Tailgater,

You are prejudiced against sloppy yards. Shame on you!!!!

And your Patriots stink!!!!!LOL

Tailgater you may want to read this...http://www.pittstate.edu/wac/logic.html

The only issue i have with this whole thread involves Beatdragon's first line. " I have a friend". Sorry, but any person that's so obviously racist would never be considered a "friend".

I've had "friends" that were closet racists which is hillarious considering I'm Puerto Rican. Once their true colors were revealed they stopped being my "friends".

BTW, I agree with ruggysgirl and erkwgz. I think, even people who have been discriminated against, harbor some issues when it comes to race. JMHO!!!!

later, jd

Buckwheat,

Which category in particular do you want me to digest?

It's some good information, but be more specific.

I made a generalization. Tell me what I said that wasn't true.

Andy,

The smell of my favorite team is not important! They kick ass.

Actually, Tailgater I was being kind of an ass. My point was that your argument didn’t use the best logical choice of words. While there are truly some who would see anyone who doesn’t move next to a black family for any reason as being bigoted. In my opinion, your argument doesn’t logically come to this conclusion.

Argument?

I made a theoretical situation, and gave my opinion as to what would be concluded by some on the left.

My point wasn't whether or not there is racism. There is.

My point was simply that the race card gets played too often and for the wrong reasons. As numerous posters have stated (perhaps more clearly than I), if ANYTHING negative happens towards a person of color, it is perceived as being race related.

Heck, even when good things happen the race card is played. Remember a couple years ago when Hally Berry and Denzel Washington won acadamy awards.

My thoughts were "I like Denzel, and I love Hally"

The headlines were "Blacks win first Oscar" or something like that.

Yet, I'm the biggoted white guy if I think negative thoughts when I see a group of young kids, trash talking, pants below the knees, listening to hip hop gangsta rap.

Oops. Almost forgot. I'm only evil if my negative thoughts are regarding those same kids AND they happen to be black.

Truth is, I think the same negative thoughts when they're white. But then I'm simply out of touch with todays youth.

I am a partner in my company.

If I fire a white employee based on poor performance, it ends there. If I fire a black employee, there's a risk that I can be accused of racism even if the firing is based on poor performance.

These are merely one man's opinions, based on known facts. If I stated something that isn't correct, whether you agree or not with my conclusion, please correct me.

As for being an ass, I didn't perceive it that way at all. Heck, my first name is Ass.

You can call me Mr. Hole.
