Christian Right Wing T-Shirts Accused Of Calling For Obama Assassination

From The Huffington Post
Apparently, the latest thing in “Debasing The Institutions You Pretend To Hold Dear In Order To Suggest That President Barack Obama Should Be Murdered Without Actually Coming Right Out And Saying So” goes by a shorter name: Psalm 109:8.
And Psalm 109:8 is just straight up memetastic, appearing on bumper stickers and T-shirts, all of which carry the benign sounding message, “Pray For Obama.” But, as Gawker’s John Cook points out, this is just one more in a “long line of cheekily coded Obama death threats.” The verse in question reads: “May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership.” That leads fairly naturally into the Psalm 109:9, “May his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.” You know, in case you miss the point.

What these Obama-hating Black people don’t realize if when then curse another one of us, they’re cursing themselves. Wake up — it doesn’t carry favor for racists to not want you dead too!
And all why hate? It’s customary for people to disagree and even dislike a president, but Obama receives more hatred that it seems even George Bush got. Bush was treated like an adorable punch-line for comedians, but Obama has got people CURSING him?? Like, Biblically? Gee I wonder why…)
Just shows you how racist whites and scared Blacks would rather see higher-reaching and higher-aiming Black people DEAD. Too much positivity to process …
OTHER HATED BLACK PEOPLE (and by the way, ‘hate’ is just a symptom of FEAR — so hate us all ya want!):
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Nat Turner
Rosa Parks
Malcolm X
Oprah Winfrey
All Black athletes who played and excelled at previously white-dominated sports
All Black musicians who’ve had their music stolen by white copycats (pretty much all of music history)
Too many other examples to name, AND …
Jesus Christ (yes, I said it! lol)
All these self-hating Blacks co-signing for this … slave mentality is still in effect in ‘10 … “yes, Boss, we sho’ hate that Obama. Yes SUH, Boss, we’s good negroes … off with his head!”
SMH to the nth degree …
Don’t you just love it? Racists, haters and murderers bearing the cross of Jesus and calling themselves “Christians”.
I have one question: HOW COME A BLACK MAN IS IN JAIL FOR 2 YEARS for singing a rap song about killing cops and all these people can just BLATANTLY threaten our President and nothing happens to them?
I’m starting to get sick of OBAMA myself! Why doesn’t he put their asses in JAIL???
And Why do so-called Christians use the Old Testament so much if it’s not supposed to have as much bearing as the New Testament with the alleged words of Yashua-Ben-Yusuf in red letter print?
Not suprising….Supposed “Christian right wingers” (and yes the Klan believes that crap) bombed a church with four little girls in it! What I find so intriguing is that there are more BLACK christians than any other ethnic group globally, and that most of these folk have a lame a$$ed “turn the other cheek” mentality and what’s even more is that some of these folks will defend these misguided philosophies to the hilt. Don’t get me wrong, there are some people that need some control in their life and maybe their knowledge of the bible stops at the moment that church is dismissed, thankfully there are cats like the ones who have mentioned tha accompanying verses. Once you really start researching you’ll find that a lot of what it has to say is actually rooted in a lot of pagan rituals that started with the dawning of mankind. That being said, you now know why I think that religion has been instrumental in achieving equality, but since the civil rights movement it has left blacks back in the 20th century, whilst the rest of the world continues to move on. Anyhow, church and state are supposed to be SEPARATE, and this is a good reason why it should be!
I SWEAR MAN YOU CANT WIN FOR LOSING ITS EVEN BLACK PEOPLE HATING ON OBAMA WHAT THE HELL… OBAMA WILL BE ALRIGHT AS LONG AS GOD IS ON HIS SIDE NOTHING AND NO ONE CANT TOUCH HIM!!!!
The worse thing you can do is take God’s word out of content. I am in agreeance with 33ab33. You must read the entire book. This is something that Obama would be saying to God about these people. David was tired of his enemies lying and trying to kil him… Hint, hint, so this is what God said to God and this is what he asked God to do to his enemies
1Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
2For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
4For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.
