long before the whites got there. Those networks brought as many as 85 million blacks from Sub-Saharan Africa, mainly to the Muslin nations of the Mid-East, but also to Arab Plantations in East African, and as far as India and China -85 million to Islamic nations; 400 thousand to what became the United States.

    Long before Christopher Columbus introduced Europeans to the New World, blacks had been enslaving other blacks and selling them all over their known world. It was because of this network that Europeans were able to go to West African ports and buy slaves. It is very unlikely that the Atlantic Slave Trade would have ever existed if African blacks were not ready, willing and able to enslave and sell their own.

    Whites did not bring slavery to Africa, but they did put an end to it. Our Constitution ended the Atlantic Slave trade in 1808. Thanks to the work of William Wilberforce, England outlawed it in 1807, then banned slavery all together in 1832. Then the US and England put their navies along the African coast in order to enforce the end of the Atlantic slave trade. You can argue that they had ulterior motives, but England and France are the ones who put an end to slavery within Africa.

    Furthermore, here in the United States, not all slaves were black -originally, white were brought here as slaves; Oliver Cromwell sent tens of thousands of Irish Catholic Royalist into slavery two generations before the first shipment of Africans was brought to North America. And -hold on to your seats- not all slave owners were white. At the time of the American Revolution, the largest slave owner in the Carolinas was a black man who owned over 300 slaves. Throughout the South, thousands of blacks owned slaves. Owning land and slaves was something many black aspired to in the Colonial US.

    (Hugh Thomas, The Slave Trade: The Story Of The Atlantic Slave Trade: 1440 – 1870; Philip Curtin, Atlantic Slave Trade: A Consensus; Donald L. Canney, Africa Squadron: The U.S. Navy and the Slave Trade, 1842-1861; John Wright, The Trans-Saharan Slave Trade: History and Society in the Islamic World; Gwyn Campbell, Structure of Slavery in Indian Ocean Africa and Asia; William Gervase Clarence-Smith, The Economics of the Indian Ocean Slave Trade in the Nineteenth Century: Frederick Cooper, Plantation Slavery on the East Coast of Africa; Don Jordan and Michael Walsh, White Cargo: The Forgotten History of Britain’s White Slaves in America; Michael Johnson and James L. Roark, Black Masters: A Free Family of Color in the Old South; Larry Koger, Black Slaveowners: Free Black Slave Masters in South Carolina, 1790-1860)

    And just out of curiosity, you state that when ” melanated dark peoples” become the majority, the “white” will get what is coming to them. For someone to be mixed, that means they must have had a white parent and a black parent, or a white and black grandparent. What makes you think that those people are all going to be as full of hate, ignorance and racism as you? What makes you think that those people are all going to hate their own families? Hopefully, by the time that children of white and black parents are the majority, people like you will be just odd curious memory, like the hate-filled Nazis of World War II Germany.

    Look, this is America. It is what ever you want it to be. Whatever you look for, you will find. If you want to look for some ugliness and then hate whites because of it: You will find enough for a lifetime of hatred. Bon Appétit! Of course, at the same time, ignorant whites can (and do) look around for some ugliness and hate blacks because of it. Hell, if someone wanted an excuse to hate blacks and accuse them of racism, they need only read a number of the comments posted daily on this web site!

    @ sanMarcos although you make some valid points I am unclear if you are trying to say that slavery being used by Europeans was justified because Africans were already engaged in it…if so I think that is a flawed concept. Just because one does it does not mean all have to follow suit.

    Furthermore, the more we feed into this crap the longer it goes. Instead of talking about what racist pictures are being put up by whoever it is, and I highly doubt the president even cares right now, we should be talking about more important things. FOR INSTANCE implementing mandatory parenting classes, working on ending violence among Blacks and Latino’s, the obvious lack of funding for urban city schools.

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

    Stormyweathers25, no, please do not misconstrue my last comment to justify or make excuses for slavery. My point was that the very common Liberal notion that whites must bear guilt and responsibility for slavery is simply wrong. Whites in Europe and America played a huge role in ending slavery (Civil War, West African Squadrons, etc.,) but admittedly, they also profited off the slave trade for 300 years. The point is that so did Africans, and Hispanics and Indians and Asians. Slavery existed all over the world, in every culture and every religion. Even in the United States, many people still do not realize that whites were brought here into slavery before Africans were, and that there were many African Americans who themselves were slave owners.

    But you have made my point better than I did: What does any of that matter today. It makes for great history books, but it does not educate anyone, it does not give anyone a job. I could not agree with you more with the points you make in the second paragraph. How much better off would our kids be if instead of handing out condoms in sex-ed class, we had high school parenting classes that include actually having to be responsible for one or more children for a short period of time?

    For most Americans, the average life span is 78 years, and the most common cause of death is heart disease, then cancer. Did I read correctly that the leading cause of death for black men 15 to 24 is homicide. Why doesn’t News One focus on this in a pro-active, positive outcome approach to an important issue for blacks. (Because they have not yet figured out how to blame whites for black-on-black crime.) Instead, News One (and far too many of those who comment) seems to prefer to further the philosophy that “scratch a white man and you’ll find a racist.” Nearly every story that I have read on this site is an excuse to attack or highlight perceived racism of white against blacks. And many of those who comment use those stories to excuse and vent their own hatred and racism. That is why I started commenting on these stories.

