    Agree with all that is said here. However, my concern was not in his original statement of describing the perp as black. It was later on when he aligned himself with David Duke a former member of the Ku Klux Klan and a continued segregation supporter. Now, for someone who has "grown up with blacks his whole life", who is supporting Obama, and who has given himself the screen name of such an influential black man, I wouldn't expect them to run for the white hoodie when the going gets tough. Again, I'm not saying that the op is a racist, nor is it ok that all these people on here have bashed him for using the word black to describe this guy, but the David Duke comment is still odd to me.


    i had no idea who David Duke was/is... i just presumed he was a manufacturer of muffins or something ;)

    David Duke Muffins... you Klan't beat them... and we dont sell Dark Chocolate ones
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I'm surprised with your wit, Mookie that you didn't get that one. I understood it as 'That's how upset I am right now! - 'That i'll put myself on the line and compare myself to someone everyone hates'. I guess it is a bit odd and thoughtless but people shouldn't read too much into what people say sometimes. imo

    If Dunk said it I would get the wit. But the op said it and said he is not sure if he should feel this way. Not the best punch line if you ask me. :)

    That is how I took his David Duke comment too.

    Just one more thing.
    Iwas just thinking about how you said that I have spoken other times about solving my problems with violence. Its true, I have and I was thinking whether or not that makes me a bad person? I think I am a good person. I take pride in being a very good husband and a very loving, gentle father. But, if I get backed into a corner I explode like a caged animal. This is just who I am. And I only get this way if someone or something is a threat. Not to some innocent person. And maybe some might concider me a recist b/c I have issues with a lot of races in my country, including my own. But I do not hate someone just b/c of their skin color. I have issues with the individual. If they are black then so be it. If they are white, so be it.

    I am rambling here I know but until someone has walked in my shoes and delt with the shit I delt with in the past, they will never understand me.
    Whoa, you missed the point of me saying that. I made no comment on the rights and wrongs of reacting violently to certain situations, I just pointed out that telling a guy named Malcolm X to change his name because he got robbed by a black man is hypocritical. I'm assuming you disliked Malcolm X because you view him as a violent racist? He wasn't a racist but that's easy to understand why people would think that. He's probably think the same of you, given things you have said. I'm sure you're not a violent racist either. All I was saying is, the hypocrisy makes certain arguments posted here completely redundant.

    It's a fact of life that racial attacks happen and all political correctness does is mask the problem. I'm sorry I'm just repeating others, I'm just AMAZED sometimes at how naive some people can be! I just think political correctness is another form of brainwashing. :mad:

    Of course racial attacks happen, but this wasn't a racial attack as far as we know. That's the whole point. It was property victimization, that's it. There's nothing more to it. Yea, when you give the suspect's description to the police, you say "black male in his 20's, 6ft tall, etc etc." That's completely different from posting about it on a message board and indicating that there's race involved, and you support Obama but run your mouth like David Duke when this stuff happens. THAT's the thing that's a problem, and it's got nothing to do with political correctness. Anyone who starts thinking critically about this stuff usually sees that.

    I don't think anyone was reading anything into what he said.
    He said 'but when this shit happens, my mouth turns into David Duke'.
    Pretty cut and dried.
    He turns into a hate spewing person like he did on here one night. Calling some girl all kinds of really, really nasty things. It was not pretty.
    So, no, I don't find any humor in it either.

    He seems like a good person, just has been dealt a shitty hand and has anger issues.
    I have chatted with him in the past and he seems like a nice guy. But this happens to alot of people...they just lose their cool. It is understandable, but not always acceptable. He even admitted his mouth turned into David Duke..I think maybe he is trying to come to terms with why he may be feeling these things and thinking these thoughts.

    :D:D:D That's what we need now in this thread. some humour. It has become pretty angry in places.

    EDIT, the comment I made after this is factually incorrect :)

    I agree with you. for once ;)

    I would also like to extend handshakes to Helen and MCKB, who I generally get on with in the pit very well. Nothing like a good argument :)
