Macaca Meets Bambi

Well, it’s just the gift that keeps on giving, n’est pas? Felix was a Thug before Thug was cool:
Shelton said Allen used the N-word only around white teammates when they played for the Cavaliers in the early 1970s. Allen was a quarterback; Shelton a tight end and wide receiver.

During a deer hunt with Allen in the early 1970s, Shelton said, Allen asked whether black families lived in the area and stuffed the severed head of a female deer into a black household’s oversized mail box.

“George insisted on taking the severed head, and I was a little shocked by that,” Shelton said.

“This was just after the movie “The Godfather” came out with the severed horse’s head in the bed,” Shelton told the AP.

I may need to follow Felix more closely when I’m in the area. How charming. Now, if a Macaca-American did this, would it be “terrorism?” So hard to keep track these days.

UPDATE: My brilliant friends at the Crack Den remind us that, while “deerheadinthemailboxmacaca” is cumbersome, Senator George Felix “Macacorleonestein” Allen, Jr. is perfectly appropriate.
