It doesn't come off that way, though, as most people aren't "in" on the joke. Deen is catching it so hard not merely because of using the N-word, but because of the racist practices in which she and her brother engaged in their businesses, and those did not occur 30 years ago. Her apologies, while emotional and extensive, did not even address the business practices but only the allusions to language, and therefore don't hold a lot of weight with me.Elaine Albertsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653777241725644144.post-31224388248902881412013-07-01T08:29:57.588-10:002013-07-01T08:29:57.588-10:00KimObama, I agree with you, the Anti-Haole t-shirt...KimObama, I agree with you, the Anti-Haole t-shirts are inappropriate.<br /><br />If Causcasians were not being brutalized, raped, and murdered, perhaps such a "message by t-shirt" might have a completely different meaning.<br /><br />That the owner of the shop attempted to minimize the facts, and ignore the elephant in the room, speaks volumes.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653777241725644144.post-65582469440525555462013-06-30T21:36:24.209-10:002013-06-30T21:36:24.209-10:00anonymous, what chu tink bout the anti-Haole t-shi...anonymous, what chu tink bout the anti-Haole t-shirt and the skateboard shop owners reason for making it? pretty lame if you ask me?KimoRosenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18361372081221232289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653777241725644144.post-10532976432227568592013-06-30T21:21:50.441-10:002013-06-30T21:21:50.441-10:00Anonymous, I know you and agree! never knew the te...Anonymous, I know you and agree! never knew the term you said about locals?KimoRosenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18361372081221232289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653777241725644144.post-75150791331181725552013-06-30T20:58:04.860-10:002013-06-30T20:58:04.860-10:00It's all about profit, isn't it?

Had Paula Deen been Martha Steward, she'd still have an over-priced line at stores such as Macy's.<br /><br />Some lovely "natives" on the Hawaiian islands; but, brutal racism exists.<br /><br />On a sad note, it is not unusual for Caucasians to be murdered, beaten half to death, (left to live out life with permanent disability), and/or sexually assaulted by locals. <br /><br />Jumped from behind by a band of such thugs, kicked in the head and kidneys.<br /><br />Kill Haole day is so pervasive,it is found in Wikipedia.<br /><br />It's the barbarism of the Islands. Then, too often crimes on Caucasians are covered-up in the courts.<br /><br />This was the case in the murder of witness, Aureo Moore. Supposedly, Mel Rapozo was a "Special Investigator" hired and paid with Kauai Tax $$$$, by Prosecutor. Compelling evidence, to the murder of Moore, was supressed.<br /><br />The derogatory term for a "local" is "coconut head." But, one local can call another local a "coconut head." It's kinda like one black person calling another the "N" word. However, a Caucasian calling a local a "coconut head?"<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653777241725644144.post-25869294031122385152013-06-30T20:23:54.972-10:002013-06-30T20:23:54.972-10:00not there's anything wrong with that!not there's anything wrong with that!KimoRosenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18361372081221232289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8653777241725644144.post-42929040242033551132013-06-30T20:23:41.879-10:002013-06-30T20:23:41.879-10:00via Facebook," You're just a contrarian.&...via Facebook," You're just a contrarian."Chuck Laskernoreply@blogger.com
