The term "racist" is both an adjective and a noun. So both work. You can say "I am a (noun)." And you can say "I am (adjective)."

Ok. Thanks for clearing that up, Jay!

You weren't racist in my opinion. I'm black and if i moved next to you and you found some weed and thought it was mine because i was black I woulda just laughed and said nope.

It was tossed. I have never smoked Weed. I am not a criminal.


What a waste! Do you realize that is is legal medically in many, many, states - and 100% legal in two! 

Now, what if you had given the bag to them as a house warming 'welcome to the neighborhood' gift?



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

I think you and your girlfriend should be ashamed, I personally find it distasteful and morally repugnant. People have a hard enough life without the added complication of being stereotyped because of the race that they are.



This besides the shaming part. I think that's pretty obvious without being said like that. They know what they did was wrong.

Are black people in different countries called African *insert country name*. Also, do black people really prefer to be called "african american", or do they not care if you just say black. Maybe I'm not right in the head but to me it's almost more racist when people say "african american" because it's like they're going out of their way to not sound racist which in turn makes them more racist. When I played soccer on all black teams, or all brown teams I don't care if they call me white boy. I certainly wouldn't expect them to go out of their way to say "the canadian from romania".

No, that is just USA thing. Everywhere else they are black.

In my country, the n-word is acceptable too.


The "N" word should never be acceptable.And yes,what he did or his GF did is racist.

That is subjective and a cultural thing.

When I was learning to read, the abc book had a black man with the N-letter. The n-word comes from the name of the subspecies(negroid) of human race.

Which N word are we talking about? Negro is still acceptable in a lot of countries (where you'll catch heat from calling black people negroes in America, but to a much lesser degree than "nigger.")


I'll confirm this. I'n Romanian "negro" means the color black. So while it sounds similar to other more offensive words it's not the same thing.



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.

I wouldn't have ran to my African American neighbors, I would have asked my GF why she was out of the kitchen.

Found a bag of Weed on the ground outside my house. We just had new neighbors move in a few houses down. They are African American, thought it was them, when it was actually one of my family members. GF went to there house and let them know that there are drug dealers around. She did this before we found out.

 

No I am wondering where I got this Racism from? Why I automatically assumed it was them.

lol dude wtf? Am I reading this right...she went to the new 'neighbors' house to say that? 


Thats the way I read. *you know what* be crazy nowadays

If you find drugs its like god is telling you to have some fun. It doesnt happen that often use the chance.

Well you are racist at some level but there are few people who are not assuming things based on race. I myself have no problem with most races but I have a deep aversion against gypsies mainly because all of them seem like they would kill you and sell your organs anytime. Everytime I came in contact with one it became a serious situation within minutes. Those guys are dangerous.

Nice try, but I am not going to use a word which is against the rules. Keep on fishing.
