Liberal hypocrisy

[revelarts]

Apologize for WHAT? Saying what all your brother's say?
If you don't like it, then tell it all your brothers to quit saying it.
And just for the record, I don't believe you're black anyway.

I don't listen to the music.
And none of them used the word toward me personally HPD,
no one has in Years.
you did.
I'm talking to YOU.

THAT is fucking enough. I don't give a damn about any politics at this point. Nobody's dumb here and you aren't using the word in general. You aren't using it PERIOD as it pertains personally to a black member. I won't tolerate that shit. You'll be explaining it Jim if I see it again.
@revelarts ... you know racism is not board policy. I will apologize on behalf of the board. It's unsat.

HPD.
I've put up with a lot of sh-t on this board.
but this is to much.
I'm the only black guy on this board and I've told you all that I don't like the use of the word.
so the only reason to use it is to attack and offend me. period.
that post was way out of bounds.
I'd appreciate an apology here.

I'm guessing that if you aren't able to speak for 'all blacks' the least you could do is make all the rappers and writers stop using the words that most blacks find offensive. I mean, you ALL know each other, right?

I may have misunderstood Jim earlier, I'm pretty sure he said he doesn't like the word, doesn't use it much, but wouldn't ban it. Shouldn't be necessary, but I'm betting there's going to be many laws, not too mention rules that will be necessary soon, as civil discourse turns violent more often.

Sorry, Rev, but beating your head against the wall isn't going to work here. White Supremacists are never going to learn how to be civil and mannerly. They are still fighting the Civil War and begetting reasons why minorities are second class citizens.
It is especially disturbing to see a veteran (well, sort of) putting down the rights of others. We owe a great deal of gratitude to those who fought for the freedoms that everyone enjoys today. But there are some whose brains have slipped into a jar, to the point where they have become a disgrace to their uniform. You see them on Stormfront and other hate sites, proclaiming how white males deserve credit for all things American.
A true Christian person would express love and respect for all. The presence of hate mongers proves that Satan continues to possess weak souls and use them to spread his ideals. It's a sad blasphemy of God's word, but part of the struggle that each person must fight.
Rev, I urge you to continue to fight the good fight. Do not give in to evil, hatred and false witness. There will always be those who continue to live in 1963, donning white sheets and looking for crosses to burn. Better to turn your back than to look Satan in the eye.

That is my understanding as well. I assume we can revisit it.

If you read my posts in this thread, that is exactly what I’ve been saying over and over. Without calling anyone here names.

I know you haven't. And that's good. But people were hurt by what Samantha said. When someone calls you a hypocrite for being hurt or upset, that's personal in my opinion. It can make things 10x worse.

Don't worry, I've had about enough... I'm out... I can't stand double standards, those who support them, hypocrisy and capitulation.

A thread wouldn't be complete without gabby swiping at board veterans, now would it?

I'm not going for a word ban.

I don't think use of the word in discussion is the same as using the word in a personal manner to purposefully insult and inflame a a specific member of the board. I've used it, in general, when speaking of a stereotype. I've NEVER used it to insult anyone personally. If Jim decides otherwise, fine. I think it's crossing a line.

[aboutime]

Don't know whether to thank gabby, or slime her at this point. IMAGINE gabby calling other people WHITE SUPREMACISTS to cover up her own...liberal, hidden identity of hypocrisy????

Gabby. You no longer deserve to be welcome here. You are being as divisive as Obama, and the entire Democrat, Liars whom you follow so closely.
You and rev should get together since both of you are as racist as anyone could ever expect from you. Bet you agree with rev about none of us being permitted to talk about racism, or race too!

Your endless hypocrisy bleeds stupidity, ignorance, and intolerance for honest conversations.

What double standard? I don't see one. Don't see any hypocrisy nor capitulation either.

That some who demand respect for themselves show little or none to others? THAT hypocrisy?

Just shut up, Gabby. Don't you get enough trouble without trying to? Your entire comment is pointless and just bullshit.

There is a difference between veterans you respect and veterans you tolerate. I don't respect bigots. If you are a White Supremacists, you have turned your back on the very ideals that most veterans fought (and died) for.
If the jack boot fits, wear it.
