Smashing watermelons is racist

Here's that silver tongued orator, Shannon Sharpe, telling us how smashing watermelons is racist. I remember when Gallagher would smash watermelons on stage and his audience paid to see it, they even knew it was coming because the front row had plastic wrap to protect them from the splattered juice.

How times change.

Here's Sharpe telling us how watermelons are somehow associated with blacks, but if anyone says watermelons are associated with blacks they're a racist.

Anyway, this is just another thing to add to the loooooooooooong list of things that are racist.

Oh, is this more or less racist than a soldering iron?

So much for that game.

 

This is the complete bind they create for themselves.

To say they rarely consider the implications of their berserker ideas is an understatement. They NEVER consider the implications.

 

Smashing pumpkins is a waste of money.

 

I love watermelons and can eat a whole one by myself. I also like fried okra (African native plant) and BBQ ribs. Am I a racist -- well if you think I am then you are actually the racist for associating my taste buds with skin color. What would you say if I like spaghetti?

 

And we're supposed to care what celebrities/athletes have to say now? When did that change? And for the record....Sharpe is a buffoon.

 

Certain people ought not be on TV or any other medium.

 

I don't even know who that is, but if it is so obvious why don't more moderate people speak up and tell these people to stop crying wolf? It's these petty accusations of racism that muddy the water when actual racism occurs. These people are doing a disservice to the black community and it should be called out by moderates and those on the left.

 

LOL... wow. Shannon has so many other things to be angry about. Like his career...

 

You know his name now so I assume you'll be calling him to let him know he should stop crying wolf?

 

I'm a "trumpster". Me calling him wold probably be deemed racist. Hell, me even talking about him on this forum is probably racist. Why doesn't the left care? That is my question that you didn't answer.

 

Right, because somehow Sharpe would know you're a Trumper??? And you really think Sharpe cares what you or I have to say? I suspect the Left "doesn't care" about what a celeb/athlete has to say for the same reason the Right doesn't care what a celeb/athlete has to say.

 

I think Shannon just out Coselled Cosell....I can't think of a more racist comment since "look at that monkey run".. Shannon. The new benchmark in sports racism.

 

Yes they do are you kidding me? If this same guy said something negative about BLM the left would be swarming him. But instead he just diluted the accusation of racism which the left is commonly known for so they "don't care". Look if you really care about racism, you should be calling this crap out. Otherwise people like me are going to continue to just roll our eyes when people claim racism. I'm sure you don't care about me but there are millions of other people like me so maybe you should care about them.

 

So again....you're going to call Sharpe, right?
I don't give a rats ass what any celeb/athlete thinks. I don't give a crap what you think, no offense but I just don't care what people, who I don't know, think. People are going to think what they want and no amount of me or you telling them not to is going to change it. Seriously, you think Sharpe is going to change the way he thinks because of you telling him not to think that way?

 

Not until you mention Chicken, at that point you've crossed the line

 

After 4 years, you just now figured that out ? Lol

 

LOL -- I forgot, and I love fried chicken.
--When my son was an infant and had yet to cut his teeth his pediatrician recommended to give him a drumstick bone. That little racist rascal loved gumming on that chicken bone.

 

But it's their money...

 

Are there any other fruits/veg you can smash and NOT be a racist? How did one idiot lay claim to an entire line of fruit for black people?

 

I dunno they were pretty good back in the day....

 

Closer to four decades of leftist nonsense. But I have been fortunate to have noted it as such rather than be swept along with it.

 

Because White Progressives truly believe that Blacks are "the White Mans Burden" and as such MUST be told how to be PROPER Blacks. No independent thinking allowed.

 

What's funny is that black Democrats don't actually like white Democrats. And white Democrats think black Democrats are inferior. They just use each other to their own selfish ends and don't care about anything else.

 

Oh, you said the C word. Had you said Fried C, that'd be the equivalent of a triple dog dare, which is a place one just does not go on a whim.
