| Watch out Japan - These fuckers are coming for you!! |
On Saturday, amid the tragic news that continued to pour out of Japan — a country rocked by the Sendai earthquake and tsunami — former Rutgers standout Cappie Pondexter offered an alternative explanation that has stirred some negative feedback.
"Alternative explanations" never seem to work out well. Either your Jesse Ventura claiming 9/11 was in inside job or you're offending millions of people. Besides all that "tectonic plate" bullshit floating around, what possible alternative explanations could she have come up with anyway?
1. Earth is on the back of a giant frog, tortoise, elephant or dog causing earthquakes when it moves?
2. The youngest child of the Earth goddess is moving in the womb that causes earthquakes?
3. Earthquakes are caused by dragons?
4. A colony of Giants living on a hidden island in the Pacific were doing cannonballs into the ocean?
5. There is a race of people living inside the Earth who shake the ground to find out if anyone is still living on the surface?
6. The Earth is a living creature, and it has the same kinds of problems people have. Sometimes, it gets sick with fever and chills and we can feel its shaking?
7. Strong, wild winds are trapped and held in caverns under the ground and when they escape, the earth trembles?
8. The square Earth is held up at its four corners by four people who, when they decide the Earth is becoming overpopulated, tip it to get rid of surplus people?
9. Earth is a pimple on the ass of a someone who farted in the shower?
No, that stuff would be completely ridiculous. Surely, she had a much more logical reason.
"What if God was tired of the way they treated their own people in there own country! Idk guys he makes no mistakes," the guard, now with the WNBA's New York Liberty, tweeted on her account, cappa23.
Or not. According to Ms. Pondexter, god is a smiting machine. Now that we've established that god got all smotey last week, the logical follow-up is why, exactly, would "he" do that?
"u just never knw!" she Tweeted later on. "They did pearl harbor so u can't expect anything less."
Ohhh, totally see it now. They really did do Pearl Harbor, didn't they. Glad god's out there like Rambo settling grudges for something that a whole different generation of Japanese people did on behalf of the good old U-S-of-A. Always new he loved us best. Must be because America has never, ever done anything like kill a bunch of people for no good reason. Wonder if she'll apologize?
"I wanna apologize to anyone I may hurt or offended during this tragic time. I didnt realize that my words could be interpreted in the manner which they were people that knw me would tell u 1st hand im a very spiritual person and believe that everything, even disasters happen 4 a reason and that god will shouldnt be questioned," Pondexter tweeted. "But this is a very sensistive subject at a very tragic time and I shouldnt even have given a reason for the choice of words I used.
Ok, that's not an apology. Just because you use the word "apologize" doesn't mean if qualifies. It's not the "interpretation" or "choice" of your words or even "bad timing." It's that you said that they were asking for it you asshole. Still, we have to give her points for standing by her stupidity, which puts her at approximately -574,967 for the week.
"If youve lost respect for me thats totally fine but please dont let me or my words lose the respect of u the WNBA and what it stands for."
Luckily for everyone involved, the WNBA was absolutely no respect to lose.
While Cappie is busy explaining god's apparent dislike for sushi, our commenters are showing off their hate for something entirely different.

Poindexter is nothing but a PIG. Japan is undergoing untold suffering, babies being swept into the sea, eventually 10,000 dead, etc., and this freakin' idiot refers to Pearl Harbor? Makes sense Cappie let's start holding everyone responsible for the misdeeds of their ANCESTORS! Why not start with those African tribes who right now, TODAY, are murdering anyone, including infants, from a rival group. Ooooooooooh, sorry, too close to home, or maybe not PC enough for your warped value system.
Couple things here. First, what's with the obsession with infanticide? Secondly, if we're blaming people for the deeds of their ancestors, wouldn't we have to wait like 60 years to yell at these unidentified "African Tribes"? Thirdly, is it really any better to assume that because Cappie happens to be African-American she's cool with murdering of people because it happens in Africa? Finally, Bocaburgers are fucking disgusting.

