My last post got locked by the local idiots. I used the term "ghetto monkey" to describe a group of animals that life in a scummer rental three blocks from my home.  I did not refer to them by race, creed, color, religion or nation of origin.  What the hell makes that a racist comment?  It may have been inflamatory or offensive as it was intended to be, these folks are trash from the word go, but it never referred to anyones race.

Trash comes in all colors, if some of you did not know that,,sorry.

I have been a member of this board thru three or four incarnations and never had this happen.  I tolerate the religious right extremists that run this place, the homophobes and 18 year olds posing as actual shooters, the locking of posts without recourse and the other crap that limits the conversation here.  I did not use a racist comment, an offensive one is not racist, just offensive.

Many people think that the term "monkey" is used by racists to refer to blacks, but I don't know why.

That having been said, it won't be long before this thread is locked as well.  Any discussion of race is inevitably locked.  Gotta stay PC.

So...



IBTL, MF!

In reality, in means In Before The Lock.  I added the MF not as an insult towards you, but to emulate the speech of my local ghetto PEOPLE (edited as to not offend by using a non-human primate noun in refrence to such persons).

If you're so unhappy, why do you stay?  Far be it from me to protect the mods, I think they do a fine job of it for themselves, but this is a privately owned board, and the owners are free to dictate and enforce any rules that they desire.  May I suggest fullauto.com, as they seem to have more of an "anything goes" attitude, and may have even been created as a response to complaints like yours.

Absolutely,  One or the other may be correct, or both or none.

Unfortunately we are just a bunch of people on a BBS, not the omnicient people we should be!  [;)]
