Can you summarize the video?

Basically, the Fox News host is trying to bait the black guy into being upset that the NAACP didn't give him props for being black and getting elected to Senate in a place where blacks normally don't. The black guy continues to say that its cool and he isn't bothered...the host tries to prod him more, blah blah blah.

The black guy doesn't give a fuck that the NAACP isn't sending a congratulations card to his house. End of story.

Fact, because they didn't and opposed him. Why? Because he's a Uncle Tom in their eyes. Not a guy that overcame a good chance of ending up in jail because of his environment, excluding his Mom, but because he's a conservative.

Expected from the NAACP. Toe the line or else.




SHM, hope the job's going well + life in general.

Thanks. I knew it was a waste of time, I'm sorry you wasted yours.

It's funny how Pavlov's dog salivate when their masters ring the bell. I wonder how many other dogs went out and created similar threads as the OP.

Ugh.

This forum is almost entirely white, upper middle class men. It shouldn't even bother talking about race or sex issues.

Okay, now I'm all hot and bothered. Yum, women with tools!

In my one run in with the NAACP they were extremely reasonable. We had a grievance filed by a black contractor who wanted extra money to install all the circuits and devices shown on the plans. They came up, looked at the plans, and said "Brother, you don't have a case." I do think that in principle they should have congratulated him, but having campaigned against him I can understand why they did not - and why he does not care. Politically they are wholey owned by the Dems; why pretend otherwise?

NAACP isn't an organization for African americans, its an organization for democrats. Tim Scott is off the reservation, because in the NAACP's mind African americans can only be democrats.

This. The NAACP is supposed to advocate for black people, but examples like this show they advocate for black people only when it coincides with the democratic party and/or liberal goals. In other words their primary goal appears to be to support a democrat agenda first, rather than supporting "advancement of colored people" as the organization name would imply.

You see this situation with women's groups like NOW as well. They pretend to support women, but if a woman happens to not toe the (democratic) political party line, NOW turns against that woman in a heartbeat.

Yup. As said, it's just a branch of the Democrat party that hasn't *really* been of any relevance (including in Civil Rights issues) since the 1960's.

No one really cares what they think about anything, least of all any minority that isn't down on their little Democrat-run plantation.

How surprising, a democrat shill organization hostile to someone who's not on board with their liberal stupidity. Shocking I tell you!

This is true politically, but the NAACP still does black-centric work in other areas. In my example they provided muscle for black subcontractors in disputes, although thankfully they were colorblind on the legitimacy of the dispute. They also work projects to improve black outcomes in the legal system, work on registering (and motivating) blacks to vote (which admittedly is totally on behalf of the Dems), work on equality in educational opportunity (the NAACP is one of the forces behind getting the top 10% of every high school admitted into college, so that blacks trapped in failing inter-city schools can still get into college by working hard even if they have no way to earn the necessary SAT scores, as well as black-only scholarships), and work on forcing diversity into fields where blacks are underrepresented. Amusingly, that last often includes liberal-dominated fields such as academia, the media, and Hollywood.

To a great extent the NAACP has become the NAALCP, but they still have some legitimate roles.

Don't know about Sherman. What did he do? Thug stuff?



Met Scott a couple of months back at a dinner the wife was holding. Seems like a nice guy. His campaign ads were the only ones that weren't negative, bashing the opponent. He owns an Allstate agency and part of a real estate company.

He told a story about totaling his mom's car when he was a teenager. Cop pulls up and starts looking for the bodies because it was that bad. Finds out Scott was the driver, looks at the car, looks at Scott and says, "Your Mom is going to be glad to see you." Scott said, "You don't know my Mom." :D
