Outlaw2747 Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 I don't care if you call me a negro (which is not offensive) or an African American. I am NOT black. I so happen to be BROWN. Now my hair, yea, that's black for sure my brotha.

snafu Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 I know more people who think their recent ancestry makes them better, rather that any long past ancestry. In Atlanta, for the most part, no one gives a shit who you are, or where you came from, as long as you stay out of their way. Down here, if you aren't related to someone that founded the town, you are and outsider. The first question you get asked is, "Who are you related to?" I find it extremely pathetic. Those snooty people here that think they are big fish in these little towns would be nothing in a city like Atlanta. I guess that is why they stay down here. To some it’s a sense of pride not who’s better. The natives up here have great pride in their ancestors and I don’t believe they think their better than anyone. PS: I’m listing to Helen Reddy "I am women". Is she proud or does she thinks she’s better than men? I don't care if you call me a negro (which is not offensive) or an African American. I am NOT black. I so happen to be BROWN. Now my hair, yea, that's black for sure my brotha. Wow I always say "black person" I thought the was the least offensive term. I'm not white either. I'm sort of pink. I got burned fishing this weekend. Quote "You can't stop insane people from doing insane things by passing insane laws. That's just insane!" Penn & Teller NEVER FORGOTTEN

Now my hair, yea, that's black for sure my brotha. What really gets to me are the people that use the terms 'White' and 'African American' together. Either say White and Black, or say European American and African American. The idea that one group should be pandered to so as not to offend, but the other group doesn't care is ridiculous. White people are no closer to being the actual color white, than black people are to being the actual color black. Of-course, then you must take into consideration the Black and White people who come here from Africa. They are African Americans, regardless of the color of their skin. I'm not a European American, either. I'm so far removed from Europe through generations of Americanization, that there is no way I could even attempt to claim the title European American. I hate politically correct bullshit. Quote Smart men learn from their own mistakes; Wise men learn from others. I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
phreakwars Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 BLACK OR WHITE ?? If only it could be that simple.. what about the ones in between.. they should be called OTHER ?? I can understand getting rid of the PC bullshit by saying a person is either black or white, but then your almost forced to get back to PC to label the others... Oriental... hispanic... But then, I am fairly white by genetic design... yet I am hispanic.. where does the color come in to play to make me hispanic ?? I know an individual who has an oriental mom, yet does not have slanted eyes... is this person oriental ?? Works for "BLACK AND WHITE " TOO.. Ever come across a white person with a black parent ?? Or Vice Versa ?? Kind of wierd really... Your major labels are: Black< color White< color Indian < race Mexican < race Oriental < race Italian < race and ETC... < race YET... Black, can be MANY races... WHITE can be many races.. Black can be defined as skin color, yet when defining a color by race... black doesn't really have a race... BLACK has a culture that defines it. I.E. African / African American / Nigger So one needs to ask themselves... when you see a BLACK person... are you defining them by a color, a race, or a culture ?? . .

TerroristHater Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 Oh shut the fuck up you nazi limey asshole. There is NOBODY as racist as the english and that is a proven fact. Look at the way England behaved during the course of history and you will see that the english did everything in their power to kill off the Scottish and the Irish BECAUSE THEY WERE DIFFERENT.

TommyGun1928 Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 Did we already forget what the thread was about? Aren't you forum goons going to defend the good name of the best fucking forum there has ever been? No? Shit. The best thing to do when you absolutely have to label somebody as the member of a race for any reason is to use the neutral words right out of the dictionary. North America is composed primarily of these five major races: Caucasian (White) Negro (Black) Hispanic (Tan) South Asian (Brown/Russel Peters) East Asian/Oriental (omfg AzN ppl/R u Chinese? lol) Quote

Cogito Ergo Sum Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 Why do people have to use these words at all, why must we always notice colour? Because people have, um...eyes? Quote . I put no stock in religion. By the word "religion" I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much "religion" in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness.

Different genepools have different talents, and so do different races, no matter how much it sounds like sterotyping. Quote
