You had a guy literally state that "black people are trash" and yet still have people consider him to be a "net positive poster". Then when you call him on it you are being a "victim". That is the get out of jail free card for all racists and those that apologize for it. Meanwhile these same people in their hypocrisy just last week railed about how egregious and trifling the Black Israelites were for spewing the shit that they spew. How can you consider one reprehensible and egregious and not the other?

For those that like to claim open mindedness and message board "toughness" (an oxymoron) how would they feel if there were guys posting on here that posted similar shit to what people like the "Israelites" and the NOI state? Would they be as "open minded" on that shit as they are about clowns like America and Toxic? They can't even handle when you accurately call racists and bigots out for being racists and bigots. If there were blacks that came on here posting bigoted shit daily there is no doubt that some of you would shit the bed and request that they be banned. Yet you sit on the sidelines accept the shit and then claim that the people who have a problem with it are overreacting "race hustling", "race baiting", or playing the "victim", card.

Back around 2007-08 there was a lot of political talk around here. Most of it was conservative tinged and started by the the daily political talking points threads that BD would post. Occasionally, a debate over the merits of those issues or Rasmussen/Fox/other polls would stretch over 4-5 pages, but it was generally reasonable because before that (board)friendships had been developed and most here recognized the overarching similarities in almost all of us. Even trolling was more often than not good-natured. People here generally rooted for each other and their families, except maybe Jimmy Reardon . But that took a decided turn in mid 2016 imo.

And here we are. I come here to generally laugh, but the jokes and pointed racial comments exploded around that time which makes this place often very dull. And it's revealed the worst of this city/area is still not that far off from that of decades ago imo.

My first statment is not accurate

I think the entire board should take a road trip to Denver and get high as fuck.

Thank you for clarifying, Seacrest.

Ill amend my statement to just say that I myself underestimated the stuff that would pop up. That is certainly accurate. Im guessing there are others (peeps kinda said it) but if you say definitely not, ok.

I didnt think people were itching to say f@ggot, retard, or dying to make black people are criminals or jews must be eraditcated "jokes"

Hope Nas at least got his 40 acres and a mule .

One of the two people you are referencing is gone. The other was once gone as well.

Is there anyone else you are referring to other than Toxic and America?

Textbook example of why the Wisemen want to drop a nuke on this place.

You literally offered people money for my address. Shut the fuck up and sit down junior.

So you criticize the board for being a launching pad for insults and "bitch fests," respond to mild, impersonal criticism from me with "shove a carrot up your ass," and then act like your position still makes sense?

Tell me this: if two or more posters engage in the most awful and tedious back and forth arguments for 45 pages with no end in sight, how is that the moderators' fault? If people deviate from guidance to stop posting racist memes or whatever but continue to do so, how is that the moderators' fault? You mentioned the stolen valor thread and how you thought it was stupid or whatever. Were you compelled by the moderators to click through that thread? What prevents you from creating threads you want to create, or sparking discussion you want to talk about? Is your failure to do that on the moderators as well? That's why your posts were incoherent.

This wasn't a complaint. I've maintained you guys do a great job. I was just responding to Nas saying we wanted to police ourselves and then weren't happy with that.

There are/were a few other posters who dabble in that stuff. You posted this week about deleting racist posts by a poster who is Not America or Toxic

I dont want anyone gone though.


Its a still a tiny percentage of what is posted here. As Leash pointed out I probably made it sound worse than I meant.

Typical week for the Trump administration.

I'm asking because I'm open to constructive criticism here.

Overtly racist shit was allowed by bigfan. It has not been allowed by us.

Without naming names, when we took over the place, the previous posters who dabbled in racist nonsense were made an offer to continue that 1st amendment stuff with a certain caveat. Elmhurst Steve, and chas for the most part, have accepted that offer.

The same agreement was offered to America and Toxic. Any of them is free to share what was offered by PM if they so choose.

Provided that we are allowed to post their responses.

Sad to hear Nas has to step back. The board should be ashamed. And if FF and DS are indeed gone, then this is a big indictment of this place. I have met all three, and they bring unique perspectives to the board. At least Nas is still posting. Oh well.
