    my thread was not intended to be an indictment of all America.s, just Texans. I am old enough to remember the white only bathrooms and drinking fountains. So racism has been real for in my life. I even remember my Jewish class mate referred to by others as Joey Jewy.
     
  2. Hate is hate. If you hate a whole state, you're still expressing sheer bigotry. Which makes the point of this difficult to quantify. Is your bigotry the "good" kind of bigotry?

    I did not say that I "hate" the whole state of Texas, or all its population. I said it is full of Bigots. You seem to have a problem with conventional formal logic. I comment on the behavior of one, or a hundred, or a thousand. There are many things that I do not like about Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Israel. However, this thread is about what had happened to that 14 year old boy, thus Texas. And this site is all about free speech, not free hate.

    Not sure why this post is liked by a person I thought to be relatively smart (Gas ;)) but even a turd can recognize that the racist talk was not directed at the white house and your president. Also some opposite reactions like a friendly social media invite does not make all the racist comments and convictions disappear or bogus. You are either really bad at critical reading or indeed deliberately misinterpreting things. Maybe I was wrong and it simply is the first. But then I would advice you to take more time to use your brain and maybe read everything twice.

    Uhm, I think you may have completely missed the point.........
    seems like it is you that is misrepresenting others because I honestly don't know what the hell all you rambled on about above has much to do with what 6-eyed posted?
    and why would anyone want to misrepresent Stormman, he does a pretty good job of representing himself as a rather hateful and disturbed individual, but any turd can see that.

    Well it appears then that hateful and disturbed people can sometimes make a valid point as well :p (not saying I agree with all his posts or points at all). Stormountainman was talking about the texan people in the media (I'm sure he did not ment literally every Texan, as I am sure you understand as well), not the white house and the president. If those racist, bigoted and/or islamophobic people and the media didn't react so preposterous it is arguable your president would have gone out of his way to invite this kid.

    You're aware that when I said that about 6 eyed shaman misinterpreting stormountainman we're talking about the last posts on page 5, right? Not the OP(ost). I have a hard time believing you don't know what I'm 'rambling about' :p Maybe you should read the last 2 pages another time as well ;)

    News Flash: Getting a few haters from all walks of life is a consequence of being famous, especially for controversial reasons. But of all the hate mail and negative publicity he has received, it doesn't amount to the crowd funding he's collected from his overnight fan base to litigate the Irving school and police department. He's still got blind support despite all the convincing evidence he lied about inventing a clock.

    And which of my posts on page 5 are you referencing exactly? Stor clearly seemed to ignore all the articles, videos, and posts by other members as the plot holes in this story came to surface.
     
  8. And yet again you call out the whole state and suggest it's full of bigots. Try to find a state that is devoid of bigotry or prejudice. I'm not even from Texas and couldn't care less about it as a pride issue. But I will say your expressions, while you deny they are hateful, are certainly not "love" either.

    Dear Panic, I have been to Texas many times. My opinion was formed after much interaction with the locals. It was also formed after learning that Texas Governor Rick Perry has a family ranch named "The ****** Ranch" after his favorite black horse. Moreover, I never said I loved Texas. There are parts of Texas that I like for geographic reasons. There are people whom I like there; however, they are not representative of the majority. In contrast, one could take a ride up to Portland or Seattle, where folks are jovial and welcoming.
     
  10. It still sounds like you are using a few examples to judge the whole. And the Perry thing is about as isolated as it gets, proof that super wealthy people are out of touch in monumental ways. I have worked in Texas many times writing about boring crap like oil, pipes, valves and container cranes. The majority of the vocal prejudices I heard there came from minorities and was squarely directed at white people. Which is a real shame actually because they seem to get a pass on it. Hatred, racism and bigotry will not just vanish and it certainly isn't going away if 1 side is restricted from it while everyone else tosses it out like candy. At some point all sides have to let go of the hate.

    Unfortunately this kid Ahmed has been turned into a hatred amplifier. And for no good reason. Simply to paint Americans as evil once again. It's really sad when you consider the US charitably feeds more people on this planet than any other nation either directly or by advancing crop sciences. Much of our talent is simply given away to benefit the people of earth. Still, Americans are hated and the roots of it start in small minds.

    I live in Texas and everyone that truly knows this is all just call it Muslim Hysteria....Being from this state I will call it what it is racism...Some people said if it had been a white boy it would have drawn no attention, that is very correct...I noticed one reply about inviting all the poor kids tho the White House..Obama is not going to raise the ire of his Muslim Brethren....

    He is from Texas and HE KNOWS racism first hand. In addition to what has happened to this 14 year old school boy, there have been multiple shooting and killings of Muslims in Texas. Texas is an extreme hate state. I see racial hatred every week, like he does. But, WTF, here on Hipforums we are not allowed to talk about race. There are many here who think America is just a dandy spot in this modern world and everything is just hunky-dory. No sir, there is no racism here. It does not exist. We don't need laws for racism. All dem nice white folks are nice. They just want us to use separate but equal bathrooms and ride at the back of the bus. I started this thread to talk about what had happened to that 14 year old Muslim boy.

    There's a lot of people who hate people for just being white too. But of course hating white people is still legal and acceptable. So, no harm no foul, right? Hate all you want, as long as you hate white people and leave everyone else alone.

    After five decades of verbal abuse and social discrimination by whites, a "colored" person will rise up and resist. Bob Marlay had similar words in his songs, songs about freedom, songs about uprisings. In one of his songs, he wrote, "When the cat is away, the mice will play, political boilance in your cities, yeah!" In another song, he questioned why ordinary people cannot wander around the land, in freedom. He understood that all the free lands had been grabbed by the white superiors who deny the "colored" inferiors use of the free public lands. In Israel, a Jew can get a home building or remodeling permit for $20; at the same time, a Palestinian has to pay $22000 for a similar permit. This discrimination is designed to ethnically cleans the Palestinians who had lived on that land for at least 1550 years, and some had lived there longer. In America, a black man was kept in a cage in a New York Zoo exhibit, so your whites can be entertained by the "sub human missing link" who was caged with chimps. Yes sir, the whites kept that black man in the cage with chimps until 1904, a full 39 years after the end of the civil war. His name was Ota Benga, and he killed himself when he was released, after all the psychological abuse that had resulted from mistreatment at the hands of New Yorkers. Keep in mind, America's famous constitution says his kind were considered to be only three fifths of a normal human. Yes sir, only three fifths of a human, ponder that.

    So this is what? A justification for hate? Like it or not, all the people you really hate in this little rant, are already dead. If you hate people today for being white, you're a racist. It's that simple. This hodge podge of history, facts and rumors you have assembled here is nothing more than a few exceptional cases you want to hold up as if they were the norm. And they are far from it.

    MOST white people you will find on the earth today are NOT racists. Let that sink in. And even when slavery was legal in he US, well over a century and a half ago, MOST white people didn't own them and a growing majority were absolutely against it, but were powerless to change it. But ultimately it did change, for the better. Somehow, I get the feeling that's just not good enough for you.

    So what do you want? The opportunity to whine out your hatred for eternity? Well, in the US you have that right. So, enjoy!!!!
