I find your championing of the so-called Palestinians
humorous.

This is the last nagging remnant of European conquest.

As for the Duckman, I was commenting on his
intellect, not his
degrees,
but I do enjoy some of your leaps.

He has been far more successful than you.

By your $tandard$, Paris Hilton is more successful than
Nikola
Tesla, who
died in abject poverty. I find nothing to admire about
a racist
homophobe, even if he is only playing a role acting
that way, which
I doubt.

Hey, Hitler was successful for many years, right? And
he managed to
slaughter at least 7 million people, and if he had been
more
successful,
there wouldn't have been any Jews left to hassle your
friendly
neighborhood terrorist Palestinians, eh? So how much do
you admire
Hitler?

You seem to think the noble Redman Indian, was okay being a
terrorist
against the whites, and even now they are down trodden
according to
Harry.
Substitute Palestinian for feather Indian.

Funny stuff, Bilious. Wrong, of course, and ignorant, but
funny
nonetheless.

The Redman Indian...is that a line of chewing tobacco?

Nope, that differentiates the Feather Indian from the Dot
Indian.
Neither
wrong nor ignorant. You would just take being overtaken by
submitting.

"Redman" in connection with Native Americans is a
derogatory term.

So, I suppose when Al Sharpton bellows, "I don't care if
you're White,
Red, Black, Blue or Purple", he's being derogatory to
Whites, Native
Americans, Blacks, Smurfs and Barney, huh?

The pseudo-intellectual liberals in this country have become
so obsessed
with being "politically correct" that they expect everyone
to tip-toe
around with words in fear of offending someone. It seems
like the
"taboo" words and phrases change monthly.

What's in favor this month, "Black", "Afro-American",
"African-American" or "person of color"? I never seem to
get it right.
None make too much sense except maybe "person of
color" because there
are plenty of darker skinned people who's direct ancestry
does not
originate in Africa. But "person of color seems a bit awkward.

People need to relax, get real and chill out. Just identify
people as
being cool, a jerk or an idiot. Works much better.

Right, we should just say nothing when the TV star of a
popular show
says or writes horrible things. Hey, Mr. Duck can say
whatever he
wants...he just has to realize there may be consequences.

Love the morons raising First Amendment issues. They have
nothing to do
with Mr. Duck's current problems.

It's a stupid TV show. That's all. Watch it's ratings go
through the
roof now. Don't like it? Turn it off or change the channel.

Damn, there's a hell of a lot of much worse programing that
glorifies
violence and killing in all it's gory detail. I think we
should be more
concerned on the influences on society of that instead of what
some
goofy reality show actor says.

The problem is the "star" has a huge following of morons who
when he says
hateful things about groups of people, his followers think such
behavior is ok.

If it were up to me, I'd get rid of all the moronic reality shows,
but it isn't up to me.

And we have rappers with even a larger following, that espouse
violence
against women, shooting cops and other people. Where is your
outrage?
Where is MSNBC and CNN outrage? Very selective in your
opinions! Must
follow the DNC guidelines! Where is your outrage about Blacks
using the N
word and other derogatory words? And if you say only Indian,
what group do
you think of?

I don't use the term "Indian" to refer to the peoples who were here
before the white man arrived and destroyed them.

Do you use Asian immigrants, from when they first arrived?

I don't call them "Redman Indians," or "Feather Indians." American
Indians is a term acceptable to most, along with just plain "Indians,"
unless you are referring to the Alaskans, who prefer a different
usage.

What was your derogatory term for people from India...ah..."Dot
Indians."
I presume you are referring to the bindi some people from India
have on their foreheads.

I live in an area with both type Indians. Is used to differentiate the
two. Fact is, we were at dot Indian friends house for dinner on
Tuesday.
And one of my aunt's was 1/2 Cherokee feather Indian.

So, some of your best friends are Indians, eh?

I have a few friends from India. None of them have bindi marks. So, in
your mind, they would be "dotless Indians"?

Life must be very confusing for you righties, eh?

They only wear Bindi for special occasions.

"They," your friends, or people from India generally, because if you
think the latter, you are wrong. Many people from India don't bother
with it, period. My first friend from India was a reporter who was hired
by the KC Star about the same time I was. He never wore a bindi. My wife
had a colleague from India. She never wears a bindi, either.

There are many "dotfree" people from India.

I wear a bindi. Oh wait. It's just a scar left over from shingles and
it's not exactly "between" my eyebrows. For a while there I thought I
had gained greater personal insight, but then found out I was just
hallucinating from the medication.
