juanesky 0 #52 May 1, 2004 Lady, whatever makes you happy, you should ask from those who are close to you. Not from a stranger on the net. You might think it is offensive to you, cool, I find offensive people that curse, talk about their genitalia, yeast infections, sleeping with 100 different people in 10 days, etc, or simple Bush bashers as well as US haters, nevertheless they are as well permitted to post, without a comment from moderators. If you have a problem with me directly, you can always PM me or ask Sanguiro for permission to become a greenie so you can ban my spicky brown ass from this forum. If you have never accepted my explanation of the term in question, is not my problem, I think its yours.

Thanks for sharing your true colors. Are you really going to go after Wendy for writing "nigger", "chink", "spic"? There's no context there that suggests hate or even stereotyping, there's no reason to be offended. Only a true jackass could find offense in Wendy's words. You're not a jackass, are you? - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobsled92 0 #55 May 1, 2004 are you saying she didn't use words that are offensive? she did. in your own words fitting: only a jack-ass can't spot self contradiction. Using that language is offensive in itself. the majority (90%) of my family are black and Mexican, including my wife and son. I see it how it is, not "pick and choose"._______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #56 May 2, 2004 It's all about context. You chose to take offense where none was intended. By doing so, you've made yourself look like an ass. Here's a quote I posted in Talkback (RIP) several months ago, I think it sums things up my thoughts about your response to Wendy rather nicely. Quote Josh from Idaho: "If you take offense where none was intended, you're a fool. If you take offense where it was intended, you're letting the offender get his way. Or, in other words, the people who are always getting offended want to be 'treated with dignity', yet they insist on being INdignant about everything. Something seems wrong here." Yep, and it's up to us else to let the terminally afflicted know they need to grow the hell up. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

bobsled92 0 #57 May 2, 2004 You know, right now I'm more concerned with Paul and his family's loss than this pitiful display of personal attacks on me JAMES. If you wish to continue this discussion... Let me know and I will see you at the DZ. -Good day._______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #58 May 2, 2004 Ok guys. Let's cool this one out. When we talk about issues, let's talk about the -issues- and not attack each other in hurtful ways -- intentional or not. I'm going to lock this thread. Let's not start up another one that uses racial slurs in hurtful ways.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
