Hank Aaron: Just Another Black Supremacist Moron; Says Any White Republican Who Opposes Obama’s Policies is as Bad as the KKK
Hall of Famer Hank Aaron waves to the crowd as he is honored on the 40th anniversary of his 715th homer prior to the game between the Atlanta Braves and the New York Mets at Turner Field on April 8, 2014 in Atlanta, Ga.
By Nicholas Stix
I was tempted to simply call Aaron “Just Another Racist Black Moron,” which surely would have suited some readers better, but look at what he said: Any white who in the slightest fashion opposes the genocidal black supremacist calling himself “Barack Obama” is no better than a Klansman.
If that isn’t black supremacism, I don’t know what is.
Aaron’s statement was so stupid, it could have been ghosted by the NAACP or Al Sharpton.
Aaron had left clues as to where his heart lay every few years. When Barry Bonds “broke” Aaron’s home run record by cheating, Aaron refused to denounce him. Aaron was clearly willing to let Bonds rob him of his record. The only explanation I saw then or now, is that Aaron feels loyalty to a black cheater, simply because the latter is also black.
Speaking to USA Today Tuesday on the 40th anniversary of his then record-breaking 715th home run, the 80-year-old Aaron said that Republicans are hindering Obama’s job performance.
“Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he’s treated,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.
[What a stupid, racist lie. The Republicans threw two consecutive elections for “Obama.” If that’s not enough for Aaron, nothing is.]
Aaron continued: “The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts.”
Aaron stated that there is still room for improvement for race relations in the U.S.
“We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements, but we still have a long ways to go in the country,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.
[Blah, blah, blah. He’s no better than any black shakedown artist who, after every hoax and successful extortion will only say, “It’s a start.”]
Aaron goes on to describe the racist letters he has kept for decades as he was chasing Babe Ruth’s home run record.
“To remind myself that we are not that far removed from when I was chasing the record,” Aaron explained to USA Today Sports. “If you think that, you are fooling yourself. A lot of things have happened in this country, but we have so far to go. There’s not a whole lot that has changed.”
[Non sequitur alert: What do some nasty letters he received 40 years ago prove about then or now? Did anyone stop him from playing in the big leagues; from at one time being its highest paid player; from breaking Babe Ruth’s home run record?]
By the way, I could have sworn that I’d read that Aaron had received death threats. That issue needs to be revisited, in light of media hate crime hoaxes in recent years, in which alleged reporters asserted that a member of a protected group had received “death threats,” when it turned out that people had only wished death on the person in question. A death threat entails someone saying, “I’m going to kill you,” as opposed to someone expressing the hope that someone else will kill you.
No one even came close to attempting violence against Hank Aaron, then or since.
At American Renaissance, baldowl waxed ironic, turning Oprah Winfrey and Tim Wise on their heads:
We'll be a lot better off when all these old racists have died out.
To which Einsatzgrenadier responded,
America is becoming the 3rd world nation its government always wanted it to be, at least since the beginning of JFK's presidency. What will blacks do when those welfare payments stop coming and there are no more jobs left because there are no more old white racists to keep the system running? If the white liberals are unwilling to wean blacks off that government nipple, the mestizos surely will.
Chimed in Don Reynolds:
Aaron continued: “The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts.”
What a coincidence! Back then.....THEY wore neckties and starched shirts. Now they have hoodies and a gold grill. The marchers stopped carrying the Bible too. I wonder if that is the bigger difference from today?
Every time a wildly successful black supremacist like Aaron lets his enjoyment of Jim Snow go to his head, and unwittingly reveals the racist hatred in his heart, he loses the good will of millions of fair-minded whites.
As Countenance observed,
He’s complaining about all the abuse he supposedly took at the hands of rabid bigoted white people as he was nearing and ultimately surpassed Babe Ruth in the career HR tally.
Except this happened in the early 1970s and did in 1974; by then, the white had been washed out of white people.
Don’t you know that every black person who does something the least bit civil rightsey and social justicey had to endure miles and miles of fire hoses and hundreds and hundreds of rabid, snarling police dogs and dozens of attempted lynchings and a few KKK firebombings along the way? Just as there were a hundred million people who marched from Selma to Montgomery and a billion people at the March on Washington. People who haven’t even been born yet were at those two events.
