Can't people complain to YouTube to get racist shit like this taken down?

Everyone should log into youtube and flag these as inappropriate.

elswinger @1 - If we stop that piece of shit from posting his hateful diatribe, then what's to stop the people of his ilk from censoring the stuff we like?

The beauty of living in America is that we have to live with the ugliness as well.

Funny, my grad class is studying disparities in intelligence tests right now. Yes, blacks score lower, but studies have shown that the IQ tests and the Stanford-Binet are based on cultural belief about, say individual v group responsibility, and are, in fact, normed on upper-middle class white kids, and that the disparities are the faults of the tests, not of the test-takers.

...how do groups that unilaterally include "America" somewhere in their name promote ideals of countries their grandfathers ostensibly fought against?

@ #1. Ugh, I am a real flip flopper on free speech even the really nasty stuff. I just turn the channel when I run into stuff I do not want to hear. After all, I do not want what I say censored by anyone. And last time I read the US Constitution (last week btw) we do not have a right to our feelings being hurt or being offended.

What a shock. The right wing homophobe extremists also hate blacks, Mexicans, and everyone else.

By 2012, the Democracts will be even more to the right (Lou Dobbs territory), the mainline Republicans will be where Michael Savage is right now, and Fox News will be hosted by the Aryan Nation. Satire? You be the judge.
