??? And why do the mods let it continue? There's no topics about racism or any other discrimination against minorities?

these topics really bring out the idiot in people.

Because no one stands up for us time traveling vampire zombie werewolves. I just can't stand the discrimination against us on a forum where I am free to leave at any time.

And if you think creating a thread on gay marriage is "bashing", you should see some of the other threads on other topics here.

Racism is no longer acceptable, so the ignorant people need something to complain about.

Don't forget black people. Some of it is in jest, but a lot of it isn't.

Link to said gay bashing plz.

And I lol'd at the comment about there being no threads discriminating against minorities. There are plenty of topics like that and some members here are very open about their prejudices.

racism is perfectly okay here, I see it all the time. How many threads are there about a crime that happened and one of the first responses will be

"I don't even need to read the article to know what kind of person it was" those threads are never dealt with here unless it turns into a huge troll fest.

I should take that back, against Mexicans & Blacks it's fine. I made a semi off color comment about an Asian once and got 4 PM's from people who acted like I was worse than Hitler. I don't think racism against whites or Asians is acceptable here.

In all seriousness, that's like 85% of the people here. Even more if you count South Asians (Indians, Pakistanis, etc) under Asian.

You say that like it's a bad thing...IMO, no other group DESERVES more shit than the two you mentioned...except for Kiwi's...and they're too small of a group to even pay attention to...:p

Homo-secksuals are bashed because they are not a constitutionally protected group. As such, they'z fair game...:roll:

I just find it disgusting that in the year 2009 people would openly say prejudice things in a public forum.

Granted it's their own opinion and belief, and I suppose the internet is a major outlet since no one would ever say much of the hateful things they do in person so....

You know what they say, majority rules. Minorities are constantly shitted on here. I remember seeing a thread about an illegal alien who had stole something. And a few people said all illegals should be killed. Oddly enough the thread was never locked. If I said "white people should be killed" I'm sure it would result in a vacation lol.

Nah, nobody cares about white people either. Reverse racism.

Why do the mods allow allow all of the republican bashing in p&n. They have become a small minority which probably qualifies for protected status.

Because no other American political group deserves to be bashed nearly as much as the Republicans do after their abuse of America during the Bush years.

So then, all Whiteys should be bashed because of our abuse of blacks during slavery?
