You guys should read back through this debate about SYG. This is what is happening across America... people with opinions ramming them down other peoples' throats as though they are some kind of moral authority. | |

I have an opinion too about that shooting. I watched the video. Both of these men are pieces of shit. | |

Yes, I agree. One of them died for being a typically testosterone-filled male whom saw his family being verbally ... idk ... assaulted? abused? ... it's not really important. His behavior was over the top in that his first approach was to escalate the verbal confrontation to a physical one. | |

Gorilla seems like an apt analogy for a person indiscriminately flailing brute strength. If I had taken a second to think about it, I would have realized how not-PC it is to liken black people to gorillas. I didn't do that, because I don't think I should have to. I shouldn't have to narrow my vocabulary, or be forced to discriminate among my vocabulary, just to accommodate racial sensitivity. |

Of course you're not going to apologize. It's just ironic that a self-professed "zomg i'll bust your teeth if you ever call me a racist to my face" (as if anyone here wants to meet you in person lol) guy finds it apt to compare an angry black person to a gorilla. | |

I would. But I swear to L. Ron that I forgot. Literally. We were talking about the race thing yesterday, and now we're all caught up in the actual incident, and not the manipulative demagoguery that followed. So yeah, my thoughts were all within the context of two people in an altercation about a parking dispute. Race wasn't in there. |

So, in your mind's eye you imagined two men in an altercation, and could vividly describe one of them as "flailing like a gorilla". But in your mind he had no skin colour? All you can describe are his actions and nothing else about him, nothing even as basic as whether he was a black man, white man, hispanic man, etc. ? | |

No, when I see a thick-bodied primate charging and flailing violently without provocation, I think "gorilla" because I've seen actual gorillas before and that's what they do. |

It didn't even occur to me that "gorilla" can be seen as racist, until you mentioned it. | |

It didn't occur to me either, even though I did know of the connection. It's just not something I'm sensitive to because I live in a state with like six black people and this doesn't come up very often. |

Only because you assume I'm a feminist (which I'm not). And I don't know what you're talking about racism for, sorry. | |

It's a fair paraphrase, imo. It's certainly what you implied. That's why I called you out on it, because it can so easily be interpreted exactly as poop descirbed it. In fact, I'm struggling to find a different way to interpret "if you call me racist to my face, you might want to take a careful inventory of your teeth", or whatever the exact wording was. | |

Gorilla can be used in a racist context, of course. It can also be used perfectly aptly to describe a testosterone-fuelled brute who beats his chest instead of using rationale. | |

Haha, it was 'fine' for you, but if you ask 100 random black people if it is 'fine' in ANY context, i reckon >90 will say 'fuck you'. | |

I forgot the race of the person involved when I read the gorilla comment. I was talking about SYG, and it had fuck all to do with race for me, except for the fact it's only newsworthy because it suits the racist agenda of the media. | |

Ong, your broad stroke of classing all Muslims as wanting to enact Sharia law and oppress {whomever} is prejudice on the scale of racism. | |
