Well, there was that one fantasy that I actually am the one looking stupid here, when it is in fact you. Trust me, I doubt you'd want to share anything with me anyway. =)

This topic has been de-railed enough. Get back on-topic, or I'll make you get back on-topic.

Please validate this statement.

By asking that, and still trying to remain off-topic. This is about racism, not about your stupidity. Let's move on, shall we?

Yes, well... at least Saddiction makes one HOT hermaphrodite.

Saddi, you can be one hot hermaphrodite around me all you want. At least she's still human.

Off-topic? Ok lets get back on topic shall we? You included discrimination and prejudice in your defination of racism. Let me further define these terms for you:

Discrimination:
Behavior that shows prejudice. Failure to treat people equally because of a bias based on characteristic such as race, religion, sex, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, and disability.

Prejudice:
Prejudice is a negative or hostile attitude toward a person or group formed without just or sufficient knowledge and based on negative stereotypes. Prejudice is the result of "prejudgment" and can lead to discrimination.

And incase you don't know the definition of prejudgement...

Prejudgement:
a judgment reached before the evidence is available

So far you have called me a waste of life, moron, shit eater, and hermaphrodite - which you also claimed to be fact. Thing is, you don't know anything about me, yet you pass judgement. Not only do you pass judgement but you do it in a fasion that is comparable to children who have not reached intellectual maturity.

Bloopie, are you proud of your behavior on this website? I just don't understand you. A website is like a radio transmitter that goes to the whole world. You are making a fool out of yourself in front of the whole world.

Thanks Kontan, for making light of the situation

To answer your question, Bloopie, I believe that the fourth and fifth statements are the only racist statement. The others describe each person's actions or motives as an effect of their own opinions or feelings, while the last two use the peoples' ethnicity as justification.

As for the rest of you, regarding this flame war - you create your own problems. Think on that for a while.

I hope you do not include me in that.

I wasn't really, no.

I am sure more 'enlightened' people will be sure to jump in and give us their opinions on this. The real question is...how would you answer the poll I've given?

You don't have an option for "All of the above". I cannot respond to your poll.

[KontanKarite]

I do my best.

He is pondering the thought of joining a mob which is not racist. Also this sounds more like a issue of heritage than it does race.

Well not enough information is provided here. If he mistrusts white people for the very fact they are white people that is racist but if he was traumatized (e.g. being molested, abused, etc. by a white person) then I would say that is a survival mechanism. Jack might very well have white friends but is just mistrustful. True racism implies a superiority over another race which is not expressed.

This sounds more like a matter of peer pressure than it does race. Just based on this statement alone I would say she has a inferiority complex. How is Tiffany pressured by her “culture”. The word “Culture” implies many factors including country of origin (Not race), family values, media, etc.

AH. Now you are cooking with gas. Since the word “knows” is in the statement you “could” argue the fact that it could be a racist statement, actually based on that statement I would say he is a narcissist.

Since you want to get bogged down in semantics I would say the “statement” is racist.

Are you kidding me?! If it's meant to be a joke, I'm sorry I don't get it. I find that statement quite offending.

1) I can say whatever I want about black people. Whoever doesn't like it should ignore it.
2) You're from the Bahamas. Are you black? I'm part Bahamian. I'm black. I repeat: I can say whatever I want about black people.
3) Hmm, sarcasm. Have you ever heard of it before?

If you didn't like my joke, you will get over it. I promise.

I once saw this show where this black guy was in the KKK because he was a white supremacist...

I dunno, I kinda found it weird.

How did that work? I though Mickey Mouse was the ultimate lover of gays, blacks, jews and catholics. :-D

I hate the KKK, a lot.

God damn, I hate the stupid filter for the Ku Klux Clan.

[mrs.wes straker]

I am so slow. I thought Kontan was really talking about the Disney MMC. It's sad, how stupid I am. A black white supremacist? HILARIOUS!!! Reminds me of the Chappelle Show. HILARIOUS!!! I have a twisted little sense of humor, I'm sure you might have noticed by now.
