Christ really did die in vain. He must be suffering more than he ever did on the cross.

We perhaps need one of those Truth and Reconciliation Commissions, probably modelled after the one in South Africa, where people like Instapunk can speak and then we all examine the consequences of those errors, and then perhaps people leave feeling less fearful and less racist.

This, however, requires the faith that people can stare down their own prejudices and bigotry and change.

"Punk" has every right to be annoyed. But he's just scared because he doesn't know them, and he doesn't realize that his fear colors his response. None of them do. Yet the next step for them in manly posturing and verbal aggression.

Punk has no "right" to be annoyed. He or she can be annoyed to whatever degree his or her ire or neuroses dictates but black folks don't share any degree of responsibility for those feelings. There are plenty of black people in the cities, towns, boroughs and townships of Pennsylvania for Punk to know that the overwhelming majority of them do not dress or act like thugs. This sort of information does not have to be gleaned from getting to know black people - whatever that means - but simply looking around when going through daily life such as buying groceries.

Just read some of his statements.

Racial Intolerance

The War Between the States was about independence, about self-determination, about the right of a people to break free of a government to which they could no longer give allegiance. How long is this endless groveling before every cry of "racism" going to continue before the whole country collectively throws up?

-- Pat Buchanan, accusing someone of "putting on an act" by associating the Confederacy with slavery, July 28, 1993

There were no politics to polarize us then, to magnify every slight. The "negroes" of Washington had their public schools, restaurants, bars, movie houses, playgrounds and churches; and we had ours.

-- Pat Buchanan, when discussing race relations in the 1950s, in Right from the Beginning, Buchanan's 1988 autobiography

We were among Hoover's conduits to the American people.

-- Pat Buchanan, who was caught publishing FBI anti-Martin Luther King Jr. propaganda as his own editorials in the St Louis Globe Democrat in the mid-1960s, in Right from the Beginning, Buchanan's 1988 autobiography

[For President Nixon to visit King's widow on the anniversary of King's assassination because it would] outrage many, many people who believe Dr. King was a fraud and a demagogue and perhaps worse.... Others consider him the Devil incarnate. Dr. King is one of the most divisive men in contemporary history.

-- Pat Buchanan, while working as a White House adviser to Nixon, reported in the New York Daily News, October 1, 1990

Take a hard look at [KKK leader David] Duke's portfolio of winning issues and expropriate those not in conflict with GOP principles [such as] reverse discrimination against white folks.

-- Pat Buchanan, February 25, 1989

There is nothing wrong with us sitting down and arguing that issue that we are a European country.

-- Pat Buchanan, Newsday, November 15, 1992

How, then, can the feds justify favoring sons of Hispanics over sons of white Americans who fought in World War II or Vietnam?

-- Pat Buchanan, discussing affirmative action, January 23, 1995

An across-the-board assault on our Anglo-American heritage.

-- Pat Buchanan, describing multiculturalism, when speaking before the Christian Coalition in 1993

Anti-Democracy

Like all idolatries, democratism substitutes a false god for the real, a love of process for a love of country.

-- Pat Buchanan, 1990

You just wait until 1996, then you'll see a real right-wing tyrant.

-- Pat Buchanan, just before he announced his candidacy for the 1996 presidential election in 1995, quoted from Political Amazon's "Quotes from Hell"

Hannity's Soul-Mate of Hate

Max Blumenthal in the Nation, 2005, on those two pals Hannity and Turner

http://www.thenation.com/doc/20050620/blumenthal

I live in D,C., and used to live in New York City and I see appalling, antisocial behavior by young black people, mostly young black men.

When I spent some time in rural Pennsylvania, I saw appalling, antisocial behavior by young white people, mostly young white men.

What underlies much of the appalling, antisocial behavior one sees on the street is poverty and ignorance. In major cities, the impoverished often include a high percentage of black people. In rural areas, the impoverished often include a high percentage of white people. Location has a lot to do with the skin color of the local antisocial yahoos.

But of course, let us keep in mind that their is appalling, antisocial behavior of the vulgar, street-level kind -- which most of us deal with every day, and thus are often most outraged about -- and appalling, antisocial behavior of the sophisiticated, boardroom and political office kind. The latter demonstrates that just as having too little money and power can turn people into assholes, so too can having too much money and power.

Try googling sometime. It's good for you.

Where has the outrage been when GOP figures have gone to kiss the ring of Bob Jones, et al. in the past. The Farrakhan, Wright, etc. "stories" originated with Limbaugh and company. Somehow, we need to build a buzz that elevates the wingnut religious figures--their most outrageous quotes and the need for "balance" and a questioning of whether the media's occasional mention of these paleos qualifies as such.

People like Instapunk likely troll around looking for people to hate and things to be outraged about, disgusted by ... they are his reason for being. Sometimes it's fear of the "other." Anger at the young for being young has been around for a long time too. There is particular anger and fear of minorities who show no interest in "assimilation," though only those old enough to remember the "melting pot" model can remember the black and brown pride/power movements and just how they shifted the landscape of expectations.

At least in Los Angeles, baggy pants were a sign of pride/defiance and/or open gang affliation going back to the 1940s and the Zoot Suit wearing Hispanics... They were banned in my junior high school in the early 1960s even though gang activity was pretty low level (my school was probably half black and hispanic)

Whether viewed as a "cultural phenomenon" or "organized crime", like the mafia, the unapologetic nature of gangs and gang members really pisses off the "establishment" ... like Marlon Brando in The Wild One, it's not hard to imagine losing that pissing contest.

I have my doubts as to just how effective "talking about race" is. In my experience, most people do not believe their are racist but, paradoxically, will quickly blame the "other guy" for any racist sentiments they do hold. There is no curiosity about the "others," just dark suspicions. Much as between liberals and conservatives.

Michael Moore's Bowling for Columbine segment on how the news deals with crime, if it bleeds it leads, is always worth a second look. I strongly suspect millions of americans have virtually no contact with "the others" on a daily basis, except from behind the safety glass of their vehicle... virtually all they think they "know" comes from television ...

And, then of course, there is the guilt.
