I'm sorry, I just don't see it your way.

And by the way, I myself don't think I have done any of that. I may have laughed at some comments made. This is really ridiculous. I am not really sure why I responded to you. You are trying to skew the focus of this discussion which was on the case of bashing someone based on what race they are. I was only trying to get you to be mindful that your comments will be taken offensively by members of this board that BELONG TO THAT RACE.

That is it.
Najera has been bashed to no end around here for his playing ability and raised the the status of basketball god for apparently his race cause he's not that good. I know alot of people who are fans of Najera for the sole reason of his race. Since the thread was obviously going to become a Najera bashing sesssion I just put the two together and made it "Mexican bashing". A joke, in poor taste I agree but IMO not anymore tasteless than murder and child molestor jokes.

I've heard a million Mexican and wetback jokes in my lifetime as well as deragatory statements and insults hurled at me personally and I still don't get offended. We all have different levels of tolerance around here. I've got four little cocunut kids at home and I don't get offended by pedofile or molestation jokes. Thick skin I guess.
