JohnRich 4 #101 October 24, 2005 Quote>Stating facts does not make me a racist. Got it? You claim that posting facts about how criminal blacks are, and opinons on what offing them all would do, does not make you a racist. Fair enough. If that's true, then posting facts about texas does not mean anyone is judging you or other texans. Do unto others and all that. I've never criticized the statement that a Texas cop and a DA prosecuted an adult store clerk. That is indeed a fact. (Oh, and by the way, a jury found the clerk innocent.) What I am criticizing is the gross stereotyping that is going on by several people as a result of this. I would think that this would be a slam-dunk issue that everyone would agree is wrong. Yet, to my amazement, many people seem to think that it is perfectly acceptable behavior to denigrate an entire group of people, for the actions of just a few. And here you are criticizing me, for standing up against bigotry... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,118 #102 October 24, 2005 You're right, John. You win. Criticizing a state for having stupid laws against porn is bigotry, but saying that aborting all blacks will reduce crime is championing equality. Sorry I didn't see that sooner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aborting all males would also reduce crime.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
