And its because of that respect that I simply have to reply to the comments you have just made............now I will swear, I will even insult you a little...........this is because I am an emotional being, one who is extremely upset, disapointed and frustrated by your continuing comments like this.
The below reply is not because I am a white sheet wearing, nazi tatooed, woman beating, gay beating white heterosexual male...............ok?

I guess being a racial minority I can see wher some things really hurt. I guess if you not a minority of any group you might think these are too PC. But try walking in the shoes of a black, woman , gay, etc and see how ift feels to be dumped on or have people like you feel dumped on.
Wow............so only people who ARE a minority could possibly understand what if feels like? regardless of whether people who are NOT in a "minority" have experienced racism, sexism and homophobia (because funnily enough Reg, white people are discriminated against racially and sexually too you know)
You and I have had many discussion regarding this type of thing and I am very disapointed that you feel the need to state things like this............insulted actually, because you didnt name names, so you are basically including me in that.
Me personally, I have spent my entire life FIGHTING racism...........mainly being the only white person I knew to have the views I do.
As a young man, I would regularly have mass brawls with the local "NF" gang, NF being the National Front who are/were a branch of off the Nazi party (look it up)...........these would either be organised or a retaliation after one of my friends would have been racially assualted...........I was nicknamed "The Secret Weapon" because I was the ONLY white person fighting against these f*ckers.
On the flip side of that.........because of my views as a child/young man, and the result of that being that I grew up with mostly all black and asian friends...........I was subject to ALOT of racism from them, simply because I was white, even the people that knew me and knew how I felt about such things, if getting pissed off would often call me "white c*nt" this or "honky f*ck" that...............so dont even dare try to insuate that white people cannot understand racism and discrimination.
Moreover, even if I hadnt been subject to racism...........it is the worst insult you could ever levy to a HUMAN like me, to say that I dont understand that kind of thing is essentially the same as saying that I dont care and even that I contribute to it.
Also, how did you react to my "handling" of the sfsfsfgiants race issue?............think about that, and think about how this entire board united in their distain and hatred for him and racist views he expressed.

Wow again..............for starters, what total bull sh*t.
Dont try and mis-represent this issue. You were not defending Pietrus because people were calling him dumb, you were attacking those that called him dumb and labelling them as racists for doing so...............because of course, if anyone dare call a black person dumb, its because of their skin colour and nothing else right?
And again, people only called you dumb because you turned comments like "Damn Pietrus is dumb" into a full on race war............which is/was very dumb.
The Coooach wrote:Look, this place is not the local bar where everybody is the same. We should be somewhat PC correct to make evryone feel welcome. I guess it's hard to see unless you are one of the minority groups I mentioned. Too bad, because we are Warrior fans too.
My god...............so its hard to be PC and welcoming unless your from a minority!?.............."because WE are Warrior fans too"............are you kidding Reg? please say that you are with that sentance.
Pathetic..............and quite frankly, this board isnt like that, in any way..............I am HYPER sensitive to race issues, both sides of them and the only times I have ever been involved/seen them is once with you, the Migya situations and the Sf situation.............thats it..............so where is all this "white board" stuff you are referring to???
The Coooach wrote:Words like ******, bitches, fags, etc. should never be tolerated. Even calling people dumb and stupid is offensive enough. Why can't we just disagree without saying the posters is dumb by saying that?
I agree with that............and the words you mentioned (apart from bitches perhaps) are not tolerated, and never have or will be.
The Coooach wrote:When I first strated here I thought is was a friendly site that wanted fan participation. I found it to be a boys club that only wanted people that fit a certain mode. I became very disapoointed and i don't post as regular as I use to. I am actually going to agree with 32 on one point: I think the moderators should be more forceful to ensure that everyone feel welcome here or else you are just going to have young, white, heterosexual males as part of this forum. People like me (black and proud) and other minorities are going to stay away. Maybe there is a reason why Capt. Jack is the only woman in the forum.
For the 1784th and last time...............NOT EVERYONE HERE IS WHITE!!! YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY BLACK PERSON HERE!!!
F*cks sake..............again, are you kidding? if you want me to list the names associated with your so called minorities, I will gladly do so as you STILL obviously feel like you are the one person here who can be the martyr for all minorities.
Overall...............THIS is the exactly the kind of thing that causes arguments here = assumption and lack of understanding and knowledge of the situation you are talking about.
Dont know why I replied to this.............as you are you Reg and you will keep the views you have........plus, the best case scenario for this post is that it starts an argument...............but I just have too, because you are so way off, and so way off about very insulting and personal things too.
