Hey, Rachel: I’m Pretty Certain “Creepy Ass Cracker” is a Racial Slur
Townhall.com ^ | June 30, 2013 | Doug Giles

After Tuesday’s testimony in the George Zimmerman trial by star witness Rachel Jeantel some of my white devil, honky, gringo, pasty skin, mackerel snatchin’, Caucasian buddies got all up in arms about Rachel Jeantel stating that “creepy ass cracker” is not a racial slur.

First of all, Rachel, and I hate to break it to you, sister -- and I use that word “sister” in the strictest biblical sense of the word -- but “creepy ass cracker” does, historically, denote derision towards the pigmentally challenged of this world.

By pointing this out to you, I do not mean to demean or berate you. It’s just a friendly FYI I’m putting out there for you to consider, for future reference, because it does offend some of my tribe’s more genteel members.

That said, it really doesn’t offend me. Matter of fact, I prefer cheeky ass cracker to creepy ass cracker as the former borrows capital from British slang and merges it with an 18th century Floridian colloquialism, making it at least a quasi-compliment for this 21st century, brutish wordsmith; while the latter denotes a middle-aged white dude who comments way too much on a cute teenage girl’s Facebook page. Or a teenage boy’s Facebook page, for that matter. But I digress …

Another thing that got a lot of my WASPY buddies miffed by your testimony last week was the fact that the media isn’t Paula Dean-ing you for your use of an obvious racial epithet. To that I would suggest just forgiving them if they tweeted you something untoward, as some of my buddies are arriving a little late to the party and it’s just now dawning on them that the media is unsympathetic to their genome’s plight.

Thirdly, I’d watch it calling someone or something “retarded.” A lot of folks, especially those with special needs friends and family members, take umbrage to that phraseology. It’s just a suggestion to consider. Seriously.

Another thing to ponder if you happen to get called to the stand again, is to get your stories straight while you’re giving testimony or it could turn out better for the defense than the prosecution.

And finally, I know you didn’t ask for this type of spotlight to bear down on you but, if I were you, I would really, really dial down on the rude answers and the obtuse facial expressions, as it sure didn’t look great on television, and at the end of the day, we all have to get along.

0bama is a creepy ass-cracker (on his Mother’s side) following us all with his vigilante gov’t agencies.

I feel sorry for George Zimmerman.

This trial is no longer about him.

It's about this girl. I can't believe we took the bait.

What am I saying. Of COURSE I believe we took the bait.

Rachel Jeantel is the reason Trayvon Martin is dead, and she knows it.

She was on the phone talking trash to Trayvon about the “creepy-ass cracker rapist” following him and how if he was a real gangster he’d give the cracker a beatdown he’d never forget.

When Trayvon was killed because of her she went dark until Benjamin Crump hunted her down and gave her a script to follow.

A society that even considers putting such a creature on a witness stand in a superior courtroom is a society in serious decline.

Those words alone, “creepy ass cracker”, tell us all we need to know about this trial. It IS all about race, and the prosecution’s star “witness” said as much.

This trial is not about self-defense at all, but about getting whitey. even if whitey isn’t so white after all.

Another thing that came out in the trail is she is 19 years old and entering her senior year in high school. I would have to say she has some serious learning disabilites. I will leave it at that.

The court should subpoena NSA to retrieve the complete phone call between Rachel Jeantel and Trayvon. We know they have it. They record everything.

mackerel snatchin’ ???...Had to look that one up. My research shows that’s a slur for Catholics (something from the 1800’s to do with the fish on Friday thing), and not specifically just for white bread, mayonnaise, honky ass crackers. Funny thing about “whitey” slurs in that they don’t seem to have much effect on white people.

I am in full agreement with your theory. I think donut-neck spent all that time on the phone with St. Skittles urging him to “Beat that creepy-ass cracka dead.” Her “friend” is dead instead, 100% because of her.

And she’d do it again in a heartbeat. Heck, I’m sure she’s trying to figure out how to get Don West killed right now. I have a feeling that we’ll be hearing more about this freak in the years ahead.

CAC is street slang for homosexual men. She followed it up with the suggestion Z might rape TM and to RUN! The fact TM is a homophobe is motive for the beat down

Shame the defense didn’t follow through on it!

Maybe I should have put Paula Deen's face in this too.

It’s not just about race. It’s about gay-bashing. Trayvon suspected Zimmerman may have been stalking him for homosexual reasons. Thus the description as “creepy-ass cracker”, “pussy-ass cracker”, and “rapist”. He possibly used other, more specific anti-gay descriptions that Jeantel was coached not to reveal.

Trayvon Martin was likely a gay-basher who decided to put a beat-down, MMA-style, on someone he perceived to be gay.

What would the lefties think if little Trayvon turned out to be the antithesis of their innocent little boy?

Is there a trial going on in Florida? Or a witch hunt? I vote for the latter.

I have a liberal relative who believes that a neighborhood watch volunteer has no right to look too closely at (or report) a suspicious character in the neighborhood, but the government has every right to spy on all Americans and our allies, without limitations of any kind. And he’s serious.

After centuries of having sticks, stones and more thrown at them, Whites understand that while those things can break their bones, words will never hurt them. I think there may be a big cultural difference at work as well: One culture is prone to exhibit violence at the drop of a hat. The second culture takes considerably longer, but will eventually exhibit something for the benefit of the first.

No worries - this was never about George Zimmerman. Barry Soetoro, lying, thieving, traitor that he is, has told the truth about one and only one thing: Fundamental Change of America. This trial is all about ramping it up. All along the PINO has been provoking a Race War - When Zimmerman is found not guilty, the Media traitors and Hollywood idiots like Chris Rock and Spike Lee, will be ready to roll — the Dogs of War will be unleashed, and 1968 will look like child’s play. I hope all of us white cracker asses are ready because this will definitely be local.
