so true
And I won't tell who of the admins is actually registered there.
hmm
that site is hilarious btw!
poetry forums LOL
"Does having no hair define who you are?"
even the internet is racist: on firefox type nigger and then type wiggers, wiggers comes up as a spelling mistake while niggers doesn't whats that all about?
if someone you don't even know called you a nigger you would laugh?
We didn't consider it racism because we both knew it was a joke.
I don't know any group of nerds/losers at school that call themself that. :/
ofcourse skin colour defines you behaviour in some ways.
and sometimes skin colours actually is important, for example if a well schooled turkey boy comes to holland and tries to find a job with the name ali mohemmed achmed, it will be ten times harder than when he names himself frans de vries.
does the name cenk help me ? :)
But
Black > White as always
Remembah it bro
You stated their skin colour was the reason for the attack, why they attacked. Ergo everyones skin colour must define how they act.
You will never understand how I am thinking since you will never move to Hungary and see whats happening here...
And my journal was about crimes made by dark skinned guys, and its just 1 days happening. (there are millions what u will never even hear)
My point is: you will never understand what is racism and why is for while you live in the UK.
+ dont get anything as personal offence.
Just that it's not as simple as saying "they act this way because they're x skin colour".
But i still say i m not against any race, but the gipsies at Hungary. I would never wish anyone the same problem .
It's not about the color of their skin, but wether they are the biggest representatives of that country's poor/lower class ppl. And the reason why it is that way is quite fucking obvious.
If so, it would be interesting to see a poll about legalization of cannabis. I've always wanted to see what the outcome of such a poll would be :)
1. It's a plant - which can be grown anywhere, and is not as profitable like any other legal drug (= a threat to the alcohol/tobacco industry).
2. It's medicine and drug corporations don't want it legalized, because people can grow their medicine themselves (and they profit off people being ill = no profit for them either).
3. The prohibition roots in a racist America, where it was seen as the black mans drug.
4. It's a peaceful drug, which doesn't lead to violence (as a matter of fact, it's said that if it was legalized, a lot of people would become pacifists, and that would be a threat to the weapon industry).
I'm not satisfied with the way I put it, but that's the main reasons it's prohibited.
As a conclusion, no corporations/companies/industries would want it legal, because it threatens their market and economy.
What's the matter with crossfire today? Stupidity reaches its climax.
That's the only logical conclusion to control drug abuse (especially amongst minors).
A crime is a crime. If I commit a crime under the influence of drugs, it's no more, nor is it any less, of a crime - should I have committed that crime sober.
Should Heroin be available on sweet counters? No.
Should Methadone be offered as an opiate replacement? Yes.
Should Weed be offered in controlled establishments? Yes.
Should MDMA be offered in controlled establishments, where we can control the cut? Yes.
This is coming from someone who doesn't use drugs at all (except for the occasional drink).
By the way, I'm talking about street extacy/polluted extacy, I'm in favor of legalizing pure MDMA

My grandma had a brother which was missionary in Congo. He was still there when Congo got liberated from Belgium. Many white people had to flee, and leave everything they had behind. So there was this factory which had a truck. What did the native people do when it got abandoned?
They just drove with the truck, untill it had no more fuel!
Untill the day of today, the truck is still standing where they stopped back in the days!
This just shows black people are stupid
:<
1st story: It was like 30 years ago. Everytime Gipsies came to village (where my father had been living), everyone was hiding chickens, so they won't steal it. If you lost a hen => Gipsy.
2nd story: There was a small house on railway station (waiting room etc.). Gipsies came and started to live there illegally. So local authorities demolished the building and you can't buy ticket there now.
As a bonus, my story: I go back from school to railway station. It's about 2km trough the city (~100k ppl) and I see 3 Gipsies begging for money to buy food (but they won't accept food; funny, huh?).
I'm just telling that 90%+ of them are just lazy, begging ppl
I don't think it's envy though, I think it's frustration.
Now you could argue that ignorance after having the opportunity to learn is symptomatic of stupidity, and I'd have sympathy with that argument, but saying that A doesn't know XYZ therefore A is stupid is a logical fallacy.
Thanks for your comment, although I had to read it up to 5 times before understanding it, you're correct!
No platform is bullshit.
Most people cannot, however, go through life being racist simple because they're not strong enough. Humans are social creatures, and prudence takes over. 'Collective fears' overtake, and in some ways compensate for individual fears of inadequacy. It is easier for the white man to ignore the fact he is weaker than a fellow white, and band together to victimise the black man.
Biologically? No.
Culturally? Sometimes.
In your own eyes? Possibly.
In the eyes of other people? Sadly, yes.
