I didn't imply anything, I simply asked a question. The part Kevin wrote about a "black man in office" was clearly a race based comment, I didn't know by the reply if the poster was refering to "Muslim" as a race or a religion. Thanks all for the homosexual inuendos, but I am a practicing heteralsexual and don't have immediate plans to change that status.

Is it true that liberals are open minded and peacefull ?

Mostly...except for dealing with hatemongering dipshits like Lund...and, unfortunately, you sometimes.

Jackasses sometimes forget that "tolerance" doesn't mean tolerance of idiocy, racism, or hate.

I gotta say that it took great big brass cajones to post what kevin posted.. I admire his guts.. I also know that this board is predominantly liberal in its views, and anyone who would choose to defile "The Messiah" must be prepared to reap the whirlwind, yes the fire and brimstone which only comes from the pagan idolatry formed by the Obammy faithful. Kevin kudos to you for speaking you mind, never let them take that from you. It will be truly sad when the faithful realize they are worshiping the "Golden Calf".

"Not liberal" and racist asshole are not the same thing.

Lund, apparently, happens to be both.

Fish on...

wow...supporting a guy who made a racist statement...keep those knuckles draggin!! t-o-o-l

Hey I said I admired his guts, I didn't say I supported his view on race. Race is not the issue here, it's about who is truly qualified to lead our country... and Obammy isn't.... So, mreyns stfu! F-o-o-l

Hasn't this thread taken an ugly twist. And not just on one side. I have posted this definition before, but here it is again for your amusement...............



Always makes for an interesting dilemma when verbiage gets in the way. I found Kevin's original comment racist, for sure......I likewise found the "pack attack" less than effective....a point that I think Oregonian was trying to make.

Consider if the group response had simply been something along the line of "Racist comments are not acceptable here." Is there anyone who thinks that wouldn't have been just as effective? By definition (see above) racism and group intolerance is both bigotry.

For the record, I don't like Obama...not one little bit. I don't think he has earned any sort of trust, which many seem to just blow off. But....My gut feelings may be wrong...I certainly hope so. My distrust, however, has nothing whatsoever to do with his race (which one?...he's as much white as black ). On the reality check side of the coin lies this question....Do you think that this election will be influenced by racism? I think definitely it will.

Congratulations on making the watchlist.

Do you have any examples of my thoughts or comments that earned me this designation ?

I see absolutely no reason he should not have been attacked for such blatantly racist remarks. Not a "pack attack" in my mind, simply a gut level response from those who were offended.

I have no issue with anyone not liking Barrack. I highly doubt he will be as great a president as many hope for. But to make pejorative racial remarks and then to openly hoping for his assassination says way more about the person who makes such stupid remarks than it does about those who are offended by them. A huge and openly hostile response was, IMHO the only proper response.

Will race play a part in this election? Certainly. Many blacks will vote for Obama simply based on race and many ignorant whites will do the opposite.
Both are wrong. But to openly hope for the assassination of a U.S. president is un-American and proof of a very small, very limited and fully closed mind.

I don't think Kevin got enough.... These comments have nothing to do with "guts", just hate and ignorance.
Kevin, you won't see any business from me or my friends.

Same here.

Moronic horseshit is par for the course for the darkside and part of what makes it so fun. Racist horseshit should not be tolerated. I've been reading your posts since I got on here and always thought you were an elitist dipshit. Now I know I was right. Your post was not only an embarassment to humankind but it was an emarassment to the board. Not my call but I woukd be happy not to see you around here anymore. What an assclown.

that's sums it up the best neal

Wow ... been pretty busy, so I missed the forecasting call on this storm ... sorry, even in here. And even in here, this is way over the top. As most around me know, I'm no Obama fan by any means, but this is flat out unappropraite, even in the light touch I usually keep. Good night to this one!
