I asked Steve to delete it. Don't like it, re-read the forum rules. Aparently he agreeed, because it was flushed almost immediately.

It was laden with racist remarks, which have no place here. Even if they were "quoted" from someone else.

Some of you proved Jets point for him.

Buncha 'holier than thou' douche nozzles...

I see 'Brown Pride' tattoos on hispanics here in SoCal all the time. Someone even SAYS white pride and he's a neo-nazi racist?

You've validated his points.

The dirt does not always need to be swept under the rug.

Hiding it does not cure it.

Shawn,

If the discussion was halfway intelligent, didn't contain overtly racist remarks, I would jump in and discuss the same issues.

That wasn't the case whatsoever. Get a "white pride" tattoo if you want. I am sure those guys with the "brown pride" tattoos are CEO's and political leaders.

I have always been consistant in this forum with my views on any racist remarks and will continue to do so. Being proud just for being white is just as silly as being proud just for being black (but I would be willing to debate this with out using desparaging remarks about race or religion).

I am proud for my integrity, honesty, and dedication, none of which has anything to do with the fact I am white (mostly).

I make no apologies. Did I have to admit to reporting the thread? Nope.

BTW how is the retired life, mine is good so far.

when was the last time the term "white pride" was used in conjunction with the plausible merits of the anglo world. and for equal airtime, those who hide behind "colored enlightenment" and feed segregation are just as vile...............

I thought "white pride" meant an excessive use of bleach in the laundry?

Man, I must be behind the times.

The funny thing is that I have no group association when it comes to "pride".

That's because among any given group, you have 10% of the smart people drowned out by remaining 75% idiots. The other 15% are only there for the brisket / BBQ and/or free beer.

Gringo - we can agree on what we're proud of.

I'm NOT going to get a white pride tattoo. Being white matters to me not at all... until it's held against me for no reason.

We shouldn't tolerate racism from ANYONE. Yet some minorities seem to get away with it.

-------------------------------------------------------

one reason people of color express being "proud" is at one time due to societal oppression they were actually ashamed to be what they were born.

#2, TG,

Link just leads me back to real-time forum (that always happens when I open forum thread links)--but thanks.

Apparent now the thread did get deleted.
