Rep Rangel: Draft Them Into Street Gangs!!
Posted by RightWingDuck at 12:40 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (13)

New York Representative Charles Rangel today amended his previous statement that we should reinstate the draft. “It was my contention that the world would be safer if we knew that rich white people, like certain ones in congress, would be less likely to declare war if they knew their own kids would be drafted.”

Today, Mr. Rangel added a new change to his proposed legislation. “In addition to being drafted into the armed services, I feel that youngsters should also be drafted into local street gangs.”

According to latest statistics, very few rich white people join street gangs. Their numbers are mostly composed of young Latino and African-American males. Said Rangel, “I feel that by drafting rich white men into these groups, we could make our streets safer. Cops might not care about shooting Carlos and Jamal, but they might think twice about sending a hail of bullets into a gang if they knew they might accidentally kill Biff and Chip. This way, law enforcement would truly think about any impact their crime fighting actions might have.”

Democrats hailed this as an amazingly progressive political move. “I’ve never been prouder in my life to be a Democrat and an American,” said one leading Democrat who declined to be identified. “Of course, not everyone agrees with joining gangs, so we would offer exemptions for those who couldn’t join because of religious reasons, or because they looked awful in either red or blue.”

When asked how swelling the numbers of gang members could have any postiive benefti to society Rangel stated: "I don't have to answer that. We won the elections."

Everyone's a victim in the new world order...

"'I’ve never been prouder in my life to be a Democrat and an American,' said one leading Democrat who declined to be identified"

If he's so proud to be a democrat, then why didn't he want to be identified?!

I'm a proud American because I was also a gangsta. At least until the gangstas started to commit atrocities in a manner reminiscent of Gengis... uuuhh, I mean Tookie Williams. Did you know that I was in Compton??

OOOO, Love the "TopHat" look!! Very snazzy! But does this mean Uncle Sam, Abe Lincoln, Larry the Cucumber and Mr. Peanut were all gang members?

I just want to know if he has Little Gang Members A, B, C and D under that hat.

Now, THAT was when white people were tough, mean SOB's. Heck, if I was an Al Queda nut job, I would not want to fight "Butcher Bill", would you?

You're a Jet all the way

Is it just me, or does the guy on the far right of the picture look like John McCain?

I believe that Rep. Alcee Hastings (D - wherever there's a payoff) is proposing that the Bureau of Labor Statistics be renamed the "B-Labor", that the consumer price index be renamed "Price-T" and that the head of the Federal reserve change his name to "B-Bern".

This almost reads like a comedy routine. Someone tell me I'm incredibly dense and don't realize half this article is satire. Otherwise we've got a member of Congress spouting pure unadulterated racist BS and getting pats on the back from his fellow party members. All because he "takes on whitey".

Nothing like playing the race care whenever you can get away with it. Phooey!

Ah, the notorious Ass-Hatter gang of old.

These white gangs never did really disappear though. They found crony capitalism much more profitable and eventually evolved into philanthropic front organizations like the Shriners and Moose Lodger’s. I’m told rare photographs exist of these guys riding around and around on really small horses in circles distributing cigars, liquor and narcotics to crowds. This also accounts for the past popularity of rowdy Irish parades. Of course this was back when a man was allowed complete ownership of whatever he could keep upon his head. After all, a man’s noggin literally is his castle. This was all decades before the infamous Carmen Miranda decision of 1935 allowing the search and seizure of obnoxious and inappropriate headgear and any other contraband balanced on one’s head.

Obviously the colors of the rich whit gangs would have to be Pink and Seafoam Green. The Mayflowers and the Gators.

#12 - Posted by: PWT on November 21, 2006 09:43 AM

The Republican leadership had better get on this ASAP! I've been waiting for white gangs to reemerge for a while and I don't want the Democratic party defining it.

Secondly, our party should propose to bring back Fedoras. Or, not really propose, they should just show up to Congress in Fedoras, preempt the Dems on this front right away. Start drawing the Elephant with a Fedora. Start handing them out instead of pamphlets.
