Me? Really? What gives you the impression that I am what's wrong with America? Did I own slaves? Did I whip anyone? Hang anyone from a tree? Put a German Shepherd into a crowd of white people gathered to try to make a difference in their community? Can you say with a straight face that I have done anything even remotely racist in nature? Keep up the name calling though.

First off, those events happened a long azz time ago. Before all of us were born.

Second, he was talking about injecting race into situations where race is not an issue.

Would me calling a black person a n***** be racist in your book?

OE did you call pimp a name, I didn't call him a name, did knucklehead call pimp a name, who called pimp a name? Also like the last sentence pimp "**** you all". I don't believe anyone said anything like that to you. Immature much?

Just one of many directed at me for my opinion. Even though it says please respect others opinions and that if you get angry this ain't the place for you when click on the Politics forum.

Go back and read many other posts. He has said on many occasions that using cracker to explain a white person is not racist. I fail to see the difference. Both are words created in order degrade/ offend a person of another race for whatever reason. Obviously it is racist, but there is no consistency in his view point.

I still don't see how he thinks using cracker towards a white man isn't racist, when using cracker in that reference was meant to be a racist remark.

racism wouldn't exist as much if people didn't care what a fool thinks.

I don't care if a random black dude calls me cracker. If he's doing that to try and degrade me, he's a clown anyway. Am I to say "hey there mr tough guy, i heard you call me a cracker and i just don't appreciate it" (in a high pitched whiny white voice like Eddie Murphy, Chappell and others do)

Give me a break. Who cares.

So because the blacks were treated more poorly than Hispanics and Asians in this country it's ok for there to be belligerence towards them? Do you not agree that it is incredibly counter productive to keep hate around based on things that happened over a hundred years ago?

No, it is not ok. It is not necessarily counter productive, but does not actually help anything.

Also, the Japanese were interned in the 40's and the Chinese were used as slave labor to build the railroads.

Plenty of bad things have happened to plenty of people. All reprehensible. They should not be glossed over nor forgotten.

If that pic in your avatar is anyone in your family, then stick to name calling. I have teenage kids in my family that would mop the floor with you.

1st, they still happened. I have heard my Grandad relate many stories of the racism he endured all throughout his life. His mother had some even worse ones than he did(being that she was a female, I will let you fill in the blanks). Not going to put it in type. 2nd, injecting race where it does not belong IS bad. I totally agree.

Yes, but not as bad as an actual hate crime. But, don't let me stop you. Call 'em all niggers. Who cares. I know what I am. Knock yourself out big guy.

there's a certain irony here that someone calling themselves "pimpvol" is concerned about the perpetuation of racial stereotypes
