Equal Opportunity Offender

Rude

Offensive

Vile

Tasteless

Crude

Despicable

Tawdry

Sophomoric

Disrespectful

Derogatory



While y’all might not like what the aforementioned words stand for, there’s no doubt…here in the USo’A, the Constitution bestows upon us the inalienable right to be as offensive as we want to be. Don’t like it? Don’t read it. Don’t watch it. Don’t listen to it. Or better yet, move to Saudi Arabia where they execute people for that kind of stuff.


Last week some douchebag from a newspaper in the NYC published a cartoon similar to the one at the top of this posting. Holy cow! The outrage spewed out myriad pie holes faster than Ussein Bolt covering 100 meters. People wanted heads to roll, they wanted revenge, they wanted blood. Sorry guys. While we think the cartoon was a bit much…we disagree with pulling it or making the artist issue an apology. Why?


It’s simple…as soon we start censoring things that offend a certain segment of the population, where would it end?

Remember when Blacks and Whites getting married offended everyone below the Mason-Dixon line?

Remember when Elvis and the Beatles offended everyone over 30?

Remember when South Park did shows on Scientology, the LDS Church and JZeus all the while offending anyone with the faith of a mustard seed?



The crux of today’s biscuit is simple…Sticks and stones may break your bones but words, music, movies, video games, comics and cartoons will NEVER hurt you. Like Xander Cage said in XXX, “Come on, Dick... It's only education we got.”

Friends, Family and Fools

We just wanna hit one more point about Reverend Jeremiah Wright and then we'll let you get on with your weekend.


The ‘Bamer is getting pressure to renounce, denounce and bounce RJW because of the Rev’s controversial views. But here’s our thought…doesn’t EVERYONE have a crazy friend or relative who spouts weird stuff? We sure do.


Our pResident says the economy is only going through a bumpy time. Isn’t that one of the craziest things you’ve ever heard?


We’ve got a Senator who doesn’t believe in evolution but believes in intelligent design! WTF is HE thinkin’? Darwin and scientists for the last hundred years are wrong and the Invisible Man in the Sky is the seven-day-creator of everything. That sure sounds a lot crazier than anything RJW ever said.


Hell, we’ve even got folks in our bloodline who think Elvis is still alive, that aliens exist and that the NFL conspired to have the New England Patriots win the Super Bowl (y’all see how THAT turned out).



We’re just sayin’ we all have people in our lives who say (and do) stupid things…we say some pretty stupid things ourselves. But in America, saying stupid things isn’t a crime. Blowing the whole thing out of proportion isn’t either…but it should be.
