i didn't make the picture, chief.

i will use the cat picture from now on, because cats seem less likely to get butt-hurt.

good lord, i hope no one ever represents white folks in a negative manner! i may get offended as well.

Butthurt? Maybe you should just send me a picture of YOU, and I'll write "RAPIST" in huge letters on it, and see if you have a problem with it.

they say i have a rapist wit.

was that a picture of YOU? if it was, i is sorry. if you put "RAPIST" on a picture of a random white guy, i don't think i would assume all white dudes are rapists. lighten up, Francis.

The guy just joined this month so let's try not to make him feel isolated k? I think he handled it pretty well. Black people are still kinda struggling with an image problem so I can see why he'd be offended.

I do think however people need to get over silly things such as this. That picture has been to the end of the internet and back. Nobody thinks what Mr. Kelvin is implying here. Most people are sensible.
Idiotic, sure, but also sensible.

I am... but for my entire life I have been raised to be neutral to all colors. I have also grown up where most of my friends are of different "races" (quotes because there is no actual physical evidence of race and it is merely a social construction to further seperate the human species). So with that said, I understand what you are saying and why... but I am SURE that was not his intention and I am asking nicely that you not take offense.

This question alone, promotes racism.

Our color does not matter.

What matters is who we are, and how we act upon our values.

My values tell me a big picture of a black guy with huge letters that say 'rapist' promote bad stereotypes and negative connotations, and my values say I should say how I feel about such pictures, and why I feel they are wrong.

It does not say "Rapist", and rsvx put it well what color we are does not matter. The fact that you grouped "us" together as possibly all white kinda makes you the one who is segregating. I am not saying that harshly at all but just thought that I would point that out.
