The Field Negro: Pro Life?



Hey, notice something in that picture I have up there? Take your time, I will give you a minute or two to look at it................Did you look? What did you notice? If you said that the main protesters at the Pro-Life anti Obama protest in South Bend are all men; go to the head of the class.

I always thought that if it were men who were given the unenviable task of carrying babies for nine months, that there would be drive-through abortion clinics. I guarantee you that the world would be an empty fucking place. So my views when it comes to this abortion debate is pretty simple: Since I can't have babies, and I don't have to carry the little crumb snatchers in my stomach for nine months, I figure I have no say in the matter. Period!

1. most of them only cared for today
since the majority dont actually give enough shit to go out into the world and fight against this thing they proclaim to hate so much...

they also dont care that others have spoken at the university who have caused loss of life, yet now we are supposed to care they are taking a stand?

just a bunch bored self righteous people who had an issue dropped conveniently into their laps... half of them wont protest anything ever again in their entire lifes... that would require pre-thought and planning.

4. Very good point indeed.
There has never been any shortage of people who are eager to decide what others should do to fuck up their lives.

But why are they carrying an advertisement for Depends?

7. Those 'fet bess-tids' don't have to worry about this issue. They just WISH they did.
No one's going to give them the opportunity to angst over someone aborting their offspring (if they could even fire their little pistols)--I don't think anyone would fuck those bastards for money!

Even prostitutes have standards, I would imagine.

11. Malcolm X on the Field Negro and the House Negro
"That house negro loved his master. But that field negro, remember, they were in the majority, and they hated their master. When the house caught on fire, he didn't try to put it out, that field negro prayed for a wind. For a breeze. When the master got sick, the field negro prayed that he die'd. If someone come to the field negro and said 'Let's separate, let's run.' He didn't say 'Where we going?' he said 'Any place is better than here'. We got field negros in America today. I'm a field negro. The masses are the field negros. When they see this mans house on fire, we don't hear these little negros talkin bout 'Our Government is in trouble. They say thee Government is in trouble.' Imagine a negro, "Our Government".


~~Malcolm X~~