I think this home run king issue is a pretty good litmus test, by which to sniff out black supremacists. Two or three years ago, I was talking with the elderly black man (he’s about 70 now) who grew up down South, who does custodial work as a contractor in my neighborhood and others in the Rockaway area, and with whom I had had a cordial relationship for many years. We’d had many long conversations, including about how things are falling apart economically and morally. And he did criticize Obamacare. (So, Aaron is even worse than him.)
I said that Bonds should never be admitted into the Hall of Fame, any more than cheaters like Roger Clemens should (see, I threw him that bone), and that Hank Aaron was the true home run king. All, in vain. His response was, “They all cheat.”
At the time, I thought he meant all players. Now, I suspect that “they” meant something else.
That was the last long conversation we ever had.
Hank Aaron Compares Republicans That Oppose Obama to KKK

ATLANTA (CBS Atlanta/AP) — Baseball Hall of Famer Hank Aaron compared Republicans that oppose President Barack Obama to the Ku Klux Klan.
Speaking to USA Today Tuesday on the 40th anniversary of his then record-breaking 715th home run, the 80-year-old Aaron said that Republicans are hindering Obama’s job performance.
“Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he’s treated,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.
Aaron continued: “The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts.”
Aaron stated that there is still room for improvement for race relations in the U.S.
“We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements, but we still have a long ways to go in the country,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.
Aaron goes on to describe the racist letters he has kept for decades as he was chasing Babe Ruth’s home run record.
“To remind myself that we are not that far removed from when I was chasing the record,” Aaron explained to USA Today Sports. “If you think that, you are fooling yourself. A lot of things have happened in this country, but we have so far to go. There’s not a whole lot that has changed.”
Aaron was honored before the Braves game against the New York Mets on Tuesday night with a ceremony commemorating the 40th anniversary of his 715th home run, the one that pushed him past Babe Ruth and gave him the major league record.
Aaron finished with 755 home runs, but was eventually passed on the career list by Barry Bonds, whose career was tarnished by steroids allegations. Bonds has 762 homers, but many baseball fans don’t accept that number and stand by Aaron as the true record-holder.
[Note that the anonymous CBS “reporter” refuses to mention that Aaron himself refuses to challenge Bonds’ fraudulent status as the home run king. It’s those terrible white people who care so much about giving Aaron his just due, not his black brothers and sisters, and not Aaron himself!]
Speaking with reporters after the ceremony, Selig was asked about Aaron being called the true home run king.
“I’m always in a sensitive spot there, but I’ve said that myself and I’ll just leave it at that,” Selig said.
During the ceremony Braves chairman Terry McGuirk said Aaron “set the home-run record the old-fashioned way” and added “You will always be the home run king of all time.”
Retired Braves broadcaster Pete Van Wieren earned a big ovation when he said Aaron is “still recognized as baseball’s true home run king.”
Aaron, 80, was given a standing ovation in the ceremony before the game. Aaron broke Ruth’s record with his homer on April 8, 1974, off the Dodgers’ Al Downing.
Downing attended the ceremony and threw out the first pitch. Some of Aaron’s 1974 teammates returned, including Dusty Baker, who was on-deck when the record-breaking homer was hit, Ralph Garr, Phil Niekro, Ron Reed, Marty Perez and Tom House, who caught the homer in the bullpen.
Aaron thanked fans “for all your kindness all these many years.” Aaron, recovering from recent hip-replacement surgery, used a walker.
“The game of baseball was a way that I relaxed myself each year that I went on the field for 23 years,” Aaron said. “I gave baseball everything that I had, everything, every ounce of my ability to play the game I tried to play to make you the fans appreciate me more. Thank you.”
Selig, Aaron’s longtime friend, established the Hank Aaron Award in 1999 to honor the top hitter in each league. He called Aaron’s 715th homer “the most famous and treasured record in American sports.”
Selig said Aaron was a worthy successor to Ruth as home-run king “because he is the living embodiment of the American spirit. … Baseball is forever our national pastime because of people like Henry Aaron.”
