That's fine, my friend.

Still... it could be insulting to them if they're thinking that it's a shock black men are good, but that wouldn't be fair to me, becasue that wasn't the intention based on how I explained in the OP.



Everybody knows it wasn't your intention.
 
You see how people on P&N react when someone posts a thread that doesn't involve blacks being the boogey people?


They accuse YOU of being racist. Stop trying Rob. You should have just posted a crime story, to be honest.

This forum has an obsession with reporting on black crimes, and then ragging on black people. When you call them on it, they say that's not what they're doing....that its YOU who has the problem. This is a positive story, and some of you are acting like its so fucking absurd that somebody would want to post something like that here? Seriously?!


How can some of you shitheads call Rob racist for using the word Thug when MANY of you have already stated that robbing and killing is just part of black culture and that we need help? So tired of the bullshit that is allowed in this forum. Darkman probably just got banned just so it would look like somebody actually cared about what direction the forum was going. He had over 4,000 posts here and somebody just now figured out he was copy/pasting shit from Stormfront and Vanguard News Network? 🙄

Yeah, the only ones who call "race" are the ones mad because they're going to have to change their preconceived ideas that all blacks are thugs...this being an awfully strong case against that because these guys were between the 16-30 range (I think) where the "thuggery" tends to take root.

Bigots don't like change -- look at the pre-civil rights movement, and the current opposition to SSM. Homophobes and Spatia...uh.... racists are complimentary.

Link to this. I can only think of two or MAYBE three members who have even come close to saying anything like that and they are all banned. And even when they DID say something along those lines it was for the most part of (IMO) a reasonable discussion on the topic.

And that's really what we need, a reasonable and healthy discussion. Instead you have a couple of (admitted) racists trying to argue their point, and 5-6 thug supporters who from there on out treat ANYONE with a different opinion as though they're one of the 2-3 racists.



Stop trying to drag the forum's name through the gutter. If things were your way the first amendment would be used to light a burning cross. You need to stop with the whining pity party when a discussion steers in a direction that you don't agree with and you're unable to have a reasonable argument against it.


If you don't like the open and upfront conversation, if it's too difficult for you, then you need to visit a forum that is heavily moderated and biased to only allow the views you just so happen to agree with.

Yes, I agree. I haven't cared much for this forum after Darkman was allowed to post his thread about the Anniversary of Dr. King's "Farce" on Washington.

P&N digusts me.

Actually that story was reported on cnn, or something similar to it. I don't recall the darkman thread so maybe it went downhill, I don't know.


But, here we go again... You don't like the message? Silence the messenger.

You can't have an open intelligent debate, you'd rather just get people banned and try to shut down any conversation.
 
Would probably just make people feel even sorrier for Robby. He really wanted this thread to go well. It was supposed to cure racism.

Blame everything under the sun on "creepy ass crackas" won't cure racism?

I guess you're unaware of the last few threads here.

No one hardly ever refers to white crime as thuggery, even in the UN thread, I've yet to see anyone call Assad a "thug". On this forum, thug is exclusive to blacks, and I think you know that.

I am trying to remedy that with some good news concerning black men.

What an idiot.

First of all so what. Would you have posted this if white guys did this. O didn't think so, and that IS RACIST! *Not saying it wasn't a good thing, it was.*

Second of all I would most certainly call somebody a thug no matter what color he is, if he dressed and acted like it. But not all criminals are thugs, some are just down right freaking insane, while others are like more business men.

Excuse me? Even the mods agreed that Darkman was up to something sinister. You admitted you didn't see the thread, so you have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

Haha, go hug a downed powerline, please. Stop pretending like you know everybody. You don't.

SHM, please, calm down and read what I'm posting. Let it sink before allowing the fingers to fly.


"Yes, I agree. I haven't cared much for this forum after Darkman was allowed to post his thread about the Anniversary of Dr. King's "Farce" on Washington."



My response is that I don't know EXACTLY what he specifically posted, but clearly you are upset that he was allowed to post on that particular topic.

I'm saying that the king/farce thing was on cnn..... So you're simply trying to silence a reasonable topic... You were upset that he was "allowed to post his thread about XYZ".

Rather than attack the topic, or anyone who might agree/disagree, take the time to calm down and read what people are actually posting.

Yes, I would have posted this about white guys IF 99% of the threads about white people here as of late, were down right degrading and racists like all the "thug" related threads about blacks are here.


So it's not about them being "black" as it is about ONLY the negativity surrounding blacks being posted about.


It's sharing positive news...to bad you don't like hearing good news.

And to address your edit, please don't wish death upon me over a simple conversation. It's so sad that you won't have a decent discussion with me, instead you post stuff like this and run away.

You're smart enough to have a good debate, I wish you would do so rather than fly off the handle.

I don't have to discuss anything with you because you're a condescending asshole. I have no duty to be friendly towards you.


And again, you did not see Darkman's thread, I am not sure if you have seen his other threads either. He was clearly copy/pasting stuff from other websites without leaving any comment on any of his "stories" he was flooding the thread with race stories. His "Farce on Washington" was just the icing on the cake.

If I were to post a positive story about a black person on this forum everyday, people would have a problem with it. That would be considered race baiting. If I created an alt and only posted black crime stories, people would be ready and willing to talk about whatever.
 
Well we could always get statistics involved and post numbers of any said race showing the amount of good news stories vs. bad news stories to draw a conclusion. But that would be silly.

You remember the "problem with blacks" thread last month, or some stupid title like that, and in that thread, I saw not one person complain about the title, content, nor race-baiting.... NO ONE (outside of you an I), but this thread is a racist thread, and it's positive!?!?

This is a sad indictment on people who want to "pile on" negative "thug" behavior while complaining about how it's hurting America, then you have a few positive young black athletes not stealing when they had good opportunity to do so, and giving credit to them is "insulting", "racists"...

LOL!

CNN characterized the MLK 1963 march on Washington for civil rights as a "farce on Washington?" I can't imagine the controversy that would have caused for a mainstream news organization to be that racially insensitive. Please provide a link.

Here is CNN discussing the 50th anniversary of the "march."

Must have been another article where they called it a farce.
