Racist White Supremacists Show Up At Houston NAACP HQ

While many of us were at church or chilling out today, the local area white supremacists, feeling froggy because their man Donald Trump is running for president, decided to leap out of their suburban 'hoods and desecrate Third Ward with their presence.  

They showed up in front of the Houston NAACP headquarters on Wheeler Ave bearing guns, Confederate flags and White Lives Matter signs for a Sunday afternoon protest

They claimed they weren't racist (dead giveaway) and weren't there to instigate or cause trouble, but the Confederate flag, guns and 'White Lives Matter' signs in addition to showing up in front of NAACP headquarters in the heart of the predominately Black Third Ward on a Sunday said otherwise.

They also spouted the laughably usual right wing bull feces claiming that Black Lives Matter is 'a terrorist organization' while wearing Trump 2016 t-shirts and hats.

They were also carrying a '14 Words' sign, which is a dog whistle to other white supremacists.

So what are those '14 Words'?

Fourteen Words is a reference to the white supremacist slogan: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."

It also can refer to a different 14-word slogan in white supremacist circles that states "Because the beauty of the White Aryan woman must not perish from the earth."
NAACP president Cornell Brooks tweeted that 'We an not intimidated' by White Lives Matter' protesters.  And how ironic the white supremacist ignorati are protesting a human rights organization in the NAACP that was founded predominately by white people in 1909?

The Houston Black Lives Matter Chapter said in an official statement concerning the protest:

It came to our attention earlier this week that there would be a "White Lives Matter" protest today. While it is always tempting to go and challenge those White people who come out and attack our movement, it is more important that we teach Black people that ‪#‎BlackLivesMatter‬. People like these White supremacists are a waste of space and time, their minds are already made up and so are ours, What would we need to discuss with them?

 The hard truth is that the Houston Police Department has been waiting to pounce on us. The situation would have endangered us in a way that dishonors why one would die for the liberation of Black bodies. The moment we would have arrived, they would have protected those white folks who came to a Black community to protest not just BLM but all Black people and perpetuate the racism that has always been part of their ideology.

Hate is a powerful thing, but only IF you give it power and narrative.  

This mess today is why Trump, the GOP and the white supremacists who support him must suffer an utterly crushing electoral defeat on November 8.

Judge Not, Homophobes

Love this quote by Laverne Cox, and it got me thinking about the on target point that she's making.

Indeed, how in the hell do you faith-based haters think that Conservagod (what I call your right-wing interpretation of God)  will judge SGL, bi and trans people for who they love, and that same God will not judge you for hating someone you'll never met?

Yeah, you anti-LGBT peeps that claim you're Christian sure do violate Mark 12:31 on a regular basis.

What's Mark 12:31 you ask?   Let's peruse that scripture together shall we?

And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

It's been painfully obvious to everyone in LGBT World and our allies that those of you who this Laverne Cox quote applies to are basically hiding behind the Bible to unleash your inner homophobes and oppress people.

We ain't having it.   We have long since reached the point in which we are beyond sick and tired of being oppressed by you alleged 'Christians'

And you faux Christians with your anti-GLBT doctrines give real Christians a bad name.

If you don't like me calling you faith-based oppressors, haters, Bible thumping bigots, or whatever other creative sobriquet I can think of, then when when you stop acting like oppressors and start living up to the tenets of Christian faith that you claim to follow, them I'll think about giving you some respect.

Because I don't have to respect any person that wishes to roll back mine or my community's human rights.  And it's your unbridled several decade war on the humanity of LGBT people that causes us to not like your hypocritical behinds either.

So judge not, homophobes, lest ye be not judged.

UnKKKle Pat Bounced From MSNBC

Here's some wonderful news to get your Friday off to a great start.  

After ten years of spewing his white supremacist bigotry and racism on the air, looks like Pat Buchanan will no longer be doing his shticKKK at MSNBC.  

He got dropped from the network yesterday after being indefinitely suspended for his latest waste of trees entitled Suicide of a Superpower. 

It included such scintillating chapters entitled "The End of White America" and "The Death of Christian America."   Of course UnKKKle Pat denied his critics charges that his book was racist, anti-Semitic and homophobic, but his azz has been wallowing in vanillacentric privilege and trafficking in all of the above since the Nixon administration..

It was a big win for ColorofChange.org, which launched a petition drive that collected over 86,000 signatures seeking to get MSNBC to oust his bigoted behind. 

Of course Pat aimed his ire over his dismissal at ColorofChange in a blog post, but the bottom line is that we will no longer be subjected to seeing Buchanan's bigotry on MSNBC.   He'll need to move on to a network more suitable for his racist rants, and I presume Fox News Noise will be extending him an offer any time now.

Hatemonger Sally Kern Strikes Again

I so wish that Brittany Novotny had beaten hatemonger Oklahoma state Rep. Sally Kern (R-Oklahoma City) last November.   Not only would Brittany be doing a much better job representing the people of HD 84, those folks would have a representative that has light years more smarts and class than Ms. Kern.

Ms. Kern is not just content to piss off the gay and trans communities any more, she now targeting her bigotry at the African American community in the state of Oklahoma.

"We have a high percentage of blacks in prison, and that’s tragic, but are they in prison just because they are black or because they don’t want to study as hard in school? I’ve taught school, and I saw a lot of people of color who didn’t study hard because they said the government would take care of them.”

She also parted her lips to say that minorities earn less than white people because they don’t work as hard and have less initiative.

Really?  You wanna cough up the money for the 246 years of unpaid labor you owe us 'lazy Black people'?  

She made those remarks as the Republicans in the Oklahoma legislature pushed a constitutional amendment designed to wipe out affirmative action programs in the state.   It will be conveniently timed to appear on the 2012 ballot even though no preferences are currently done for jobs, contracts or college admissions in Oklahoma. 

The proposed amendment has already passed the Oklahoma Senate and passed the house on a 59-14 vote with 28 members either abstaining or not voting..

Oh well, the one thing about Sally Kern getting another term in office is that other states can always use her bigoted soundbites as part of their strategy to keep companies from relocating to Oklahoma
