Nancy Grace plays the race card, and Jimmy is higher than the rent.


Oh Lawd! Nancy Grace is playing the race card:

"Let’s just say you send a black girl into that same jewelry story, or an educated person or a poor person, they come away with a $2,500 necklace, honey, and they would be thrown down on the asphalt and dragged by their feet back into the store and prosecuted."

Yes Nancy, celebrity (and a certain hue) does have its privileges here in A-merry-ca. And now that I know that you can chase the Big R a little bit you might want to ignore the ratings people sometimes and focus on the poor people and people of color who go missing.

Speaking of racism chasing, it seems that there is a certain basketball coach in Ohio who has been listening to his 2-Pac collection a little too much:

"AOL Black Voices reports that coach Jason Popp may see his entire undefeated basketball team at Richmond Heights High School in Ohio boycott the rest of their games after he allegedly used foul language and racial slurs against his players.

Many of the players are thinking about sitting out their game on Tuesday if their coach remains at the helm.

"He was like, 'Well, you guys don't go out and play n---er basketball.' He was like, 'Cause this is what they gonna expect y'all to do, play n---er basketball'," said varsity player Jordan Early.

Putting aside the obvious "Who can use the n-word?" debate and conversations about ongoing racist stereotypes about black versus white athletes and their style of play, was that honestly the best pep talk you could come up with, Coach Popp?"

Sorry coach Popp, there goes that college gig you always wanted.

Shout out to Jimmy (the rent is too damn high) McMillan for crashing the CPAC conference down in Washington. For those of you who don't know, CPAC is where the wingnuts get together to chart their political future for the upcoming elections. (And, of course, to make jokes about where the president was -or wasn't- born. And to trot out a keynote speaker who compared the president to Hitler.) Sadly, some of them won't be attending this year because there are actually going to be Gays there. Nice folks those wingnuts.

Anyway, Jimmy is a brave man. And I salute him for deciding to run on the republican ticket.--- All of you Negroes can't seek public office as dumbocrats--- "The rent is too damn high" sounds like a nice jumping off platform. But Jimmy, shouldn't you own and not rent? Especially if you are going to become a republican. Still, from what I have heard about some of your other musings, you will fit right in with the "grand old party".

Finally, I rarely give legal advice, but tonight I am going to make an exception and pass a little something on to you sperm donors out there. (I really wish I didn't have to, because you shouldn't be having kids unless you want an intact family.) Before you actually start paying your court ordered child support, (Notice I said court ordered. No emails from my feminist friends, please.) if you were not married to the child's mother when the little bundle of joy was conceived, it might be a good idea to get a DNA test. I know you are sure that you are the father, and the little guy has your eyes, but cover all your tracks before you start sending those checks. That way you won't end up like my man J-Kwon.

I'm out.
