I have a racial question. - BIRD33 - 10-30-2008

As the only black here I will give the final verdict.

1.Once you have any black in you you are black which means flumper has been an african american since college.If you have to deal with the stereotypes because people are to lazy to ask if you are a 100% black you are entitled to call yourself black.

2.Flumper is a racist coward.I know he's trying to be funny by saying one of those and it is slightly but he'd never have the balls to say that to anyones face.He's a keyboard tough guy.I know me calling anyone that is ironic.

Why does this have to be racist? I'm asking a serious question. It doesn't have to be about balkcs. It could be about mexicans just as easy. If a form asks for your race, and you are half balck and half mexican, do you check the box for balkc or mexican?

When you call people "you know whats" thats racist.You know it and I know it.I don't care really buy dont try to bullshit a bullshitter.Thanks for not disagreeing that you are a coward.


You check which ever box you want.You are both.A half italian and half irish guy has to choose between the two if he has to fill a form out.Its no different.Why you are obsessed with this is weird.Let me guess, you don't like that Obama is playing both sides of fence with being black and white?How dare the gentleman who was subjected to racism and rose up from nothing to be president do that.You whites are always getting screwed.

That's so obviously what he is doing, but I can see any valid argument growing from it.

Its his right to do so.Its like making you choose if you want to be identified as a mother or a canadian.

No, it's not. They are mutually exclusive. Being black, white or half isn't.

If you are half black and half white (as crude as those terms are), the only way you can avoid chosing one or the other of the options, is if they had "mulatto" on the form.

Where the polish jews able to make that distinction during the holocaust?If you get treated like one group you can claim to be in that group.

I was going to put its like you choosing between being called a slut and a mother and thought better of it but now regret it.I'm getting soft.

in the us they cannot make you check a box about your race, it is optional, by law

and need i say it: flump is a stupit racist, that's why he pulls this shite
the sad thing is, he does not consider himself to have a problem with this
why, shit, his wife has a queer tennis teacher and he hires the damn beaners to work for him
how dare you call him a piece of shit southern bigot

This has nothing to do with Obama. I was just honestly curious about how mixed race people fill out forms that ask you what race you are in. But since you mention him, I wonder if Obama has ever checked a race box on some government form. Maybe a census form or even his drivers license. I wonder if his driver's license has Balck or White on it. Or Tiger Woods, I wonder what he has on his driver's license.

"You know what" is to long for a drivers license.

Those aren't mutually exclusive either. I can't deny that I am a mother, but I may or may not be a slut. So, I'd pick mother.

If you are "half white" or "half black", you can be either. It's not about how you were treated.

I think shared experiences do make people feel like part of a group they wouldnt normally be considered apart of.

That's not much of a choice.


Check the box that will give you the most free shit.
