So, yes, let's talk.
He's two-faced on the issue.

He condemned Imus and said he should be fired.
He said we should not be "enabling" hate like that.

OTOH, he makes excuses for his Pastor.

That sums it up.
His pastor never said anything racist though. No one has provided any evidence or even a decent argument to support this statement.

Are you high?
I don't have a library of the soundbites, but what I've been hearing on the radio is insane.
Period.

Soul just to quote you about the N-word earlier and now you say Rev. Wright's statement isn't racist:

Makes NO sense.

Yeah, as usual, double-standards.
I was raised that the N-word was the worst thing ever.
Now, it's everywhere.
And the bizarre thing is, only one group of people can use it.
What other word has that distinction?
Name one.
Dare ya!

The KKK is not a race. It's an organization. He referenced the KKK as a means to show how the White government oppresses Blacks. That's a very sound argument. The US spends more on prison than any other first world country on earth In comparison to other first world countries, the American public school system is one of the worst. The FBI Census stated that Whites were arrested more than any other race, but that minorities are the most often convicted. Another FBI Crime statistic showed that the defining factor in whether or no someone commts a crime is economical. Countless studies have shown that prison and jail are not effective in rehabilitating inmates.

So what does that show? We spend less and less on education and more on imprisonment. We release inmates knowing that they'll come right back. So there's no even chance that monorities can succeed like their White peers. Why do we build more prisons? Because it's government contracted work. Everything from the toilet paper, to the metal used to build the cells is paid for by the government. It's just like the war. War is profitable just like prison is. This is all FACT.

He's a Black preacher. Black preacher's talk to their congregations just like I talk to a friend. It's honest stuff. If he's a racist and an anti-American hate monger, I guarantee you, a LARGE portion of America's Black population are the same. I still haven't found ONE part of any of the youtube speeches that wasn't true or based on biblical fact.

We've already discussed that the N-word shouldn't be used by those not of a certain group, just like ANY slur shouldn't be used by those not of a certain group.[/i]

Done that already...

F****t = used by gays. If used by a heterosexual, it could be considered hate speech.

B**** = used by women. If used by a man in reference to a female, it could be considered verbal domestic violence

Ricer = used by import drivers. If used by a domestic driver on a person who is not a ricer, can cause conflict.

Beaner = used by Latinos. If used by another ethnicity, it could be considered hate speech.

Jap = used by Japanese....

Our society is FULL of these types of words. I could literally go on for weeks posting words that are ok for one group to say, but not others.

Haven't you ever called a relative an insult in a jokng way? What if some random person said the same thing?

You're just wrong.
I never hear people in those groups using those words, but I'm done in this thread - you're liberal who uses the same, tired justifications for the same BS.
It's a lifestyle.
It makes money off of the poor and ignorant.

I feel for people like you.
Honesty is just not in your life.

That's a great way to argue a point "You're just wrong"

You've never heard people in those groups call each other those words? You've never heard a woman call another woman a b***h? I can turn to vh1 right now and hear it about 10 times before the next commercial airs.

Ever hung around gays? They use terms like f*g hag all the time! Margaret Cho is a very outpsoken ___ rights activist who even wrote about being a f*g hag. Her stand up is FULL of homosexual slurs. Despite that, she's loved by gays.

I hear Latinos call each other wetbacks and beaners all the time! I hear at Scion meets lol. Sorry sir, but that was a very poor rebuttal.

Oh! And calling someone a liberal because they don't think like you is another fantastic way of arguing a point

I'm actually a registered Independant who voted for Bush

Have fun in a thread where everyone thinks exactly the same and doesn't challenge your point of view!

^ That's why there is a HUGE difference between an arguement and a debate. Besides, you're right about groups calling their own group racial terms, and if anyone says otherwise, they're a bigot. The easiest way to prove you're point, is to simply use Rap as an example. 90% of black rap artists use the word N****r in at least 1 of his/her song, and they use it in a non-derogatory manner.

We're from two different schools. You took psych classes, and I think for myself. If that insults ya, sorry. Explain it away or something. One thing I'm certain of, you're wrong, and you'll never get it. You took psych classes.

How can I be wrong? Because of my education? That makes no sense.

For every point you've made, i've given you an educated response. You used a prominent African American quote for dramatic effect, I pointed that you used it out of context. You kept talking about slavery and how Blacks needed to get over it, I pointed out how slavery was not even a part of the discussion since everything Obama's pastor talked about was in PRESENT TENSE.

Damn education huh
