At the bar the other night you heard my brother say “I’m not a racist” and made a big fucking scene out of it. You instantly thought that our table was exchanging racist jokes around, but why the fuck would we be doing that? You heard one phrase of our conversation and assumed terrible things. When you started asking the bar tender for fried chicken and watermelon you were the only one making a racist joke and you loved how you got everyone’s attention and how they laughed at your pathetic, self-depraving joke, didn’t you? Shame. I just fuckin’ love how small you made us feel. —buttofajoke

OP: Didn’t you know that only majorities can be racist? Minorities are never “racist” they’re just “misunderstood”.
I tell people I accept visa and mastercard, but NOT the race card.
How true that statement is NW. How true indeed!
sounds like irvine carvery to me.
Well? Did he get the fried-chicken and watermelon shooter?
doesn’t matter what colour our skin is, we’re all the same RACE, the human race. for chrissakes, tear us all open and we’re the exact same on the inside, just have different colour wrapping paper.
Well Mei, tell that to the Africville crowd who would be quite happy if we whites disappeared from the earth. Some of those fanatics are way more racist than any white person I’ve encountered.
That is so true. We are all the same race. We all originated in Africa. Ignorance breeds racism. I’m caucasian with black, blue, purple, yellow, orange, green skin. Some people take offense at that. That is their problem not mine. I’m against asshats no matter what colour of skin they are in.
Not to highjack the thread but I was going to (if it wasn’t too sensitive) bitch about how in the past month (?longer) there was only 1 day when there wasn’t something negative connected to North P on Ark the…’s Front Web Page. Sure there’s a lot of violence but is all of it newsworthy? I’m incapable of pulling the race card and don’t think crime should be ignored but it certainly seems like they intentionally don’t miss a beat when it comes to NP…
People just deny they are racist on the outside, but on the inside they are.
Im an educated racist
I can’t stand strangers that get in your business and preach to you in public. Sounds like a classic attention whore, just ignore them. It’s not about you anyway, it’s all about them.
Never Mind. Amen!
