Well the one thing we can agree on is that we don't hate each other. My hot button as of late has been the incessant need that everyone has to point out racism, as though it's a sacred cow. Everyone that has objected to Barack Obama has been labeled a racist. And it's a stone that gets bigger as it rolls down hill.

Fact is I think BO is an idiot, but that's about his policy and lack of experience (but that belongs in another area on this forum.

Was I policing you? probably no more than you were policing the other guy. Defending the "racist" comment? no, i just didn't view it as that as much as a tasteless statement made in jest.

So to end this back and forth, keep the peace, no harm brother.

WTF are you talking about? "People need to stop being sensitive" is a really old tag line; it was prefaced with "you" in the past for the longest.

The fact that someone made a racist comment while trying to insult a car and I called them on it is not PC; it's calling BS when you see it. I can care less about someone being PC. It's always better to know where they're coming from. People can have whatever belief system they want, that’s their prerogative. But, it is not incumbent on me to listen to or read their racist or political slurs and pretend all is okay in the land of OZ.

BTW, you are the one who chose the role of policing me when I said something about it; "If you're going to cry about people go to your friends and do it but keep it out of this forum please because you look stupid doing it". I hardly need you to give me permission to speak; last I checked, you don't run this forum. Racism is Ignorance and Ignorance is Bliss. You can keep defending this BS "what some random person puts in a post about a car, even with racial tainting" 'til the cows come home. It amazes me. Take care and miss me with the BS.
