WR - View Single Post - Banned for making racial joke?

What double standard? As far as I know, the stars and bars flies proudly over many places in the south. People have KKK rallies all the time. Minutemen show their proud american roots in bumper stickers everywhere. You are racist when you try to put other people down. If all the KKK was about was helping people advance the white race, I'd be proud of their movement. It's preaching hatred and unecessary stereotypes that I frown upon.

If you guys seriously think that people are passed that whole "oops, we're sorry we raped your women and children, beat your men, and hung them for trying to be human, then you guys aren't reading enough. It might be dead in your household, and I applaud you for that, but the fact that this guy got banned for a joke that all of us probably giggled at shows that its not.

Everyone knows that porch monkey scene in Clerks 2. I think this is what comedians are trying to do. They are taking the word back, and taking the power away from it and turning it into something possitive. I, on many ocasions, call my black friends "mah niggas" and they are okay with it. It's changing....but slowly and to say that this stuff is behind us is naive.

That whole brown pride tats...it's really only the lower class cholo and hoods that do that. I wouldn't get one. Doesn't mean I'm not proud. Same with middle and upper class white people...they wouldn't wear a stars and bars sweatshirt to the gym.
