We are accused all the time of being racist and we can't wait for a break in the conversation to show we're not ... stumbling sometimes all over ourselves because of their outlandish accusations and our attempts to show how wrong they are ...
If they have no ammo .. they can't shoot.
Actions speak louder than words and in the world I grew up, not giving someone a break was the best possible way to show respect.
I always say that I am no more racist than Al Sharpton.
Instead say "name calling isn't a rational argument, you should have outgrown that in grade school" and leave it at that.
I’m convinced they wanted Z on the stand so they could ask him, “have you ever used the ‘N’ word sir?”
It’s the killer question of the 21st century.
Ask Ms. Deen.
(Islamists think so...)
>>So I’ve decided that the next time I’m accused of being a racist .. or of being racist .. I’ll proudly say, “Yup, you’re right” .. and go on about my business.
I started doing that in 2009. One guy asked me “doesn’t that bother you to admit that?” I asked him if it bothers him when his dog catches him picking his nose. That’s a good conversation ender.
I sometimes try to warn my black brothers and sisters (aren’t all human beings brothers in a way?) that when they say they’re a minority they are a minority; i.e., lesser in numbers than the majority. I try to tell them that white guilt won’t last forever.
Negro people do not hold human life with the same high regard as white people. This is conclusively evidenced by their propensity to kill. Telling the truth is NOT racist, just racial. We have PC because we and our leaders have allowed it. We all need to stop PC and let them try to castigate scores of millions.
Given a confrontational scenereo, when I agree with the accusation, there's nothing left to yell about.
Maybe that's when the shooting begins ... I don't know ... but as long as we continue the "no I ain't ... yes you are ... no, I ain't .. " rerartee' .. we go nowhere.
>>By admitting to the accusation you lower your moral standing. You aren’t taking their ammo away, you are taking a bullet.
See post #10
My guess is that you are right. That will be the smoking gun for the Feds.
Trayvon would've certainly understood those words ... and DeeDee, too.
“By admitting to the accusation you lower your moral standing. You aren’t taking their ammo away, you are taking a bullet.”
My tactic is to say “No, I’m not. You saying it doesn’t make it so. Meanwhile, how about addressing the point I just made?”
Welcome to the club. There will be a newcomers breakfast in the Blue room at 8.
