George Takei: Justice Clarence Thomas Is a "Clown in Blackface"

Rule number one: Don't piss off George Takei. Rule number two: refer to rule number one.

George Takei got heated when speaking to Phoenix's Fox 10 News about Justice Clarence Thomas' dissent on the Supreme Court's legalization of same-sex marriage last week.

"He is a clown in blackface sitting on the Supreme Court," said Takei. "He gets me that angry.

He talked not only about slavery, but what his own family went through in the WW II years, and capped it off by saying;

"This man does not belong on the Supreme Court. He is an embarrassment. He is a disgrace to America."

Here's a video of the interview; [see at link]

1. I fully expect people to yell at me But I agree with George Takei on this one. Clarence Thomas is a clown.

5. He's the embarrassing white person that comes to the family reunion and tells racist jokes except he's black.

50. I think it really piques George because Not only is he a gay man, but his family was interned during WW II. He has plenty to be personally pissed about and doesn't need the likes of Ruckus telling him what dignity means.

George has become a caricature of himself. I personally like the guy (Sulu) and don't give a flyinf **** who he sleeps with- but he has become the poster child for the flaming gay man. "Oh, my...."

16. I guess I'll be in the minority here but It is never ok to refer to the color of someone's skin, especially when using it as an insult. You want to call him a clown? Fine! There are a million other ways to express anger at him without resorting to calling him a clown in blackface.

STFU, troll mutha ****a!

47. It's a response to the hypocrisy of the man.

And what do you mean it's "never ok to refer to the color of someone's skin?" What's with that? Are we supposed to pretend everyone is white? Are we supposed to pretend everyone is male? Are we supposed to pretend everyone is straight?

Being "colorblind" is white faced clownish racism. I never knew Martin Luther King Jr. was a racist! It's a refusal to recognize where other people are coming from. It's the "I have black friends, I have gay friends, I'm not a sexist pig," the big lie that many people tell themselves to absolve themselves of all responsibility for this society's problems with race and gender.

Takei is 100% correct in his observations, and justified in his anger.

Thomas hasn't got an ounce of dignity; if he had he would not have accepted a position on the Supreme Court.

Like George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan he's a venal fool, a puppet.

Yes. Racist comments are ok as long as they are targeted towards the right people... The RIGHT people.

22. Thurgood Marshall was a Titan of the law. Ruckus isn't fit to carry his briefcase much less sit in his seat.

19. If the shoe fits...

He's married to a white woman, which was illegal a generation ago, yet now he votes to deprive the LGBT community of the right to marry their loved ones.

He got through college, became a lawyer, and then a judge, and finally ended up on SCOTUS, because of Affirmative Action, yet he voted to gut the Voting Rights Act.

That is hypocrisy most foul.

And people wonder why he's called Uncle Thomas, or why George Takei said what he said. He's always following the lead of Massa Scalia.

Nigga ran off the plantation. He must pay!

58. Would clown with a white face be any different?

Truth is, the "clown with the black face" comment was integral to Thomas' quote about how slaves in the south (e.g. black faces) were dignified.

I'd be that pissed off, were I black, which I am not. How offensive is Clarence Thomas? For starters, he would rather be the clown and a go-along on every decision. He's more than proven himself about pubic hairs on coke can and sexual harassment of Anita Hill.

His wording was commensurate with Thomas Clarence.

48. Thomas deserves every insult in the book No holding back on this evil vile disgusting piece of excrement.

Hey, Buzzy? What do you think of the overt racism seen on DU? Is it ok to be racist if the people you hate are the other political party?

[JohnnyReb]

....and when a slave escaped the plantation, it was DUmmies that captured and returned him to be whipped into submission.

Anyone with an IQ above single digits (I know) can understand exactly what Justice Thomas was saying.

The stupidity it burns. Or it should.. If it did, this DUche  would self-immolate, and remove itself from the gene pool. 

[miskie]

I took some time out to read what Thomas wrote that pissed off Takei so much - and either Takei intentionally misrepresented what Thomas wrote, or reading comprehension isn't his strong suit.

to paraphrase, blacks who persevered throughout the time of slavery, segregation etc did so while maintaining their dignity as human beings. Not that being a slave is dignified.

Sulu supreme spokes person for the GayKK. 

They use to have some knock-out costumes for the female stars on Star Trek, apparently Sulu was more interested in 'the men in tights'.   Pity actually.

28. OMFG. It's the language police.

Takei was righteously angry and he called Thomas what he is.

Do I detect some racism and homophobia directed against Takei here?

I think I do.

Oh noes! Those people should be polite or they hurt their cause...

**** THAT bullshit.

Thomas is a big fat turd stinking up our Supreme Court.

Who the hell cares what color clown makeup he wears to disguise his turdishness?

In that sense, I think it was an accurate statement.

Orion slave girls bored him...

...but catamite pajama wrestling got his undivided attention.


Meanwhile, in an alternate universe...

Sulu was straight. That should have been a clue.

....and when a slave escaped the plantation, it was DUmmies that captured and returned him to be whipped into submission.

The story if br'er rabbit and the tar baby was for escaped slaves to not speak to other slaves who might betray them in order to curry favor with the master.

The Proglodytes who are cheering Gorge Tacky are exactly the sort of people the tale of the tar baby warned about.

It's even more absurd that Takei implied people in slavery or internment camps lacked dignity.

Well, I have long heard that Asians are some of the most racist people, I guess that goes for queer Asians as well.

Specifically the Japanese. - Not only does a majority consider themselves superior to other races, a majority consider themselves superior to other Asian people.

98.5% of Japan's population are Japanese, and my understanding is a large majority of them can trace their lineage to a single clan.

Let's see ...

Takei's humorous quips of various kinds are frequent fare in FacebookLand. How many are his and how many are from ghost writers is uncertain, but I suspect many are. OTOH, I'm not aware of much he's done there in Hollyweird, so he may really have that much time on his hands.

Takei recently informed "People" magazine or some similar celeb-centered outlet that he was POed at Shatner for not attending his "wedding". So I suppose Shatner is trying to mend some fences as well as being a standard-issue Hollyweird mouther-off.

Takei's "apology" doesn't really communicate any meaning. It basically means, "My thinking of Clarence Thomas hasn't changed, I just shouldn't have expressed it so clearly in public.

Takei is a standard-issue homosexual narcissist. He can't handle the thought that some one could disagree with him and refuse to affirm his lifestyle yet be a decent, honest, human being.
