Reply #187: Oh for Christ's sake! What is racist about it? [View All]

Sorry the people involved in the video were of a race. I tried to find one that had people with no skin or facial features. The woman in the video was flailing and kicking ass, much like so many claim the five-year-old was doing. It was a natural tie-in, especially since the woman happened to be of the same race as the child. That does not make it racist! If it was of a white woman, heck, then it would have been racist...and just plain stupid, since the girl is black, as is her mother. What would you have posted if it was a white woman or Asian woman and I joked that it was her mom?

Get a thicker skin. The video was funny, and race has nothing to do with why it was funny. If you think it does, than the "racial" epithet might deserve a look in the mirror. Just because a person of color does something funny it doesn't make another person a racist for commenting on it! I was just trying to lighten up a heavy thread.

But I'd sure love to know how you get "racist" out of it. I didn't create the people or the video. It's just who they are, filmed doing something. Race didn't enter into in until you started flinging unfounded epithets.
