Jay Severin, Right Wing Radio Host for Boston's WTKK-FM, Suspended After Calling Mexicans "Criminaliens," "World's Lowest Primitives"

Right wing talk show host Jay Severin, of Boston's WTKK-FM radio station, was suspended yesterday after calling Mexican immigrants "criminaliens," "primitives,""leeches" and exporters of "women with mustaches and VD," among other mean comments. He was suspended indefinitely from his afternoon drive-time show. There is an ugly movement underway within the right wing community to smear the Mexicans for this flu outbreak -- Michelle Malkin, Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, Neal Boortz and others. It is mean spirited and amounts to hate mongering and racism.

In one of his broadcasts this week, Severin said: "So now, in addition to venereal disease and the other leading exports of Mexico - women with mustaches and VD - now we have swine flu."Later, he described Mexicans as "the world's lowest of primitives."

"When we are the magnet for primitives around the world - and it's not the primitives' fault by the way, I'm not blaming them for being primitives - I'm merely observing they're primitive," he said. He added that Mexicans are destroying schools and hospitals in the United States. He also criticized their hygiene. "It's millions of leeches from a primitive country come here to leech off you and, with it, they are ruining the schools, the hospitals, and a lot of life in America," he said.

He added: "We should be, if anything, surprised that Mexico has not visited upon us poxes of more various and serious types already, considering the number of criminaliens already here."

In a previous broadcast this week, Severin argued that the Obama administration wasn't taking sufficient action to seal the border. "The usual 5,000 criminaliens that come across the Arizona border will probably be 8,000 tonight, and maybe tomorrow it will be 12,000, because even Mexicans are going to be trying to get out of Mexico at a greater rate."

If this isn't racist then I don't know what else is. This should not be tolerated and he should be fired from his job and not merely suspended for making such comments. Apparently he is no stranger to controversy. During a 2004 broadcast, he compared U.S. Muslims to a fifth column and when a caller suggested that the United States should befriend Muslims, Severin responded: "You think we should befriend them; I think we should kill them." He is also a fraud, who like Rush Limbaugh, seem to forget that people remember their shortcomings as well. He falsely stated that he had won a Pulitzer Prize and that he earned a master's degree from Boston University. All the advertisers should pull their commercials from that statement until he is fired, not apologize, fired.

First 100 Days Celebration - Change Is Now - Video Viewing Party

Join Ivy Writer Media & Stratus Digital Marketing in this one of a kind, online video viewing party, in honor of President Barack Obama's 100th day in Office on April 28, 2009.

The President has been hard at work, taking us from "Yes We Can" to "Change Is Now" , putting his campaign promises into action! It's going to take more time, after all he does have four years to put all of his goals and vision into place, so let's be patient.

Let's back him up and continue to show our support by hanging in there with him through the ups and downs of this recession and by continuing to be inspired by his message of change as he moves our country forward.

And what better person to lead the charge than the legendary Stevie Wonder with his new single, "All About The Love Again", from the Change Is Now CD from Hidden Beach Recordings. For the first time ever, Stevie Wonder departs from his label, Motown Records, to assist in this commemorative project, and offers viewers a fun, animated, refreshing, and reflective video. You can get your copy of the Change Is Now CD at http://www.hiddenbeach.com/changeisnow

Michael J. Mitchell, African American Teen, Shoots Dan Azeff Because he Wore Hat with Confederate Symbol and Carried Confederate Flag

Wearing the Confederate Flag as a fashion statement may not be a good idea. Well, at least not to Michael J. Mitchell. According to the Sun Sentinel, Mitchell and a group of friends were hanging out at a popular nighttime gathering spot in Sarasota, when they ran into Dan A. Azeff, who was also hanging out with his buddies. Azeff, however, wore a hat with the Confederate symbol and carried a Confederate flag, which reportedly measured about five feet by three feet. Mitchell reportedly shot Azeff in the chest as a result of the confrontation.

Michael J. Mitchell and a friend asked Azeff about the hat and flag and then asked if he was a racist. Azeff told them no, he was just exercising free speech. The fight escalated and the groups exchanged racial slurs. Mitchell reportedly pulled out a handgun and shot Azeff once in the chest, then ran off, reports the Sarasota Herald Tribune. Azeff was fascinated by the rebel flag, his grandfather said. "But he did not know what it truly meant. To him it was just a flag."

So, Azeff just accessorized with the Confederate flag oblivious to its meaning, good and bad? Wow. That's akin to wearing a swastika without a clue who Adolf Hitler was? Kid, do yourself a favor and take up a history book some time. His grandfather made reference to the fact that he seem to be hanging around the wrong crowd, hence the Confederate symbols and to many, that is considered race baiting. Well, his actions fall within the freedom of speech clause in our Constitution, and though totally disgusting, his actions were legal.

To Michael Mitchell, would you like someone to shoot you in the chest because of a flag? This young man is a student at the Sarasota Military Academy and his coach, Sgt. Major Mike Collis, said that Mitchell's involvement in the scuffle was "completely unexpected and completely out of character." Really? Why is this teen running around with a gun and why would he carry one to hang out with his friends, unless of course, he was looking for trouble? He needs to be held accountable for the shooting of this man. Pulling the trigger on a gun is no way to solve conflicts and I guess this begs the question of whether or not his parents knew he had a gun to begin with.
