Got to love our Mayor in West Palm Beach, racist comments...

to be fair i only would expect those that work out often or in sports know what hammy refers to. IF i said hammy to my ex she would think i wanted a sandwich. if i said it to one of my buddies he would ask how my leg.

I just asked 11 different co-workers (3 females, 8 males) "What is pulling a hammy."
They all knew it was pulling a hamstring.

Small sample size, I know, but the point still remains.

Damn it appears ATOT hates the black people of this world...that is really sad.

Fortunately, my city is mostly above those poster's peer group and looking to fix it.

Gotta say I disagree as well... you seem to be the only one going apeshit about race.
 
Not to agree with the board racists but I saw Wiz Khalifa in Baltimore a year ago. The crowd was white frat boy douchebags with flatbrims smoking a lot of weed.

So if that is the crowd your mayor is complaining about then I can see her point.

I also saw Kid Cudi and Chip the Ripper in Detroit and that crowd was honestly all 13-16 year old white girls. Not even joking.
I was waiting for Chris Hanson to jump out.

There was no line to the beer places because I think we were the only over 21's there except for the "cool dad's" who hung out in the corners drinking with us.

I am not sure what black people are listening to, but chances are if it plays on a clearwater national station like Kiss.fm, it isn't that.

lol, you are writing checks you can't cash.

Apparently on ATOT people want to disagree with anything I say. This is pretty big news locally and pretty much across the board people of all skin colors can't believe this blantantly racist statement.
 
Just because you say dumb things, doesn't entitle you to label everyone a racist.
Maybe, it does. But it doesn't make you correct.
The magic of the Internet.

maybe b/c we're not morons who believe everything the media tells us?

please, do tell us, what specific part of her statement was racist and what makes it racist? i still think you have NO idea what true racism is.
 
Nobody even defines racism the same way. Pretending that different racial groups do not act in different ways is truly ignorant. Whether the mayor's observations are on point or not I don't know or care enough to look into.

This is my Mayor, it's not just the media spinning a story.

I think you make a terrible troll.
 
Paging allisolm, paging allisolm, clean-up after your pet troll in Off Topic. :awe:



Mod-callouts and mod-baiting are not acceptable, it is a violation of the posting guidelines.

13) Baiting moderators will not be tolerated nor will Mod Call Outs. Any action that reasonably can be considered baiting a moderator, or multiple consecutive actions that heavily push the boundaries of any of these guidelines will result in an instant short term vacation. Repeated violation of this rule may result in a permaban.

You know this, you've already been sanctioned on three other occasions for mod-callouts and mod-baiting.

Clearly whatever efforts the moderators have put forth in past attempts to encourage you to change your approach to the forums has failed. As such it is time to change our tactics in one last-ditch effort to help you integrate and acclimate yourself to this community.

Whichever path you chose from from here, I hope you chose the one that nets you exactly whatever it is that you are seeking.