Is it important? It shouldn't be.
unfortunately, it seems today that the person who is looking at you, wether you are black,yellow,white or brown that dictates who you are. stereotyping every single person , just because of a skin colour is fucking rediculous.... but it seems as if every second kid i see on crossfire uses "nigger" like its cool and makes them funny. it isnt, it makes you a sad , small minded retard with a shallow, crap outlook on the rest of your life. love thy fellow man fuckers, its only a short life, too short for hate.
but on topic. of course your skin colour dictates who you are. im scottish and white and im a very proud scot. i love my heritage and everything about scotland, as do scottish asians, muslims, blacks and chinese. we fucking OWN :D
Pretty sure it would affect the majority of people if they were in a visible minority (a small minority, more so).
What if we ask Does your HAIR colour define you? I would vote YES because it does so the poll question is really tricky..
Yes, I need sun creme while others don't. :-(
Although I do think it looks retarded if the girl is fine with it, why are you not? What does it do to you if someone "dances" like that?
Just playing devil's advocate here, I do think it looks retarded when they're doing crazy stuff like that. But as long as the girl is fine with it, why does it matter who does it? It's not like just black people dance like that, is it?
btw. what do you expect of nigger if every of them has a forefather who got cath into a net by smarter white guy? :D
I bet you're one of them insecure, emo, racist cunts that end up doing a massacre in a public school in Finland. People like you are a disgrace to the Finnish people.
Have you ever been in Finland ? Do you have any idea of finnish culture ?
You would be very surprised to see how racist the common people of this country truly are.
The real disgrace of Finland is that everyday I see these aliens walking down the streets who don't belong here.
Blacks & Whites = Human, np
seriously, what? i hope i didnt get the irony in your comment and you know that it's the other way round O_o
btw i'm even a german patriot ;)
waiting for vargen.
I believe our societies are the mirror of our souls as a people. All the white societies look similar, same with the arabs, the asians and the blacks. Now you might say this is straight out geographical. You might say that just because they have been living in this place their society looks like this and that. That it is straight out of their enviorment. But who created the enviorment? The people living in these places and countries has defined them. The enviorment is a reflection of our racial soul.
We are defined in separate ways, and our societies work differently. I believe asking a black man to adapt to a white society is unfair. He doesn't have what it takes in the first place to fit into the society. Just like we would have major problems living in Africa.
We see this phenomena all over europe now. Our multiculutral paradise is comming down on us. People that has been ripped out from their natural way of life and cannot handle the society are creating havoc. Many arabs and blacks in Sweden are very hostile to the society. Why would they be this to a countrys people which has accepted them and financed them by welfare? Gangs of arabs rome the streets looking for kids to rob, girls to ridicule, or even rape. Why do they do this? Why do they move in groups and especially target ethnic Swedes? Is it from our so called racism, our intollerance, our unknowing racism or is it from the area they are living in creating this behavior?
I believe this is because we are different racially, and because we don't acknowledge our differences we are creating this living hell for ourselves, or perhaps better said, our enemies has created this for us. I cannot believe any sane person who can call this so called multiculture, which it is far from - more like an anticulture, a good place to live in.
This is the way of nature. Two races cannot share the same area of living, this powerconflict will appear. If you just open your eyes you will see these tendencies wherever you go. If it is in Berlin or in Stockholm it will look the same.
I don't hate blacks, arabs or asians. However I hate the anti-white politics we have today. This multicultural politics which fueled by the men with noses for business in the media is creating an even more hostile image against swedes and white people. These forces, very dark forces, doesn't have our best thoughts in mind. Clearly a hard lobbying work to finalize the multicultural project which has brought 1.5 million foreigners to Sweden in less than 40 years has caused alot of pain and agony for many many people. These people working to establish this multiculture doesn't think of the people in the first place. Not white, not black, not asian or arab. The ultimate goal must be a replica of USA. A country with only consists out of racemixed individuals, no connection to each other what so ever. The only thing that matters is to consume and gain status in the society for the idiot.
We are dying, wake up and see the world for what it is before It's too late.
In your country for an example, you cannot even criticize the jew without getting thrown into jail. That is the law over in Germany.
You are free to believe whatever you want about what I am saying. Don't take me word for it, form your own oppinion. But please, be open and criticize whatever you hear. That is the true way to enlightenment. Don't believe the media, don't believe me, look it up yourself and form your own oppinion!
that's the problem. whom to believe, where to look things up? i never said i trust media, but where to inform myself about things? in the internet? i only can fully trust things i've seen and encountered personally
the feeling of not being accepted by your fellow men is one of the reasons these whole crime/parallel societies shit is happening.
and thats not something unsolvable, people are just not ready to make changes.
