[QUOTE=clutch2;23582301]I like to talk about killing babies, rape, racial intolerance, objectifying women, and anything else offensive as much as possible.

you should meet my brother. He flips his shit at me all the time. I rarely insult him without being provoked, and even then Im usually kidding, something he does all the time. He gets mad if he thinks I dont say something to him in the right tone, even if the tone is completely perfectly fine. Usually he just over-reacts to everything, like I saw nascar sucks (he likes nascar) he gets pissed at me, or if I do use a slight tone, he flips his shit and storms off. But recently, he has begun putting words in my mouth. I saw on an ad that there was tax on sonic, I was like "I think thats it kinda dumb dumb to get taxed on food, even if it is a luxury, its still food" and he goes " well its a luxury, you dont need it" and so Im like, ok yeah, but you still need food, but whatever, ok. so then hes like "nuh-uh, it makes complete sense" and he just argues with me, then finally says " fine, its your opinion" and Im like " yeah, it is so just stop arguing, you're not giving any reasons on why you are right" and he yells " oh, you always think you're right" Im like, umm... ok. and my mom asks what we are argueing about, so he says that Im saying its fact and hes always wrong. Im like, I never said that, so he says " yeah, you said that your right and Im wrong" so I told him what I actually said, and he called me a liar, so I asked what I would gain from lying, and when he couldnt think of anything, I said "exactly, nothing" so he goes and says, yeah, but you would do it anyway" and I tell him that I wouldnt, I have no reason to lie about that so why would I?" and he just yells that I do, and storms off to his room.
/rant
sorry, rate me boxes, I just had to complain about him, he's pissing me off so much recently, he's bloody 14, he should grow up. I think he might have ass burgers, but Im not sure, he hasnt officially been diagnosed with it
Why are Racism laws still existing? It's not like anyone expect some backwater rednecks are still racist.
I'm offended
[QUOTE=amcwatters;23582112]OP, you sound like the type of passive guy that's fine with no taste of decency in anything that is or is in popular culture.
Of [I]course[/I] most people leave the topic at hand alone, because they're too passive or too much of a baby to do anything about what's offensive.
It doesn't take much to just be a man, stand up and say, "Hey, that's wrong."
There's a polite way to go about these things, too.
[editline]09:56PM[/editline]
This also sustains my viewpoint.[/QUOTE]
Aha, so, just because I don't make like some conservative tightass, suddenly I'm a bad person? You know, atleast I can speak up to someone, I know how most of those "morale" or "common decency" crusaders are, they speak behind people's backs, and act like phonies right in their faces. I mean, your post makes little sense, since, my post is about what you just said, yet, you seem not to side me, it's like you're trying to get all oximoron on my ass, it's confusing. But you imply that I lack decency, but I hardly don't, I respect people's privacy, I see the color of a man's skin about as significant as the color of his eyes, I never judge a book by it's cover, and try not to exploit people unless they derserve it. Profanity and words will never define how to be "polite", do you think Adolph Hitler ever swore in public? I kind of doubt it, seeing as what a giant kissass he was, yet, he was really evil. Truth is, if someone walks up to me and tells me what words I can and can't choose, I'd say that's alot more inpolite than actually using them. Pherhaps you should shine a light on... well... common sense and science, both of which have proven that it's better to be a swearing niceguy, than a self-absorbed/righteous jackass.

Also, it dosn't substain your viewpoint, porn is known to relive stress and was only demonized by the church since they don't like it when their people are all happy. Makes them less likley to pray/hand in donations.

