Appeal to the Moderators: TOL is for Dialogue? Really?

[ClimateSanity]

Trad looked "straight at the woman" with a "giant grin on his face" and called her the n-word - that's not careless, that's INTENT.

The woman probably has heard it her whole life - and it most probably hurt her every. single. time. You think n-words only hurt when you're a child? They're even more cruel said to a child, but the n-word has no age limit on hurt. Or hate. Do you think because "she's used to it" that it somehow mitigates Trad's behavior? If so, that's a part of the harm caused by overt racism and bigotry.

Frankly, the way you keep giving him the benefit of the doubt is mind-boggling, particularly when he undercuts you repeatedly by saying that yes, that is what he meant, what he thinks, what he is.

How could it be with intent when he was shocked at the realization that she read his lips?

PC is often a reaction in the extreme.

As is often many a reaction to what is percieved by another as being an extreme PC reaction.

To be PC or not PC...

Often, neither is the nobler.

The middle ground between the two inadvertently compromised.

He doesn't like people who are racially different than him.

Unlike you, of course, who tolerate them.

Okay. Got it.

And a half truth is still a full lie. Your nose grows and grows, Anna.


He was in a closed car and the girl turned her head and may have read his lips. You spend so much time looking for evil, it makes me think you need it to survive. Blood in the water. It may only be a cut finger, but this shark will seek it out. :think:

Edomite paranoia

Who are the Edomites today?
Where are they?

 

[Crucible]

Who are the Edomites today?
Where are they?

Edomites are basically any ethnicity that is considered 'white'. From Edom and Esau.
That's where we fit into the spectrum of origin.

In today's lesson, we are going to define the word 'bigot' and how in some instances it actually refers to the person stating it more so then the person who is being labeled so.

Bigot- a person with strong, unreasonable ideas about other people

Who is stating logical conclusions, and who is mindlessly throwing anyone who disagrees derogatory statements?

Let that sink in, GM.

Your uncanny brilliance amazes me. :darwinsm:

Unlike you, of course, who tolerate them.

Zoo is almost as intelligent as an "Intellectually Slow Amoeba."

Oh dear, calling an Amoeba "intellectually slow" is so intolerant. :shocked:

You'd best stand in the corner until the PC police give you permission to leave.

(Just make sure you apologize profusely and promise to never be that cruel and disdainful ever again...so long as you live, amen.)

Where does one even start to arrive at that conclusion?

Yeah, what was I thinking?

You are suggesting Trad was lusting after her? What version of events did you read? :shocked:

Here ya go....show me the lust. :chuckle:

I don't exactly remember the context, but my sister and maybe one or two other people are in the car, who (at least at the time) didn't use the n-word. I look straight at the woman (I'm in my car, mind you, with the windows rolled up...this was for the "benefit" of those in the car with me) and find myself saying, with a giant grin on my face, (again, I don't remember the context; this may or may not have been in the context of a sentence) "[n-word]!" It just so happened that, at that very moment, she happened to look straight at me, and I'm like: "Crap! She read my lips, didn't she...?"

Poor Trad....now he's a lustful racist. The PC crowd will have accused of being a school shooter before you know it. :shocked:

Peacemaker beat you to it. Did you see her recent thread?

Not exactly, of course, but the association was made.

It's funny, but the moment I posted it I wondered if you'd understand the point or do what you just did.

You're adorable.

That's right, Town......pretend like you had a point when you quoted a verse about lusting when the subject was racism. Go ahead. opcorn:

Oh yes, and Town quotes lusting verses when I mentioned the lady crossing the street. He must think you are secretly attracted to black ladies. This is like a "whisper game". Peacebreaker compares you to school shooters with Asperger Syndrome and Town thinks you need to be schooled on lusting.

I can hardly wait for these red hot rumors to reach Anna's ears and see what comes out her mouth. :chew:
