WHOOPS! He's got us there folks. Shyboi made the comment on Break.com.

Oh well, flame away.
 
Wait a minute:

First it's a racist comment, and he must be banned.

Then he's just quoting a racist comment in a link and it's ok

And finally the racist comment in the link is from him and now he must be banned again? What kind of stupid logic is that?

So does that mean you can link to racist material and just quote it and not get banned? That's retarded, either ban racist material or don't, otherwise you have these stupid 'loopholes'.

I thought at first that he was exposing the stupidity of a video poster. Making fun of it, if you will. Then I was informed HE was the poster.

So yeah, exposing this kinda crap is OK, but posting it and supporting it is not.

Hell, I just posted a news story about an alleged racist slur at a sports event. Wanna ban me too?

I thought he was posting it in agreement with the link. If he was exposing the stupidity of the comment, i would think he'd add a little commentary along with it.

All a matter of perspective, of course. I often post news stories and videos with no commentary just to see which direction the discussion goes by itself.

That's different though, when you post an article, there's a ton more context. The OP was just repeating the one-liner and it seemed to me he's agreeing with it.

Like I said, all a matter of perspective. I assumed he was making fun of it.

Well, as amused said, it's perspective, but IMO i think it was pretty obvious he was in agreement with it... no quotes, and no commentary which is why i came to that conclusion. And in the end, that was his intent afterall.

Yes it was. Assumptions and perspective aren't always right. They are clouded by our own experiences and expectations.

Had I posted it that way, I would have been mocking it. So my assumption was based on my subjective mindset.

Because the hispanics have been so involved in bombings to date.

You didn't even have the correct racial stereotypes
