Obama signed a bill striking 'Oriental' and 'Negro' from federal code

President Obama signed a bill into law Friday that strikes derogatory terms for minorities, including "Oriental" and "Negro," from federal law, The Hill reports.
"The term 'Oriental' has no place in federal law, and at long last this insulting and outdated term will be gone for good," bill author Rep. Grace Meng (D-N.Y.) said in a statement.

The House of Representatives and the Senate both unanimously passed the measure, which will replace the words struck with terms including Asian-American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, African-American, Hispanic, Puerto Rican, Native American, and Alaska Native. Julie Kliegman

[Cock Head Jones]

Obama is supposed to be in IDGAF mode right now. This is soft...

 

[durham]

Very necessary, but my people sure would like some fucking help with these police, and school segregation, that was allegedly solved decades ago.

Obama stay throwing niggas political scraps while everyone else that voted or paid him off gets steaks.

 

[Amajorfucup]

Cops can now continue to shoot unarmed black men as long as they refrain from calling them "negro". Good shit O!

Yeah, tell me why it's ILLEGAL for me to drive without a seatbelt and be charged a $115 fine if I don't, yet people can conspire to keep quiet about the poisoning of an entire city's water supply and still keep their jobs.

I know you hip to this 'people of color' shit. Now others are waking up like drunken whores realizing how smiling faces who tell them what they want to hear can't be trusted.

why da fuck was it still in the book in 2016?

Well the first step is to acknowledge that there is a problem which the Congress will never do.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/1933/all-info

Bill for H.R.1933 - End Racial Profiling Act of 2015. Sponsor: Rep. Conyers, John, Jr. [D-MI-13] (Introduced 04/22/2015)

Never made it out of the House to be voted on.

And Congress only offered 250 million for all cities not just Flint dealing with similar problems in an Energy Bill. Flint would have never seen the money.

But a senator in Utah objected to the way the bill was funded so the Flint provision was removed from the bill before the bill was passed.

These were my own first and second thoughts.
Then he wants to (still) go around throwing subliminals at the BLM leader who refused his bullshit photo-op masquerading as a civil rights summit on police reform.

 

[Soul On Ice]

Wow.
Could it be that BGOL has finally gotten hip to his games...?

So,white folks can poison water and nothing gets done to them.

White men can shoot black people unarmed and get away with it.

White teachers,particularly white women can unjustly punish black kids,for no reason.

White people can come into our neighborhoods and do whatever the fuck they want.

White people can discriminate us from getting a job base on our names

The list goes on and on and yet Obama signs a bullshit bill.

I even agree his hands was tied from the moment he became president and yet he found a way to get shit done for other groups,but somehow when it comes to black people,he wants to go Scooby Doo on us.

But.....but..he's the President of the United States not the President of black people...fuck outta here with that bullshit...

 

[dHustla]

Obama is supposed to be in IDGAF mode right now. This is soft...

I agree.

I'm really hoping he has some serious shit cooking that will give us "negroes" reparations... something like any & everybody with 1 drop of black blood gets 5-10 years tax free & a 0% home loan


I'm thinking maybe Eric Holder was privy to it and didn't want to homicide his career and resigned.

Lol you think obama cares about black people

 

[Megatron X]

It's funny how people now see Obama for the faggot transvestite he is but I remember saying this like 8 years ago how he was gonna play the negro and niggaz were protecting this piece of shit.

The first term he didn't do anything for you but you stayed loyal to him in the second. You can only blame yourselves for not making this man work for you. All you did was give this dude passes. Constantly.

Now you want to complain about him??? Niggaz always late for everything cause you choose to be. Now you all are gonna repeat the same shit with Bernie sanders.

Obama is insulting you all of the time with his bullshit.

 

[knightmelodic]

People kill me. They expect Obama to be the Magical Negro and wave his wand for THEIR interests, and theirs alone. The man is a) in a hostile environment and b) president for everybody, not just Black people. And what about all the presidents before him? Like the repugs that had BOTH houses on their side and could have gotten just about anything passed? Damn, people so quick to jump all over the man. It's a fucking shame. Just because he's not doing what you want doesn't mean he's not doing the best he can.

These are the same idiots that don't say a word when white republicans are stealing the Black vote, declared racism over, lowering wages, and taking health care away. Obama fighting them every second of his Presidency.

They are too ignorant to see Obama is one of the greatest Presidents in our life times.

Boy, are you guys are not going to like reflecting on this guys presidency.

I wonder if this was inspired by the comedian who said "Nigg*r" at
Correspondents Dinner the other day in the presence of Obama?

this don't work anymore..

He had no issue fighting for the interests of fags and illegals so he could have fought for black as well.

So being president of all Americans means blacks too not just fags, illegals ,women and corporate interests

It hasn't been quick, it has been 8 years in the making

And the hostile environment didn't stop his fight for them so it is valid reason he didn't fight for us ?

Don't ask about white presidents before him that fought for white interests. Him being black meant he had a dog in the fight.

and nobody will ever listen to you because you present your opinion like a spurned faggot.

all that transvestite faggot shit makes you invalid. You can disagree with the man and point to him being ineffective when it comes to us but to be personally insulting just because you think him more fabulous than you makes you a non-factor.

Strongest president since I've been around and that's been since about Reagan era...

Doesn't mean he doesn't also come w/ a buncha bullshit too. He's a politician...

 

[ballscout1]

It appears that the bill was introduced by an Asian offended by the word Oriental and that Negro and Injun and Spic and the like was just residual benefits

 

[ballscout1]

Boy, are you guys are not going to like reflecting on this guys presidency.

I don't think the issue or questions are his presidency overall.

It is his ignoring of Black America while trying to prove he wasn't just their president.

It's like when a teacher has a child in the school/class and tries so hard to prove they have no favoritism that they end up still treating their child worse than everyone else, worse

Why is he the magical negro for gays, Hispanics, Jewish people, Wall Street bankers, white women, etc? But as I've said plenty of times, when it comes to black Americans, it's that same old song, "the man is in a hostile environment" or my favorite, "he's not the president of black America, he's the president of all America." This bullshit only seems to apply to blacks.

He purposely gives blacks scraps and never any major legislation or executive orders. You a damn fool to protect somebody and not demand something for your vote. You may as well not vote.

His presidency has been an utter failure to me. Granted federal grants are a great step forward, by now I would have expected not only universal healthcare, but college should have been free at the state colleges. I also didn't expect him to go around killing people either.

What executive decisions can he implement to appease us? On paper, we are fine.
