Major media networks are diminishing or secularizing Memorial Day by including current veterans with remembrances.
By including living veterans, it takes away the meaning and spirit of this ultimate sacrifice that those killed-in-action have made.
It almost seems that the mainstream only wants us to see that only martyrs can give their lives for a cause. To keep a secular view in the public mind and esprit de corps for the fallen in check.
This is not what Memorial Day is for.
Memorial Day is only for those brave military service personnel that gave the ultimate sacrifice for the United States and that is their lives.
May 20, 2010/ PHILADELPHIA – With all the recent news of Arizona’s S.B. 1070 law, a Mexican being beaten and the Mexican president calling the law ‘racist’, does this mean that Mexicans are of a certain race?
Last I checked, Mexico is a country. Let’s switch countries around to see: So, if a Mexican police officer said, “I’m going to beat the f***ing American piss out of you, Homey! You feel me?” to an American, would that be racist?
Mexico and the United States were invaded and conquered by the Spaniards [Europeans]- remember, the conquistadors? The Spaniards beat the natives in what is now Mexico. The other Europeans [English] ‘invaded’ and beat the Spanish-Europeans and the United States is now what it is. (See below video):
Now we have the Mexican president, Calderon (which is a Spanish [European] surname), saying that the Arizona 1070 law is ‘racist’.
Once again, switch countries around to let’s say, Canada, which was also conquered by Europeans [French]. Would it be ‘racist’? No, that’s because Canada is just another country. (See video below):
Now, the United States’ people are made-up of mostly European decent, with Blacks making-up 13%. What part of Mexico is European?
In our minds, we have been trained to think of Mexicans as ‘Latinos’ – who came-up with this?
The Latin world, as we know it, is basically every single country south of the U.S. including many Caribbean, but not all, countries. Some Caribbean countries are almost all elusively Black. Are there any Blacks in Mexico? I haven’t seen any, minus tourists. At one point in time, c. 1570, Blacks outnumbered Spaniards 3:1 Brazil has many Blacks but not Mexico. Whatever happened to the Black Mexicans?
Reciprocating, if we call most countries’ people south of the U.S., ‘Latinos’ – what do the Latinos call the northern countries’ peoples?
It’s time we all recognize our true history.
And don’t forget, on these continents, both North and South, we are all Americans.
April 24, 2010 / PHILADELPHIA / DIVERSE NEWS / – With just 37 minutes into the published story on YAHOO! there were over 33,000 replies.
Many comments were relating the law to racism, discrimination and civil rights violations. Only problem with this is that the word civil applies to citizens. Dictionary.com defines ‘civil’ as:
1.
of, pertaining to, or consisting of citizens: civil life; civil society.
2.
of the commonwealth or state: civil affairs.
3.
of citizens in their ordinary capacity, or of the ordinary life and affairs of citizens, as distinguished from military and ecclesiastical life and affairs.
4.
of the citizen as an individual: civil liberty.
5.
befitting a citizen: a civil duty. etc.
So, are the Arizona citizens going to have to worry about this law?

I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children. I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I’ve done, but I want to do my best to try.
I would like to ask everyone, including my fans, the good people at my foundation, business partners, the PGA Tour, and my fellow competitors, for their understanding. What’s most important now is that my family has the time, privacy, and safe haven we will need for personal healing.
After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person.
Again, I ask for privacy for my family and I am especially grateful for all those who have offered compassion and concern during this difficult period. – tigerwoods.com

Funny how the mainstream media is carrying this charade on. I mean, most sports figures have several sexual partners. Why should Tiger be any different?
Look at it this way: Saying that infidelity (that would be his sexual-orientation) is bad, according to the media – isn’t that discrimination-having more than one sex partner?
If we are talking about morals here, that would be religious as well. So they are singling Tiger out because of his religious beliefs.
I don’t know who Tiger pissed-off, but this sudden moral empathy in the media was caused by someone who had it in for him.

