Racist Texans suck?

Right.

Ewallace, I totally understand what you’re saying about the Palestinian’s tactics. BUT, what the hell else are they going to do?
They do not have F-16s, AH-1 Cobra gunships, ultra modern tanks purchased from the US and an ally in the form of the world’s only remaining Superpower.

You have to fight with what you’ve got.

And what about the Israeli fundementalists in the 1940s, their tactics were not exactly honourable from what I hear…

Now, I don’t claim to know the ins and outs of the siuation, but for the purposes of this thread I will state the Palestinian viewpoint, seeing as they are the ones that are being racially slurred.

Lets imagine that your (Black Jack and Ewallace) land, which you have occupied historically for many years, is given to another people and you are forced to live in a semi-autonomus way in a tiny strip of what was your home. I’m sure if you were in that situation, BJ and EW, then you would fight tooth and nail to get your land back. And if you had nothing but dynamite and a machine gun to do it with, against somebody with the hardware listed above, I’m fairly sure you would come up with the same tactics that the Palestinians have.

I am not condoning killing civilians, all I’m saying is, before you go around saying Palestinians suck, and throwing racial slurs around, maybe you should think about your privileged position at the top of the world and how it affects what you think is acceptable.

I’m pretty sure if I had Americans suck, or Jews suck, or Texans suck, or Blacks suck, or Asians suck, as my sig., I’d have to borrow Prana’s flame retardent suit.

Wasnt Palestine a British controlled colony before Israeli fundementalists took it??

3

Don’t know.Why?

4

Yeah,and Dr Ruth was a Zionist commando.

He’s most likely referring to what are commonly called the “stern” or “irgun stern” gangs.

Scotty1, you post, “I am not condoning killing civilians” while posting that you completely understand the killing of people who “have F-16s, AH-1 Cobra gunships, ultra modern tanks”.

Could you please define the term “civilian” for the sake of this argument?

Nothing justifies their actions. They are destroying any chance for peace with their ignorance. What the hell does killing civilians accomplish. I’m really **** tired of the pitty party for groups that are oppressed, mistreated or made fun of that justify unspeakable acts because of their treatment. If they were attacking military targets I would have a totally different opinion.

Israel is wrong in it’s occupation. They need to get the hell out of the territories it took in '67. Their tactics and treatment of Palestinians is absolutely wrong. In response to it’s women and children being blown up at a barmitzha(sp?), they should hunt down and kill everyone involved.

I would have put Palestinian Militants Suck but it was too long. I placed that there when I read about the latest bombing of the hotel in Isreal yesterday.

I guess the fact that I’m white and my wife is Hispanic makes me quite the racist. Before you label people a racist, you might want to know a little more about them.

Lighten up.

Just thought you knew what you were talking about scotty since you were bashing the US for supporting Isreal.

Check my status now. Is that better? Man some people just didn’t learn about sticks and stones as children.

OK, here we go

I’ve been waiting for you lot to come back.

JWT: A civilian (by my definition) is somebody unconnected with the military. A military target is an acceptable target for military action, as EWallace himself says “If they were attacking military targets I would have a totally different opinion.”

Ewallace: “I guess the fact that I’m white and my wife is Hispanic makes me quite the racist. Before you label people a racist, you might want to know a little more about them”

It doesn’t matter what your wife is, being a racist does not mean you are racist towards all races. I could hate Pakistanis, but get along with black people fine. But if I hate Pakistanis because they are Pakistanis, then I am still a racist.
What the Palestinians did yesterday was truly awful. I agree.
But the fact is, if somebody makes a blanket derogatory statement about a race, I will label them a racist, regardless of whether or not they have a Hispanic wife.

You can tell me to lighten up because there are no Palestinians here to defend themselves. But I’m pretty sure that if after one of your warplanes bombed an Afghan village and killed a few civilians (probably more than 15) that I put ‘Americans suck’ under my name, more than a few people would stick up for their country’s position. And what I’m saying is, well, it just doesn’t seem fair to put such a comment under your name.

Come to Texas with your anti-Texan Jibber-Jabber & you will get your ass kicked.

Here we go again

Tsunami Surfer: READ MY POSTS. Point out to me the bit that bashes the US for supporting Israel. Can’t find it? Thats because its not there.:rolleyes:

‘Just thought you knew what you were talking about scotty since you were bashing the US for supporting Isreal.’

