FSU RECRUITS BANNED FROM DISNEY
We been done seen ’bout everythang now! Four Florida State recruits booted from Disney World’s Downtown Disney in Orlando claim the park is guilty of racial profiling after they were asked to leave for “loitering” there last weekend.

Disney boots FSU recruits for being tall, black, and stationary.
The recruits were at the park as part of a “bonding” weekend for five high schoolers who have already given oral commitments to the Seminoles when four of them were followed for “an hour and a half to two hours” and then asked to leave the park. The four refused, and were then allegedly fingerprinted by Disney cops (do they wear Mickey gloves?), photographed, and then banned for life from ever returning to the Disney World Property.
The four got the boot thanks to Disney’s loitering policy, which the Orlando Sentinel reports has been used in 46 cases to ban patrons for life. Of those 46, 45 were Black or Hispanic, but that shouldn’t surprise you since white people don’t loiter. Haven’t you ever seen one of us? We be walking around with our butt all tight up in our ass and shit, uptight like we got somethin’ to do, talkin’ like “Noh noh nyoh noh nyoh.” Shit, y’all know what I’m talkin’ ’bout! And have you ever dated a lady with a dirty booty? Like someone who hasn’t washed they ass? HAAAAAAAHHHHhhhhh (Cue to cut to shot of overweight woman in audience, laughing like she’s being tasered by Bernie Mac.)
Def Comedy Jam interlude concluded, Disney police kicking out black kids for being black should ask whether any of them have civil rights lawyers for parents–because one did, and they’re demanding an apology.
“And how can you trespass someone in Downtown Disney for walking around? I’ve been there before, and that’s why it’s there.”
Another parent was a Disney employee. The four admitted to making “smart remarks” but were by all other accounts not specifically rude or threatening, even when they tried to sneak into Pleasure Island, Disney’s adult district and home of Club Dickey-Mickey, Disney’s Euro-style Sex Club. If there’s ever a suit filed over this whole business, this must constitute the central point of how harmless these four high-schoolers were: they believed they could have sneaky fun at Pleasure Island. No one’s had fun at Pleasure Island since Bobby Brown got hammered and pissed in the back of a squad car on the way out of Pleasure Island.
We’d suggest that part two of their case against Disney be this clip from Dumbo:
And not a single Bowden plantation joke in the whole post…we been done seen bout everything!

This isn’t news, we all knew Disney was racist, as seen by that clip at the very least, and “Song of the South” – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_of_the_South at the most.
Added to that fact, Disney was the catalyst for pretty much the most soulless and vapid city in the USA – Orlando.

IMO, there is no organization more sensitive to public image than Disney. In context, there have been several violent attacks recently in the WDW area. Also, there may have been complaints from other guests about threatening ‘pack behavior’. Finally, WDW is the entertainment equivalent of Augusta National and can invite and exclude. Nonetheless, this kind of crap makes for good reading b/c of it’s ‘injustice’ . How long do you think it will be until the inevitable lawsuit is filed? I give it 5 days, but it won’t come from a local law firm. They know WDW has the will and resources
to defend itself and not ’settle’. Hell, Disney would probably parade out a band of blind, black, gay, dwarf defence attorneys in wheelchairs with green oxygen tanks just to highlight their committment to diversity. The ‘victims’ in this case can go f themselves with a caramel candy apple and wipe off with pink cotton candy.

I heard that after they were arrested they were seated and forced at gun point to watch hours and hours of the NBA. That way the NBA’s Neilsen Ratings would double and they could justify the hours and hours of coverage.
If they resisted they were moved into solitary confinment and forced to watch reruns of old Big Ten football game on ESPN Classic. If you ask for an non-bowl SEC game you are cracked on the knuckles with a ruler.

It’s just as well these young men weren’t attempting to dance with one another, or WDW would have been forced to taser the shit out of them… that’s only allowed on the specific gay days, U suspect. Maybe the park could establish official “African American Youth” days as well, to clear up any confusion about who is allowed to do what when. It’s worked well for the pedophiles, but then every day is pedophile day at WDW.
Oh, and #10, WDW is in no way like Augusta National, since it is predicated on 1) access to paying members of the public, and 2) is in fact the civic authority for the land it occupies.

The best summation I’ve heard of regarding Disney is that they never rip you off but they never give you a good deal either. They are masters at pricing things just high enough that you squirm and hate it but still pay.
When I was driving in to work this morning the topic on the radio was CCILF’s (cartoon characters). I had a student a couple of years ago who was both a princess at Disneyland and an Anaheim Angels cheerleader. I think she got booted from both jobs when she turned 22
