New Fuel Source? (Warning-- post contains political incorrectness.)

This is wrong on many levels, but I couldn't help but chuckle.

I don't care if it's not PC. I liked it. Politically Incorrect will love it.

[onlyme]

Politically incorrect is one thing, blatant racism is another altogether. This is nothing but sick.

[dollfus46]

She's not making fun of legals. Just illegals. It's funny Mac.

This coming from someone who supposedly believes in Christian values. Now that's "funny". :eusa_sick

[mac]

Seems riding that high horse has your panties in a wad. Relax. It's a joke.

[Conveyor Belt]

It just someone taking the satire about eating the Irish children and turning it into Mexicans for fuel.

Aaaaaaaaand what do you know about Christian values? ;)

Hyperbole? I find no racism much less "blatant" racism here. I find it more taking a poke at our worthless politicians who can't seem to figure out what to do with the illegals pouring into our country unchecked. :-D

I think its quite a modest proposal.

Unless Mac and Dollfus are Mexican - and though I don't know them I have a hunch that they aren't - that comparison is lacking.

Enough to spot hypocrites.

I couldn't for the life of me remember what that article was called.

Chavez would prolly market this under Citgo.

Luckily, you won't be the One judging me and you aren't the one who knows my heart, paquita.

what the heck does a ballet have to do wih mexinol?

Oh yeah? Well I AM a Mexican! So there!





Now everything I say is true and fair and just. (Or at least people will be scared to suggest that it isn't, right?)

I recommend a trip to a concentration camp. Noone who has seen the ovens and experienced the sense of evil and pain that hangs over the place can ever find anything remotely funny in this "joke" no matter how hard you stomp your foot and cry " so there".

I think that's taking it a bit too far... I don't think that was the intended purpose of the satire. If it was, then it's worse than it appears. But, I never thought that.

Illegal aliens have always been a problem in the United States. Ask any Indian.

I don't care who you are, THAT'S HILARIOUS right there. - Dollfus:bowrofl:

Now just were would we find concentration camps and ovens over here where Old Glory is flown? Are you talking about the one's in Germany?

Of course she is, dollfus. She's from GERMANY. :smt105

[hendrixfreak70]

My question is are there any camps and ovens LEFT in Germany? You are all talking like they are still putting people in ovens. There is not one ethnicity or race that has not been subjected to torture, enslavement, and ridicule. I am Irish and native American. I kinda get a double dose of it but I don't lose sleep over it.

[dollfus46]

I disagree. Poking fun, satire, whatever, at a bad situation can be an effective tool in fighting such. We just look at it differently. I found some satire on Saturday Night Live to be funny and some not so funny. Depends on how you feel about a situation. George Lopez, the comedian, takes no prisoners and pokes fun at every race. He's immensely popular. Sad that the only people who can laugh at themselves these days are WASPS. Ever notice that? Every black and Mexican comedian seems poke fun at WASPS and we laugh louder than anyone. People need to chill out, I think.

[dollfus46]

I know. That was tongue in cheek Fuzzis. Geez, I can't take time to stop and 'splain all my good stuff everytime. :smt118 I'm sure she's familiar with the surname, Dollfus, in Germany. It was the same backhanded slap back that she took at me with the hypocrite remark. :smt105 The Old Glory was intentional too. We need to be able to debate without the personal attacks. You know I can be as nice and accomodating as anyone here until someone gets personal. If she wants to throw down the gauntlet, I'll dayum sure pick it up. Stay on topic and everything will be hunky dory.:smt023

I think Germany sold them to the Irish at a good price.

It's the way I see it and that's why I consider it to be in very bad taste. If one sees an industrial complex and a reference to burning humans ( "a clean burning cheap alternative to gasoline" ) the connection is not so far-fetched.

[onlyme]

Yes. And does it matter where they are? Is history only relevant if it happens in your own country?

I don't lose sleep either. This is, after all, just a message board, meant for some more or less serious discussions, banter etc. I just pointed out that I found nothing funny whatsoever about the "joke", that's all. If one does not want to read any comments, one should not post in a public forum ;)

[amanda]

All righty now, everybody - breathe. It was a joke, some don't take some jokes well regarding certain subjects, now everybody be nice. Don't make me drag out the whip. :smt079 Although I know it would turn a few of you on.

Now how do you know that? :kekeke:

Sure it matters where Jews were NOT gassed. We have our own shameful past we are dealing with. Are you all paying jews reparations? Have affirmative action to atone for your sins? Do you have Miss Jewish Germany pageants? Jewish Pride Month? Jewish Entertainment Television? Tsk tsk. We're much more civilized, touchy/feely than Germany. :-D

[nooskye]

look ... a baby bear :-D ...

aren't there some WWII gas chambers left out on Shelby??? i'm not sure if they work any longer or not ... but they were still there back in 96 when i graduated from ycp .. we did 5 mile runs out thata way :D
