Mexicans also win the award for chivalry based on the guy who lunged at my wife and tried to kiss her as she walked home from work yesterday.
 
 or maybe he was Salvordorean...for certain he was trash.

Everything's based on something, mankie old sod.  I'm sure even water polo was based upon two Visigoths punching a Vandal's stuffed head about in a muddy pond.

No, I'm only a prick to those who aren't nice to me (or my wife). If he had been a gentleman, I wouldn't "act like a prick" toward him. As if calling him a Mexican is actually all that insulting. Every time I've been in Europe, people have assumed I was either British or Canadian. Now THAT'S an insult.

Let me put it this way:
 
 If someone acts like an asshole toward me, my wife, my family, or my friends, I am going to be a prick toward them.
 
 If someone does not act like an asshole toward the aforementioned people, I typically won't be a prick toward them.
 
 Except for some wacko turn the other cheek Christians, I think most normal everyday people would have the same philosophy.

Fashion is not beige shorts/pants those god-awful boating shoes, a runny catchy shirt and a baseball cap worn the wrong way round. Well not in the civilized world anyway.
 
 I won't argue the ugly comment, you would know better than I an ugly man from a cute one. But doodles are way behind Europe when it comes to fashion sense.

Or to Jesse Jackson
 
 Let??s suppose I am a lowbrow. I am vulgar and have uncultivated tastes. I am boorish, rude, ill-mannered, coarse, rough, crude and ignorant. In addition, I stereotype everyone I meet. I have even managed to stereotype myself. Uh oh. No one is supposed to ever stereotype anyone, according to the current politically correct movement. Stereotyping people is bad because we might accidentally typecast an innocent person in an undesirable mold. However, the problem as I see it, lies with this politically correct approach, not the stereotyping itself. Stereotyping is appropriate some of the time, but deliberately avoiding stereotyping can get you into trouble. Equally vehemently, I am claiming that stereotyping can also cause problems. Most importantly, on occasion, reacting to an unknown subject by stereotyping the person will provide an added level of safety. This chapter??s Area of Enlightenment clarifies why there are times and certain conditions when stereotyping a person is far safer than adhering to the politically correct caveat. The use of appropriate stereotyping can protect us physically and socially. Here is an illuminating example. The Reverend Jesse Jackson was walking alone at night in Washington DC.1He heard footsteps behind him and was afraid he was about to be mugged??which is a common occurrence in Washington, especially at night, and especially when you are alone on a street. The Reverend turned around and saw a white man. Immediately he felt relief that he was not going to be assaulted. Then he felt shame because he had just stereotyped kindred black men. He understood during that split second of observation, that he 1Duke, Lynn, ??Confronting Violence: African American Conferees Look Inward,? Washington Post, January 8, 1994. ©2001 C. Norman Winningstad - Page 7.1
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Page 2
 Area of Enlightenment - Book1Ch7web1 ?? The Joy Of Stereotyping, Chapter 7 had assumed the worst of his own race; he assumed he would be mugged if the man was black, but that he would be safe if the man was white. Reverend Jackson felt shame because he was not thinking in the recommended politically-correct approach. The truth is, he could just as easily been mugged by a white man (after all, there are white muggers). If he had seen a black man, he most likely would have been safe (after all, most black men are not muggers). So, why did Jesse Jackson, a very intelligent gentleman, make the assumption he was safe if the person following him was white, and that he might be mugged if the person had been black? The answer will not please the politically-correct person. Because stereotypes are based upon sound statistics, the serious harm is in not paying heed to stereotypes when danger is present, and in paying attention to stereotypes when no danger is involved. In the former case, we risk physical, emotional, and financial harm. In the latter case, the downside is, at best, embarrassment for having committed a social gaff, at worst, you could be swindled. It is an unfortunate fact that there are a higher percentage of black muggers among the black population than there are white muggers among the white population.2While the absolute number of black muggers and white muggers is perhaps about the same, you are more likely to be mugged if you see a black person, than you are if you see a white person while walking down a street in any inner city late at night. So, the Reverend Jesse Jackson was simply and wisely reacting to his odds. Anyone walking the streets of Washington, D.C. has a higher probability of being mugged late at night than while walking those same streets during daytime. They also have a higher probability of being mugged in Washington, D.C.??any time of day or night??than in almost any other city in the United States. The Reverend was perhaps naïve in his belief that he was safe when followed by a white man??he was simply safer. Since there are far more law-abiding black people than there are black muggers, the chances are good he would have been safe in either case; however, with bodily harm a strong chance if he were mugged, it was wise of the Reverend to be on guard. For the Reverend Jackson, it was better to err by stereotyping. If he was in a safe social setting and had time to chat with the person, he could have afforded the luxury of ascribing to the politically correct approach of waiting to find out, over time, if this new acquaintance fit the stereotype being projected.

