sobo Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Let's get this back on track: what's the gear selection like at the Naches hardware store, CBS? Hey Dan, they sell crack-n-ups there, but only if you're a meth cook! hmmmm, is that a racist remark? Quote
AlpineK Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Sobo, are you suggesting that all people from Naches are meth (or should I say methaphedrine) addicts. Quote
mattp Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Is that some kind of shorthand for methamphetamine? Quote
rock-ice Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 I'm a cracker/wasp/ridge-runnin' grit, so And I married an Irish/German/Native American, so that makes our son a....? Too much work to figure it all out. I just tell people I'm 100% mutt... Quote

Kurt, That would be considered sterotyping, and not normally considered racist by common standards. Now profiling, however, could be considered racist, but only peeps buying crack-n-ups in Naches would be profiled as meth cooks. Quote

billcoe Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 Here's the deal..everyone made their point. I think everyone agrees - even Toast - that Jap as used here was merely shorthand for Japanese and that their was no slur intended. Case closed on the RC forum. feel free to discuss this subject elsewhere. Must agree with Toast. The point is not that everybody agrees that no slur was intended (even if that were true). The point is that the word "jap" in its conventional use is considered by many Japanese Americans (and some white folk too) to be offensive. That should be enough. Shame on you for using the word (your convenience, Toast's expense). Shame on you for having to be corrected by somebody who is offended. Shame on you for excusing your own clumsy writing. Well spoken Pope, and I think we all learned to just shut the f up and sit right back down. Quote

Double_E Posted June 3, 2005 Posted June 3, 2005 I used to work at this one food co-op. About 1/3 of the staff were sorta big, middle-aged lesbians. I once overheard this conversation two of them were having about the milk delivery guy. Being a food co-op, some of the milk they sold was un-homogenized. Anyway, so one of them was kinda snippy about how the milk guy was referring to the homogenized milk as "homo" milk... she thought he was making fun of them or something. I hate to say it, but i had to try reeeaaally hard not to at the time. Amazing how some people in this world seem to be just looking for oppression and discrimination to complain about. Not saying that's true of anyone particular post, or poster, on this here thread. But, um.... yeah. Quote
