Next will be the butter and outlaw the knife!

First they came for the syrup, then they came for the pancakes. Liberalism marches on.

I liked black culture back in the 50-60's. I like motown music in the 60's. As black culture was changed by obama into an entitled culture, I didnt like it any more. Today, I want nothing to do with most black people, given that most of them feel the need to shove that entitlement down my throat.

Amos and Andy! The fifties?
One hoarse laugh is worth a thousand syllogisms-
That show gave whitey a better, truer, kinder and more sympathetic view of America and Blacks than all the posturing lectures of the Blank.

That loyalty is what makes me shake my head.

Yes it was good humor. Now it would be considered racist. I actually have a DVD of the old amos and andy TV shows. Still is funny.

They moved then from the original plantation to the NEW plantation where they are given just enough to stay alive with no way to improve their lot. And they still are loyal to the dems

The Jeffersons were funny...there was another show with a kid named JJ...that was even funnier.

It was all in "Good' humor in those days.

I never understood what the fuss was all about. My parents never said one thing, one way or the other about Black Americans...they just were, like the rest of us.
I did witness that the government brought them up from the south and shoved them into apartment buildings in the cities...I couldn't understand why but now I do.

How about amos and andy, or for that matter the jeffersons.

I used to just think of blacks as regular people. That has changed with the black entitlement culture taking over. Now I want nothing to do with people in that culture

They'd really have an epileptic fit over that one, now.

...And THAT is consequences we are living with now.

They could all radically change the culture by doing one thing...BEHAVE!

Thats funny. I can remember little dark brown fudge candies called tar babies. That went awhile ago. How about shinola- we dont see that anymore. those were all part of history of the time. I say we accept was and move on

Nobama was our worst president. He knew nothing about helping a country to succeed- he just wanted power and entitlement for the blacks. He took the black culture backwards during his 8 years.

If you want to radically change a culture, its necessary to eradicate all traces of the existing culture- which is what the left wants to do.

I always wondered when this icon would be attacked. It was part of history and thats that. Same could be said for Amos and Andy tv show. It was funny, and I used to watch it. I guess I would be considered racist today, but so what.

We cant erase History anyway, even if we wanted to. We are all affected by what went before, and we either accept it and learn from it, or we never advance as a person. I watched a lot of the hitler channel for example, so I could understand more about what happened back then. If there were no history channel and the books on that era, it could all happen again and we wouldnt even know what happened until it was too late.

How does he feel? About the same way I feel about the destruction of monuments to the Confederacy that my great-great grandfather fought for, and was imprisoned for, to protect from Andrew Jackson's control freaks.

How about we get rid of the letter n.

And Ulysses S Grant...

Thanks Real Bill.

They’ve apparently even gone after a Gandhi statue.

Yet we have Uncle Sam. (Creepy) Uncle Joe, and more. Uncle Ben, Auntie Em, Aunt May for some famous fictional ones.

It has literally nothing to do with race. For all we know, given her discovery story, the local frat boys used that term of endearment for her and Quaker went with it.

We don’t use “Sir” in this country as part of a title because that is an English knighthood title rather than an American title. Especially at that time but even today Mr and Mrs are considered formal - and it isn’t that uncommon for a man to respond with something among the lines of “Mr Is my father.”
