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.

If you're saying that the image of Lin in the OP is an example of PC racism -- meaning, it shouldn't be seen as truly racist and people who think it is should lighten up -- I would agree with that.

No...... no.gif

 

Racism is a very touchy topic and this topic starts off with the OP's question.....

 

Is this racist?

 

Some will state "Yes" and some will state "No."

 

BR is Asian and so is my wife.

 

They both (being Asians) don't see it as being racist.

 

BR finds it funny and my wife finds is to be very childish in nature.

 

But with this said, we need to talk about this existing problem which slithers into every facet of our society, including Sports.

 

But in my opinion, we constantly stick our heads in the sand.....

 

Racism blows pineapple chuncks (sorry Hawai'ians) but it will always be in this world as long as there are human beings.

 

Just my .02 cents! Nothing more and nothing less......

thats some sick shit refers to the photo and anyone who enjoys a photo like that.

 

It is a nauseating photo and it was first published in "Life" magazine.

 

And Pumpy doesn't enjoy that photo in any way, shape or form!

 

If you think Pumpy enjoys the photo, then you don't know Pumpy!!!
