i think things are out of hand with racism... alot of people now associate anything with racism if it sounds remotely like it.. i remember we almost got jacked because we said a kid looked like gary coleman... i'm sorry but that isn't racist..
it's like someone saying i look like some guy form some band... it's insane

indeed, everything is over hyped about "racism"...hey black man! OGM YOU RACIST! SUE!!!
hell most of the clichés used by people about other races are used by said races themselves.
like me i'm latino, most of clichés about latinos? guess what we like them it makes us laugh.

yeaaa people care too much about what other people say. But on the other hand, to what extent is freedom of speech?

when pertaining to racism? when you repeatedly say the same remark over and over with intent to harm, or when said remark is followed by an agressive display of physical force, that's when it becomes racism in my view.

Yea I have, its sort of an inside joke with my family. jk
There are words that literally mean a dergatory comment towards a race in other languages.
Cantonese: Gwei-lo = generally white people
Gwei means ghost, for their pale complexion

Im not Racist but the Pakistani people round my way are annoying, they are no longer the minority ethnic group its the fxcking MAJORITY, they came in fine, they dont work, build their mosques everywhere, then expect to be treated like Gods... Another thing, sometimes they get away with things other races would get in trouble for, i have seen it several times, you Pa*i, you white bx*tard, the white person in great trouble and pakistani isnt.
Im not saying all are like that but i have seen those happen a lot round my way. I think i have that view because they are turning some of the local areas into a right state, asian graffiti everywhere etc. I have also heard a lot of stories about pakistanies round my way mugging people etc. when it was a nice place before, now a lot of people are scared to go out. I dont live there but thats like 10-15 mins away and its not a nice site...
no offence anyone
And i know white people do all those things but not half as much as ive noticed pakistanies do...

I've been getting racist and/or sterotypical comments thrown at me nearly everyday since I started school, but I guess I've gotten used to it by now. After all, it's been over 10 years..haha.

... it's all a big scale.. sometimes it depends on who those comments are being said to .. and what the contents of those comments are...
i'm not 100% sure but like there's a country called niger in africa... that have anything to do with the word known to be controvercially rascist?

could be deadloader could be but if your calling some one a niger (srry if anyone is offended ) the all your baisically calling them is the name of a counntry

that is a negative niger is a country in africa but the term nigger which is actually in the dictionary translates into lamens terms as a dumbass lazy motherfucker
slave owners used it alot for several reasons the number one reason they used it is the slaves could not read write or normally speak english so they were considered ignorant.....and other questions about racist comments, terms , or slang shoot them my way. im an authority on being an asshole
and no im NOT racist i hate every1 equally so dont even start

Syd, what was the point of the post?
I use the term "nigga" at school all the time with my black friends, they don't care. If I were to use "nigger" they would care, and probably kick my ass if I were to do it again.
I also call some of my mexican freinds (no, calling someone mexican isn't bad) beaner, wetback, and so on. They don't really care either.
They call me "cracka" "whitie" and more. I guess it more slang then an insult these days.
Anyways, I use some racial terms as slang, and I could see how that could be translated into racial remarks.

If racism is so bad then why is it so comonplace. Think of it this way, Its ok for some black guy to call another black guy "nigger" or use it in their rap and so on. But god forbid someone white utters that word and they get sued up the ass.