    As I have said before, News One has a readership here that offers them an opportunity to help the black community. Instead, they seem content on fueling hatred within it.

    And los-68, I also agree with you 100%, only I’m not sure that I would have (or even could have) phrased it as eloquently you.

    Well all you who have been fooled over the years and thought that the whites were your friends.. well well well, their true nature is coming out and now you cannot deny it! I guess it took a mixed person like Obama who is not even 100 % black to bring it out of them. Well I would say go ahead repeal it, we all know we will never be equal living side to side..(Comeon people lets be frank and honest about this)! Only way we will see success is having our own land and our own territory.

    Half Black? It was an old racist law that white people created that states if you have one drop of black blood in you, then you’re black, period! Now everyone is acting like his “half whiteness” means something today. Anyway, this picture is extremely derogatory, and egregious! What sort of response did they expect by showing our black president eating chicken? WTF.. That picture has set us back yet again.

    TRUTH IS:

    SLEEPING AROUND WITH THOSE FILTHY FLEA BITTEN MANGE AND PARASITE CARRYING DOGS IS NASTY.

    YOU BLACK PEOPLE GOD GIVEN COMMON SENSE SHOULD TELL YA’LL THAT THOSE OTHER RACE OF PEOPLE ARE NOTHING LIKE YA’LL,THEY DON’T LOOK LIKE YA’LL,THEY DON’T SMELL LIKE YA’LL,THEY DON’T ACT LIKE YA’LL,THEY DON’T THINK LIKE YA’LL,THEY DIDN’T COME FROM YA’LL,THEY DON’T TALK LIKE YA’LL BUT,THOSE OTHER RACE OF PEOPLE DON’T HAVE ANY GOD GIVEN COMMON SENSE TO THINK THAT WAY JUST LIKE THEY DON’T HAVE ANY GOD GIVEN COMMON SENSE TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE FULL OF MANY DIFFERENT KIND OF INFECTIOUS VIRUSES AND DISEASES THAT YOU BLACK PEOPLE DON’T HAVE BUT,STILL IN ALL THEY SAY COME ON AND TRY THEM OUT IN THE BED (in other words they are born some infectious disease carrying and passing animals).

    TO BE INTELLIGENT IS TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHATS RIGHT AND WHATS WRONG (in other words its the opposite of being ignorant).

    INTELLIGENT IS THE OPPOSITE OF IGNORANT

    DO ANY OF YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SAME AND THE OPPOSITE? COME ON NOW DIDN’T WE ALL LEARN THAT IN ABOUT THE 1ST GRADE OF GRAMMAR SCHOOL

    BLACK AND WHITE ARE NOT THE SAME ITS THE OPPOSITE

    THOSE TWO PEOPLE ARE THE SAME BECAUSE THEY ARE BLACK BUT,THOSE TWO PEOPLE ARE NOT THE SAME BECAUSE ONE IS WHITE AND ONE IS BLACK.

    UP AND DOWN IS NOT THE SAME ITS DIFFERENT

    DEAD AND ALIVE IS NOT THE SAME IT IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE ONE IS HERE AND ONE IS GONE.

    DAY AND NIGHT IS NOT THE SAME IT IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE ONE IS LIGHT AND ONE IS DARK.

    TO BE A MATCH IS TO BE THE SAME.

    NOW DO I HAVE TO BRING MY 12yr.old SON INSIDE OF HERE TO TRY AND EXPLAIN THIS TO SOME OF YOU?

    WHAT DO THEY TEACH YOU BLACK PEOPLE KIDS IN SCHOOL ABOUT SEX EDUCATION? DO THEY TELL THEM TO SLEEP WITH THOSE OTHER RACE OF PEOPLE? DO THEY TELL THEM THAT A PEN!S IS A PEN!S AND THAT A VAG!NA IS A VAG!NA WHEN TRULY IT IS NOT AND IF SO,THEN THEY ARE NOT TEACHING THEM ON HOW TO AVOID CATCHING CERTAIN DISEASES THAT THOSE OTHER RACE OF PEOPLE CARRY.

    THIS IS WHAT I CALL WISING UP TO THE TRUE FACTS OF LIFE.

    YOU BLACK PEOPLE DO NOT BE KILLING UP THOSE WHITE PEOPLE AND THOSE FOREIGN PEOPLE BUT,THEIR BORN MENTALLY DISTURBED PSYCHOTIC AZZES SURE DO BE KILLING YOU BLACK PEOPLE UP THOUGH.

    THOSE STUPID FILTHY WHITE PEOPLE WILL TELL YOU BLACK PEOPLE THAT YA’LL BLEED RED BLOOD BUT,WHAT THEY ARE NOT TELLING YA’LL IS THAT THEIR RED BLOOD CELLS IS DEFINITELY CONTAMINATED.

    DON’T FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF IGNORANCE AND STUPIDITY.

    THE PATH OF THE DEVIL WILL LEAD YOU BLACK PEOPLE TO DEATH AND THE PATH OF GOD WILL LEAD YOU BLACK PEOPLE TO LIFE.

    THOSE WHITE PEOPLE AND THOSE FOREIGN PEOPLE ARE THE MAIN ONES THAT BE ENCOURAGING THIS KIND OF FILTHY BAD SEXUAL BEHAVIOR BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONES THAT CARRY AND PASS THOSE INFECTIOUS VIRUSES AND DISEASES TO OTHER PEOPLE.
