Straight Dope - The Defender of Free Speech?

I curse you, middle class, and your insufferable analfabetism.

There, happy now?

Bullshit, Henry.

You’ve been around long enough to get an idea of how things work around here. Other posters have explained to you what really happened. As always, contrasting opinions or arguments bounce off you with no effect.*

*“We need more power to Henry’s shields, Captain! Logic is threatening to penetrate!!”

Well, I can interpret this in two ways. One, you’re being sarcastic and implying that I would be upset if I bought a nice house in a nice neighborhood, and then people of color moved in next door. You are incorrect, sir. I would only be upset if my new neighbors were rotten jerks.

I can also interpret this to mean that you are serious, and are a racist. You realize that this is wrong and are working to correct it. I think a lot of people on this message board can relate to that; they were raised by racists, and had to unlearn these prejudices. If this is the case, I think we can applaud your efforts. But please do not project your own problems onto everyone else.

“Jewish anti-black racist”???

Jewish non-black racists = A white Jew that is racist?

That is a little bit too much even for my soul.
I know that:

  • a Finn can be a racist
  • a Jew can be likevise
  • an Arab can be
  • Shakespeare could have been
  • a Russian is a racist, not all of them
  • an American is a racist, not all of them

but that a minority that has been kicked around can be racist…
Well, I call it just common hate to those in power that do not understand the needs/opportunities a minority needs/can give.

I am a Finn-Swede by the way, 6% of the national majority.
That explains nothing, I know.

Let me just explain: I think, or in realiy know, that you, you middle-class morons that believes in what ever the mass-media is feeding you, are just pure simpeltons.
The Finn-Swedes, the Jews are much above your class.
Simply; the minorities knows better!

And I despise my white race!
Because you think you are someone. You, yes we, are rapers, killers of the worst sort. Just read the history, how many times did the guys, the black guys come to your Sommerset-house and raped your/our wifes?
And how many times did we not go south and “make them blond/less black?”

Summa Summarum:
Jackmannii I do know You do not love me, but let’s try to get along.

Henry, one of us is clearly a moron because I don’t have a fucking clue what you’re on about.

HenryB’s breath smells like Bj0rn-food.

Kyla
This is meant like a joke.
If I and Chumsky did buy your neighbouring houses…

And If You are not a racists, like 99,99% of us others, I can only ask for your forgivness.

Henry

I think perhaps Henry needs to lie down with a cool cloth over his eyes for a few minutes.

Dead Badger Nice that You admit it.

But usually You post a post, that have mor than one or two sentences. Do not join that club, they have the bad habit to not even master their second sentence.
As seen some post above.

Henry B, as others have pointed out, altering a person’s words in a quote is a violation of board rules. You may explain why you did so, or you may quit posting on this message board. I await your email. You have 36 hours to email me before you are banned.

For the Straight Dope

Ok, who ran the icelandic guy through the confuserizer?

Lynn Bodoni
Can I not answer right here, why the E-mail.

I will begin to write just now, and post the answer within an hour or so, depending on the Russian/American links.
OK?

Henry
If this is not approppriate, I will open my link within an hour or so, depending…, not on the US side, but…
and I will answer.

OK?

I, apologise. For the future I will make most efforts to be writing more than one sentence but, I hope you realise that not all can hope to obtain such unusually analfabetic syntax as yourself without, many of the months of trying. Back to raping and pillaging for me. Are you having the wife?

Thanks Lynn, for taking a step toward finally shaking some sense into this yoyo.

Henry B, will you please please please find someone who can translate these posts to Finnish for you? Every thread you post to turns into a comedy of errors, and it’s BECAUSE YOU DON’T FUCKING UNDERSTAND ENGLISH.

At least ten posters carefully explained to you why IAS was banned, so why do you persist in posting these nonsensical rebuttals?

[Chris Rock, loudly]

DO YOUUUUUU UNDERSTAND THE WORDS THAT ARE COMING OUT OF MY MOUTH?

[Chris Rock]

Wasn’t that Chris Tucker?

Heh, I believe that was Chris Tucker, not Chris Rock, in ‘Rush Hour’, you closet racist! :wink:

Now pardon me if this is inappropriate or something that is also against the rules, but I just want to be clear about something. Is the rule in question is the one that I have quoted below:

I stand corrected. I’ll head back to my closet now.

Lynn Bodoni
So You are from Texas. Obviously I should have a very good defense. I have not.

  1. I apologize if I have, by taking some other texts, into an appropriate use. My apologies to the original writer.

  2. I thought that everything we write here is more or less, not copyrighted, because some Chicago-paper can use it as it wish. That is the main reason I only publish here my thoughts, not my publishing material.

  3. I could have used only the most inflammatory texts, but is that right, because the original writer, as I understand it, want to give us a whole picture.
    I did not use the text to personal benefit, as You can see from the answers of the common.

  4. Furthermore; I have in reality been reading the rules of this board quite “letter by letter’, but I have to admit, reading in the sense; “What is my rights?”

Anyhow, if I have been against/crossed Your rules, I hope that You can take the Good Rule as Your Judging Rule: “You can make a mistake once, but doing the same mistake twice, will show that You are a fool.”
Anyhow, I am very much for copyrights, and I ask forgiveness for not going by the book in this case. I am sorry. But only about what I have done (or wronged).

I still hope that our combat companion from 73 BC, can come back.
And why not, if we have learned a lesson today, do You just throw the lesson away?
Or what do You think?
And what does the original writer think?

I would appreciate Your answers.

Thank You for reading.

P.S. If there is some unanswered questions, I will haste to answer them, when You put them to my knowledge.

Henry

Anyhow, may I keep my beliefs that the middle class is just …, just … stupid? And that my abandoned friend from 73 BC, and Chumsky is much over average?

Henry B., some friendly advice: Perhaps you should not get involved in serious debates here until your English skills improve dramatically. I’m not trying to insult you, here: I know how hard it is to acquire a second language. That’s why I only speak the one. But you really don’t have the skills in English to make any sort of a coherent argument, at least if this thread is anything to go by. Maybe you should stick to MPSIMS for a year or so. Wait until you have the tools necessary to express yourself before you go broaching sensitive subjects, like race, on these boards. Because right now, I have no idea what point you’re trying to make, and am left with a vague impression that you’re anti-semitic. But I might be mis-reading you as badly as you seem to have mis-read Scylla.
