This is a statement about race. The newspaper is printing a factual statement that is calling the race of the person to the reader’s attention. A fucking picture of a person is NOT a comment about race, it is a picture of a person. If a picture of a person makes YOU think about that person’s race, this is YOUR deal, not the paper trying to make race a part of the story.
Where are you disagreeing with me? What obvious matter of fact? That the paper was making a statement about the woman’s race by printing a picture? Do you think that every time the Washington Post prints a picture of President Obama or Tiger Woods they are commenting on his race?
A fucking picture of someone is not a comment on the race of that person unless the viewer of the picture makes it so, which you obviously do. I don’t necessarily think this makes makes you a racist, but you sure seem to be preoccupied with race!
For the record, I usually enjoy reading your posts and you have actually won me to your side on occasion, albeit rarely. Typically I think you have interesting, rational, viewpoint. Not a viewpoint that I can share, but one that I can at least understand. That said, in this case you are being a moron. Rand was the first person to bring race into the other thread. The newspaper, regardless of what you and Rand think, did not print her picture so that people would think:
Finally, I don’t call names or make up titles unless they are justified. Bite me asshole.
