You're absolutely right, GZ. He has made increasingly bizarre comments and false statements. Consider these comments from jlallen: "There are no black Italians." [1] "There is a difference between calling Bush a chimp and calling Mrs. Obama a smelly gorilla." [2] "What if a pink elephant wanted to join the Congressional Black Caucus.....?" [3] 1. Message 27907190 2. Message 27869305 3. Message 27902200 Of course, that third comment was made in response to your direct inquiry about a Black man with Italian ancestry seeking to join The Sons of Italy. He couldn't simply say, "Yes, we would accept him as a son of Italy." He could only respond with, "What if a pink elephant wanted to join the Congressional Black Caucus.....?" This all constitutes complete proof that he is incapable of conducting a logical debate and responding with facts and sound reasoning. The fact of the matter is that there are Black Italians who could apply to join TSOI and they would be fully accepted as jlallen finally admitted yesterday. In contrast, there are Whites who have applied to join the CBC and were denied on the basis of skin color alone. Those are the facts, which takes us right back to square one. Fact: Blacks are allowed to have special Blacks-only franchises/groups. Fact: Whites are legally banned from doing so. Fact: Blacks are praised for all of their Blacks-only affiliations Fact: Whites are severely castigated if even the majority of a group is White. Note that a group does not have to be 100% White for the political and racial attacks to commence. If it is perceived that Blacks are "under-represented" to any degree in a group's population, charges of racism automatically ensue. We've all witnessed how the government scoops up thousands of Black refugees from Africa and drops them off in little White towns in rural America (e.g., Shelbyville, TN; Bangor, ME; rural Nebraska). I think the only way jlallen will finally understand reality would be if the government scooped up 1000s of impoverished Black Italians, dropped them off on the street of The Sons of Italy chapter in his town, and sent civil rights officials from the Obama administration to ensure that there were all accepted into The Sons of Italy without prejudice and that special care was taken to meet their needs. Perhaps then he would understand the gravity of multiculturalism and the error in his apologies on behalf of Obama, the left, and egalitarians.
