    Default Racists become unhinged as their racism is unchained... over dolls

    Source:

    Slavery-era action figures tied to Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained" are raising questions about whether they're appropriate.
    Questions about 'appropriateness?'

    Only in the minds of racists and bigots.

    Najee Ali, director of the advocacy group Project Islamic Hope, plans a news conference Tuesday with other Los Angeles black community leaders calling for the removal of the toys from the market.
    Community leaders?

    Vultures and jackals is more like it. These racist self-hate Whitey prygryssyve media appointed buffoons have no leadership role in any community. They are merely the house dogs that serve up the tripe when called upon by their White prygryssyve masters.

    All this over little dolls. That's just crazy.

    Gross. Who would buy them? Seems the "problem" will correct itself in short order.

    Now Sharpton's involved

    Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network called for a national boycott Tuesday of action figures based on the controversial and blood-soaked slavery revenge flick “Django Unchained.” A 10-doll assortment of characters from the film was going for $299 on Amazon Tuesday.

    “Selling this doll is highly offensive to our ancestors and the African American community,” Rev. K.W. Tulloss, NAC's president in Los Angeles, told the Daily News. “The movie is for adults, but these are action figures that appeal to children. We don’t want other individuals to utilize them for their entertainment, to make a mockery of slavery.”
    Did the Rev. K.W. Tulloss actually query his ancestors about this?

    Dieser Weg wird kein leichter sein; dieser Weg wird steinig und schwer.
    Nicht mit vielen wirst du dir einig sein, doch dieses Leben bietet so viel mehr. --Xavier Naidoo

    He doesn't have to. The white man owned their bodies and the black man owns their legacy. The slaves will never have control of anything concerning their lives. In life they were exploited by white men for wealth. In death they are exploited by black men for wealth and political capital.

    Same metal midgets who buy Snoop Dogg or Flava Flav or Biggie or Tupoc dolls.