[Bull. He hates America.]
The Braves wore their 1970s era white-and-blue uniforms, complete with small “a” caps, in tribute to Aaron. The Braves are wearing an Aaron 40th anniversary patch on their uniform sleeves this season.
The numbers “715″ were painted on the outfield grass, stretching from left-center to right-center.
The Braves unveiled Aaron jerseys from other college and professional teams in the Atlanta area. Falcons owner Arthur Blank, former Georgia coach and athletic director Vince Dooley and former Georgia Tech coach Bill Curry were among those who stood with their teams’ jerseys adorned with Aaron’s name and No. 44.
The outfield was filled with [predominantly white] fans, each wearing blue 44 Braves jerseys and each holding baseball-shaped signs bearing numbers from 1 to 715.
The problem is NOT that blacks act supremacist--they have since the 60s--but as blacks became more militant,Whites have become LESS supremacist about their own race.THAT'S the killer of what's happening the last few years.Whites on TV(pols, entertainers,broadcasters)decrying White opposition to being set up for a White Wipeout.The process of setting this up for implementation is occurring now and any White who doesn't see what's playing out and understand the ramifications is definitely not a racist--but he IS STUPID.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't act protective of your own race--you will die--AS A RACE--that goes for everyone on the planet.

DIABETES,COVID "GETS" LARRY KING AT AGE 87
ReplyDeleteG R A:As I said,at the time it was reported he contracted Covid,how--as a caretaker--could you allow an elderly guy like King to be exposed to the possibility of catching this?Very entertaining radio shows back in the day.
Jan. 23 (UPI) — Broadcasting legend Larry King died Saturday at a hospital in Los Angeles, his production company announced. He was 87.
A statement from Ora Media didn’t give a cause of death, but he had been receiving treatment for COVID-19.
“With profound sadness, Ora Media announces the death of our co-founder, host and friend Larry King, who passed away this morning at age 87 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles,” the production company said.
The famed interviewer, who had Type 2 diabetes, had been hospitalized since late December, his family said earlier this month.
His career in radio, TV, newspapers and digital media lasted more than six decades and earned him induction into the National Radio Hall of Fame, an Emmy Award, two Peabody Awards and 10 Cable ACE Awards.
The native New Yorker most notably hosted Larry King Live from 1985 to 2010 on CNN, then Larry King Now from 2012 to 2020 on Hulu and RT America. He never formally retired.
King also wrote a newspaper column for USA Today and authored the books My Remarkable Journey and My Dad & Me.
He was a prolific tweeter and appeared as himself in numerous films and TV shows, including Ghostbusters, Dave, Primary Colors, Enemy of the State, America’s Sweethearts, Shrek 2, Shrek the Third, Murphy Brown, Spin City, The Practice, Everybody Loves Raymond, Ugly Betty, The Closer, Big Love Law and Order: Criminal Intent, The Simpsons and 30 Rock.
“He coaxed, rather than challenged, and the result, while not always groundbreaking, was always interesting and smart,” said Tom Rosenstiel, executive director of the American Press Institute, about King’s interview style.
“His dirty little secret was he was a much more intelligent guy than he let on, and a much better listener than most people in television. But he really believed that his guest was the star, and his job was to help reveal that star to the audience."

ReplyDeleteAh yes, the "racist" letters, a mere 6 or so out of thousands and sent by who exactly? Love to see the return address on those envelopes, if there is a legit one that is. I'd be willing to bet any amount of money that most of those letters were sent by negro's, not whites.
I remember well that Aaron was disliked by the press (at that time) because he was surly, uncooperative, and sometimes actually hostile towards them. I also won a bet with myself that the NYT obit would have "racism" in its headline, and sure enough...
ReplyDelete"He’s complaining about all the abuse he supposedly took at the hands of rabid bigoted white people as he was nearing and ultimately surpassed Babe Ruth in the career HR tally."
ReplyDeleteDuring the time when he nearing the home run record he received about 2,000 letters from fans and by the accounting of Aaron himself at the time only six of them were nasty.
