Forum rules
In this forum dedicated to Racial and Religious Discrimination / Stereotyping, you will find controversial topics and ideas.

The main rule in this area is to stay away from racist comments or attacks. But, in the same respect, this is a place to state your thoughts and ideas on racial profiling, whatever they might be.

I have ZERO tolerance for racial remarks and insults, but, if you'd like to share ideas respectfully, you are free to do so.

Racism = Dumb. Get Over It.

Postby event_horizon » Sat Apr 09, 2011 2:23 pm

I just wanted you people to know, that the main reason that racism is the dumbest thing to be apart of is that, nobody gets to choose the race they are.

Did I choose to be white, black, tan, or whatever? No, I didn't.

I'm white, and I love heavy metal/death metal, gangsta' rap, rave, and classic 70's rock music. I like to bop my head to a good rap song just as much as I like to slam dance at a good metal gig.

If you were an alien visiting Earth, would you look at its inhabitants as a whole?...or would you separate them based on skin color, or if they had a laptop or a billyclub?...

Ya think an alien might treat a fighter pilot differently than a spear-carrying jungle hop-head? I dunno. I'm just trying to keep things in perspective here. :crazy:

Something to think about. :lol:

I was arguing with some drunken idiot about racism the other day, and felt compelled to post this. It just amazes me that we still have these "people" in the world, in this day and age.

Powerful words.

I bet that guy's a pedophile, though. :lol:

Creepy.
