Racism on the forum... is it necessary...
I hate being nitty...
but : Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 I could go on with other examples, that I have seen just this week... And no doubt people could even say I'm being a hypocrite given that I posted the photoshop thread in LOL...(but having viewed a lot of them before I posted the link - I didn't see anything too outrageous or further from 3 KFC related pics) but this kinda of stuff is just a bane to read again and again..especially when Jewish/Chinese etc etc gags are extremely taboo... Vava Let me guess : *First *Shotgun (Edit...Too slow) *We get it you're black... |

Vava, that first post was a Ice Cube quote and very appropriate for that thread. The others seem worthy of a temp ban, just hit report moderator on the individual uses of whatever it is that bugs you.

Re: Racism on the forum... is it necessary...
Ok, turns out..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/[censored] ..that '[censored]' simply means black. It comes from the latin 'nigrum' which is the accusative form of 'niger'. ac·cu·sa·tive –adjective 1. Grammar. a. (in certain inflected languages, as Latin, Greek, or Russian) noting a case whose distinctive function is to indicate the direct object of a verb or the object of certain prepositions. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/accusative So people who try to use it in a purposefully derogative manner are quite dumb. It is merely stating a fact. If you take offense when people do something like that then I think you're not seeing how dumb those people are. edit: ugh; the word gets censored.. |