We are ment to live life as nature intended, that is the only way to our salvation in this sick world. It is not about racial hatred.
i agree with your last point, though i dont think the typical european lifestyle has much to do with natures life intention for us, even not if there would be no multiculture here.
The laws of nature cannot be overthrown. More and more people in these dark times are starting to realize this but are afraid to say something about it because of the climate of these topics today.
You might think I'm extreme, narrowminded, or whatever you can come up with. I accept you thinking that. This society however demands all people to accept eachother as equals on all levels and to say goodbye to their roots and heritage to accept the multicultural paradise. I call that extreme.
its an extreme change, thats true. but because its not yet "working as intended" i wouldnt say its never going to work. its an evolution (of mind), that takes time.
since we both live in germany, what kind of roots and heritage are you talking about? i dont know why those could not still exist next to other roots and heritages in one country, as long as they dont harm fellow men.
if they do, you should think about their right to exist and if they should still be followed.
I still wouldnt trust al1 what my shoes though...
Happy metal fuck you all lol!
e: but let me guess thats the festival? :>
But someone put recordings online a while ago
how stupid can be the humanity ?
*rolling eyes*
:< sry i just cant view this topic without turning unbelievably sarcastic... maybe its cause i just cant believe those guys really mean that shit they let slip out of their empty heads :x
i wanted to tell something about germany, but my english is too low. communication breakdown oh yeah.
seems like you looked at the text and saw what you wanted to see just like "crime? by a n***a? yeah fits the skin!"
Sometimes you have to make a quick decision based on those looks. For example, if I walk through the city late at night, I will be far more cautious walking towards a young black or Moroccan guy than if I walk towards an older white man.
On a serious sidenote: I guess in a way the first impression makes me prejudiced, but I can't say that I mind. It's not purely based on race, it's just the general impression. People with skinheads, certain clothes, tattoos or piercings make me more cautious too.
for me it isn't
but for others, sadly, it is

Do I think that people act differently because of the color of their skin? Yes.
Especially when it comes to the way a person is raised and thus how he acts/behaves. I believe that if everyone earned the same, everyone could realistically achieve anything he wanted, you could be any colour you wanted to be without any kind of social discrimination holding you back to do what you dream of doing.
In my opinion, the only 'cure' for racism is education, provided everyone gets an equal shot at a job regardless of skin colour. I strongly believe that racism will be gone in the near future, we (humanity) have come a long way since ww2, prime example being Obama.
(correction on percentage)
Why we as whites should care about lazy blacks who, for example in Haiti, can't even read (just about half of all haitians can't read and/or write). Why we should feel responsible for them? Although whites already do all to help them (for the blacks) to integrate, they just simply don't do that - why should they if whites will help them anyway?
The proportion of poor white people in jail is much greater than that of afluent white people.
The male prison population is a good 13x larger than the female.
Just to clarify, Chris has about trebled the ethnic minority prison population - it's about 22% of the male population and 29% female. Or you could break it down some more, about 11% of the prison population are foreign nationals.
Means nothing unless you're willing to look into the individual case of each :)
As slajdan hinted at, there's number of reasons why it's like it is.
Many of your arguments are so basic and lacks a substantial prospect, I think you should try to figure out the deeper bits of the problems rather than focusing on what the problem causes. Give the boy a fish and he got food for a day, learn the boy to fish and he got food for the rest of his life.
Oh and yeah, EVERY and I mean EVERY poor country is poor for a reason or two, and in most cases it is both, care to guess?

But you can say that - at least here in my region or in germany in general - things have changed a lot in the last 10-15 years. It's become better, but both sides still have lots to do before everyone is "equal".
voted no btw .
Maybe flexibility depends on skin colour??:ppp
Otherwise, the behaviour of a person reflects on his surrounding influences, so of course it does!
Rankings
now gtfo, and go back to being banned brainless fuck
:~>
these people found that they "had" to behave very differently because they had a different skin colour
proven.

wtf?:D
ye well, but normally you can still recognize it, like with the noses or the shape of the face in general
And my work PC triple-posts on crossfire. I delete the spares. It's VERY annoying.
I can see massive variation from place to place and situation to situation on the effect it has though. In some cases, especially prevalant in eastern europe (see above) racism is still rife and widely seen as acceptable. In these situations obviously it has a profound effect. Similarly if you're in an area (generally a poor area) which is ghettoised in some regard (eg there are blocks of people of different races and backgrounds who don't mix) then it's a significant factor. In other cases, such as mine and, for example, what I saw when I was in portugal, you see groups of friends wandering around with every mix of races. They don't care that Bob's white, Fred's black and Tom's asian (although I had to debate whether to give them ethnic names in my example or not - does that say something?).
NB: Should I give everyone who voted yes warning points for racism/discrimination?