Crap. I wasn’t doing anything of the sort.

Ewallace: what has sticks and stones got to do with it? I’m not Palestinian. But OK, seeing as how many people the IRA has killed in my country, I’ll put 'Irish suck’under my screen name, and lets see how many Americans of Irish descent and Irish themselves have something to say about it. They can defend themselves, becuase they’re here, but it seems unfair to attack someone who can’t defend themselves. Just because someone is not represented here does not make them fair game.

Maybe it wasn’t the best thing to put.

Webster’s dictionary defines racism as:

“a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race”.
No one is superior. End of discussion.

I really feel for the Palestinian people. They have been given the shaft and it seems no one in the world cared. It is also irritating when I see people from other countries burning the American flag and mimicing a brutal assult on a dummy dressed in red white and blue. Not all Americans agree with Israel. No one is labeling those arab nations racist.

I am sorry if I offended you or anyone else. I do not seriously think that all Palestinians are bad people or terrorists. Most are people just like us trying to get through each day. Their daily struggles are more heartache then I will probably ever know.

Personally I think everyone sucks. I don’t give a **** what color they are. I don’t see color. I am not politically correct either. Labels mean nothing to me. Palestinian, African American, Black, Brown, Jew…whatever. People are people.

Thanks Badger, you’ve just proved my point. Read my previous posts, read what I’ve been complaining about. I put ‘Texans suck’ under my name to prove a point, the point being that people don’t like being told that they suck, they find it unpleasant, hence:

'Come to Texas with your anti-Texan Jibber-Jabber & you will get your ass kicked. ’

But there are no Palestinians here to say that to Ewallace, are there?

Geddit? I don’t know any Texans, let alone dislike them, in fact my only experience of Texas has been Pantera. I’d guess that Ewallace doesn’t know any Palestinians either, so why should he write a slur against them under his name?

I was doing what Ewallace was doing in order to prove my point that was he was doing would **** people off, if only they were here to shout back.

Tell me if you don’t understand.

But there are no Palestinians here to say that to Ewallace, are there?

See above post about demonstrations by foreign countries with burning our flag and assulting our people. That pretty much tells me that they think we suck.

15

nice string…

:rolleyes: Maybe since you guys arent palestinian and arent Isreali, you should leave it alone? You have no idea and no concept of what is going on over there. I think the killing of civillians is wrong in ANY case, but the palestinians dont feel that way. If you want to know who is right or worng, buy a plane ticket and take a trip see if you can ‘get it’.

Red,

That’s absolutely the wrong attitude to take. I love when people say “You can’t judge ‘x’ because you haven’t experienced it.”

Oh, so I can’t find fault in a murderer because I’ve never been on the giving or receiving end of an attempt?

17

Ewallace, my original post purposefully did not contain any malice towards you. If I had have thought you were a ‘proper’ racist, man, I would have let you have it (verbally, obviously). I was just trying to point out that having that statement under your name maybe was not the nicest thing in the world to write. But you haven’t offended me, and I didn’t call you a racist, I merely said you had used a racial slur.

Look, I’m bored at work, you wrote something I took issue with so I called you on it. Interesting discussion. But I’d rather this discussion not turn nasty, since you’re obviously a reasonable guy. Apologies for shoving my self-righteous crap up your arse!!

:smiley:
No hard feelings!

And Red Angel, we’re just discussing the topic of the day, if you don’t like it, don’t join in!!:slight_smile:

18

So why is it that you think Texans suck? And btw, I’d rather the discussion turn nasty.

JWT,

I’ll bite :slight_smile:

Texas sucks because…

  1. Brownsville

  2. They managed to make the Alamo BORING to visit.

  3. It takes too friggin long to drive across the state.

  4. They haven’t REALLY figured out how to barbeque. I’ll leave that to the appalachian states.

  5. Brownsville

  6. Some of 'em put beans in their chili (what the @#$#@ is that?!)

  7. El Paso Mexican foods. WHAT?! If that’s mexican, I’m a swedish closet transexual Geisha living on the moon :slight_smile:

  8. The Dallas Cowboys.

  9. Brownsville

  10. Brownsville

I was born in Denton by the way, and my mom’s from texas, so take it tongue in cheek (ie, please don’t hurt me too bad, I’m just trying to make the thread nasty, as requested.)
