c'mon now, i am 1 of tha most open minded people.. no need 2 assume i'm racist cuz i am far from that as iz my father, and i don't even see why he was brought into this.. tha point i'm making iz that when all races were presented, why'd there hafta be a VERSUS inbetween each categorization, as if we all have to be seperate and against each other

although i do take ur 'we don't always know names' into consideration and that iz definitely true.

and to stay on topic and answer the question at hand, i refer to people as i think they are. if i see a buncha white dudez, they're a buncha white dudez and it if it happenz 2 be a bunch of blacc dudez, then that'z wut they are, a buncha blacc dudez! just as i'd call a buncha hispanics/latinos a buncha hispanics and/or latinos, along with a buncha asians. i try 2 shy away from categorizing them as mexicans and chinese, because a lot of tha time - those people are not that race. i ended up typing this up b4 i saw what Bro$eff said, but he basically hit it on tha head 4 me..

and dirty shoez i didn't mean to jump in like that, i just have certain irks when it comes to some forms of racism or when it comes to assuming one group has it harder than tha other cuz there are some people from each race have it harder than someone from another race. so i'll end it at this - my intent was not to offend.

I was talking to this guy today, about race relations and he brought up rappers and their 'grillz'. He was like "I don't get it, it makes them all look like idiots".

I replied with, "Maybe they like it".

He immediately said "Now, who's being racist... reffering to black people as 'they'".

I looked at him awkwardly and said "I was reffering to rappers as 'they', you douche bag".

Gotta love rednecks... especially when you're a member of the most discriminated demographic in America today... morbidly obese.

Nobody in their right mind would. But, look, a DIRECTLY RELEVANT example, from THIS VERY FORUM:

http://www.siccness.net/vb/showthread.php?t=130183

"A total of $2 billion is to be cut from high school education, including vocational education, Upward Bound, Talent Search and other programs to help poor and minority students prepare for college."


What is your opinion on this? Was that Racist? Was it out of line? Would you have rather this article-writer specifically said "to help students like John Johnson" instead?

Speak up, "that's why we have NAMES" people.

That's why you ask genius. Most people will tell you their name unless you're a fuck face when you ask them.

i don't feel like i need 2 have a word 2 call non-white people, that's why we have NAMES

all i see from u is all these damn race posts, GET OVER IT
for me its like, i call um what color they are then they name, cause unfortunatly, there are billions of people, and not billions of people, example i have like 6 people i know named willy, and the only characteristic that sets one apart, is that hes black, so if people ask me which willy, i say the black one, if im talkin bout him, another is gothic, another is "the older guy at my work" ect.......... thats the only time i label people like that, or if people ask me to describe who im talkin bout

You're a fucking stupid ass.

I posted up an ARTICLE that said MINORITIES, to refer to NON-WHITE PEOPLE. There was NOTIHNG COLLOQUIAL ABOUT IT.


GIVE your opinion of this person saying MINORITIES as opposed to other possible words/phrases (or nothing at all), or shut the fuck up and admit ignorance.
