    Default So Why The Double Standard?

    This should be interesting. Get into it.

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/vid...t_walters.html

    I think this is "conditioning". Blacks are conditioned to the word being okay if used by blacks, but react differently when a white person uses the word. Our society has made the word taboo, yet we excuse it when a black person uses it. I believe this is wrong. Either anyone can say it or no one can. Otherwise, what we have is just more racism.

    double standard? it's the most commonly used tactic by racist leftists and blacks.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    It's not racism because the objects of the word, share a context and a history that you could never share. It makes them equals...whereas whites used the word to demean and to depreciate human beings. Are you serious? You think a black saying the word and a white saying the word is the same thing? Explain how that could be. And to top it off, you think it's racist for you to be forbidden to use the word. Explain a context in which using the word would be respectful, appropriate, or innocuous being used by a white person.
    More white privilege ("I can say, do, think anything, because I'm white), on your part. I'm here to short-circuit that shit.

    Oh, are you throwing a hissy fit, as well, because you demand to use the word? Such irony. "Racist leftists and blacks"....about a word which singularly defines a racist. LOL

    amusingly, i'm not surprised you dodged the entire point of the double standard as it applies to you.

    Really? Can't see why...I don't use racial pejoratives, as a rule.

    as pointed out in the OP, apparently you operate under different rules....
    Isaiah 6:5
    “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”

    Excuse me? A "tea bagger" is the pejorative of a member of The Tea Party. Calling someone "racist", that exhibits racist behavior and rhetoric, isn't, in and of itself, "racist".
    Explain the "different rules". If you're able. You have a long way to go before you're smarter than I.

    I've noticed that Webbways' overt racism seemingly isn't worthy of any rightwing rebuke.

    Tacit agreement?

    hello? you're a stupid fucking clueless racist. this entire board fucking knows it. the fact that half the idiot leftists on this board support you also reveals their stupidity. you live in a fantasy world that leads you to believe it's ok for YOU to use racially tinged names against those you don't like, yet freely accuse others of racism with no evidence whatsoever.

    The only racist perjorative I see in this thread is the one used by Webby.

    Is he a leftist?

    Uh, reality check. Everyone knows, and it's conventional wisdom that conservatives aren't "the sharpest knives in the drawer". Intellectual and Conservative/Republican don't mix.
    You and others here keep repeating the same mantra.."Poet is a racist, poet is a racist", but no one...not a single forum member, has been able to elaborate or explain how I'm a racist. A racist doesn't pick and choose which individuals of a group he or she is not going to be racist against. I have white friends and acquaintances, which clearly means, I don't have a problem with white people. Never have. I have problems with racists, bigots, fake Christians, and hypocrites................of any color. My black friends don't go around hating on whites. My Asian friends don't go around hating on Hispanics. My white friends don't go around hating on gays. I reject intolerance and bigotry. So, who, pray tell, for the zillioneth time, am I racist against?

    And lefties, did you catch that? SmarterThanNobody just called you out, as idiots, coddling me. The idiot has a militia emblem as an avatar, which aligns him to The Tea Party, making him "a bagger"...and he has the audacity to call me a racist. Bitch, you don't want to be called a duck, quit waddling, quacking and rustling feathers.
