    No its not. Do you remeber when Kramer from Seinfield was doing a stand up, and he made racist jokes and racial slurs.


    http://youtube.com/watch?v=QgmCBKPHnSY

    what did he get? a slap on the wrist :/ he lost alot of respect, and he publicly apologized on David Letterman, but legally did anything happen?

    This was a big deal when it happened though.

    A few weeks later Kamau Kambon a black activist and author says this on C-span, nothing is thought of it.

    Reverse racism is nothing :/

    Wow, racism is still around... if racism were a person, how many of you (by a show of hands) would whoop some a** right now? I mean really, shyt is ridiculous how racism still exists, after years of getting along and everything.

    Mods can not see any rep comments other than the ones left for them by others.

    Often the language used in rep comments is not the type language a member would use in front of his/her mother, I would hope.

    Sad thing is that a lot of their mothers use the same language.

    Racism is a sad part of life that can only be stamped out by educating people. DP can ban the person but it will not stop them or their views. Hate against anyone is going to continue and to be all honest, do any of you really care what someone like that says about you? Words only hurt if they come from someone who really matters and it is clear by the op's title that he is laughing because truth is this person really does not matter.

    yeah but Kramer didn't point out a black dude in the audience and called him that word.

    Indeed.

    The language I have received in red reps by the Bush Loving posse is rife to say the least, but I always hit back with similar language.

    The rep system is so manifestly flawed people should not pay much attention to it IMO.
