By what Standards are we going by in here?

[Sam Fisher]

I just want to be sure that I don't offend any members in here in the future. And by that I mean...

Yesterday I was accused of being a racist because I was using a very well known and popular photo as my avatar pic. A certain individual in here who has John Lennon for his avatar pic, called me a cunt, and many other names in the thread. And as always, the obligatory dog-pile on Sam Fisher began. Even though, I quantified the use of Al Jolson's photo by posting the many good things he did for the black community. That information fell on deaf ears as the insults, put-downs, and vulgar name calling continued against me. And, I don't even have any interaction with the guy who uses the John Lennon avatar. Yet he still slithers in and out occasionally into a thread or post of mine to perform his "hit and run".

There is also a member in here who has a political ad as his signature. It's a message about stopping the Death Penalty. Kind of amazing that his Sig pic draws no objections, but as soon as I make a thread concerning my beliefs in stopping Abortions, let the flaming begin. I can only imagine the hysteria from the left if I used an anti-abortion advertisement as a Sig for my posts.

So, concerning racism, who really is the racist? Me, because I use a photo from 90 years ago about a man who did great things for the black entertainers of the day? Or, is a racist someone who is in favor of abortions... especially black abortions. Think about that.

Do you really have to start another nonsensical thread as often as you have bowel movements?


Your avitar was extremely offensive and racist. I think you actually know that and play your "oh it shouldn't be offensive" bs because you get off on being a disgusting human being. You should be banned IMO.

I find it interesting that wiki wrote about Al Jolson without the mention of him being RACIST.

Stop and consider what Al Jolson accomplished. Oh wait, I forgot.... you didn't read the wiki article. Here, give it a looksee.

Sam, my :2 cents::

I think you're a smart guy and an insightful guy.

That said, you're not satisfied to simply sign on and shoot the shit. You have to agitate, stir the pot and rile people up.

How do you expect people to react when you intentionally post inflammatory material?

For the record, in my experience you're the only person that Stan has ever conflicted with on the board.

It's great to have a political stance, but not one so all-encompassing.

Edit - the title of this thread is a perfect example.

Yes, somewhere amongst the 832 posts, I said something or another. Just once I think. So, feel free to sound off.

Thank you.

You have to agitate, stir the pot and rile people up.

To a certain extent, yes. I like to invigorate topics and conversations. Mostly, I'm playing "devil's advocate", hoping to get people's opinions and ideas. However, I am not seeking to have bitch fests, dog pileing. etc.

How do you expect people to react when you intentionally post inflammatory material?

Actually, I don't mean for some of my posts to be inflammatory. However, take your pick in any thread and you will find PLENTY of inflammatory comments from many, many members.

For the record, in my experience you're the only person that Stan has ever conflicted with.

Remember the old saying.. and the response to that saying? -- "Hey buddy, that guy over there doesn't like you." And the correct response is... "That's his problem, not mine."

It's great to have a political stance, but not one so all-encompassing.

I suppose you are right, but I am passionate about my beliefs, just as those with opposite beliefs are passionate about theirs.

It's an election year. A lot is at stake for the next four years. I suppose I can tone it down. I;m sure by now everyone knows where I stand, lol.

Thanks Shifty for the "wake-up" call.

mid-life getting to you again?

i didnt find your avatar racist at all. i knew about him from elective theatre classes in high school. it took a little reading and refreshing to remember him, but none the less i got the point of you having it after you explained yourself.

people blow things way out of proportion too often

 

[Ace Bandage]

I love how everyone gets in a gigantic fuss over racism or anything perceived to be racist.

It's really entertaining to watch.

Careful there Andronicus, someone might see the Blackhawks logo on your Sig pic and accuse you of hating indians and wanting to wipe them off the face of the earth.

 

[PirateKing]

Lol, the only part missing from that weak counter-argument is the mentioning of a "black friend". Next you're going to make an honorary thread for some random black guy, then go to the "who made you cum today" thread and post the name of a black pornstar. Anything to shake the suspicion that you're not racist. Or just quote Donald trump and say "hey! Not true! I have a good relationship with the blacks! That guy I once aquainted myself with is black. What's his name...? Oh you get the point!".

All I know is, what a job, counting aborted fetuses that have likely been out in the sun for a few days. You also got to assume that racoons and coyotes had probably been at them, so some of the count is going to have to be based on partial remains. Just wow! That guy's probably not eating any pulled pork sandwiches anytime soon...

 

[Ike Stain]

PS
I never called you a racist, just suggested that the picture was. The new pic is much more badass anyway, so, win-win.

You are a member of a vastly large group of internet posters that likes to start shit and then object to the shit you started. You know for a fact that you are going to get the responses that you get. And that's why you come off the way you do. And you are smart enough to look at your posting history and see yourself for the bonafide attention whore that you are. You ride a Harley and wear chaps while doing it. You like attention. We get it, how 'bout you?

My internet "start", back in '96 was on a board very similar to this, in content and fervor. You were there.

When that board closed down I was already an FOG on an another board, where I spent years. Lottsa of vitriol, lottsa argument, lots for the mods to do. You were there.

I spent 3 years on an Enviro-site. You were there and there was a lot of you.

And now you're here. And you are nothing new.
