John Rocker: Still a Fucking Idiot
September 25, 2006 Uncategorized
ASSIMILATE, BITCHES. I love the irony of John Rocker starting a movement to tell immigrants how to act. The same John Rocker who, in 1999, said:
On ever playing for a New York team: “I would retire first. It’s the most hectic, nerve-racking city. Imagine having to take the [Number] 7 train to the ballpark, looking like you’re [riding through] Beirut next to some kid with purple hair next to some queer with AIDS right next to some dude who just got out of jail for the fourth time right next to some 20-year-old mom with four kids. It’s depressing.”
On New York City itself: “The biggest thing I don’t like about New York are the foreigners. I’m not a very big fan of foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?”
By the way, this is the image he’s using on his website to hock the shirts. Pinche idiota.

Why is it satire when Kinky says it and hate-mongering when John Rocker says it?
They are both entertainers, que no?
*PSHHH* please. John Rocker is a bone-headed, illiterate, bigot, douche whereas Kinky is at least a funny, educated, literate douche who understands that deprecation (of oneself or another) can be used as a comical construction. Nice (semantic) try though.
John Rocker. Man that guy really needs to go away.
The chick is cute though. Please tell me that is not his girlfriend.
The guy is absolutely correct.
