Missed edit: page 18 indicates that the domestic violence rates of the general population do not change a lot relative to income, education, urban living or rural living. ---

I’m back! Okay, I’ve read the whole thread - I should probably be sorry for goading you, **BMada** , but if you’re going to hang out in the Pit, you should probably stop leading with your chin. I’m about the mildest Pitizen here. I don’t think I dare say anything else about natives except to say that I would very much like for them to have better lives. Now, where’s the cake? ---

You have not apologized once for stating such an ignorant remark. Only to backpeddle and say that it’s not what you meant. you had to think what you were typing. You weren’t in some sort of rush to get out a quickie reply to turn this into some typed too fast didn’t think sort of thing. You dont need to apologize for the goading you gave me, like you said, we were in the Pit, it’s anything goes. My chin is out here because you left your chin wide open with “You have the freedom to say what you want; it comes with the responsibility to think about what you’re saying and how it will affect your audience.” You got my reaction, I got the bum’s rush from everyone in the Pit, that’s how it works, yet there never is a formal retraction or apology for making such an ignorant statement in your correction post. You should be sorry that PC liberal bleeding hearts like me can read the racist sentiment in your original despicable statement. Take your own advice and regard your audience’s reaction to the ignorant filth that permeates in your mind, deal with it, as i do, I know I’m racist, so are you and everyone else. Just like how **1920s Style “Death Ray”** put it so eloquently “Perhaps it’d be more accurate to say that some give the rest a bad name. The overall problem though is caused by the racist person judging one person based on the actions of other people with similar coloured skin. Unfortunately people have relied on the kind of pattern recognition and assumptions that lead to racism since coming down from the trees. The trick is to recognise when your assumptions are based on flawed pattern recognition.” It’s pattern recognition, we all do it, notice it before it becomes something manifested in your typed out thoughts and sayings. Think before you type, and continue to pad your post count. And one more fuck you to Old\_joe suck a big fat one on the Observational fact remark. Because it’s common doesn’t mean it’s set to the whole. ---

I forgot to add, Cat Whisperer, thank you for at least reading the whole thread and digesting it and replying. This isn’t sarcastic or mean-spirited. Seems like everyone else has trouble reading it yet you didn’t once say something like wtf, learn english much? Thanks. edit: wait hold up this is the Pit, i forgot to add you snivelling cum dumpster of a cunt that smells of pus-ridden assholes.

> [@BMada](#): > > I got the **bum’s rush** from everyone in the Pit I hear there’s a cream for that now… Or was that for the Bum’s thrush? Hmmm… maybe it was a case of bun rash?

That said, I didn’t think you were racist in your OP, **BM** , perhaps a bit emotionally charged but that’s about it. ---

I think Bmada may be Eloquent in Her Native Tongue. But it is obvious what she is saying: Cat Whisperer is a hypocrite. She says that people have the responsibility to make sure their “free speech” is not offensive, but she herself is guilty of saying something offensive not too long ago (hence the time stamps). Since she obviously wasn’t intending to be offensive, she apparently didn’t take her own advice. (apologies if I got your gender wrong, Bmada.) ---

Apparently, from what I can discern, (and it ain’t easy), **BMada** couldn’t be madder (thank you, thank you, I’ll be here all week), because someone misspoke. And though she retracted it, owned having misspoken, and admits ruing the goading, this is somehow not enough. I’m thinking this must surely be because **BMada** has, obviously, never ever misspoken, and, therefore, cannot possibly relate. It would appear that nothing short of a pound of flesh for atonement will do. Get on that, would you **Whisperer**! Crikey mate, calm down. ---

how do you misspeak when typing? it’s not like a slip of the tongue. You are typing it, u submit the reply, you can read it as you type. I’ve misspoken plenty, but typing a statement that can have racial overtones, that i will most certainly never do, write or type, i read what is in front of me and delete/erase if it doesn’t sound good enough. I doubt there’s ruing the goading, the word “probably” is slipped in there. ---
