Perry Family Hunting Camp's Racial Ephithet

Perry is facing new controversy since news of this story broke recently.

Following a Washington Post report (http://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...charged-name/2011/10/01/gIQAOhY5DL_story.html) that Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry's family hunting camp in Texas once had the word "Niggerhead" painted on a large rock at its entrance, the Perry campaign is scrambling to control the damage.

Perry insists that his father painted over the offensive word on the Fourth of July weekend of 1983 or 1984, as soon as his family began leasing the property, and his campaign communications director Ray Sullivan pointed out in a statement that Perry's family never actually owned the West Texas property.

"A number of claims made in the story are incorrect, inconsistent and anonymous, including the implication that Rick Perry brought groups to the lease when the word on the rock was still visible," he said. "The one consistent fact in the story is that the word on a rock was painted over and obscured many years ago."

Sullivan's statement conflicts with some of the witnesses' accounts in the Washington Post story, which allege that the racial slur was still visible throughout the '80s and "as recently as this summer."

The funny thing is this won't phase his supporters one bit. In fact it will gain him more support since they'll spin this as an attack by the liberal media.

 

I'm shocked...SHOCKED!!

The Tea Party has never been anything but sensitive to those of other races, cultures, creeds, and religions! I'm appalled at this obvious underhanded attempt to discredit the great Rick Perry!

(OK, seriously, I think the entire GOP needs to go sit in the corner and think about what they've done and continue to do...at least through the next five or six elections.)

Ugh.

 

NIGGERHEAD!!!!! Yeee-haw!!!artyman:

What?? Is there a problem???:smt037

Those crazy Republicans!!!:butthead:

You just can't make this shit up. I seriously wonder now if Rick Perry isn't a straight up racist.
Why don't most Blacks vote Republican??

you know that they're struggling when the stories constantly change and grow more elaborate in explanation...It's sad that this is the state of a supposed contender to the nation's highest office, someone who's expect to govern for the benefit of ALL our nation's people.

 

Absolutely!

 

That's funny - for a few minutes I misread this and thought Tyler Perry had a camp out in the boondocks somwhere and called it N*****head... LOL.

and is now trying to retract it. I thought - now what is the sense in that?
Madea would love that shit.
I mean it's kind of funny albeit insensitive and lame! Be an asshole! You're Tyler Perry after all...

You say it's Rick Perry? Oh.

Fuck him. Cut his balls off and serve them to him mixed into the fois
gras served with a side of pinot GRINGO.

It's all in a name....


I hate Republicans. My parents are Teaparty fuckwads. I hate my life. Fox NEWs, burn in hell. Anna Nicole Smith and Michael Jackson, RIP.

 

Why is that funny?

 

Read the rest of it, stupid.

Incidentally, I was editing my post as you were writing your response, so you may want to go back and read the edited version before you make an ass of yourself.

 

smh lol

Your horseshit is showing sweetheart:smt023

 

Agreed...I don't see any humor in it at all, either that you'd publicly admit to having thoughts that are insensitive at best, or in you attempting to connect that epithet to Tyler Perry based on your own preconceived notions about him. Both revelations are as unfortunate as the story, IMO.

 

Cosign

 

I was saying that I wouldn't put it past Tyler Perry to call a piece of property N*****head. Far be it from me to judge him, but I can surely laugh at him.

It's not Tyler Perry, so chill the fuck out. Stop being such self-righteous PC pricks. I wouldn't advocate using that word under any circumstances.

 

You "sir", are a whiny brat who needs to grow up.

 

Yup.

 

SO SUSPECT

 

I've every right to comment on anything that I wish, especially when I consider the remarks to reflect a sentiment at odds with the mission of this site. I stand by the fact that it's pretty insensitive at best, or perhaps just the result of you "not getting it", or being ignorant about the significance of your comments.

Choose any of those, including your insults, and you still come off sounding both arrogant and clueless, in keeping with your personae here in general. So, rant on that others may see it for themselves.

 

Niggerhead? Sound like something former Ku Kluk Klan, Senator Robert Byrd (D) of West Virginia would have said in his famous use of the word "nigger" in that he once said "there are white niggers and there are black niggers", they are all the same as far as I'm concern".

 

People like him need to be very careful.

It is predicted that by 2050, the majority of people in this country will not be white. You can only treat people of color a certain way before it backfires on you.

 

I don't care who you are, niggerhead is funny. Not haha funny, but funny as in I've never heard of a 'niggerhead' and why would you name a hunting ranch as such??
It's funny mostly because a GOP presidential candidate has this kind of shit hiding in plain sight and reinforces all the nonsense I already believe about that 'big tent' party.:smt005

It's a twisted funny, not haha funny IMO.

For real, the state of Texas should dig up that hunting ranch and see what exactly is buried out there.:smt009

No more POTUS for you 'Slick' Rick Perry!!:smt039
Hello Mitt Romney.
