There are some great ones in here; Hunchback, Treasure Planet, and Meet the Robinsons are all in the top ten favorites for me.
Fantasia 2000 is fucking beautiful.
To My Father, written by Abdullah Thani Faris al Anazi, a Guantanamo Bay Detainee -
Two years have passed in far-away prisons,
Two years my eyes untouched by kohl.
Two years my heart sending out messages
To the homes where my family dwells,
Where lavender cotton sprouts
For grazing herds that leave well fed.
O Flaij, explain to those who visit our home
How I used to live.
I know your thoughts are swirled as in a whirlwind,
When you hear the voice of my anguished soul.
Send sweet peace and greetings to Bu’mair;
Kiss him on his forehead, for he is my father.
Fate has divided us, like the parting of a parent from a newborn.
O Father, this is a prison of injustice.
Its iniquity makes the mountains weep.
I have committed no crime and am guilty of no offense.
Curved claws have I,
But I have been sold like a fattened sheep.
I have no fellows but the Truth.
They told me to confess, but I am guiltless;
My deeds are all honorable and need no apology.
They tempted me to turn away from the lofty summit of integrity,
To exchange this cage for a pleasant life.
By God, if they were to bind my body in chains,
If all Arabs were to sell their faith, I would not sell mine.
I have composed these lines
For the day when your children have grown old.
O God—who governs creation with providence,
Who is one, singular and self-subsisting,
Who brings comfort and happy tidings,
Whom we worship—
Grant serenity to a heart that beats with oppression,
And release this prisoner from the tight bonds of confinement.

This guy was told by his Homeowners Association that he couldn’t fly the American flag in his front yard.

Honestly, I really hate that shit.
I see that homosexuals are being treated like shit and like they are less than human. People sit there and say homosexuality is wrong in front of gay people like they can’t and shouldn’t do anything about it. They get treated like they didn’t come from vaginas like every other human in the world and it’s fucked up.
However, comparing discrimination due to skin color and discrimination due to sexual preference is absolutely retarded. This country just stopped being blatantly racist less than 50 years ago. There is a long, bloody ass history of racism in America and how they treated blacks is just the beginning. You can’t compare anything to that.
When gay people are being told they have to use seperate water fountains with dick-shaped spouts, I might understand this “gay is the new black” shit.
When gay people are swinging from trees by their necks while families have picnics around them and take pictures, I’ll take this “gay is the new black” shit seriously.
The worst part is that these aren’t even gay people promoting that shit; its the white folks that feel like they have to support everything to make up for not being discriminated against.
Niggas should go to Africa and Jamaica and tell everyone there that they’re homosexual. If you make it back alive, then you might have an instance where you can compare racial discrimination to gay discrimination.
EDIT: How Europeans treated True Americans was the beginning. The blacks were damn near at the end.

“Humor is a common defense mechanism. Some funny people like to make themselves and others laugh because it keeps them from crying. It distracts people from the real issues and pokes fun at things to minimize the impact. Albeit temporarily.”
I don’t cry
