"He who dares not offend cannot be honest." -Thomas Paine
--Disclaimer-- Highly offensive material listed
Is anyone aware of this subculture known as ghetto bragging rights?
I feel these items need more attention due to the seriousness. I feel it is necessary to either authenticate this movement and push back or make a determination that is just a front for white supremacists. Either way, it is the most vile issue I have ever looked into. Some of the more revolting items I have gleaned are...
...Along with a variety of protests which may include theatrical home invasions, carjackings, strong armed robberies & purse snatchings to protest the citys institutionalized black poverty & corrupt political criminal justice, blacks wil also continue the 'dont' PISS IN SAVANNAHS STREETS campaign that began in May.
...Publishing supports the G__ D_mn America Movement & encourages you to see the dates and participate.
...Whats your carjacking dream ? There only four listed here. Get published & earn Ghetto Bragging Rights! From either the perspective of the carjacker or carjackee, submit your fantasy carjacking dream and be our 5th virtual victim or jacker! If your submission is the best, youll earn $25.00 worth of Ghetto Bragging Rights Credits!
...One of the best documented cases is the 2005 Christmas Eve slaying of Savannah, Georgias debutante sweetheart Jennifer Ross. It is alleged, until her slaying, Ross was part of a circle of affluent whites who played Privileged White Flaunt shamelessly.

Is this real? Are these sites legit? Are they front sites for white supremacists in order to foment hate? Are they meant to convey a possible legal defense for the perps once they commit a crime? Could their message be legally construed akin to yelling fire in theater? Why are we being told by the left that we only have rites to firearms as per the judgement of our local governments (NY and Chi-town) when we have these perversions occurring daily and very little being done? These items are all based on seriously tragic and perverted crimes that seem to be racially motivated, however that is not broached in the MSM. I thought that the States and the Fed recently passed hate-crime legislation but these crimes are nonchalantly passed off as mere random crimes of opportunity. Is this raft of info on the web pointing to a growing trend? I simply don't know. Any info would be appreciated.
I don’t think I’d brag about being from a ghetto..................
What if you worked your butt off, played by the rules and made a success of yourself? Wouldn't you be proud to say that you overcame the odds?

From Sept 11, 2001, New York Times article/interview with Obama associate and friend, William/Bill Ayers.
Article title: "No Regrets for a Love Of Explosives; In a Memoir of Sorts, a War Protester Talks of Life With the Weathermen"
"Ayers, who in 1970 was said to have summed up the Weatherman philosophy as:
'Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that's where it's really at,' is today distinguished professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
Especially with Section 8. They have ruined one school near me. Habitat helps destroy the rest.
These are the constituents of Obama whether anyone likes it or not and this is what America will have to deal with if Obama is elected.
Yes, it’s real. It’s a hate and kill Whitey site. I happened on it by accident. Clean your computer hard drive and do an exorcism after viewing.
They have never had to deal with the reality of having the melon of the homey standing next to them erupt into a fine pink mist, and the body hit the ground before they even hear the report of the rifle shot. That is a whole different game, and one that they are ill prepared to join.
That name sets of all kinds of alarm bells for me.
Anyone who likes to call themselves an "intellectual" is usually an over-educated, arrogant, patronizing, totally-lacking-in-common-sense boor with no sense of humor. Not that I dislike them, or anything.

But it also shows that he, Bill Ayers and Bernardine are basically on the same page together. I doubt if he argued any with them during the conference. In other words, it didn't appear to be a debate, but rather a get-together of like-minded people, "activists" and "theorists" as they described it. Ahhh (bell goes off in my head), but wouldn't it be great to find a TRANSCRIPT for the event? Ya hear me out there??? First one who finds one gets a FREE 24x36 wall photo of Michelle Obama!
11Bush:
You are so right. All these so-called “men” seem to attack percieved helpless people; mostly young white women it would seem. I couldn’t find one who had the nerve to try this in Texas. Girl just might show him the end of a gun he has never seen, and it might be the last thing he ever sees.
Last few carjackings I read about in Texas ended the wrong way for the bad guys. Not exactly any “ghetto bragging rights” in that outcome!
Something is terribly wrong...
and we all keep hearing about white racists...
seems similar to the stuff preached in wright’s church every Sunday.
Pathetic!!!
I had these same thoughts when I came across "underprivlegedjournalism" in a search for news concerning the Pin Oak Levee in Winfield, Missouri. It had these putative black activists praying for the white people to be wiped out, etc.
After my initial shock, I thought, as you mentioned, that it could be white supremacists, or that ilk, trying to stir up trouble, but when you look at the associated blogs and commentary, that doesn't seem to fly. The site is definitely satirical, I should say, as the cited activist personalities, such as "Elohim Balial", are assuredly fictional. ( If not, I withdraw my commments! ) But the question to me is the AIM of the satire. There really does seem to be an undercurrent that says, "Why not go all the way?" ... Puzzling evidence.
