bush_cheney2004 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 It's ok if it's calling out people for what they are and when they are attacking vulnerable and minority groups. I don't understand why Jaycee was singled out. Nope...it is a violation of forum rules. No exceptions for any groups. Economics trumps Virtue.
WestCoastRunner Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Nope...it is a violation of forum rules. No exceptions for any groups. Oh for crying out loud. They cut her off at the knees while she was defending vulnerable groups. Seriously,did she really offend anyone for calling them out for their racist beliefs. It is simply disturbing to me that they gave her a suspension. Edited June 20, 2015 by WestCoastRunner I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass. - Maya Angelou
Smallc Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 It's ok if it's calling out people for what they are and when they are attacking vulnerable and minority groups. If people were doing that she and you might have a point. I don't understand why Jaycee was singled out. Jaycee is one of the most knowledgeable people here on the most vulnerable minority groups and for her to be suspended is simply ridiculous. It is a bad reflection on this forum in my opinion. In my opinion her 'knowledge' was skewed to what she wanted us to see. I know that, having lived here and all.
Smallc Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 Oh for crying out loud. They cut her off at the knees while she was defending vulnerable groups. From where I'm sitting, she was attacking people trying to engage in a conversation.

Seriously, she did really offend anyone for calling them out for their racist beliefs. Then one should do so within forum rules. No need to attack other members. Economics trumps Virtue.

The left is constantly attacking white straight males. Edited June 20, 2015 by Canada_First
Smallc Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 Seriously,did she really offend anyone for calling them out for their racist beliefs. Since I'm not a racist, yes, yes she did. I talk to my fiancee about me being called racist on here. She thinks it's funny.

Canada_First Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 She was calling out racists as she should. Being critical of any group doesnt mean it's racist.
bush_cheney2004 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 She was calling out racists as she should. Then she should find another forum that permits personal attacks. No exceptions..... Economics trumps Virtue.
Smallc Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 You go on and on about your fiancee. We get it. I love her and she loves me. I don't care what 'race' she is. The poster in question was calling people out using a definition of racism that no one would accept...except you apparently.
WestCoastRunner Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Then she should find another forum that permits personal attacks. No exceptions..... Calling someone a racist is not an attack. It's reality. Why such an abhorrence for calling people for who they are?

Smallc Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 Calling someone a racist is not an attack. It's reality. That's a subjective term.
WestCoastRunner Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 Perhaps we need a new definition of racist for just this forum. I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass. - Maya Angelou
WestCoastRunner Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 That's a subjective term. If it's subjective, how can they suspend her? I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass. - Maya Angelou
WestCoastRunner Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Jaycee, including me and others are tired of posters hiding behind bs, when clearly they are racist. And we are calling it like it is. And if we get suspended, then ok, that's the way it is. Edited June 20, 2015 by WestCoastRunner I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels.
