If that’s the case, I’m going to start suing rappers all day long.

It is the Socialists who want to enslave people. And Democrats have done all they could to put an end to black owned businesses, get the fathers out of black households, and kept them dumb and dependent on a monthly check.
The Democrats of the 1960s voted against the Civil Rights bill (just as they'd ignored the changes from the 1950s with integration in schools). JFK was against the 1963 march on Washington.
But let's keep the myth alive that white people want to put black people back in chains. Who could afford the housing or mouths to feed? What would they have them do? Yardwork? Nannies? Hispanics have those jobs now.
Meanwhile no public figures denounce the slavery that still exists in Western Africa.

"If you got a slave master or Klan in your blood, blacks can sense that. That stuff lingers to this day. Just like Jews can sense Nazi blood and the Serbs can sense Croatian blood."
That is what long term marijuana use will do to you.

>Asked about America's slavery past, Dylan said: "Blacks know that some whites didn't want to give up slavery — that if they had their way, they would still be under the yoke, and they can't pretend they don't know that," reports Shalom Life. "If you got a slave master or Klan in your blood, blacks can sense that. That stuff lingers to this day. Just like Jews can sense Nazi blood and the Serbs can sense Croatian blood."
It was the last part of that quote which seems to have got Dylan in trouble...
Funny how the first part is accept as "trufe" and is not liable for hate speech prosecution.

European free speech laws can be much stricter than in the U.S.Pure Orwell. Like the names Patriot Act and Affordable Healthcare Act.
Why did we even bother fighting WWII?

Why did we even bother fighting WWII? That's what my father asked in 1977 when I worked for a Japanese company (JVC) and drove a German car (Audi).

Does this mean Jeff Dunham, and for that matter, Jeff Foxworthy with his "redneck" jokes can be subject to arrest if they step foot on Euro soil?

Dylan can smell Klan blood? He should be sued for stupidity, not racism.

Once again proving that the left is more racist than anyone. This guy is an idiot but idiocy should be legal. F France.

"If you got a slave master or Klan in your blood, blacks can sense that. That stuff lingers to this day. Just like Jews can sense Nazi blood and the Serbs can sense Croatian blood." Couldn't possibly be the ignorance inherent in that statement.

I find it amazing American blacks can’t sense the slave-trading that runs in Obastard’s blood?
