I think we need to send them a petition on that one.

How about one with an intact, church-going normal family with a loving Mom & Dad and some sweet kids. The Dad could be a well respected community man and the patriarch of the clan, always looked to by the kids with respect and adoration. How about we name it “Father Knows Best”?

I’ll watch that one. The audience will end up rooting for Bubba.

“What’s a Billion Dollars?” (Reality Show) Follow the agents of the EEA (Everything Enforcement Agency) as they search the Unites States of the Whole World (it’s in their charter) for The Red Menace. The nature of The Red Menace changes with each episode (or edict, if you prefer), but after the the twitching stops, the dust settles, and the paperwork for damages submitted...what’s a billion dollars in the name of Freedumb?

“GUN FREE ZONE”


I’ll help you flesh out your proposal.

Gun Free Zone takes place in an urban public high school, where a bumbling unarmed security guard, a politically correct female school principal, and a beloved gay English teacher all join forces to attempt to keep school shootings to a minimum. Hilarity ensues when perps use automatic weapons throughout the dilapidated campus, mostly with bad aim. When Officer Bumtrodden catches up with them, it’s detention for at least a week. Principal Laquisha will have the bullies waxing cars in the parking lot as punishment, and Dear Old Mr. Bruce always finds the hidden motivation that has upset the shooter, and helps to talk him into a peaceful solution.

Theme song: “Pumped Up Kicks.”

How about a show about an honest god-fearing hard-working small businessman who owns a taxicab business, and who has a loving wife and a young daughter, whose best friends are an overweight, cigar-smoking, mentally-challenged womanizer and a lying, conniving hustler and crook? For good measure, throw in a domineering wife, a battle-axe mother-in-law and a crooked incompetent lawyer?

Oh, I forgot something. They’re all black.

Here is one for a show called "Shovel Ready. "

It's about a blue collar family who live in Queens, NY. The father is a construction worker who is building a new bridge that never seems to make any progress. The mother is a nurse at the local hospital. The oldest son works at a hotel in Manhattan. The daughter is married to a conservative who is going to college.

Hilarity ensues as we watch the hijinks as friends at the bridge crew deal with government regulations, the hospital sees a never-ending stream of ethnic characters complaining about their health care, the son is always scheming to get rich off of the hotel guests with his union buddies, and the son-in-law is trying to tell the family that they are nuts.

Oddly enough, those shows are only made today with balck characters (as they try to “fix” the black family with TV); shows with white characters feature everything BUT a traditional nuclear family. Years ago my wife used to watch “Friends” re-runs; of the three children in the show, NONE were born in a traditional family.

No wonder whites are disappearing; those inheriting the earth just want it more...
