Yes, Virginia, There is a David Duke...

...and he lives in Massachusetts.

Some people on Worcester, Massachusetts Craigslist's Rants & Raves section have a problem with this being Black History Month. Every time I put up a post defending Black History Month (as if I should have to) while reminding people of what Mighty Whitey has done for them, not only do my posts immediately get taken down, rejoinders like this replace them and stay up.

Keep in mind, this is an actual post and was actually written today in Massachusetts, supposedly one of the most enlightened and bluest states in the Union (outside of Roslindale, where Jim Crow went to die) which is where this racist asswipe who fancies himself Rudyard Kipling's second coming lives. As proof that I did not make this up, here's the original URL. It's entitled, I shit you not, "White History Month."

Slavery? The evil white man is responsible for slavery. Look up the violent history of African and you will see where white folks got the idea from. Africa has had a LONG, LONG, LONG history of slavery....Even back to the days of when the Moors were conquering the middle east, and I can say with certainty anything the white folks did during the time of slavery would of looked like a Godsend compared to the slavery of Africa. Black people used to trade and sell other black people. It's not only a white thing. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Why is America all about white history? Look at the founding fathers, White. America is a white culture that focuses on white history beacuse we have a white past. You wouldn't go to Africa and expect them to change their school curriculum to focus on white people because they are a black society. Out government is a white government solely built to better the white people, same with a german government; it is designed to better german people....Same with a chinese government. The whole idea of co-existing does not work. Sorry to burst your bubble. Look at a party or even when you went to highschool. Black people mainly stuck together as a group, Brazillians stuck together as a group, white people stuck together as a group. It is not a reflection on the devil white man.....it is an instinctual habit. People stick to their own kind and EVERY one wants to be the "top dog". We as humans are built on competition and want to be number one. The majority of society is white, see where I am going with this? White people want to help white people, black people want to help black people...... Unfortunately the idea of a perfect melting pot will never work, it can't.

You really want me to get you fired up? Look at Africa, the tribes in the jungles that have still been untouched by the white man. They are living in mudhuts wearing leotards. Are there any white communities ANYWHERE in the world that are living that primitive? It seems white people are smarter, even the most remote parts of Australia have some sort of running water and means of outside communication. But not in those primitive tribes of black men and women, they have not evolved past the ways of a basic society. Science is a white man's achievement. The black man should be thanking us for introducing them to the benefits of the white man's inventions. All they are good for is playing sports; that will really help out society. PROVIDE US WITH ENTERTAINMENT! leave the tricky stuff to the hard working white man.

Sounds like something Neil Boortz would write if he was on mescaline and purple microdot.

Got that? Birds of a feather flock together; niggers in "African" thought up slavery all on their lonesome so if they do it, so can we; Them there darkies ain't good for nothing but running and entertaining (they can also tap dance, doncha know?); they wore leotards in Africa (remember, they can all dance) they should just get the fuck out of the way and let the white man take up his burden doing the real impoh-tant stuff. Ordinarily, I would've taken this down as bottomlessly offensive but this contains such a distillation of pure, concentrated, Strom Thurmond-class of inbred, ass-backwards, down home, sitting in the outhouse, good ole boy racism that it really has to stay up to remind those of us who don't walk on our knuckles how little we've come since the Civil War.

God damn, boy, can't you just hear the grits sizzling on the griddle while the banjo plays softly in the background? YEE-haw!