[QUOTE=teeheeV2;23574504]It's not racist at all. They are called boat people because funnily enough, they come illegally in boats.
We also have a proper way for them to come in as refugees. Theyvare cheating the system and the people who do the right thing. Personally, I think the boat people shouldn't be allowed to come in. We should keep them in detention until it's safe for them to back, and fly them home.
I'm fine with the people who apply properly though.
[editline]08:27AM[/editline]
I would get a BS permanent for so much racism in one post. I'm glad TH is gone, he is to oversensitive to be a mod[/QUOTE]
People are allowed to come by boat though, because they are legally allowed to seek asylum in another country for safety. So I've been told. The only people that are actually 'illegal immigrants' would be the people who over stay their Visa or whatever it's called.
[QUOTE=Raunchy;23559736]Everyone just wants to fucking sue someone else. Circle of fucking life.[/QUOTE]
I feel it is a bit more simple. What would the same person do long before suing even came around? It seems everyone wants an advantage over everyone else, and making sure it happens no matter the cost.
Yeah probably
I think it's largely an American thing.
[QUOTE=strayebyrd;23570772]They are allowed to say it to eachother if they want because [b]they weren't the ones forcing them to pick cotton and what have you...[/b]You can be racist towards white men, but it doesn't mean as much because we kind of have it coming, after the centuries of violent colonisation and slavery... The white well to do male has to face that it's probably our turn to have a bit of mud slung at us[/QUOTE]
I'm going to target the bold bit though I quoted all the sentences of your post relevant to my argument here:
[u]Neither. Was. I.[/u]
Why should I have to "have a bit of mud slung" at me, merely because someone of my ethnicity committed horrible crimes in the past. That, in itself, is racism. Treating me differently not because of my character or my actions, but the color of my skin.
You are proposing not equality here, but a sort of demented payback. None of the original victims or criminals are alive today, so how can anyone alive be to blame, merely for the color of their skin?
[QUOTE=Tanner;23595011]I think it's largely an American thing.[/QUOTE]
Whatchoo talkin' 'bout Willis, English idiots are getting offended all the time round here. 'OMG a gai shooted the peoples wit da shotgun, let's ban all guns!' Soon I forsee any guns being banned, then any mention of guns, then simply thinking about them... We claim to be 'more tolerant', but in fact we're simply less free. And to the person who said that the n word is derogatory, not really. No word is truly derogatory unless it is insulting, offending and uncalled for. If all of a sudden you saw someone with a completely different appearance to you, you'd be confused too. I'm not condoning slavery, I'm simply saying our ancestors were confused. I'm sure if the reverse had happened, the same thing would occur vice versa.

Well, aslong as you don't actually DO those things, then yeah, that is a good thing, since, it's an expression of the freedom of speech, and sadly, unless people do something, we won't have that freedom for very long. Some might deny this, but, I'd say it could be pretty much around the corner, since America pretty much tied up and raped the constitution...
rights = temporary Privileges
I honestly laugh at the people who go on about tolerance at my school, mainly because they're extremely bigoted towards gays.

[QUOTE=Paravin;23584611]Why are Racism laws still existing? It's not like anyone expect some backwater rednecks are still racist.[/QUOTE]
I still expect it.
I was working one night outside pushing carts when I hear this voice saying "White Power ". I mean just couldn't let that stand by replying this statement. " I bet you won't say that to my face."
Now I don't feel the same way like I did 2 years ago and I let most of the racist bs go because it just proves that there is no brain when that person is ranting.
Its the pepsi generation
I live in a muslim country.
'Nuff said.
Overly PC = Dumb
Punishing students for playing "I'm a Korean" in an all white school except for one asian during an assignment =/= Overly PC
In this thread everyone's saying "Used to" as if there was a golden age a few decades ago where everyone could do whatever they wanted without offending people, or as if society is getting stricter and stricter over time. [b]Wrong.[/b] Society has become more and more tolerant over time: if you were a woman in the 1920s you couldn't vote, and if you wore pants, you were a slut. But that's a really tame example - rather, look at things like civil rights or slavery in America. Roman persecution of christians, Salem witch trials, etc.
But there is another side, like how parents used to be able to spank and beat their kids if they were disobedient. Has society gotten more strict in the way people should treat their children, or more tolerant to kids' sanity? Both points could be argued.
However, the OP is right to an extent because lots of people are noticing society's trend, and becoming scared and trying to reverse it. Though generally these people tend to be religious fanatics who think the world was better back in the dark ages, because more people had faith before science came around...
OH, Also op is right because lots of people confuse tolerance and political correctness with eachother
Troll them until they are happy.

A) It's political CORRECTION! :eng101:
B) We're not discussing it, we're denouncing it, because it's based upon ignorance and christianity. Or as the political correct term would be: General ignorance.

Short answer? Yes.
Long answer? HOLY FUCK YES.[/QUOTE]
That's a good way to put it, no matter what everyone just try's to blame everything on something else when they don't want to grow up and take responsibility.
