I'm glad you asked. Well it's simple actually. Let's say that you and your friends are at the bar and a buddy turns to you and calls you a fag for some reason. You imediately call him a motherfucking pussy,and you both laugh and continue drinking. Now let's say that some other guy bumps into you at the bar and you say watch it and he responds,"Fuck you faggot". Will you just laugh and buy him another beer? Probably not. Offense is in the way the words spoken are interpeted and not necessarily in their exact meaning or even in the way they are intended. Another example,you're complaining to your buddy about your wife,gf,mom,sister,etc and you use the word "bitch" or "whore" to describe her. Does that now give everyone in the world the right to refer to her in such a way? Personally,I don't care how you refer to any other person. You can call someone else whatever you want. I do have some interest in what you say to me tho' but obviously when an insult is uttered I take into account the context of the situation to gage my response.

BTW,overseers and owners used the word "nigger" to describe slaves and to insinuate that they were lazy and niggardly. Apparently blacks still remember that and don't appreciate whites,especially unfamiliar ones,using it to describe them. Besides typically,we use the term "nigga" as oposed to "nigger",basically we took something hateful and made a joke out of it. Heck there was a time when someone would kill you for calling them a "punk"= fag or a motherfucker as in you have sex with your mother. Perception=reality.

Here's one of my favorite stories to illustrate this point. I'm at the bar and see this chick. She's cute so I talk to her for a few minutes(like 15 or so). I feed her line about having to let my dog out and ask if she'd like to come with. She agrees. We get in my truck and she is literally sucking my cock within 5-10 minutes. So I pull over so I can enjoy it. She's working on it like she's suffocating and my balls are full of oxygen when I slip up and say, "yeah whore suck that cock!". She immediately stops what's she is doing and gets fucking mad as hell! I calm her down and she decides she wants to go home. So I take her. We get to about a block away and she has me stop because her BOYFRIEND has her kid and she doesn't want him to see her get out of a strange vehicle!!!! True story!!!

There was another thread where a bunch of you were slamming on Jason Britten(sp) but I've never seen anyone slam on Todd Corbet(sp),the Star Boys,etc. Why is that? It's the same reason alot of guys unreasonably hate the FUBU brand. Whatever! You probably don't even realize it yourself! That's the beauty of being a halfbreed/stealth nigga! I get to hear white people say shit they'd NEVER say if they knew a "black" guy was around!!! Man,I can't hardly wait until Obama becomes president! It's the first step in the halfbreed plan for WORLD DOMINATION!!! First America then he world!!! HAHAHAHAHA! BTW for you or anyone else here,there's an option in the user cp that allows you to block any members posts,right?

Please don't quote my post and then make generalized comments about "you" when I have never made any of the comments you referenced. I simply stated that Icon gear was too flashy for my tastes. Somehow, that turned into you raving on about your racial heritage and racism in general. You should post up shit about Icon gear or start a "Tigger's race thread" (which would be pretty interesting, by the way).

As far as blocking your posts, why do that? Censorship in any form sucks. I'll be the first to admit that most of your posts are entertaining to say the least, I just feel like you need to step back and take a deep breath every now and then. The "Man" is NOT out to get you and your black brethren, and neither is anyone else on this forum. You are the one who brings up race in about 25% of your posts. In my mind we are all brothers from a different mother.

Thread Hijack for a second. I'll get to the Drama shor.

Ebbs. I just got some Teknic Chicane leather pants and they are freaking awesome. They fit my big ass great. I tried on some Dainese and they are obviously designed for skinny Italian butt. Not fat American ass like mine. Plus my legs are fairly stout from moving pool tables all day. I got them from Newenough for $150 with shipping. Here is a link for ya...

Okay. Back to the Drama....
George Bush hates Black People. Rant on now.
