Post 137266 by w0mbat deleted for the following reason: This is punch-in-the-gut sort of Op/Ed thing dealing with child abuse, sexual abuse/rape, murder and disability, that also seems like it's coming out of nowhere unless one is already involved in this particular discussion already. Probably better to try this again with more context, in a way that offers more options for thoughtful discussion than rage and fury in response? Please contact us if you have questions. -- taz

The Manifesto of Ascendancy for the Modern American Nigger
Post 137172 by eric1halfb deleted for the following reason: "He just won an Oscar" is kind of weird non-context for an eight-year-old essay and not really the best justification pullquoting the word "nigger" on the front page. -- cortex
Ye shall find him in the club.
Post 137162 by ericbop deleted for the following reason: Jehovah's Witnesses, Deaf culture, and hip hop — not a combination that will go down well here in the form of one humorous video, however humorous, sorry. -- goodnewsfortheinsane

Check out the guidelines and feel free to drop us a note at the contact form if you'd like to talk about it in more detail. -- LobsterMitten
"It's sad and absurd"
Post 137113 by kyrademon deleted for the following reason: Between this being predictable those-people-did-that-thing and it not actually being finalized, this is probably better off going away until it gets nailed down. -- restless_nomad
