Ummm - do you know your racist? I thought you were just kidding about your "bad things happening to good people" comment in the KKK post below, but I guess there was a little more to it than that.

So I assume by "they" you mean blacks, and that obiously all of them are parasites on society looking for handouts???

Anyway, back the the original sillyness of master/slave terminology debate, my wife (who is black) has a Masters Degree and has never lost any sleep over the name of it.






Umm. This is a topic that genearates stong feelings. Strong enough that I refuse to comment on it. I will say that you are stretching it to call someone racist on just these grounds. You do realize that if he were to loose his job because his employer read the post where you called him racist on a public forum AND you were unable to provide any additional proof of it other than two posts, then he could have you for slander?
Politics will kill any conversation; just let it die.






Once again you're the voice of reason - I suppose it would have been better to say "Do you know your posts make you look racist?" or "Do you know I think you're a racist." I apologize

Although with the definition of racist:

"The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. Discrimination or prejudice based on race. "

So for any defamation to have occured he would have to prove he had no racially based prejudices, and with his comments of "If we eliminate it from the history books, they wouldn't have any claim to be able to try to leech money (read: parasite) off of people who's grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather's grandfather had slaves. " and by his kiddingly refering to the injury of a KKK member as bad things happening to good people it would very likely be enough to show in court that he does hold racial prejudices.


Still - I was wrong and I apologize to Lance and 18PSI...




Okay - so I should drop it, but I knew I remembered a previous post by 18PSI that made me react the way I did this time:

prev post

Dang near impossible to argue that every person in Cuba and Mexico is an illegal immigrant waiting to happen - or was that a "common joke" too

anyway - i'm done and I apologize agaain
