It's not your place to tell another race when they should or should not be upset that people use historically insulting terms to describe that nationality.
Is it their place to threaten me with serious bodily injury? This is the second time a member of this forum has threatened me with violence. Apparently it's SOP for this website..
Of course it's not right to threaten you with violence. Though it is understandable that a person who is called a racist term by you would be angry about it. It's not understandable that you use a racist term.
Wrong. I don't know why you're pretending this. Please do some historical research on the term. You won't have to go back very far.
This brings up an interesting question. If you are not Asian, can you qualify which terms are racist to Asians?
If you called a black person a n*****, would you be surprised if they tried to beat your ass in response? Calling me a Jap is much closer to that than your stupid analogy of a British, because "Jap" has a pretty nasty history, especially during the war.
I believe gwayneco knows this but for some reason is pretending not to. Possibly trying to create some kind of social experiment where maybe he can magically remove all the negative connotation from a racist word.
Yet, black folks use that word all the time. LOL. So, words have to be prisoners to history? For a non-Muslim you are quick to be offended and threaten violence.
So you, as a white man, who's never been subjected by the majority of a society to any kind of racial alienation are going to tell other races when they can no longer consider the historical context of the language and words they are called? Maybe you really don't understand. That's a very odd tactic.
Jesus Christ! vietnameze japaneze hongkongeze tiewaneze hate each others even moar dan black and dey REALLY hate da blackz
I'm not telling them anything. I'm offering an opinion - namely that obsessing over one word is silly. Look to actual behaviors that indicate racism than to a word.
I wouldn't put ignorance beyond him. Anyway this thread has really devolved. It makes the Trayvon Martin thread look like the All Things Considered.
Oh, give us all a ****ing break. You babble your racist **** and honestly think someone won't call you out on it? All I can say is that judo's a lot more polite than I would be in response to your crap, were I of Asian heritage, instead of being a multi-generational White Texan. You, and liltexxx, and basso, and one or two others seem to believe that you can endlessly get away with racism simply because in your demented mind it's "funny" or somehow "OK." Why? Beats me, but I wouldn't count on being able to get away with it forever. And yes, that's a threat.
