Just when you think you have heard all of the stupid things that are
going on in the US -- this comes along.....Black hurricanes....
Well, it appears our African-American friends have found yet something
else to be pissed about.
A black congresswoman (this would be Sheila Jackson Lee, of Houston),
reportedly complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian
sounding names.
She would prefer some names that reflect African-American culture such
as Chamiqua, Tanisha, Woeisha, Shaquille, and Jamal. I am NOT making
this up!
She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in 'language'
that street people can understand because one of the problems that
happened in New Orleans was, that black people couldn't understand the
seriousness of the situation, due to the racially biased language of
the weather report.
I guess if the weather person says that the winds are going to blow at
140+ MPH, that's too hard to understand
I can hear it now: A weatherman in New Orleans says...
Wazzup, mutha-fukkas! Hehr-i-cane Chamiqua be headin' fo' yo ass like
a Pimp on a rocket! Bitch be a category fo'! So, turn off dem
chitlins, grab yo' chirren, a case of double duces, leave yo crib, and
head fo' de nearest FEMA office fo yo FREE shit!! Don't forget yo
dope! 1-love Niggas