You are wrong...we've never been attacked by Europeans. Attempted swindlings by ruthless street vendors, but never attacked.
 
    All I know is my wife and previous girlfriend both complained numerous times of being harassed while walking down Columbia Road in Adams Morgan. If the birds you hang around with have been fortunate enough to not have been harassed, perhaps it's indicative of what your birds look like rather than the perpetrators behaving diffferently.

 I just think that Latino men call out to tall, fair-skinned, non-Latino chicks more because they are outside of what they usually encounter in their daily lives.

nice how you can post horribly racist things in a thread about international baseball and runny kicky, but ask if someone has a ticket to a show at another venue, and the thread gets deleted.

What has been said that was racist?
 
 I know the thread originated on an anti-American tone, but I wouldn't call that racist...

If you didn't see that as a joke, you're lacking a sense of humor. If you didn't see it as a joke based in reality, you're lacking a sense of reality. Statistics would bear out two things: Europe has much less non-Caucasians than America, and African-American males commit violent crimes at a far higher rate than Caucasian-American males.

Yes, those qualities are more typical of white people.

uh, i was arguing for freer speach. i never said that one or the other shouldn't be allowed, and they censor the word "fuck" on this board, so someone is getting offended about something. but whatever, the show has come and gone, its a moot point.
 
 getting back to the topic, i am surprised that no one brought this up: http://www.sportsline.com/olympics/story/7081013 (http://www.sportsline.com/olympics/story/7081013)
 free speech?

Do they censor f*ck?  I've seen and said that a few times on the board (I think mine were all in one post about my fav, GWB...)

shoeshine, I can see that as the next step by Rumsfeld.  Banning the use of the word "Osama" outside of an advisory context.  Best way to catch folks using it improperly is to bug a bunch of private residences....
 
 Actually, I thought the US coach handled the situation really well.  Kudos to him.

Apparently, the word "fuck" would be better used in the context of Kerry.
 
 
 XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX THU FEB 12, 2004 11:45:28 ET XXXXX
 
 CAMPAIGN DRAMA ROCKS DEMOCRATS: KERRY FIGHTS OFF MEDIA PROBE OF RECENT ALLEGED INFIDELITY, RIVALS PREDICT RUIN
 
 **World Exclusive**
 **Must Credit the DRUDGE REPORT**
 
 A frantic behind-the-scenes drama is unfolding around Sen. John Kerry and his quest to lockup the Democratic nomination for president, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.
 
 Intrigue surrounds a woman who recently fled the country, reportedly at the prodding of Kerry, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
 
 A serious investigation of the woman and the nature of her relationship with Sen. John Kerry has been underway at TIME magazine, ABC NEWS, the WASHINGTON POST and the ASSOCIATED PRESS, where the woman in question once worked.
 
 MORE
 
 A close friend of the woman first approached a reporter late last year claiming fantastic stories -- stories that now threaten to turn the race for the presidency on its head!
 
 In an off-the-record conversation with a dozen reporters earlier this week, General Wesley Clark plainly stated: "Kerry will implode over an intern issue." [Three reporters in attendance confirm Clark made the startling comments.]
 
 The Kerry commotion is why Howard Dean has turned increasingly aggressive against Kerry in recent days, and is the key reason why Dean reversed his decision not to drop out of the race after Wisconsin, top campaign sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

i thought we only cared about politicians penises before we went to war. but in all seriousness, kerry and his wife have a creepy relationship, she still refers to the deceased sen heinz as "my husband". part of the reason i voted for edwards, actually. now they will attack kerry's "honor", which is the only way theresa said she'd use her money for the campaign.

Oh christ.  Like I give a shit where Kerry puts his dick.  I care where he sends our troops and spends our tax money.  He can bang every frickin' lady he sees (as long as they consent!).  Or ass.  I don't care.

You mean it only matters if a Democrat does it.
