    1. You invited conversation on whether or not you are a racist.

    2. You have ignored my definition of racist throughout this thread.

    I'm not even talking about whether you are a racist. Anymore. I said that if you didn't want to talk about it we could refrain from that sort of conversation and asked you what your problem with my definition of racism is. But you haven't given an answer. What is your answer?

    All that proved is the race-nazis have terrorized everyone with the label of "racist" to the point that anyone with dark skin tones can say anything they want and never be held to the same standard thet themselves hold everyone else to. That is racist in itself.

    MLK wanted everyone to be judged by their character and not the color of their skin. You judge people by their skin color (even though you don't know what skin color anyone here has). By MLK Jr.'s definition YOU are the bigoted racist here. (let's see if this breaks any rules or if they are applied equally.)

    At this point I am just waiting to see whether or not your endless ad hominem posts and lies are sanctioned.

    When did I judge anyone by their skin color? You are lying.

    So basically you can't address my definition of racism.

    No that would be an "absence of evidence" fallacy. Which is considered a lie in most courts.

    You haqve called numerous folks here 'racist' without knowing anything about them. That is the purest definition of a racist. You are lying and you are the racist.

    I'm done with your school-yard taunting.

    Now your personal attacks have been removed (thanks to the mod responsible) you want to state I have not addressed your defintion of racism?

    The only people I have called a racist are people actually being racist. You said I judge people by their skin color which is a lie.

    If you have then show me or address it now.

    Those posts are not directed at me and my specific definition of racism. I didn't duck anything. When you challenged Fugazi to define the word racist and show how you fit the definition I made a post both defining it and showing that you fit the definition. You ignored it.

    So once again, what problem do you have with my definition of racism as I defined it?

    My problem with racism as you defined it was that you spent most of your post applying it to me. If you'd like to start again with some basic civility I'd be happy to respond.

    What problem do you have with the third definition that I supplied e.g. racism = hatred or intolerance based on race?

    Even one of those quotes has been staged in order to project things that they simple don't, that is dishonest on the part of what-ever web site they were lifted from and dishonest of the poster for using them.

    The very first one on that list has been doctored by the addition of [Muslims and Arabic Immigrants in USA] when in reality the original quote is very different.

    Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.

    how laughable, you post a comment from a right-wing site as proof that FactCheck is left-wing :roflol::roflol: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Republic

    Where little gems such as the following have turned up -

    Free Republic had been criticized during the pre-moderation period for the actions of several of its members. In 1999, FReepers ran a campaign to make fake donations to the legal defense fund of Julie Hiatt Steele, who had been charged with obstruction of justice during then-President Bill Clinton's impeachment trial. Hundreds of fraudulent[20] transactions from this campaign cost Ms. Steele around $4000.[21] Some threatened to assassinate Clinton, like this from February 2001: "If he keeps on he's going to make me come up there. There is only one solution to the Klintons, two 45 rounds and a nice little spot in Marcy Park."

    Do you really have any creditability at all.

    >>>MOD EDIT: INSULT<<< A racist is a racist REGARDLESS of their skin color if they use differences as a means to discriminate against others, the problem you have is that by far the majority on this forum are white.

    I can repeat myself for about the hundredth time. That isn't the only way the word is applied in the real world.

    and again I will repeat myself for about the hundredth time, the way in which you comment is a perfect fit for the definition of racism, if you think not then I suggest you contact all the dictionaries and tell them they are wrong, but until that definition changes (if it ever does) you are in denial of the facts.

    Wouldn't you like to know . .though there is no reason to do so, the comments left on these pages are ample evidence.

    Irrelevant ad hominem garbage reported. Check the forum rules and stick to the topic.

    And yes the dictionaries are wrong because they contradict both each other and modern usage of the word "racist", which is applied to people who suggest biological behavior differences or even who talk about race. It would be great if you could address this rather than irrelevantly and ironically calling me a "racist" in every post.

    Remeber how you ducked out of analysing the dictionary defintions and started chanting "you're a racist"?

    Pathetic.
