Guys -

Which part of 'LET THIS PART OF THE DISCUSSION DROP' wasn't clear?

I mean, really. :scream:

Please knock off what whole discussion regarding the use of the word 'retarded', like, now...or I'm closing this thread.

Thanks.

^ No. I would be sorry about how un-PC my thread is if I actually gave a shit about your apparently ultra-fragile sensibilities.

PC?

There are actually people who are called "retarded" as a slur. You know, in reality. Insulting people, who actually may read this BBS, and then claiming you're being prosecuted by some imaginary "PC Police" doesn't make you a hero... it makes you a fucking asshole.

Grow the fuck up asshole.

Warning for flaming.

And ONCE AGAIN "PKTrekGirl" chooses the wrong side of an argument.

Plum and I had a major disagreement once upon a time in here, but I have no animosity towards the guy. And in this case, he is 100% RIGHT.

The original post deserved a "warning." Plum's comment was him standing up for his moral position. Yet again, PKTrekGirl completely misses the point. :rolleyes:

He was right. "Warning" him for it is WRONG. MORALLY SPEAKING, I mean.

As for board rules... I don't see where that's a violation of board rules. I think it's calling it as it is.

Shall I get "warned" too?

Right is right. Wrong is wrong. Punishing someone for standing up for what they truly believe is right isn't just WRONG... it's downright PERVERSE.
 
Cary, chill out. I can't read PKTrekGirl's mind, but I'm pretty sure Plum isn't getting nailed for his stance on the subject. He's very likely getting warned for:

Just give her a break. We don't exactly make this section a pleasant place to be half the time, much less moderate.

He called number6 an asshole.
 
Cary L. Brown said:I'd probably have just referred to the girl behind the counter as a brain-dead moron. Which says exactly the same thing he was saying but ONLY insults HER. ;)

Explain the part where that isn't offensive. My son was born brain-dead. You're propogating hate. That term is every bit as offensive as "nigger" "spic" "fag" or "wop". So much for an enlightened culture. Grow up *%&hole!
