  • Wow.

    HCARTEXAS: “Muck Fuslims……..They are EVIL… and I will never accept them in MY country. I urge all of you of like mind, to not do business with them, not be polite to them, do not tolerate them… do not allow them to eat in your resturants or shop in your stores…..I dont allow them in mine.”

    You people here just let this kind of hate pass by and say nothing? Are you all that hateful or just all too cowardly to stand up? It‘s not Muslims’ country too. Not just yours, Tex. But I’m sure you believe that if someone is Muslim, they should be stripped of their citizenship and shipped off to another country right? Along with everyone else that agrees with you? You’re as un-American as it gets.

    Freedom of religion… as long as it’s mine.
    Freedom of speech… as long as I agree.

    The US could do with a lot less citizens like YOU. But I would never advocate treating you as a second class citizen. I happen to believe in Freedom of speech, even when it’s coming out of the mouth of someone as ignorant, wrong-headed, and un-American as you.

  • They’re BOTH political hacks. Neither one should be on the air.

  • Some people are offended… So what? Don’t we live in the U.S.? Offending people is not a violation of the law. These are public figures who do not have the same protections you or I have. It’s entirely legal to satirize any of them. What happened to Freedom of Speech? You want to curtail it so you’re not offended? That’s a HUGE mistake. Who gets to determine what’s offensive?

    If you don’t like the ad, don’t buy from them. Boycott them. If enough people are offended, it would effect the company’s bottom line. Wouldn’t that be the Free Market approach?

  • Funny how you show the picture of the kid with the black guy. The old “My Best Friend Is Black!” defense. You can have friends that are other ethnicities and still be racist. Also, the kid apparently has some sort of history related to racism at the school.

    That being said, he’s a kid. Even if he said the N-word, the kid should not have been kicked from school. It just seems like another “Zero-Tolerance” snafu. Kids say stupid things. Kids do stupid things. They’re kids. Unless a student is endangering other students’ well-being, they should not be removed from school in such a knee-jerk fashion. It’s ridiculous.

  • They were concerned for their safety because they were surrounded by 200 students… so they sprayed the only people that weren’t surrounding them? Right.
