Black hurricanes? hehehe have a laugh

[WhiteyClay]

Well, it appears our African-American friends have found yet something else to be pissed about. A black congresswoman, from Florida , has complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian sounding names. She would prefer some names that reflect African-America n culture such as Chamiqua, Tanisha, Woeisha, Shaqueal, and Jamal. I am NOT making this up! She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in Language that street people can understand because one of the problems that happened in New Orleans was, that black people couldn't understand the seriousness of the situation, due to the racially biased language of the weather report.

I can hear it now: A weatherman in Miami and Tampa says...

Wazzup, mutha-fukkas! Hehr-i-cane Chamiqua beheadin' fo' yo *** like Leroy on a crotch rocket!***** be a category fo'! So grab yo' chirren, yo'Ho, be leavin yo crib, and head fo' da nearestguv'ment office fo yo FREE ****!

That's halarious...

Why not learn english like the rest of us??? I'm not racist, but it would be to everyone's benefit to understand weather warnings in the national language.

I don't see a problem with hurricane names like mentioned above, but Let's keep the playing field fair, like, maybe, one from each ethnic group per year??? I don't know, it's really hard to please everyone

How about we all stop adhering to our ethnic groups like silly putty to hair and embrace the fact that we are all Americans ("excuse me" to the Canadians, Australian, and Brazilian in our midst).

If you don't like it GTFO!!!

***Side Note***

One of my biggest pet peeves is when you're required to give your race. I tell them mixed and they say "Other"? Or "which one do you consider yourself?"

Caucasian, Hispanic, & Asian! There you go, you square government worker!!!

SBD, you just undid a hundred retarded posts with that one.

Well-said, my friend.

This is just a congresswoman who is trying to get black votes. I think it's racist to make race an issue out of non-racial issues. (storm names? come on!)

...oh and I've seen this e-mail before

[Sentientbydesign]

I think it would be interesting to see how the congress woman would react if somone proposed doing away with the hurricane names all together and instead suggested something like Cat1-20080610.

I bet she'd sit down and shut up...unless she's one of the unedjumacated black women who also couldn't understand the hurricane warning lol.
