Is this racist?
September 14, 2009 – 10:39 am | by JesseSubmitted for your (non?)approval. A video of some impersonators in Japan. The first Michael Jackson, you can hear his Japanese accent coming through and his facial features don’t work. The second is a Japanese guy pretending to be Louis Armstrong. With black makeup.
I saw this video posted on a forum(not saying which one) and one of the very first comments was something akin to “OMG BLACKFACE! HOW RACIST”. It always makes me laugh when an offended person is offended for another persons race. like it’s their duty to keep the word clean of things that might potentially offend someone different from them.
There is a world of difference between the video, and this…
No one has asked for the video to come down. That would be a shame.

Probably more than likely I’m willing to bet good money he did not. 
Massachusetts Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy (D) has passed away from complications from cancer while still in office. NPR and other outlets are practically worshiping him on the airwaves right now with constant stories of all these wonderful laws he passed and health insurance reform for Massechusetts (statewide universal care). But there are few facts that I think people need to remember about this man.
I in no way would ever do or say anything to dishonor the actual members of the American military. They do a perfectly good job themselves sometimes. Do not mistake what I just wrote as a blanket statement about every single member of the military throughout history as you would also be wrong. I am merely saying that I morally disaprove actions that involve killing people.
