NICE: Georgia Official Skips Bible, Takes Oath With Raised Fist On Malcolm X Autobiography

[easyt65]

"Mariah Parker was sworn in as Athens-Clarke County’s District 2 Commissioner on Monday, but instead of a Bible or the U.S. Constitution, Parker asked to swear in on a well-worn copy of “The Autobiography Of Malcolm X.”

Parker told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, “They asked if they would like the Bible and I said no. My mother asked if there was a copy of the Constitution around. No. I wanted Malcolm’s book. I think they saw it coming.”



Swearing an oath of loyalty on 'the word of Malcom X' above 'the words of God'

She admitted she had only finished reading the book just recently...if she thinks Malcom X came though hard times and learned more about loving people without letting things like race get in the way, she should really pick up the Bible and read it (more). Jesus was tortured, crucified on the cross for us, and in the end loved all of us - to include his assassins - so much that he asked God to forgive us - 'for they know not what they do'. She would learn a whole lot more that she could apply to her life than she wil ever learn in a book about Malcom X....

In MY humble Opinion....

She is filled with hate, racism, bigotry, prejudice, division. One can only feel sorrow for these empty hollow people.

...and for those she is about to represent.

There's a lot of racism in Georgia.

I do not really see the problem. If one does not believe in God, then the Bible is no different than any other book.

At least she gave a clear indication of what type of person she is, unlike Christians that wear a lambs skin to cover their wolf desires.

She'll get a wake up call, when she finds out who killed Malcom X and WHY.

I think you mean "if". If it took her a long time to read Malcolm X..eh..I've seen this before.

I could read Malcolm X in a day.

How about using the option of taking the oath on a copy of the constitution?

They don't believe in that either

Liberals are slowly making the tradition of taking an oath of loyalty 'moot' anyway. I mean Barry took one and several days later broke it by publicly declaring he was ordering his US AG to NOT defend /enforce the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) because HE did not disagree with a law passed by Congress.....

She is a bad person -- hopefully she will be arrested soon

I actually hope she isn't arrested but instead hope she continues to LEARN and turns out to be a good person and politician. God can work miracles...

Anyone who likes Malcolm X is a bad person and hates America -- she needs to be stopped and deported out of this country.

A better book would have been if she had the autobiography of George Lincoln Rockwell -- then she would have learned something about the greatness of this country.

Congratulations, GA. You elected somebody dumb as a stump to represent you.

Judge not, least you be judged.

Malcolm X's autobiography is actually a very interesting read. It was ghost written by Alex Haley, the author of Roots.

I greatly respect Malcolm's X's integrity. In fact, it was his integrity which got him killed.

It would not be a bad thing for this young woman to follow the example he set toward the end of his life.

Athens is a shithole. Only good thing there is UGA. My grandmother lives outside of Athens and I go down there quite a bit.
