This is the best argument. I agree with this. If it's equality, then a white person should not be punished for something while a minority gets off the hook for the same thing.Jedoro said:
Well I'le add my little opinion here, I don't know if every one is going to like it but it's my opinion and I think there's a lot of truth to it.
First off I can gather that most people on this site (Well at least all those posted so far) don't have a Racist bone in there body, and that's good, then we can discuss this without any bias thoughts.
Okay were to begin, ho yeah, The whole slavery issue, well for one you can't hold on to this card, a lot of Black People these day's tend to believe that there the only people to have ever been enslaved, well a message to the racist black man who likes to call every one cracker and honkey, here's a news flash, your not, the slave trade was going on a way, way, way, way before America or Britain was even discovered, Romans used to capture and enslave there enemies and sell them in the slave trade, and most of Rome's enemies weren't black, they were white, they were nordics a lot of them, they came from every part of the earth that they knew of including Italy. The Greeks had a slave trade going on, even Africa had it's own slave trade, yes black people using black people as slaves and Black people using White people as slaves. I could probably bet you that at just about every country and ever ethnicity has been used as slaves before.
Another thing about the whole slave trade in America, well I'm going to get boo'd for saying this but, well it was a good thing in the long run, before you start throwing tomatoes at me just think about it, even though a lot of your ancestors had to go through hell but now your at least free in America rather then in Rwanda getting shut and killed just for the sake of it, or Indonesia starving to death with plagues and disease's every were, I mean people who live on a bad street in a bad neighbour hood may think there in poverty, but go to a "bad neighbour hood in Rwanda and you'll think twice.
That aside though I'm not that bothered about racism, I don't get offended when I'm watching Lenny Henry or Chris Rock I laugh my arse of at it, the same way I laugh at Roy Chubby Brown. I'm not into racism but if it's a laugh and a joke I don't mind being the race the joke is aimed at. I can live with those jokes and just accept the stereotype
, however when it starts to get a little too serious I tend not to laugh and not take it for a joke, sorta the reason I don't like Bernan manning (Goes just that mile too far and keeps on sprinting).
I'm all for equality and one day I hope it to be a equal world but at the moment it just isn't happening, a lot people need to change there attitude and way of thinking before that happens, the KKK need to get a grip and a lot of Black people need to learn to move on and stop living in the past.
Also I do have a feeling the first and middle part of my comment may hit some nerves and for that I apologise I don't mean offend any one, these are just my opinions and I'm free to discuss what I have said but please if it did offend any one and you feel like bring me up on it, please do it with some sort of rational and don't just start screaming at me.

Maybe because whites weren't enslaved for a good two hundred years?
But yes I do get pissed off when you can't say something about a black guy without being "racist."

I've actually met someone who was a real anti-white racist, I was pretty shocked. It was some militant, India Hindu guy who basically said that every white person was evil and stupid, and that his glorious culture was the source of all progress in the world. Something like that. It felt so weird talking with that guy. and yes I'm white myself.
Its nice to see someone going further back in history than a couple of hundred years. Also the spanish ensalved native americans when america was "discovered". Slavery has been a sad event in history and i agree with you. I find lenny henry funny especially as he makes jokes about himself too but groups like the BNP and kkk are in my opinion are just backward.Sovvolf said:Well I'le add my little opinion here, I don't know if every one is going to like it but it's my opinion and I think there's a lot of truth to it.

I have dream that one day we will all not give a shit about words like ****** or honky or curry boy or ***** or what ever !
they should be obselete because just think if some ad campaign was made where a variety of people from different races were all greeting each other happily by saying racist names that way it would simply become meaningless.
e.g.
White man: Hey Nigga ! whats new ?
Black Man: yo honky ! na nothing just chilling , how about you ***** ?
*****: Sorry nigga and honky i'm the same just chilling.

There's a point when criticism devolves to petty nitpicking, And from the looks of your other posts, you seem to incite argument rather than rational debate. If you're not careful, you'll end up enraging many more forum goers with your contradictions. The point of this website is to share your views and debate them in a civilised manner, as well as for support and simply sharing your love of videogames. If you're willing, I'll happily stay out of your way as long as you stay out of mine. We're clearly not the most compatible people, so let's just agree to disagree and move on.hoopyfrood said:
I'm not 100% on this, but my Common Sense superpower is tingling in the direction of this possibly having something to do with......SLAVERY?!?! You know, the fact that black people were owned and sold as chattel might have something to do with the hard feelings. Possibly.
