2. Who needs signs when you have t-shirts this stupid?

[babylonsister]

4. Talk about the stoopid! Both the wearer and the maker!

:rofl: Did he pay for that?

[proud2BlibKansan]

6. Wait. You mean Maui didn't change its name?

:hide:

[babylonsister]

7. ...

10. You KNOW at least one person in that crowd saw his shirt and thought ...

"I never knew "Maui" was short for Mauitania." :P

[BattyDem]

12. Before taking their country back ...

perhaps they should think about mastering the complex art of spell checking. It would make things a lot easier, not just in governing, but in their daily lives. Regardless of their politics, I think we can all agree that we don't want to see a tragedy happen because of a "stoop" sign, especially in a "shcool" zone.

:P

13. Here! I figured it out!

Drag your mouse over the girl in the blue shirt: ¤ttag=Mbali

14. LOL!

:rofl:

She looks so sweet ... I never would have guessed that she owns slaves! :)

5. Because they don't read books he doesn't know that 'free Negroes' also owned slaves

in the South.

http://americancivilwar.com/authors/black_slaveowners.htm

28% of the freed blacks in New Orleans owned slaves



In the rare instances when the ownership of slaves by free Negroes is acknowledged in the history books, justification centers on the claim that black slave masters were simply individuals who purchased the freedom of a spouse or child from a white slaveholder and had been unable to legally manumit them. Although this did indeed happen at times, it is a misrepresentation of the majority of instances, one which is debunked by records of the period on blacks who owned slaves. These include individuals such as Justus Angel and Mistress L. Horry, of Colleton District, South Carolina, who each owned 84 slaves in 1830. In fact, in 1830 a fourth of the free Negro slave masters in South Carolina owned 10 or more slaves; eight owning 30 or more (2).

17. It doesn't get taught in school. Really.

Black owning black, white owning white, it's all kind of.... simplified.

3. Yes he is +1

8. And proud of it,too.

[BattyDem]

9. And in America, they live in the White House.

Get over it!

11. Love this comment.

"I'm just relieved he spelled "Niger" correctly."

[Turborama]

16. The comments about Haiti and the breakdown of his motive were really good, too.

I'm starting to really like Gawker, haven't been there much but it seems like they do some good articles & there's a good crowd who hang out there.

18. Just don't ask him to pronounce it...

[Beartracks]

15. LOL - I scrolled thru posts on that page; love this one:

"I'd love to know what the attendance would be at a 'Get Glenn Beck off the air' rally."

:rofl"
