This is being reported out of the U.K. of all places. Short version is a white girl wins homecoming queen at a black college in Virginia... and the black students are outraged that this could possibly happen. All I can think of is if this were the other way around, brother Jesse and the Reverend Al would be all over this.

    YAY!!! Another thread dedicated to how much everything and everyone sucks!! You grab the pitchforks and I'll grab the torches.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Looks like a man.

    Maybe this thread and the other thread about the 8 year old girl should be combined?


    And look at the sheer disgust on the faces of the two to the right. Amazing.

    "Nikole Churchill, who is Hawaiian " ....maybe some Keiko pie is in order for verification :D


    " Richmond, VA (1140wrva.com) – Miss Hampton University now says she blew comments made about her race out of proportion, and she apologizes for writing to President Obama asking to come to Hampton to speak about racial tolerance. Nikole Churchill, who is Hawaiian, is the first non-African-American to receive the honor.

    Churchill says she faced some comments after being named Miss Hampton University. She now says she believes Hampton embraces diversity, and she says students, for the most part, have been supportive. "

    I can't comment on Hampton, but 10 years ago, when I lived in Norfolk, you could qualify for minority status if you were white. Get a 4 year degree paid for and help w/ expenses, if you went to Norfolk university.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    I'm all for it, she won fair and square. Sistahs need to stop the hate and congratulate.

    And this is coming from a true playa; Playa from the Himalayas !!

    No racism here gents, as I said fair is fair. If she won by vote, judging, most chocolate bars sold, hell it was fair game and she came out on top. When I was in the Marines, I was told everyone was GREEN everyone looks the same.

    Quick question for you guys:

    If I were to place my nuts on this girls chest, would they then become chestnuts?

    Yeah, even though she had a manly quality about her...she was the better option over that muttly crew of sistahs :D Now if there would have been a sistah of say Vanessa Williams quality (Even at 45 years old , I'd take her over those youngins ) the munster quality winner wouldnt of had a chance. Like you said...fair is fair...skin color doesnt have a damn thing to do with it...either you have it or you don't..simple as that.

    I had the pleasure of spending Sat and Sun with a group of 9 marines ( 3 of which just came back from Afganistan ) in Nevada at a machinegun shoot...some white...some black...some mexican....but it was all green talk during the 2 days ( But none of them spoke very highly of " Haji " ...they all used that term instead of taliban ? I hadnt heard any civilians use that term, but it was pretty popular during the weekend. )

    I've got to say, last weekend was like living in a video game...not only were the toys fun to play with ( The pinnacle of the weekend was getting to shoot the M134 MiniGun....the worlds fastest machinegun @ 3,000 rounds a minute...words can't even describe it :) ) but the marines were cool as hell...instead of the usual dickhead rangmasters that seem to be attracted to run public ranges after the police force didnt want them...these group of guys knew we were experienced and let us have at it on the range. Here is Jesse shooting the M134....I have video of me shooting it as well...who hosts avi's well ?
