I'm Asian and I think that poster is awesome!

That's OK, I'll be offended for you.

Only offense is that Lin is Taiwanese and a fortune cookie is Chinese. His family is originally from China anyways other than that - brilliant!

Does this mean I can go back to being offended for the Native Americans about the UND Fighting Sioux logo?

Sort of, or asking why some of the Cleveland Indians aren't wearing turbans...

Your point seems to be that killing people is racism, but mocking their race or ethnicity isn't.

Which is, frankly, ridiculous.

Missed again!

Well then why don't you try explaining it then. Knock off the cryptic bullshit.

Demanding, little bugger! wacko.gif

 

Xanadu asked the question......

 

"Is this racist?"

 

My reply, "No but this sure is racist!" With picture inserted minus the word "true"

 

Tick asked the question.....

 

"Is this necessary to post in this thread?"

 

My reply, "Yep."

 

But I followed up with Bullshit PC Racism. (Key Word = PC)

 

And stated the picture is True Racism.

 

I truly comprehend racism at its core is disgusting! 062802puke_prv.gif

 

You said "Your point seems to be that killing people is racism, but mocking their race or ethnicity isn't.

 

You missed my point!

 

Mocking and killing is in the realm of racism.

 

I would be idiotic to think the differ.......Yes? No?

 

My point is about Bullshit PC Racism!

 

I only regret posting this picture in a "Sports" thread instead of another thread!

 

And it was addressed in a PM to a Mod.......

The point is perhaps made even better with subtler forms of racism than a lynching....

And Pumpy concurs, Lerxty my boy!

 

But Pumpy is definitely "Cut from a different cloth!"

 

Pumpy keeps forgetting most individuals can not stomach certain things.....

i feel sorry for you.

Why?

to begin with, the fact that you either searched for that photo to put in this thread or you had it already in your computer speaks volumes about you. then you took the time to upload it? thats some sick shit dude.

 

where did you get that photo? please inform us.

 

secondly, your argument about context is weak. very weak. and off topic.

 

i don't come to a forum about sports to see a graphic photo and i think you are setting a dangerous precedent here at trf if that photo remains here.

 

i also find it f***ing funny that i when i spell f**k i am f***ing censored yet that f***ing photo is still f***ing here....

 

i still feel sorry for you pumpy.

 

ps-you are not nearly as clever and cute as you hope to be.

It is called "Google."

And this was already discussed (see above)!

Never claimed to be clever and definitely never claimed to be cute!

 

Now kindly go stick your head in a giant tub of goo and go pound some sand!

I agree with Pumpy's point about "PC racism" vs. real racism, and I'm thinking a lot of people here would agree with that point. But as lerxt suggested, Pumpy could have made his point without posting such an extremely graphic photo.

 

Pumpy, being "cut from a different cloth" is fine (and welcomed), but some things are just not appropriate, or necessary, on a board like this. You can still be "Pumpy" without crossing the line into indecency.

 

If you didn't know where we drew the line, you do now. wink.gif

Pumpy thought PMs were supposed to be private, Mr. 1-0-0-1-0-0-1?

PMs are indeed private. My post here is in response to other posts in this thread.

Didn't expect this thread to wind up like this, even though the topic of racism is inherently touchy. Perhaps a thread closure is in order?

Or maybe move it to SOCN, I don't know. I don't go in there, so I don't know if it's appropriate there, either laugh.gif

 

I'm talking to Pumpy via PM about the "PC racism" thing, which I think is just a misunderstanding of terminology on my part. We established no "beef" with each other biggrin.gif If the thread closes, no biggie to me.
