pavman Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 A black congresswoman reportedly complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian sounding names. She would prefer some names that reflect African-American culture, such as Chamiqua, Tanisha, Woeisha, Shaqueal, and Jamal. She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in language that street people can understand because one of the problems in New Orleans is that regular folks couldn' t understand the seriousness of the situation due to the racially biased language of the weather report. I can hear it now: A Houston weatherman says: "Wazzup, dudes Hehr-i-cane Chamiqua be headin ' fo ' yo *** like Leroy on a crotch rocket! Bitch be a category fo ' ! So grab yo ' chirren, yo ' Ho, be leavin yo crib, and head fo ' da nearest guv ' ment office fo yo FREE ****!" :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
