You can go back to the Democrat Party Headquarters and tell your bosses who are looking to protect Obama by controlling the message that you have and will fail here on this board.


Got it.

This grown man did not just call another grown man a Negro did he? It is 2014 . The statement in itself is telling.

Excuse me, but my use of negro is perfectly correct accorind to the following: Anthropology teaches that there are three races of humans: Caucasian (people of northern European descent), Mongoloid (people of Northern and eastern Asian descent), and Negroid (people of Central and southern African descent). This is a classification system developed to describe the various races of humans, and ostensibly contains all of the sub-races (a scientific use of the term) of humans.

I did not use the terminolgy in an attempt to slur or slam anyone. It is an older term, but one that is still used, and it is not inflammatory! Thank you!

And double post too apparantly. How puerile of you. By all means troll on "pastor." Never voted Democrat in my entire life. This board is failing itself though. Ever notice what side all the racist comments from on this board. Hint - it ain't the liberals and you know it.

I believe this sitting POTUS is ONLY capable of running this country into the ground.

My feeling has nothing to do with Obama being a negro.

There are only two groups of people I know of who still use this term, elderly African-Americans and ........

I gently suggest you never use that term around young or middle-aged African Americans. In fact, I know some elderly African Americans it would not be wise to use this term when they are around.

For my picky critics ...

There are only two groups of people I know of who still use this term, elderly African-Americans and ........ well I won't go there.

I gently suggest you never use that term around young or middle-aged African Americans.

If this is fact, ctb, you had better write the United Negro College Fund .... and suggest they get PC, and rename their name to the United Black College Fund?

If this is all you few folks can find wrong with my OP, then I guess I must have hit this one out-of-the-PARK?

Besides if hip hop blacks can use the "n" word as they see fit, get off my back for calling a black man a negro. That is genetically speaking, proper and correct. Besides, in my lifetime, while the blacks have defined and re-defined what to be called from negro, to Afro-American to colored, to black;I have been on a steady learning curve in order to not offend.

Let's also talk about my black friends who love to lovingly refer to me as "cracker" and "honky" and white-boy. If I offended anyone it would not be my negro, afro-American, black friends and brothers in Christ.

So, ctb, unless you have something more intelligent to add to this OP, it's time to close your eastern seaboard caucasian trap. :thumbs:

Now you are trying to go down a side track. What African-Americans call each other, or words they use is one thing. What you, as a white person, says is quite another.

The word negro may be proper in your white circles, but not in African American circles when it comes from a white man.

Also your use of "hip hop blacks" just adds to where we know you are coming from.

Let's also talk about my black friends who love to lovingly refer to me as "cracker" and "honky" and white-boy. If I offended anyone it would not be my negro, afro-American, black friends and brothers in Christ.

That is to you face. And maybe it is not so loving as you would like to think, but then maybe it is.

So, ctb, unless you have something more intelligent to add to this OP, it's time to close your eastern seaboard caucasian trap. :thumbs:

I feel it is tim
e for you to own up and be honest about where you are really coming from.

I live on the west coast. I assume you are on the east coast. And your opinion is respectfully submitted, and filed in my "whatever" box. That's all you get from me, so change threads. And don't expend additional finger energy on trying to ram your views down my throat.

As long as I don't dis them with the "n" word , I am fine thank you. And if you get the UNCF to change their name, I will own up to what you think you are right about?:laugh:

Told yall they are "politically conservative". They fall into the "liberal" camp when it comes to modeling the love of Christ .

I've said for two years now that their allegiance to partisan politics is much more important than any allegiance to Christ. You don't get people saying some of the things that have been said and think for an instant that these are authentic people who are serious about loving Jesus and their neighbors as themselves.

And if this board is not being used to glorify Christ, it's being used for something else.
