Dude - Whats up with the dar return?

Racism is dying a long slow death. It will never be completely eradicated, but over time the numbers will be so small as to not be significant.

I hope thats not you or your friend/son/brother.... in that pic.

Either way - good to see you posting again.

Oops. My fingers got ahead of my brain again.

What type of racism? Typical American/European racism?

Dead, but not dead. Alive, but small enough as to not be significant, but alive. Dying, never to die, merely to become as to not be significant. There, but only a shadow. A veritable pimple on the ugly ass of the caucazoid majority.

Dying,

slowly.

Never completely eradicated.

small numbers

insignificant...

but not dead.


*fingers snapping*

Way to hijack the thread, boys.



Now no one's thinking about racism (dead or alive), they're all watching you two squabble.

I'm getting closer every day to becoming anti people.

People suck, fuck everybody.

Spexx, Classic's post makes complete sense to me. Racism as a widespread political/ social/ personal motivator will slowly cease to exist. At least I hope so. But there will always be those who follow behind social/ economic and political trends. The Amish for example - their numbers are so small as to not be significiant. And the influence of the Mormons...

Many Christians still think The Gays were what destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, rather than a lack of hospitality to Angels. And also forget Lot got off scott-free both for destroying his wife and laying with his daughters. Go figure. People's minds are messed up.

Classic, I don't really think it was selective quoting.
I got what you both said.

And Dar - that linked article lacks an awful lot of information.
I am not saying racism does not exist. But if two of the friends live in the neighbourhood and one close by (the way I read it) it seems like an excessively violent racial attack that happened for no other reason in an integrated area.

I know there are racist arseholes out there. I know they can spur eachother on. The same way there are men out there who gang rape with no previous convictions. So I am laying blame or casting aspersions. I am just questioning the lack of details in the account.
