    If you don't like it, then don't get involved. Personally, even when it's random bickering like this thread, I learn a lot about myself from my reactions to whatever they're arguing right and left on.

    Yes, it can get annoying--but they have provoked each other back and forth about EVERYTHING for AGES.
    True.

    Okay, I'll leave and let the kids play. ;)

    This site it biased and I wouldn't even attempt to post anything about how the majority of racists in america now are indeed black, and other FACTS like that. Don't waste your time... if anything you say actually makes sense, it will be deleted. PS. I find your post quite funny, and it fits in with the LIBERAL mindset. Kudos.

    Facts?

    Prove it.

    As for being biased, no, not true. You have continuously posted things that have to be removed because of your attitude. It has nothing to do with being biased, it's about following the rules of this site and treating people with respect.

    You have a right to your beliefs, but be mindful that others also have a right to theirs.

    Okay, really, I'm out now.

    That's my whole point. Why insult entire groups of people with THIS nonsense, when the attack was on one man?

    And he asks when I had my sense of humor removed!

    I'll ask the same question about his TESTICLES.

    Bottom line is, that I live, work, raise children, in a VERY racially sensitive area. I don't think that it's appropriate to joke around like this.

    There are some people here that even think the OP was serious, and not a joke.

    You've missed the point of this entire satire. The entire group of people being made fun of here are the race-baiters who use racism to explain their own shortcomings, NOT an ethnic group or genotype. Your area isn't that much more sensitive than South Boston or Indianapolis (where there have been race riots in the news more recently than Atlanta) and I am firmly convinced that racism will only be eradicated by the efforts of the little people like you and me. The Al Sharptons and Maureen Dowds and David Dukes in this debate ONLY add fuel to the fires and deserve ridicule.

    The term “pure vanilla” is racist.

    I understand completely Cats. But when you start a satire like this as an attempt to get revenge with another member(excon), you're opening up a can of worms. I totally understand the problem, and am in agreement, actually.

    I'm not as stupid as I sometimes sound.

    The line has been crossed. The "N" word, and "Jews", it's just not needed.

    Some people are getting offended.

    We all know what's going on, but why make it worse?

    Let's be honest here, this thread wasn't started as a joke, it was
    Started as a direct slam at Excon.
    Oh... so you can read my mind now...

    First of all, it WAS started as a slam of excon... because what excon was saying was so blantantly, hysterically dumb. It wasn't a slam at excon himself, but rather what he said.

    Second, why is that a bad thing? Don't you think that blatant misrepresentations of non-racial remarks as racism SHOULD be slammed as the idiocy they are?

    Or do you believe that people who accuse others of racism when it is CLEARLY untrue should be allowed to get away with it?

    If it was really meant to be a joke, a way to discuss racism with humor, then the OP wouldn't have included "In honor of Excon".

    If you enjoy laughing at someone else's expense then carry on.
    Ok... I will.
