im not bashin any mods here...but....

Oops, what happened to the thread?

I deleted it, that's what. Too much flaming and/or other worthless crap that serves no purpose here. I'm not only disappointed with 7SEALS, but also all of you who consistently flamed him for his comments. This is a message board, people can post their opinions, yes, BUT, I will not stand for people posting their opinions in anything but a professional manner. I've been 'working' here too long to see this place torn apart about some stupid joke.

That's right, he said it was a joke, and, though I'm not racist, I laughed. Yes, I laughed because I do have an understanding with people of all races. I don't discriminate, and I use some form of what may be racist to make fun of people who actually are racist.

No, I wouldn't have posted what he posted, nor would I have attacked him for what he posted. He has an opinion, and he's allowed to share it. I wouldn't mind if ONE of you had said, "Excuse me, could you please stop making racist and otherwise offensive comments, I don't like it." And he would have stopped, or else.

Ok, I'm white, does this mean I don't have an understanding of comedy, no. I'm dragging this point on only to show that some people do have a skewed sense of logic and comedy, and I apologize for those people who can't explain themselves, because, I feel I am capable of doing so. If anyone has any other questions/comments on the subject, feel free to post them.

Mind you, this post does not pardon anyone from their violations of the rules you follow to agree by posting, but it also isn't meant to punish anyone. I don't beleive in strict punishment for a single, minute mistake, though, if necessary, I would follow through with one.

Thanks for your time, and I apologize once again if I come off as anything other than an open, sincere, and otherwise non-racist person.

Here was my whole point. Think before you type. You can read over what you just typed and think to yourself.. Hey! That sounds a little racist. Let me re-word it. But by saying you won't play basketball because your not black is like saying you won't eat taco's cause your not mexican. Its like.. What the hell are you thinking? Why would you type that?

Great post Dakilla..I agree with you. Now I'm gonna say this without bein against anyone from this site.

Race is a very touchy subject to many people around the world. I know this is over the top but wars are fought over this(hint...hint...dakilla). It bothers people whether it's a whole nation or one person saying it to a forum board. I personally don't think he was trying to offend anyone, but sometimes you have to watch what you say. I love jokes be it racial or not but I don't make comments to people who don't know your real personality.

I must have missed the original post. Probably a good thing. Glad to see everyone has reached an understanding of one-another

I didn't want to take up too much room by quoting 'Killa, but wow....

Well said, bro... well said.

[P.O.T.U.S.]
