Why? Because it's a black child and black men (as far as I can tell) who are running? Truth is, I just laughed my head off not thinking about the colour of the subjects... maybe you're the racist?

oh so you want to take low shots at me and falsely accuse me of racism. I know you don't like me, Mr "qualified". Truth told is you wouldn't know of the struggles black people go through in America and in America it is considered offensive.
That's like me posting a picture of a white person yelling white power... that's a stereotype and very offensive. I knew you'd show up eventually but I didnt expect you to be the first. Just keep your childish antics and accusations to yourself. |

LMAO i found Revenge's remarks to be funnier than the picture. Sorry Revenge, but I didn't find anywhere in prestige's post where he stated that he did not like you, nor did he accuse you of racism. He asked if maybe you are a racist. It was a question, VERY different from an accusation. Learn to read.
Next up, I'd like to mention how people like you are a real pain in a community's ass. Why? Because you are the type of person to look at a photo of 10 black bears, and call it racism, because there are no brown bears or polar bears in the picture.
Absolutely ridiculous. Get your head out of your ass Revenge. Time to grow up, and learn some respect.
Little do you know of this man you accuse of using childish antics and "taking low shots at you," and who you label "Mr. qualified." prestige doesn't take shots at people. He keeps order as it should be, and generously grants your ass the right to play and chat on that UI every day, as well as post on these forums. After that performance, I'm not sure if that will carry on much longer for ya
Learn your place.
EDIT::

Okay now let's try and search for the brains you're lacking. You knew prestige would respond to your remark eventually, but not as the first one, meaning, you knew that your comment was going to cause controversy among multiple users? and you knew that our head admin was going to write something up with the intention of displaying his opinion against yours? You must know it all you psychic you! Exactly the point. So Why even touch the keyboard and waste our time Revenge?
and to get back on topic, nice pic TPP lol |

My opinion with out any form of racism or stereotypes. If u call me one i dont care what you think because you dont know me:
This picture is LMAO irl. Im not a racist. Racism is hate against someone who is a different race that u. I dont base my hate on the color or where they came from I base my hate on their integrity and personality.
If anything the photo is a form of bigotry. They way i look at bigotry is this: i laugh at the stereotypes knowing that they arent correct for all of that one demographic. I laugh at chicken and watermellon because our society poses it as comedy. An example of this is the black comics on comedy central. They make racist/bigot jokes about their own culture/race/live style and they all laugh about it but when someone that isnt like them do the same they are automatically called a racist.
Its also the same when black people call each other the N word. They say it freely but its totally taboo for white people to say it in the presence of black people. And i use the terms black people as a generalization for blacks who arent american, European. African Americans are African born people who have their US citizenship. Yes they may be African decent but there are also white people born in Africa. So technically they can also be called African Americans. The term African American segregates Blacks and whites even though equality is what Dr. King was fighting for. If u are born in America u are an American. Color is just a difference of heritage that one should be proud of.
<real serious>I wonder if Black Americans know their lineage? Not as in 'slave' but as in their families and relatives that are in Africa? Do they celebrate Kwanzaa or Christmas?</ real serious>
And, how is this picture a form of white supremacy??? Revenge ur just looking for something to be pissed off at. The picture shows now form of hate toward blacks at all. The meaning is just stereotypical not reality for ALL blacks.
I bet u think the cartoon "The Boondocks" is a form of racism. That show is created by a black man and his vision basically shows the reality of our society's so called "misconceptions" of stereotypes of Black Americans. Its a good show and its funny.
I hope my opinion doesnt get me in trouble |

I don't like you? Hell, I don't even know who you are. I do think you have completely missed my meaning, though...
To those who take offence to this image, you have my deepest and most heartfelt sympathies. Not because you are offended, but because you are so shell shocked by the environment you live in that this picture conjures feelings of fear and sympathy for the subjects because you assume they are in danger.
Let me ask you bluntly, if your first reaction to seeing a group of black men running in front of a church is concern that they are being victimized, is that initial reaction not indeed racist? Not all prejudice is intentional or malicious. Prejudice is when we react based on some preconception or stereotype.
This image is meant to be funny because it plays on a different stereotype: that all men inherently fear honouring their paternal responsibilities. Is that offencive? Maybe. I still find it funny.

HOLY SHIT, HERE I AM POSTING A PICTURE THAT I PERSONALLY THOUGHT WAS FUNNY AND NOT OFFENSIVE RACIST (IM NOT RACIST, I LIKE FUNNY SHIT LIKE THE MOVIE "DON'T BE A MENACE TO SOUTH CENTRAL WHILE DRINKING YOUR JUICE IN DA HOOD" - WHICH WAS MADE BY THE WAYAN BROS. AND HAD A SCENE SIMILAR TO THE PIC I POSTED. SO I GUESS IF BLACK PEOPLE POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS IT MAY BE OK, BUT BECAUSE I AM WHITE, IT MAKES ME A RACIST AUTOMATICALLY.
ALL THESE COMMENTS ARE HILLARIOUS. I POSTED AN INNOCENT PICTURE AND CHECK UP ON THE THREAD AFTER WORK TO FIND OUT ITS A FUCKING SALLY JESSE RAPHAEL DEBATE. GET REAL. THIS SHIT WON'T MAKE A DENT IN YOUR LIFESTYLES, IF YOU WANNA DO GOOD FOR YOU COMMUNITY DONATE A DOLLAR OR SOMETHING TO THE SALVATION ARMY, DON'T GO SPOUTING BULLSHIT.
-PEACE |

The "Boondocks is a hilarious show. One of my favorite quotes:
Grandad: "We don't use the N-Word in this house boys"
Huey: "Gandad you said the N-word 47 times yesterday"
Lmao. Priceless. The picture is pretty funny though. The commentary on here is great too. If you don't like it, get a sense of humor. Freedom of speech is under attack in this country because people can't take a joke and people have to be too politically correct. Again, can't take a joke, don't watch it and don't comment on it. |
