And don't, please don't come into this Diary complaining about the title. If you do, I'll ask you: What offends you more- my title, or Mansfield, La.'s new Anti-Nigger Law?
----------
'Cause that's exactly what it is, folks. Trust a Halfrican, I can spot these things a mile away...you may just wish to call it "racial profiling," but I prefer the old-fashioned term, a law to "Keep them nigras in them their place..."
Effective Sept. 15, anyone in this northwest Louisiana town caught wearing sagging pants that expose his or her underwear will be subject to a fine up to $150 plus court costs, or face up to 15 days in jail.
Uh, can anyone here pronounce the name of this particular animal?
Hint: It rhymes with J-I-M C-R-O-W...
Yeah, that'll show those white people who love to walk around with their pants sagging down...

TheManWithNoPoint's diary :: ::
Mansfield...yes, there's more than one Mansfield in the United States. I'm talking about this one, whose only claim to fame is
History
The Battle of Mansfield, a Confederate victory under General Richard Taylor (son of Zachary Taylor), was fought here on April 8, 1864. This battle turned 42,000 Union Troops away from their conquest of the Louisiana Confederate Capital, Shreveport and sent them in retreat to New Orleans.
So, don't think this is about race?
Don't think it's about race? Then, tell me to which racial group does John Gibson, FoxNews' resident Ku Klux Klan nostalgist, refer to, when he loudly cheers the new law and says of the style:
It's not exactly new. Young men walking around with their pants sagging down somewhere south of their boxer shorts has been a feature of urban life for sometime. There are even hip-hop songs about saggin': I sag here, I sag there. My life is saggin' pants.
Yeah, you're right...he's talking about the ten-pierce-holes, green-haired white youth of that region, must be...
Because, according to the 2000 census, little ol' Mansfield, La.;
...there were 5,582 people...The racial makeup of the city was 34.13% White, 64.26% African American, 0.13% Native American, 0.27% Asian, 0.47% from other races, and 0.75% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.59% of the population.
Wow, a Jim Crow law in a Southern town that is one-third white, and nearly two-thirds black...
And pray tell, Mr. Gibson (of "let's make more white babies" fame), whose pure Anglo-Saxon bloodlines art whiter than thine hair, why are you so tickled by this law?
Even though you admit that the ACLU will shoot this down like a drunken duck in a bio-dome, and that the Supreme Court will give it the "hard good-bye" in a world-record quick ruling?
Is it that you already know that the targets of this law are more likely to end up doing 15 days in the bin than to come up with $150.00?
Wow, you're a real humanitarian, Grand Wiz- I mean, Mr. Gibson. In fact, this is how special you are, getting right into it;
...I say book 'em chief. Enforce the law until the courts say stop. Maybe in the meantime the kid with the sagging pants will grow up.
Yes, I'm sure they will, Mr. Gibson- after they've done 15 days in a Southern American jail for...a breach in dress etiquette...
----------
Tell me again, Mr. Gibson, how many days Scooter Libby served for his conviction for perjury and obstruction of justice?
No time in jail? Not even one day?
And you were in support of this?
Excellent...
----------
Reminds me of a hilarious quote from Fried Green Tomatoes, where the Georgia sheriff says to the black man, "Just remember...we hang our lyin' niggers in Georgia... just as fast as they do in Alabama..."
----------
My advice to young black men in the Southern States of America:
A. Repeat after me: "You've got me confused with someone else, officer, my name isn't Crow, it's 50-Cent..."
B. If you're going to wear pants that hang low...wear shorts beneath them, so your "drawz" aren't showing?
Hey, no one said there was anything wrong with sagging pants exposing athletic shorts, did they?
----------
Give them a minute...
----------
It's Official: In certain parts of the United States of America, it is now a crime to Walk While Black.
----------
You heard it here first...