5And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.
7When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.
8Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
9Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
They really need to be careful. The word of God does not lie and God just may do to them what they are asking him to do to our President.
Would’nt it be more productive for these people to simply pray that Obama doesn’t get reelected rather than take this thinly veiled (at times) assassination shots at him?
It’s a farce,there’s no such thing as a cristian that wishes anything bad on anybody.I don’t really believe there’s any such thing as a white christian,its in their nature to hate,kill,be racist,torture and oppress others,to make others suffer and get joy from it,believe that their pale skin color makes them superior to others,kill and rape theirown children and other children,and commit genocide.white christians,only in very rare cases.so these vermin that are wearing the shirts are not christians.just unnamed animals,creatures from the white lagoon.
Let us pray for them that they be crying when Obama takes office again in 2012 lol….
Christians, huh? Advocating hatred and calling for the death of an American president?? Hmmm! Sounds unpatriotic to me. So are we going to call all-out war on domestic terrorists, separatists camps and the Klan?? LOL, I doubt it. But look here, God don’t like nobody playing with His word like that. My grandma used to say “The spitball you throw at somebody else is the one that hits you in the back of the head”.
The prayer was supposed to start at verse 8 & progress into verse 9, You wanna know how these people think, watch “National Treasure 1 & 2″
White people love dropping hints… That’s something to ponder.
Taking a wholistic view of everything relevant in the news lately… There have been several actual Militia’s formed, this is on the verge of another civil war.
The only problem is that the feds have nukes and the ability to isolate any area, accompanied with heat-seeking technology makes a recipe for a slaughter. Rifles & pistols are pretty low-tech in this era.
White people paid attention on the Rodney King beating, they know if Obama get’s taken down MOST black people are going to act a got damn foo! So they are obviously gearing up for us.
That prayer isn’t just against Obama, it’s against any person not willing to do it “their” way, Which includes most of us!
If you read the entire Chapter, which is a Plea for Judgment of False Accusers, Obama could very well have this prayer against his accusers. It speaks of his request for the Lord to help him and his accusers may know it is His will (vs. 26), not Obama’s. “Let my accusers be clothed in shame.” (vs. 29) ” You, O God the Lord, Deal with me for Your names sake (vs.21) Only God can deal with/judge. So all will be well.
@Atyme using your logic, then wouldn’t we have to take Verses 1-? Why is it that you only want to use 9 and 10?
@MrNewBooty. Yes its obvious that verse 9 follows verse 8, and verse 10 follows that and verse 7 precedes verse 8 and so on. You’re assuming that they are printing Verse 9 but somehow mean verse 10. That is ludicrous, and we could play that jumping to conclusion game all day long, but it wouldn’t really get us anywhere. This is paranoia taken to a new level in my opinion.
Why wouldn’t they include verse 9. It completes the thought of the statement. That’s one of the reasons why ppl can’t understand the bible, they take out 1 part of whatever they need and leave the rest.
Round them up. From the Printers to the Asshle that’s buying and wearing them. Put them on a one way to GETMO!!! that’s Guantanamo Bay Cuba for those who don’t know….
Obama is my President.

I do agree that NewsOne is IMPLYING that people are trying to assassinate President Obama, but news should not be biased or reflect one’s own personal beliefs or values. It is simply here to inform. On the other hand I do believe the matter should be scrutinized very thoroughly because one day someone may have the audacity to try such a feat.
Whether or not you agree with NEWSONE’s tactics, it’s obvious if you go to the Bible and read the scripture of Psalm 109:8, the next verse is 9.
hmmm…if they are quoting Psalm 109:8 why is NEWSONE including verse 9??? Is the purpose for this to inform or incite? The quote should be taken for what it says, and not what conclusions people at NewsOne draws from it. That is reckless and irresponsible!!
that is a sheer terrorist threat. that trash should go to jail with the rest of them.
