"Gangsters, these are men who embraced who they are and decided to make something out of it. They did not wait for a handout or wait for Teri Hatcher to say the wrong thing, so they can force ABC to pay for 'diversity scholarships.'"
I honestly thought that the "Filipino community" (read: upper middle class interests) would keep the protest at diversity scholarships. And then they pull this sh*t.
Filipinos Sue ABC for $500 Million
I have to ask, "Why would I support this lawsuit?"
Will I see any penny from this $500 million? Will my Filipino mailmen experience any riches beyond belief? How does my secretary mom and construction inspection dad who work for the State get a piece of the action? How about my Tagalog teacher? Will she get $500 million too?
NO!
The money goes to a very small upper middle class demographic of the entire Filipino-American community. You're the mofos who moved out of the city and moved to the suburbs to let your people rot. And what other implications can we expect? Without $500 million dollars, ABC will be forced to make shows of a significantly lesser quality that you will probably end up watching just so you can wait on another white person to say something racist and you can sue them again. Meanwhile, I have to deal with you ig'nants for watching such reality shows and making me look bad. Also, with the upper middle class already cakin', the last thing I need is for you to have $500 million in your pocket so you can give your kids a fixed-up rice rocket and have them act like they're better than Filipinos who actually work for their sh*t and have higher priorities than what you drive. And what about Mychal Bell of the Jena 6 whose family didn't have enough money to post $90,000 bail for being a blatant victim of racism as opposed to what you are going through? Why do you deserve 5555 times more money than him? What else? Oh yeah, did I mention that you haven't earned this $500 million at all?
“What’s important here is that this is sending a message to the other producers, the other stations that if you do this, this is what’s going to happen," said lawyer Rodel Rodis.
Yeah we're sending a message alright, that we're some thievin' motherfuckers.

Nice. I don't know if you've read my take on this, but suing ABC is probably the dumbest thing I have ever heard. If anything, this gives the message that "you can say whatever you want, as long as you pay me some money."
