Seems like drunk talk.

Alright, what's the source of this gif?

What is the purpose of using the "best friends" statement after using one of the most heinous terms in the English language?

 

[GaimeGuy]

"our forefathers created" is just another way of saying he thinks the white house should only be white.

The funny thing is he probably thinks "Our forefathers" were just like him - the everyman, sticking up for themselves against the most powerful individuals of the time.

In reality they were some of the wealthiest and well-connected aristocrats of the western world - they just didn't have much political clout because there was no way to communicate with or participate in parliament in a timely manner - the mere act of communicating with the central authorities in Britain took months. You think parliament would make a proposal, then spend a year waiting to relay information to the colonies and to listen to the colonies' grievances, before coming to a final decision? Of course not.

Going by this past year alone, Missouri is probably outdoing Florida

 

[Bold One]

its been a banner week for racism.

 

[Bear]

Have people really not heard the "some of my best friends" line in real life? It's right up there with "I'm not racist but..."

I just think it's funny that he used the line while talking to a former Aryan Nation member.

I'm pretty sure everyone has heard that line. It's amazing because he doesn't seem to realize that he incorporated a grotesquely racist term in a common claim that's used by people to "prove" they aren't racist. That's where the reactions in here are coming from.

I'm not sure where you got the impression that people haven't heard the line before. It wouldn't be very funny to someone who doesn't know the intended meaning.

"That nigger shouldn’t be President," Stout allegedly told the informant, adding that "some of my best friends have been niggers."

Holy fuck. This is incredible. I'm imagining a comedy sketch where you have Klansmen literally plotting to kill the President because he's black but constantly trying to justify themselves as not being racist.

The online video posted above is almost exactly that.

Someone said, "He literally used the "some of my best friends" line." I may have mixed this up with another thread while switching back and forth from working.

Is there a pattern of people going extra racist after Black history month? Its as if the racists are working overtime to make up for what little progress has been made.

 

[Nightbird]

It's okay People, he has black Friends. I'm sure they allowed him to say this!

I wonder if it's anything like the death deferral phenomenon? Call it the racism deferral phenomenon?

 

[EdibleKnife]

It's okay People, he has black Friends. I'm sure they allowed him to say this!

I'm sure he gave his assassination plans to them for proofreading as well. Not everything is about race, guys.

 

[Extra Sauce]

Wow. He literally used the "some of my best friends" line. I'm impressed.

People usually end that sentence with "...are black" though. His version sounds like something you would hear in a comedy sketch.

 

[The Lamp]

I laughed big time at the "best friends" line. I'm sure his "friends" love it when he calls them "n*****s."

 

[BeatnikGunsoo]

"He just needs some love"

[Enzom21]

Black people should show him some kindness... I hear that's how black people are supposed to fix racism.

 

[SimleuqiR]

"He just needs some love"

In prison? I'm sure some guy will...love...him.

 

[Dryk]

Using the n-word and involving the Aryan Nation. This is some next level black friends shit.

 

[Acorn]

"some of my best friends are niggers" Wtf? Friends line and a slur racist fuck bingo.

 

[Dai101]

"some of my best friends have been niggers."

Cameron Stout

Well, I certainly did quite the double-take at that; that's the name of the winner of one of the series of UK Big Brother (who was a fairly quiet and unassuming chap and vastly different from this one!)

 

[giga]

Alright, what's the source of this gif?

 

[Zantetsuken]

its been a banner week for racism.

About every week for several decades now my friend.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Even in the company of a guy he thinks is in the Aryan Nation, he still doesn't want to seem like a racist.

This can't be said better.

 

[newjeruse]

That lawyer sure asks a lot of questions.

 

[Vermillion]

"That nigger shouldn’t be President," Stout allegedly told the informant, adding that "some of my best friends have been niggers."

That's really how people sound sometimes lol

 

[Chie Satonaka]

He just needed more love

Damnit Labor, I wanted this to be my thing. ; ;

 

[Link]

Frankly, I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. The Republican Party has become dangerous. There's a lot of extremist views and vitriolic hyperbole toward Obama being peddled.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Damnit Labor, I wanted this to be my thing. ; ;

Don't worry, everyone needs to give love for it to work

♪Spread love, dop da-dap♪

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

"He just needs some love"

-Common

I want to be so rich racism can't even touch me.

 

[Sol1dus]

His use of the N word reminds me of the first episode of Blackish. The main character walks in and goes oh yeah that guy's my brother. And then this dude that pretends to be black is super racist without even realizing it and the main character goes "yeah, he's not"

 

[pa22word]

This will be the shame of my generation. Not this one individual's idiocy, but the overal response to Obama in general. It's kind of weird thinking like this, because it's one of the first time's I can look back and see this type of thing. Like I was too young for 9/11 and the aftermath like iraq and afganistan, but I voted for Obama and such, so I can and have participated in discussions and theory regarding his policy and presidency as a whole, and shit like this just...ugh..

I just can't shake the feeling that in 40 years I'm going to be explaining to my grandkids why we all acted like such shitheads atm just like my grandfather has to explain to me why he thought voting for Nixon seemed like "a good idea at the time".

 

[FrenchToastDisciple]

Life imitating the Onion.

First thing I thought of. The shit in the video when it cuts to him being hauled away in handcuffs while wearing the traditional African clothing is one of the funniest things ever in context.

 

[ScottSullivan]

You'd think if you were gonna go the racist, purification angle like that, having the gaul to admit everything to the feds like that, that you wouldn't temper it with the black friends line wow

I just think it's funny that he used the line while talking to a former Aryan Nation member.

I think it is more the fact that he said it while using the word 'nigger'. That's just incredible.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Saying the n-word, calling friends the n-word, threatening to shoot a black man...are we sure this guy isn't black?

 

[mazpratim]

LOL I wish all racists would be this honest

 

[NYR94]

What crazy thing will Florida Man do in response?

 

[Furyous]

That forefathers bit .. they keep using it ...
I don't think it means what they think it means..

Let them use it because it's self-induced soul burning permanent ether. Don't they realize their entire family are immigrants?

Why should i extend my hand in love to "these people" as Lonnie Lynn suggests I do? LOL at free speech condoning murder of the President of the United States of America.

Finally, this is the outcome of growing up with that Fox News bullshit. Seriously, the Fox News Distortion Field is something to behold. All of this makes me paranoid for a DMZ-type situation at some point.

 

[Beerman462]

What crazy thing will Florida Man do in response?

Shoot king Obama

 

[whipihguh]

I'm still baffled at how people can get this hateful and bonkers.
