If You Don't Agree with Somebody Call Them Racist
Honestly this kind of thing just pisses me off...

To sum up the story a many opens a Republican oriented political merchandise kiosk in a mall. Somebody writes in and complains so he gets booted out. But it's the accusation made against the owner, Loren Spivack, that pisses me off the most here.
As most of you know I'm not a Republican nor anywhere near one. I disagree with much of what Mr. Spivack says on his merchandise. But for God's sake this line is the real offensive thing here...
At least one passerby found them racist and bigoted, and took time to tell the mall in a letter and a letter to the editor of the Charlotte Observer.
I am really fucking tired of people who worship the Obamessiah screaming racism every time somebody else criticizes the man. Most people who are criticizing him aren't racist but actually don't agree with his policies. I happen to be one of those people.
And this is where I go into rant mode for a few seconds. The people complaining in this story are what I call "progressive" liberals. Don't mistake these "progressive" liberals with actual liberals whom are willing to have an honest debate, kindly disagree with your views, and not scream racism when you criticize Dear Leader. No these "progressive" liberals are well described by Eric Shelton on the Handgun Podcast.
They are great at feeling but not very good at thinking. Their arguments are always emotion based and never fact based. They will scream things about needing to ban guns because just one innocent child being shot is too many (which is true but the fact that 2,500,000 times a year guns are used to save peoples' lives far outweighs any single tragedy). But worst of all these people are also hypocrites which are my least favorite kind of people.
They will scream until their blue in the face about how tolerant they are of others. This tolerance ends the second you don't agree completely with them of course. They claim they want equality for all and will do anything to fight racism and bigotry. Where are they when a conservative man is being discriminated against? Oh that's right since that person doesn't share their views they don't deserve to have a business.
Now I agree the mall owner has every right to decide can and can't rent space in his mall. It's his private property and he has the freedom to do what he wishes with it. My complaint here is the accusation that the kiosk owner is racist because he doesn't agree with the Obamessiah.
You know I think I can sum up this entire article with the following picture from Sunday's episode of No Agenda...
