TO THOSE WHO DON'T WANT THEIR WORK PROMOTED

Hey guys and gals! We FIND and PROMOTE people's work, we never take credit for things we haven't written, we just love sharing the things that are interesting, but if you don't want your work or pictures shown, please let me know and I'll take it off, we're not trying to harm any one here or infringe on anyone's copyrights, just late night entertainment for my friends and I after a long days of work.

We're not making money off the site, nor are we publishing anything to other places through feedburner claiming that it's our work, just a hobby of finding cool things around the internet, that's all. Sometimes we copy and paste too quickly and a link giving you credit doesn't appear, if that's the case and you DO want your work promoted, we will add in the backlink, we would love to give credit where credit is due!

Please contact me or drop a comment on any posts you guys don't want up and I'll take it off within 24 hours, thanks!

Florida apologies for slavery... should the United States? | redblueamerica.com

MAN, WHAT IF THEY DO, AND DAVE CHAPELLE'S THEORY BECOMES TRUE? MAJOR ECONOMIC BOOST? FUBU/KFC MERGER? 3000+ RECORD COMPANIES STARTED WITHIN 24 HOURS?

Florida's legislature formally apologized Wednesday for the state’s “shameful” history of slavery, joining five other states that have expressed public regret for what Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama recently called America’s “original sin.”

The two-page resolution passed overwhelmingly in the Senate and then the House, bringing at least one lawmaker to tears. Gov. Charlie Crist, a Republican, called it a “significant step” toward reconciliation.

More than 140 years after the abolition of slavery, and four decades since the Civil Rights Movement culminated with sweeping civil rights legislation, are apologies useful? Do Americans whose ancestors never owned slaves bear any responsibility? Would a national apology for slavery heal lingering wounds? Should Americans consider reparations for slavery?
