With the comment you made, you're more interested in starting flame war than solving. Have you forgot about Dimebag Darrell getting killed in an Ohio Nightclub in Dec. 2004? Have you forgot about a man being stabbed to death at a Corrosion of Conformity concert in Tampa, FL. almost 2 years? My point is that violence can happen anywhere. Whether it's inside or outside the club; whether it's in the hood or the suburbs. Whether overseas or in our own backyard, violence doesn't discriminate!

Yeah, basically. But Grand Wizard Dupek doesn't quite get that.  Let's just blame the black folk & move along . . . .

i think a better question is "is hating the best thing to do?" (or even the only thing to do), to which i believe the answer is no.  did the perp get that person once, or for the rest of their life?  how long should the victimization go on?  i realize it's easy for me to engage in arm-chair psychology ("get some help") having never been victimized myself...

So is this like a female pack of droogies or what?

Last night my friend and I walked from the club down Vermont Ave. to U St and then on to Coppi's at 14th & U and then we walked back the same way later on. Nobody mugged us or even looked threatening. Nor did we observe any raging packs of black girls roaming the streets.

i've even heard that people live in this area and walk around it every day.  the horrors, i can't imagine how they survive.

a young man was killed in Nissan's parking lot either last year or the year before. So it happens everywhere. I don't feel scared when I leave the club and it's not going to stop me from attending shows. But I feel bad for the bouncer who got spit on because that is the lowest form of disrespect and it's just plain disgusting.

Damn, but some of these Wizards have grand ta-tas!

 I still think many, if not most, regular maroons on this bboard are either living in the past...or are indeed truly stupid(and not just pretending).
 
 I am not a racist at all, or no more or less  than anyone else on this bboard.  Maroons not included.
 
 I DO like the topic of race & the politics of it, though, as it's the 800 pound gorilla in the room.  Which also seems to me to be an invisible gorilla to many on this bboard.
 
 Maybe a better anology is:  In Soviet times it was forbidden for ordinary, run-of-the-mill Russians to listen to The Voice Of America on their shortwave radios...deemed by the state to be dangerous for the proletariat's ears.  But what were the dissidents doing anyway?  And what happened to the Soviet Union later as a result???
 
 That's right, if you tell someone that something is forbidden then it becomes a secret desire.  You're correct in saying I get a payoff from the reactions of dyed in the wool apparatchiks like yourself. If this was Soviet Russia, no doubt you would have already turned me into the NKVD, who would readilly ship both our asses to a Siberian uranium mine. Me, for behaviors contrary to the revolution...and you, well you can't be trusted by comrade Stalin anymore, for being a suspicious motherfucker who turns people in.   Thanks a lot.
 
 I say: Fuck the status quo!  I say: Why don't you go back to the sixties where you all belong?!?  
 
 Pick up some groovy signs and march in the streets for gorbal harmony or freedom for the oppressed Afhgan freedom fighters, or something..?  Stick it to the man!  Anything.  It suits you, grandly.

I'd also submit that the studiously outre and "noncomformist", the artistic and "creative people" who pride themselves on "marching to a different drum", in fact march in slavish lockstep politically, socially, and philosophically.
 
 That's evidenced here all the time.

Dupek, the Henry David Thoreau of our time.

[sweetcell]

indeed, and like thoreau his ideas are very current - for the mid-19th century.  and nice work comparing yourself to anti-soviet dissidents, very apt comparison   :roll:     i posit that prisoners of conscience in Siberia would have resented it immensely.

will do, as soon as (a) you figure out the physics of time travel, and (b) do the same yourself except set your dial to the 1860's.  you'll be free to pet your invisible gorilla all you want.

What is I drove thru downtown DC blaring a racist music CD in my convertable...not as a gesture of racism, but just because I bought the cd and wanted to hear what all the brouhaha was all about -to understand?
 
 And it's off to the mines with you...you overly inquisitive intellectual, you!

[Frank Gallagher]

Why do you all take his bait....Dupek I'm guessing, is white. Wether he's racist or not is neither here nor there. Regardless, what's the big deal?...if you don't like racism then don't be racist.
 
 It just pisses me off that white racists are censored and portrayed as some kind of outlaw yet it's socially acceptable to be black and racist, almost to the point of encouraged. If you don't think so just tune in to any black oriented radio or tv station and listen to the hate broadcast over our airwaves in the form off that disgusting rap and/or hip-hop music.
 
 I learned very quickly that in America if you think a white person is a moron then that's your opinion, but if you think a black person is a moron then you're a racist.
