JSP1488, as it seems important to you my skin tones are somewhat pale and I'm rather proud of many of the achievements of my racial group.

I think that some racism and sexism are ignored when they should be treated as racism or sexism. Assuming that they are OK because the person exhibiting those traits feels oppressed ignores the fact that the person they mistreat may not be their oppressor.

Also for the record I've recommended one of your recent posts for deletion. Just as I'm proud of many of the achievements of my racial group I'm shamed by other aspects of it. Your post makes the list.

If an individuals actions and choices can be regarded as treason against their race then your promotion of racial violence makes the list.

You could learn a great deal from CJ Morgan about being a decent human being. He puts great effort into trying to understand other viewpoints and present his case in an clear and polite manner.

I've disagreed with Rainer from time to time but found his insights very useful to help me better understand some issues. He has despite those disagreements dealt with me with courtesy and respect. His contributions to these forums are very valuable. Again someone you could learn a lot from but I doubt that you will make the effort.

spendocrat, sorry about that. Sometimes I'd like to see some of those posts kept up so others can see just how low it gets but I'd hate to see the site being portrayed in the media based on stuff like that being left around.

For others who suspect spendocrat of babbling his post was a witty response to an extremely ugly post (trust me on this).

Heh, thanks R0bert, I appreciate the defence of my posts, but I wouldnt rule out babbbling entirely. Sometimes I write with the pure intention of entertaining myself, and myself alone....

Thanks R0bert - I also recognise in you someone who attempts to address difficult issues reasonably in this forum. I don't always agree 100% with you, but I've never seen you express yourself here other than politely and considerately.

Unsurprisingly, I agree with you on this issue. It seems to me that certain posters here are simply utilising this forum as an opportunity to express hateful ideas that would quite rightly be unacceptable in actual civilised company.

Cheers mate - keep it up :)
