New Racial Codeword: "Thug"

There's actually a major Social Justice Warrior controversy over whether we can call thugs "thugs," or whether that's -- wait for it -- racist.

Mayor Space-to-Destroy has apologized for calling looters and arsonists "thugs," but Obama hasn't. Josh Earnest says he stands by that word.

Black Twitter called Obama an "Uncle Tom n*****r ass cracker" for using it.

I wouldn't give Obama any kudos for "standing behind" the word thug. He stands behind everything he says and does, because he's a malignant narcissist who becomes petulant and angry when someone suggests fault in him.

So, he's not standing behind "thug" out of course, but rather because it's his habit. And standing behind everything you do or say is not courage: In fact, it's cowardice. It takes bravery to examine oneself for flaws and to confess them.

Obama's right on this point, but, of course: Accidentally.

Oh, and you know what else is controversial? Whole Foods' donation of sandwiches to the National Guard, probably an encouragement to the Guard to stop the thugs from burning down their store.

But the thugs want to burn shit, and it's racist to do tell them "No," so.

Obama said that a Iranian thug boat was dragging that Maersk ship back out into the Persian Gulf.

I'm just reading in a Krautish tabloid that it's still tied up in Iran.

A lot of new (to me) details. Ship was chartered by a German company. Captain and mates are Eastern European, crew is Asian.

They've had telephone contact, everyone is healthy. Everyone is also confined to quarters except for bathroom breaks. Chartering company has no idea why the ship was waylaid.

We steal their music and dance moves. They steal our social media outlets.

I live in NH. Nine times out of ten when I call someone a thug I'm talking about some white sumbitch (or bitch, b/c I'm equal opportunity) who's swagging along, acting like s/he wants to break some windows and steal some shit.


Thug's only a racist codeword if the majority of thugs you encounter happen to be black. To the rest of the universe it's just another way to call someone a dick with criminal compulsions.

The idea, as many of you may know, is to make ANY word and/or criticism "racist." They do not want to debate; they want to destroy and take over.

The monster has been incubating for 50 years. The only reason it may not be that bad is thanks to Planned Parenthood nipping this in the bud, as it were. Hence, the importation of millions more "disaffected Democrat youths" from south of the border to populate the cadres.

We are heading for disaster.

Style tip:

If you just burned down a convenience store, threw a rock in a window, beat up some random person, murdered some people or were otherwise destructive then I am going to consider you a thug. So is everyone else.

You might turn some people too chickenshit to call you a thug because they are still afraid of being called racist, in which case they will think of some other way to say the same thing and it will start to piss you off in the same way. Because language is adaptable.

212 re earlier post about weather and gdp--

this misses the point. *democratic* snow hurts growth and excuses a flagging economy

*republican* snow causes a stimulus effect as all the plow drivers are paid overtimes and artificially boosts gdp.

that is why the correlation looks mixed.

At least that is what I have learned reading the msm over the years.

Also, if 80+% of kids are getting their meals at schools, then I'm assuming those same 80+% of families aren't getting any SNAP benefits. I mean, because they don't need them for the kids since the kids are getting meals at school instead.

Ahahahahaha I crack me up.

It's bizarre, the idea that someone owes them food, is responsible for their children if school is unexpectedly cancelled.

Do these children starve on snow days, too?

And what about weekends - does the food magically arrive on Friday afternoon to feed them on Sat and Sun or are they starving over the weekend, too?

If you can't feed your kid on a school day off then maybe you're not a fit parent. I know: racist.

Maybe we're going about this all wrong. The Rape Culture activists have a saying: "Teach Men Not to Rape." The assumption being that all men are rapists. So....how about we start saying: "Teach Kids Not to Riot."

I know it's backwards, but most of the supporters like Van Jones trot out their cutesy Community Activist sayings like "Rioters are the voice of the unheard" and whatnot, essentially claiming the rioting (not protesting) is an acceptable form of political speech.

According to the dictionary, synonyms for thug include vandal, bandit, bully, criminal, gangster, goon, gunman, hooligan, rioter, rowdies, troublemakers, delinquents, gorilla, hood, punk, and ruffian. I'd be supportive of any of those terms, if thug (short by the way for Thuggee, who were organized gangs of thieves and assassins in India, destroyed by the British in the 1830s) is for some reason unacceptable.

Right now, the City of Baltimore and State of Maryland pay $171,000 per year to put her 6 kids through school. She probably gets some sort of housing assistance and perhaps food subsidies.

Easily costing the government over $200,000 per year.

I would trust her with a voucher deal to home school at $140,000/year that she would have to declare as income and pay tax on.

While carrying the flag post further to the left O'Bama pretends that he's not because his sock puppets keep shifting farther and farther in to left field faster then he is.

That is how this all works. Conservatives in general like things the way they are so they don't want to move at all. The Progressives keep trying to change the rules so they can make the Conservatives move.

My favorite Newspeak is the one where they start lecturing me about how the GOP is so far right of where Reagan was. If anyone believes that I have a bridge I want to sell you. The left has just moved their own flag far down field and are now claiming that their current positions are what they always believed. JFK would not be backing gay marriage or any one of a dozen hot ticket issues that the left screams about these days on MSNBC.

Sherman is insanely smart and knew exactly what he was doing with his actions in the 2013-14 season. Notice how once he made a national name for himself and got some good endorsement deals his antics seemed to cool off?

Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues,
And you know it don't come easy.
You don't have to shout or leap about,
You can even play them easy.

Forget about the past and all your sorrows,
The future won't last,
It will soon be over tomorrow.

I don't ask for much, I only want your trust,
And you know it don't come easy.
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time,
And you know it just ain't easy.

Open up your heart, let's come together, Use a little love
And we will make it work out better.

Would also depend on details - was it daylight or at night (where it would be harder to determine it was a toy)? Was it one of the many nerf or super-soaker type guns that all clearly toys (flourescent colored, etc.) or was it a more realistically styled gun in a dark color, made to mirror an actual gun model? Under what circumstances was he using the gun - was he chasing around friends and laughing (playing cops and robbers, water pistols) or was he the only one w/a toy gun and it wasn't obviously role-play game to an outsider?

Whole Foods here almost always stocks it. Nice to patronize them (for once) considering the Baltimore crap. And if they have shoulder or blade chops, they can grind it. Try to get the least fatty ones, although it is naturally not that lean a cut.

Yeah, it is coming along. Surprise, surprise, it is taking a lot longer than I expected. We are currently on revision 20 or so of the first chapter, revision six of the part 1, revision three of part 2, and hopefully will actually get a chance to revise parts 3, 4, 5, and 6 this time out.

The angry spirit gets a real chance to act out. Although the burning down of the Shirikawa Mansion during the Hogen Rebellion was attributed to the fire arrows used by Taira no Kiyomori's forces during his night attack on the Emperor, as it turns out, they were mistaken. It was the ghost, when she got a little pissed.

The $28,500/year/student figure is what the Washington Post reported that the city of Baltimore spent in (I believe) 2012. It's probably well over $30,000 this year.

Washington D.C. is higher, with about the same success rate.

New York and Detroit a bit lower, but not much.

2. Someone of a protected ethnic class performs bad behavior.

3. That word is used in conjunction with someone of a certain ethnicity, performing undesirable acts.

Mine isn't quite that extreme. Just petulant about how unfair things are. When her patron was revealed to be an oni, well her other clients and friends fled. Then she killed herself. The Buddhist monks managed to contain her, but the monastery failed, not decided if she did that, and her box ended up being peddled by a beggar to a wealthy American tourist in the late 1800s. And now its modern US and she is seeking a new life.
