Is the President racist against White People?

[zqt3344 21]

Once again you are so right Booyah, but you watch and see one of those attacking you will whine to a mod squad member and have your posts removed or you suspended. I would be very surprised if that did not happen.

No, they aren't.

That's just what you want to believe so that you can reduce Platy to a cardboard cutout 'Lib' stereotype. It just isn't the case.

Posts in the past were not deleted. That is only a recent thing. There are a hell of a lot of examples of Platy jumping in and just throwing out insults. As there are of 50 page plus posts were you guys have gang up on posters.

Use that and apply it more generally - the view we have of message board posters is necessarily two dimensional. Use that and respond purely to what people actually post and not what you think these posts might mean if one were to hang on the 'clothing' of ideology.

Likewise, don't assume someone is a racist the second they mention race. Furthermore, hold people on the other side as equally accountable rather than stereotypically claiming their views are just isolated.

I don't think many people make those assumptions - but they do tend to assume racism when someone describes a hispanic posters family as a bunch of bowl-cutted stone-age aboriginals, or how an entire race of people has "failed" because not only are they at the lowest rung of our society, but because in countries where they have control of government - that they can't run a piss-up in a brewery.

These aren't my opinions, BY - they're yours. Things that you yourself have said unambiguously.

I don't, you have to actually use race as an identifier - which you have in the past. Not sure what you mean by 'stereotypically claiming views are isolated'. Doesn't make any sense to me.

I really think you need a new tune - preferably concerned with why it is in all these interactions that noone comes to your defence.

Oh my such anger I sense here.

[Peikko 1,575]

No one is attacking BY but thanks for your continued baiting presence in this thread zqt, it's a wonderful thing to watch

Why did Obama appoint Van Jones?

Hi did it to annoy you.

Apparently ambushing a poster is not ganging up.

Anytime MC, for you anytime!

How do you "ambush" someone on a public board?

[zqt3344 21]

Did not annoy me as much as it did Obama? He is the one that is having to answer for this reverse racism and he is the one that is going to pay the price at his next election, for this sort of thing is not going away this time. People are very upset about it.

I do not count, so therefore there is on one to your defence? WHAT the world is DEFENCE? Where did you learn to spell at Pvt Pike? De - Fence, is this some kind of hood or street slang from England? like DA FENCE man!

Next election? Three years from now, he will "pay the price"?

Most people can barely remember what they had for breakfast, much less what happened three years ago.

No actually those comments were deliberate, as per the booyah Posting rules. Don't act or pretend as if I just came out of the blue and said those things to be an a##w##e. You guys ambush a poster and antagonize them, then cry murder the second a poster returns fire but goes for the knees. The logic I am sensing is, replying with wit when wit was initially used is acceptable. However, going for the knees is not. That's your rules and your style, not mine.

The second you personally offend me, I will go for the knees. The worse your comments get, the worse I get. Now your case is a little unique as nobody knows anything about you. Yeah I am ecstatic and all that certain people know things about you because of private dealings but for the rest of us we don't know squat. At least the people who you gracefully target, have put their actual circumstances, as in life outside this forum, out there. Which you guys now classify as boasting.

But anyways, as I state earlier, you guys have every angle covered.

Yeah not really. Healthcare and the economy will be a bigger issue for the administration in the next election than some summarily dismissed underling.
