Grab your picket signs! Three White male teachers in Los Angeles have been suspended after mocking Black History Month during a parade at the school last week. The elementary school, which is 90% Hispanic, was putting on a Black History Month parade where the children would carry pictures of famous African-Americans. All Hell broke loose when this trio of Noodle Noggins decided to make a jokey joke and have three children carry images of controversial Black celebs Dennis Rodman (B-Ball Player Gone Wild), RuPaul (A Fierce Bitch In Drag), and OJ Simpson (NFL Legend-Turned-Accused-Deranged Killer).

Mayer raised eyebrows Wednesday with an excessively-candid chat in which he makes crass remarks about former girlfriend Jessica Simpson, declares that his dick “don’t do Black,” and uses the phrase “Nigger Pass” in a jovial nature.

Oh John, we know you’re prone to idiotic comments, but you’ve really outdone yourself this time. Over the last 24 hours, the dickhead has managed to spread his tomfoolery far and wide by spurting racist comments, offensive language, and entirely too much information about his sex life.