PHILADELPHIA, PA -November 5, 2009 –DIVERSE NEWS / – In what appears to be an obvious case of racism within the military, major news outlets are not identifying the suspect of the Fort Hood shootings as a ‘racist’. It is not confirmed if it is some sort of news blackout, political-correctness (censorship) or because Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, 39, was not of European decent.
This sure does say much about the psychiatric profession. With many institutions using psychiatry to make decisions about people’s lives inasmuch as psychiatry is basically ‘guess work’ itself.
This campaign, regardless of its excuses, have caused terror. Sure, the apparent reasoning seems isolated but this elaborate, well thought-out plot, could be the future of terror as to keep the blame off of groups.
It is not yet known if the shootings have been orchestrated by some sort of sleeper-cell and no group has claimed responsibility yet.
One thing for sure, we must recognize ethnicity in all we do, just as we have been taught to be multicultural.
PHILADELPHIA, PA / 20091018 / DIVERSE NEWS / — With immigration and illegal immigration having dominated the news for a few years now, there is a common mistake of how most latinos, especially Mexicans, are portrayed.
We hear the plight of Mexicans coming over the border, working under the table, but one truth is left out: They are already Americans!
Yes, this is true. The only problem is that their country, unlike the United States of America, does not include the ‘America’ in its name. You know, like ‘Mexico of America’; ‘Brazil of America’ and ‘Peru of America’, etc.
In the United Nations’ meetings, the name plate on for the U.S. Ambassador is titled, ‘United States’ not United States of America – that’s already assumed.
Yea, I know, citizens of the United States are called Americans but so can other North and South Americans be assumed-Americans.
What can come out of this?
Since North and South American nations are all ‘of America’, we can celebrate this promoting ‘Americanism’ throughout the continents and the world. That we are all Americans and be proud of our countries and our lands. Sure, all American countries have borders. But each American can do more to respect each countries’ attributes.
Viva America!
Who, that grew up during the cold war, would ever think of such a time when the Soviet Union would be inspecting the U.S.’s nuclear facilities? Scary ain’t it?
In a somewhat rare show of media isolation, Fox News appears to be the only news service covering this Dana Lewis and AP contributed story (by way of google search).
Clinton said the U.S. would be as transparent as possible.
“We want to ensure that every question that the Russian military or Russian government asks is answered,” she said, calling missile defense “another area for deep cooperation between our countries.”
On another critical issue, Lavrov declared that it would be counterproductive to threaten Iran with more sanctions over its nuclear program — as he resisted efforts by Clinton to win agreement for tougher measures should Iran fail to prove its program is peaceful.
This may be a prelude to a joint U.S. / Russian Iran inspection.
PHILADELPHIA, PA \Sept. 22, 2009 \ DIVERSE NEWS –
Not surprising but more Americans are getting their news source from merry old England everyday.
I guess they are sick of the mainstream media and would rather get a different view.
Here’s the paidcontent.org story
PHILADELPHIA, PA\ SEPTEMBER 20, 2009 \ DIVERSE NEWS –
With all the news media stories about racism going hand-in-hand with these Tea Parties, it makes you wonder: who are they directing these racism claims towards?
The only ethnic/racial group the mainstream media recognizes to be racists (as a whole or mostly in part) are Whites. The U.S. Census-which all government agencies must go by – defines Whites as: A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East.
So, of these groups, which ones are the racists?
Most American people have European roots. But the new White group from the Middle East, are not called or recognized by the media as being ‘White’, even though, officially, they are. Middle-Easterners do not get claims of racism directed at them. So, the racists can’t be the Arabs.
Racial classification comes in handy with the fairness in lending law, which goes by race standards supplied by the U.S. Census. You can see who the banks lent that money to everyday, with new businesses that opened suddenly in your community.
The North Africans, who are mostly Arabs, are certainly not labeled racists, either.
This means that the media have been calling the Europeans racists.
Who else? The ones that the media does not apply political correctness to, the one group that the media does not add a continentally-hyphenated name to.
If I was a White person, I would not even turn the TV on. All they do is try to make you hate your own White self.
