Oh dear god, I feel so sorry for you. Your spectrum of things is seriously distorted. I can't believe you think someone calling someone else a "ghetto goon" is a serious situation, not only in "race relations", but in general.

I am embarrassed with things going on in this world you are taking two words said on an internet forum this seriously.
It is a learning situation rather you take it seriously or not I really don't care, but this is for those who really want to know what others think/feel about some terminology that may be offensive. For those like yourself, feel free to go to your neighborhood "ghetto" and refer to the residents as "goons" I hope that your hospital stay is pleasant

If it does not matter to you ...fine. I just like to be a spectator when you go to certain neighborhoods spouting the same crap that you do here (which I doubt you would). Since you are saying that 75 (and counting) people on this particular forum don't matter and do not have common sense. Opinions are like azzwholes and apparently you have enough for everyone

And yet it is still only two words on an internet forum. That phrase "mountains out of molehills" comes to mind.

And I hope their prison stay is pleasant once I file assault charges. But here's the thing. Do you think it is okay for a big goon to hit a woman? Because if I went into a dangerous part of town I would be prepared with some mace and a stun gun.

Hey I have seen a woman get "stomped" by a group of girls for calling them the wrong name. The way that I look at it "don't start none, wont be none". I really don't see too much of a difference if you called a police officer a discouraging word and he beats the crap out of you

It's like a multiuse deodorant for failure.
You just outed yourself as not being black.

FYI, the people that would be insulted and more than likely to beat your butt are the same people that are not worried about going to jail over an assault charge. Especially, if you are in their neighborhood calling them names

I really am not worried about getting my "butt kicked", I can take care of myself. Thanks for your concern though.

40 Pages of this sh*t? This just goes to show you, you cannot correct anyone on the internet because it will balloon into a 40 page clusterf*ck.

Example:
Poster 1: "The sky is red"
Poster 2: "Um no its blue"
Poster 3: What? It's not blue just because you say it's blue. Its red and anyone who matters and is sensible thinks so"
Btsilver: lol What?
....
40 pages later...
Poster 1: No no no, all those blue sky believers are clearly wrong because I say what is right and you can't tell me nothing"
Poster 3456: Oh my God. Do you know the difference between blue and red.
Poster 1: ....
Poster 1: I don't see why thats important to the argument.
btsilver: This thread is a good piece of evidence if an athiest wants to prove there is no God.
