Really, really needs to stop.

WG has a really diverse community, and even I'm getting sick of the constant spurting of derogatory words.

If anyone does it staff, member whatever. Joking or not, expect a MINIMUM 20% warn.

Consider this your official warning.

Just one thing I've always wondered.

Why is it a stereotype that african-americans like fried chicken? I mean wtf, have you ever met anybody that DOESN'T like fried chicken.

Chimpy for racist.

Its a matter of context and rightly or wrongly someone may be offended. Once long ago friends and I were out on a cold winter day in Chicago and I said it sure is nippy today. The Nak, who is Japanese took offense. None was intended but in the future I said cold... no more problems. If your Jewish, you just might take offense to some of the comments made at the last event. I found some of them offensive.

I have learned from the diverse culture and the offense that people take in my area when it comes to racist comments, so I take that experience and put it into the online world, thus making me say almost no racist comments except to close friends in private.

Not a problem for me. :>

theres no such thing as a black Jew.

And we all know Joe is black. So hes lieing about being Jewish.

p.s- fyi Nagger(the explicit version) doesn't refer to just black people. There are plenty of white naggers as well.

p.s.s- Blacks arent even from africa anymore, fucking fags need to come up with a new name. Like...seriously, when was the last time you met a black guy who lived in africa...yea..fucking never.

Well, actually...now that you ask. When I lived in Africa for 9th-11th grade...I met a lot of black people. Who, coincidentally...were from Africa.

But yeah, good to see this happen Kyle.

I'm not fan of random racist comments either. I mean, I get how it can sometimes be an inside joke between friends, and that's no problem, but the minute someone takes offense, regardless of the "stupidity" of their reaction the comments must stop.

I've got a Jewish friend here in college and we always make jokes about him being Jewish, but it's alright between us because they make fun of me being Asian. But before I ever make a joke about him being Jewish, if there is ANYONE else around that we don't normally hang out with, I ask to make sure they won't be offended before I crack my joke.

Just keep in mind not everyone is as tolerant as you might be.

Nigger can refer to anyone, but it stems from racism against blacks in this country. It's by and large a black term.
I take lots of offense when some white people use the term. I'm from a mostly black area and went to a mostly black school before college and most white kids don't understand the term nigger. I come to college and there these white girls screaming it at parties cause they just know it as something in hip hop. They don't know racism.

And I could go on about the term African-American (I don't have a problem with what you're saying and like all my black friends agree), however, there are some number of Africans around, I have several black friends from Africa. One of the guys I live with is from Ghana and two of my other friends are from Morocco and Ethiopia.
There are plenty of people in America from Africa, especially in college.

all im going to say is black people are more offended when white people get offended over someone using the word nigger than when a white person says it. Not to mention most blacks arent even offended by it, they just don't want someone who's not their "brother" to call them that.

Blacks use nigger, why can't whites.....o and. In states like Georgia and Arkansas and the other southern states, calling someone nigger is just how it is. Its not even meant to be racist.

Seriously.

Nigger- http://www.flypaperblog.com/wp-content/upl...elis-nigger.jpg
Black man- http://diogenesii.files.wordpress.com/2009...ng_jr_nywts.jpg

O, and for arguments sake- http://pix.motivatedphotos.com/2009/4/3/63...-Backoff-t2.jpg


See the difference?

They have a fair few in France though, when I went to Paris on a high school trip I was talking to one on a bus and all my friends were like WOAH U SPEAK FRENCH GUD and I was just hash.png

There is so much controversy over racism and political correctness today it's unreal. I think that in any case, we can decide between ourselves wether something is offensive or not in racial context without being the british government and resorting to something like banning nursery rhymes. But all manner of things on that borderline should be avoided anyway.

And fried chicken is totally awesome, to everyone.

I grew up in a farming community which I still live in. There were no black farmers around me and my school had one family that mom was white and dad was black. I think like 3 kids. They were basically the same as everyone else. No special privileges or problems.

I don't understand the racist remarks a lot of the time, cause basically it didn't exist here.

Religious racist remarks really upset me. I think everyone should try to be tolerate of others.

Though I might not like Dieyou cause he would of voted for Bill Clinton, but I think Die just liked Monica. lol (ilu Die)

Totally support Kyle on this. wub.gif

In Alabama, if a white person calls a black person a nigger out of the blue, without being really good friends, then there will be an ass whooping.
