NCclimber 0 #51 June 8, 2007 Quote I avoid bigots... what part of that is laughable....but I guess you feel that in avoiding them.. you see that as bigoted....Oh yeah I forgot.... your world requires me to address you.... why bother...I will go back to ignoring yours I laughed at your assumption - I viewed avoiding bigots as bigoted. I said nothing of the sort. Your's was an absurd claim. Sorry you missed that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #52 June 8, 2007 No not what I said at all. try again.. re read that....post.. Homosexuals are not caused.. most research points to them being that way from birth... Now what other axe do you have to grind. To me a bigot is someone who will be nice to some ethnic minorities face.... and turn around and use those wonderfull terms of endearment about them behind their backs..... you know.... wonderful terms like nigger...kike....spic.....wop.....the list goes on and on. No matter where you are in the world almost EVERY group has its group that they deride in some way. Maybe one day the people will get beyond the need to demonize or deride those who are different from themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VincentVL. 0 #54 June 8, 2007 QuoteMaybe one day the people will get beyond the need to demonize or deride those who are different from themselves. It'll never happen. Ever. My theory is, 90% of the people who don't consider themselves to be racist, when they get mugged/insulted/mistreated/tackled/fenderbended by a black person, the first thing in their head is "Goddamnit f*cking n****r". Much depends on language as well. If you got a pakistani in the neighbourhood and he has the same accent/vocab as yourself, more than likely you won't even see he's a pakistani. If he doesn't speak the language, the difference will become more apparent, thus there's a bigger chance he will be discriminated against. By the power of Pinkskull etcetcetctect. Edited jic: I don't give a toss about people being gay or calling their kids Mohammed. As longs as they're nice it's fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDMA 0 #55 June 8, 2007 QuoteRacism isn't expressing your right to free speech. Which is why there are specific offences. I'm waiting for the day, when in UK law, the courts prove the internet to be a public place for the purposes of the public order act. Then people like MDMA who post 'anonymously' can be dealt with in a manner they deserve. If you wouldn't say it on the street, don't say it on the internet. If you did say it on the street in front of me, you would be dealt with accordingly. really? and would that entail you calling for somebody who actually has the power of arrest?
