Off_White Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 Greg, ya'll are free to think whatever you want. Thinking is great, I encourage you to do more of it. But you're not necessarily free to say it here. Quote

mattp Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 Greg - As much as some of the right thinking people around here may be surprised to hear this, I consider myself irreverant and I do not like politically correct dogmatists. Thus, I will sometimes use certain offensive words which refer to mean spirited persons of the female gender, or refer to racial stereo-types or make jokes that are in "bad taste" of whatever - in private conversations where I believe my remarks are not going to be misunderstood as anything more than irreverent banter. However, there is a difference between that and posting the same comments on a public bulletin board. I think it has been a long time since, in Seattle at least, public expressions of racial hatred have been generally considered acceptable. To borrow a line from some of those who post from the right, if you don't like it you can find another bulletin board (referring to those who keep saying that if you don't like America, you should move to Iran or whatever). I enjoyed Sisu's racist joke, but that does not mean I think it belongs here. Quote
Necronomicon Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 I feel that it was inappropriate to delete Trask's list of offensive terminology. Now, I have no racism barometer with which to gauge my actions. Quote

This site is probably run by some (insert racial epithet of choice here) motherfucker...just like Hollywood.

RobBob Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 minx, I think that the more "thoughtful" of us realized that there is little upside to sticking our necks out on this subject, and a whoooole lotta downside. One man's belly-laugh is another's indignation. Quote
Greg_W Posted August 6, 2003 Posted August 6, 2003 minx said: some of you couldn't reach an independent decision/thought, if you were the last person on earth. I disagree, actually; by it's very nature, any decision made (or not made) would be independent if one was the last person on earth. Even the decision to not make a decision right away is an independent decision if you are all alone in the world. It's so obvious, how could you have missed it? Quote
