Title: Why is it that people cannot freely talk about race?
Post by: JamesDouglas on December 15, 2010, 04:57:40 AM
I ask a question about race and music and am called racist. Can we not freely talk about our opinions and share our views? Open up Dialogue shift our way of thinking create change by truly understanding one another without getting defensive and shutting down?

Sensitive topic you're touching on there.  As a white South African, one would think this is a problem, but I believe that I have had the most constructive discussions with non-white colleagues and friends.  The key is that it is not discussed in a "closed circle" of individuals of the same coulour  - then it DOES become a problem i.e. us and them discussion.  Sensitive - yes, no-go area - I don't think so.  That in itself is racist.

In my humble opinion, there are forums for this - but I would rather discuss scoots and rides on this forum!!

Who thinks in terms of "race" (biol.), is a racist. ;)

Honestly: I would prefer culture/education/...
There are biological differences, yes. And some diff. (like the form of lips) can even make some sounds more or less difficult.
But the only significant effective biological difference is the gender.

(My own family is a mix of 3 continents.)

It's spam.  I would kill the account.  As someone who also owns forum I see a lot of this.  The point of the post was to get the link in his signature.  I wouldn't click the link by the way - could be malicious.

OOOPPPSSSS! How do I unclick?

Not... J. is right. The link is a harvester of IP addresses. Every view of the link records Your IP, and that list is sold to advertisers. In this case I would guess scooter parts/sales. Could be any sort of sales tho. Some can be malicious implanting key board hooks or beacons. Most anti virus software cannot pick these up.

Skadamo, you would thing if ole James had half a brain he would have put this in "General Discussion" or maybe he is one of those, "Please HELPPP! Urgent help needed," and then disappear after everyone tries to help. Go get 'em, Skadamo! I wanna see pieces fluttering back to earth!