No way. I want her to resign her position and apologize to all of the Japanese Americans on Air. I also want her to write an essay about what the Japanese Americans had to go through during WWII all while her ancestors were learning to fly planes and have had about 20 movies made about African Americans contributions.--I also feel that she should have to sit out a season.---And "They DID PEARL HARBOR"? Nice english. Did she graduate with her taxpayer funded education?
What is this grammar school? We're forcing people to write essays, now? What re we going to do after recess, try to figure out why this fella thinks that every black person in American during WWII was either learning to fly a plane or selling their story for the movies. Talk about getting lucky.

So she got offended at idiot Don Imus' statements but has no problem blaming this natural disaster on Pearl Harbor? Then hide behind God? Nice tattoos. Real lady-like. As the great Austin Powers said: "THAT'S A MAN, BABY"
We would have gone with "Shh."

Imagine the uproar if it had been a white person making that statement.
Seriously, statements like that might help them become a rich televangelist or something.

If they fail to discipline her than I will never, NEVER, purchase another WNBA ticket as long as I live. Make an example of Cappie's racist comments.
And that would make you different then the rest of America, how? Everyone else is just taking a stand too. A stand against am incredibly boring sport.
hoochieman
Where is Sharpie Sharpton picketing outside Madison Square Garden?
Where is NBC, CBS and ABC railing against her?
Figures.
I guess this lady will get a pass because of her ignorance?
Her lack of knowledge? Wait she is a college graduate right?
That's what I thought. Another proud moment for Rutgers University.
What did she major in; Ebonics?
"They did pearl harbor so u can't expect anything less."
That's like saying I drove the slave ship to Jamestown Virginia.
Dumbo!
Baby elephant with big ears who's mother was wrongly imprisoned?
An acronym for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass?
You; decide.
Finally, someone who agrees with Ms. Poindexter.

Throughout the Bible, there are many examples that God punished evil person or evil nation not only on the earth, but after life too. Historically, Japanese invaded, killed 20 millions of innocent Asians during WWII, from South Asia to northern Asia including China and Korea. Though the Westerners and Americans know that Hitler killed 6 million Jews and 4 millions Europeans during WWII, and condemn America's Atomic bombing on Hiroshima, most of the people don't know how the Japanese invasion all over the Asia stopped. Most ignorant people don't know the fact only the atomic bombing could stopped the Japanese invasions and brutal colonization that was already going on in Asia more than 40 years (from 1905-1945) without international intervention. To stop this ongoing Japanese crime in Asia, America intervened and warned Japanese emperor, one week before atomic bombing, to stop all invasion, and gave up the forced colonization. Japanese refused, so America had to use the atomic bomb to stop their brutal invasions all over Asia. Finally after atomic bombing, more than 8 nations in Asia found their freedom again. Also Animal Channels broadcasted series of the ' "Whale War" about Japanese wales ships' unlawful fishing acts of whale around Arctic, where internationally whale protected zone. These Japanese ships were disguised as "research ship" but in fact there were commercial ships brutally killing countless whales days and nights. When international fishing regulation ships ( role as police)approached to Japanese ships to stop the violation, instead of keeping the laws, they started to shoot against these humanitarian regulatory ships which don't have any guns or weapon equipments. Japanese' out-law attitude like this frustrate me deeply as one of the global citizen. Somehow Japanese seem they can kill, invade, and attack other nations, or animals whenever or wherever they feel like.
To me God is just as He says in the bible all over , and punishes evil acts.

Despite coming from one "of the global citizen" with an obvious mastery of pluralization and grammar as well as a clear familiarity with the always educational "Animal Channels" (Cablevision Channel 148, of course), we remain unconvinced. While we're not blind to the impact that the killing of "whales days and nights" has on their social lives, our research just doesn't the whole "retribution theory."
