No!  Bad family!  This whole thing is seriously not cool, and doubly so for me because I have a toddler nephew.

I read "Omaha" as "Obama".  It wasn't until I clicked the link that I realised my mistake. Now I'm disappointed lol.

It looks like the video isn't on the page you linked to anymore. Here's another copy I found on Youtube.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq5HyCm_7b0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq5HyCm_7b0</a>

When I was looking it up I found this video by TYT covering this.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EfcylBfMlo" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EfcylBfMlo</a>

I disagree with the TYT video. Does calling this a "thug cycle" have racial connotations? Yeah. Does that mean this kid isn't being raised in a way that will likely cause him to become a stereotypical "thug"? No.  I've seen the "trailer trash cycle" enough to know this isn't some race exclusive thing. Shitty parents raising their kid to be just as shitty isn't something any group has a monopoly on.

Also, did that video say this kid is "from Douche 9"? Your "hood" is called Douche 9?
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

Could have meant "Deuce 9"  Like 29 or something.  Hell, I don't know.

As usual, I agree with most of what Ana Kasparian said. What's happening in the video is inappropriate, but if this were white parents teaching swears to their children, it's doubtful that the police would have paid much attention to the video, much less assumed that the child was going to grow up to be a criminal or that the parents were "thugs" perpetuating some kind of cycle. Most likely you'd just get a couple random people pointing out that it was inappropriate and would teach the kid to be foul-mouthed, and that would be the end of it.

"All kids curse."

True; kids do explore "naughty" words at one point.  But 2-year-olds do not ask for pussy unless they've been specifically taught to.  Shame on these parents.

Sadly, the FAUX Noyze crowd has latched onto this for their own hateful purposes.....

Waddaya know, it's Ms. White Santa herself!

Last night, I was making a snack when my Dad was watching the FAUX freaks & Bill O'Reilly brought this up during a discussion on unemployment insurance or something. Cue epic facepalm from yours truly.

My Dad used to be somewhat reasonable & a politically moderate, Democratic voter & Clinton-defender....Then he was assimilated by the Far-Right Borg Collective.

Here's another article on this.....
