Racism

[SoV]

Very disappointing that the mods aren't cracking down on the racist posts on SBR.

[ngates815]

Can you link us up to them, I'm sure the mods don't read every single post on here, so do your job and tell us about your "disappointments"

[B1GER1C828]

freedom of speech IMO.

[pavyracer]

Hit the red triangle under the post # to the right when you see racism. Racism should not be allowed. Sometimes mods don't see all the threads but when you report the racist post they move it to PZ. Sometimes it takes a few hours but it eventually finds its way to the landfill.

[SBR Lou]

We can divert individual posts that cross the line. It's tough to move whole threads on account of a few bad apples.
As ngates815 said, make sure to hit the Report Post () icon when you find any over the top comment(s).

[sam9ball]

Just to let ya know some have received infractions.

[Mikail]

I agree. Racist posts are unacceptable. I have been given infractions for things as slilly as telling someone I wish they'd leave the forum. Yet those posts of racist jabs are allowed.

white people don't complain about racism...kinda limits the crowd as to who is bitching

White people dont complain about racism because they are the ones doing it.

Exactly! Some people think they can get away with murder because they are white.

[Emily_Haines]

Jeez just about every thread in the political section contains massive racism.

Usually from the same one or two clowns

cough, cough Winnipeg Jets, curious

not surprising but these are a couple of the biggest supporters of the tea party and they fit right in

Good stuff

Will be reporting in the future. Thread can be closed now, thank you.

You will get a PM usually from WillieBee telling you that you've recieved the infraction and why.

[shari91]

Bullshit Brock. I'm as white as they come and this forum is making a name for itself for allowing racist posts constantly. Enough is enough. Either declare yourselves as geared to Caucasians or step on it immediately when these things occur. There are enough Mods, in enough time zones, that there should be no excuse.

[SoV]

I'm English and you can't get whiter than us.

But some people on here are still living under a rock.

Just saw this thread. Two questions:

1. Why is it in the Political forum?
2. Why are all these racists allowed to say these things like ape and kunte kinte?

SBR needs to step up to the plate and hire a mod with the sole responsibility of eradicating racism from this forum because what happened today is disgusting.

This is the first thing they scream out (like this racist) when they start with the racist BS

Excellent post, agree on all counts.

Dead wrong. I'm as white as they come and I complain on a regular basis when I see that kind of crap. I don't want to belong to a community that allows it, I figure if I sit here quietly then I get what I deserve. Nothing is more pathetic than 30 year white guys sitting behind the safety of their computers running their gator about other people based solely on the color of their skin. I'm embarrassed for them as I know they aren't smart enough to realize eveone else sees them as cowards.

Brock , don't be an idiot . I am white and I've complained. I am also Jewish and am really troubled and sad by all the Jew hating I see here.

Typically, I try to avoid threads where anti-(black,jewish,muslim) posts are likely to occur, but I can't completely avoid them. For the most part I choose to not respond and I am not proud of that. Instead I make it a point to never open a thread by the racists/haters I see. I'm sad to say the list continues to grow.

black ppl are faster runners than white ppl ()

sad that i can be on other forums trading growing Tips with 1% bikers and Aryan Brotherhood members fresh out the joint and race never comes up but on a gambling forum its an issue.

Do you read your own posts Em? Every other one is about 'angry white people'...that, by definition is racism.

I don't see it unless it's in a joke thread. Quite a few of us around too so maybe I missed it.

Really?

race card is soo played out

100% true! When was the last time you heard a white man say "He called me a Honky! That really hurt my feelings. I want him off the air!". I'm really not trying to take sides here but lets be honest people. You can make a movie called "White Man Can't Jump!" and nobody blinks an eye. But if someone made a movie called "Black Men Can't Swim!" all hell would break loose! I will agree that there are racist comments on this board, but I can't remember the last time that a white person complained about a racist comment that was against whitey. Call me Honky, Cracker, Whitey, etc all you want. It doesn't offend me, and it's usually not even funny.

By the way, I hate that Bitch Dr. Laura. I'm glad she's going off the Air.

Did you listen to her? I thought she was only doing books...didn't even know she HAD a radio show until two weeks ago.

[JohnGalt2341]

Brock , don't be an idiot . I am white and I've complained. I am also Jewish and am really troubled and sad by all the Jew hating I see here.

I can understand that you would be troubled by people hating on Jews, but have you really complained about something that someone said against the White Man?

[Sunde91]

To the keyboard crusader anti-racists, step off the cross.



Like why do you care what people say on the INTERNET You want SBR to become PC world where no one will ever risk getting their feelings hurt Besides, the capping forums are restricted to their topic, as they should be; PT is a prescribed haven for banter and general discussion.

The self-righteous act gets old, fast.

[JohnGalt2341]

Yeah, a job I had around 10 years ago required me to drive all day long. I listened to AM Talk Radio while driving almost exclusively. I would sometimes listen to Dr. Laura. It was painful on my ears and my brain. She's an evil bitch that preys on the weak.

[blanda]

Can't we all just get along?

couldn't agree more. I think this world has suffered the race card enough. Anything blacks say or do is just fine but if a white man says it than it is definitely a problem. The double standard is amazing in this country yet people are still not satisfied. Fortunately I am self employed so my employment is no problem but for others I know how it is to not get a job based on skin color(affirmitive action) It gripes my ass to see all these comie,pinko-fag, liberal white people that hearts just bleed over racism. The president is a racist, but that is ok and accepted. Blacks are just as much racist or more racist than whites, but we cry over the whites that are racist? recently, in Iowa blacks went after whitey and stabbed many at a county fair just to attacks white but it did not get headlines, but had it been whites than it would have been national news on CNN MSNBC
