Man... Rosen has def said some things I disagree with, but in this case I'm gonna have to stand up and say that he's done noting wrong in this particular instance. he made an obviously satirical type post and anyone who's stuck on the offensive words that were in that post without being able to see the larger intent... has no place in an adult conversation.

I agree, but the pack thinks it's circling for the kill. I suspect they have tried to take on the wrong prey this time.

Well, when you put it that way, we will never catch up.

Each clan competes to see how much money they can make off of Clan Donald`s proclivities .....on second thought those bastards just steal, they don`t pay for anything

That's probably true, but I doubt we're both talking about the same pack.

Are you kidding me? I did not make a racist statement. I also did not make joke, dumbass. I made an anti-racist statement. You should stop talking because you're too dumb to possess the power of speech. You're an ape.

You made an "anti-racist" statement? What a load of bullshit. Take a look at your statement and it's timing and who you quoted in your response. Looks an awful lot like some asshole trying to put words into someone else's mouth. I think I'll call you NAACP from now on.

Bart made an extremely valid point about how militant islamists hate the West, partially because of our rather liberal ways and your response was to go straight for the bigoted slurs, which had NOTHING to do with what Bart was saying.
And to think you actually called someone else too dumb to posses the power of speech.

Liberal racists are funny. Quick to accuse others of racism while denying they are racist themselves. Always pretending their racism is for the benefit of minority peoples or that their use of racial slurs was only to prove a point.
At least with a conservative racist you know pretty much where they stand.

I dopn`t think it was his intention to be racist anymore than it was All in the Family`s intent to be racist. It was sarcasm....ridiculing outdated views he thought some held. Bart is also correct that our tolerance for intolerance is a weakness...restraint is seen as a weakness to be exploited and engagement merely as a delaying tactic to feel out soft targets. Most Muslims I know are like most Christians I know.....nominal lip service paid once a week, on high holidays and during weddings and funerals. The rest of the time they are extremely secular and accepting, often violating tenets of their faith without a second thought

You are probably right, and I saw the sarcasm in Rosens' post. However, and as Bill Cosby pointed out, the word does not change meaning because it is used as humour. Some words will always be racially charged, no matter how they are used.

It will always be a hateful word, and nothing we do will change that.

[ShepherdsDog]

it`s a term fitting for gangbangers, most supporters of Mugabe and a few other select groups and individuals, just as sister fucking cracker is suitable for white trash...I`ve never used either term except to express contempt or hatred for the target it`s directed at. It`s not a word meant to be used lightly nor casually
