cityspud Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) I think it's wrong of you to say it's just white people being racist on the whole of GTA Online... I've heard racial slurs aimed at white people from time to time. It happens everywhere, more so on the internet and online gaming... you know, places where it isn't face to face. Brush it off as it is only words after all. If they were outside your doorstep shouting you out then that's when you should be worried lol but it's just usually kids and it's something for them to shout down a mic at you as it makes them feel like a big man. How do they know your ethnicity anyway? Edited October 28, 2013 by cityspud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicPunk Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) Another point made was what about all the black, hispanic, asian, etc., racists that are racist towards whites. I guess they're ok? haha I've came across loads of them. Why not talk about racism in general instead of just against one single race? Oh that's right!!! it doesn't fit your anti-white agenda!!!

Ola441 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 AtomicPunk why don't you also go and yell bomb in the airport, see if free speech keeps you from getting arrested and taken to court and finally jailed. Just saying "bomb" is not illegal or terrorism. Calling someone a racist name is just an opinion and nothing more. Can't believe you cannot disern between the two. lol Saying bomb is illegal in a public, the same way you will be arrested for being racist in public. If you don't believe me .. Try it. You think the country is so free... Test the limit is of that freedom and see what happens. Show me where in the law books or the constitution where it is illegal to say the word bomb. Link it right now. You cannot...I REPEAT you cannot be arrested in amerika for calling someone a racist name. They may, however, arrest you for disorderly conduct. As long as there are no threats it is not a hate crime. You are very ignorant to the law, which is no excuse, BTW;) I cba to browse through the constitution. But read this article about hate speech:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hate_speech#United_States hahahalol Wikipedia? No. Thats not a link to the government or laws of america. hahaCalling someone a racist name IS NOT hate speech or illegal. Also, show me where the word bomb is illegal and forbidden to say in amerika. LinkI can't be bothered to give you a constitution quote. That's all I can. Read my above post, I can't find any legal documents but I have a new story http://www.complex.com/city-guide/2013/04/this-is-why-you-never-say-bomb-in-an-airport At the end of the day, this is all I can give you but it's not hard to get confirmation just test the land of the free and see how little you can get away with.

If you got racially abused by a black man, are you likely to post a thread addressing general racism in the world? He is not the spokesperson for gta o or black people. He is just talking about his experience and you are intent on making this his fault. Edited October 28, 2013 by Ola441 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foreigners hate it. That little piece of paper is my bomb in most cases. All amerikans should be well versed with the constitution, but if you know anything about the dumbed-down school systems, they do not make sure that all the kids know it by heart for a reason. Most of the racism that I see is mostly black against white or mexican against white. It's true.

So what page of the constitution will you quote when you are fined the amount you cost the company for the evacuation , plane delays you will definitely cause when you have finished saying bomb in the airport? Or when you hurl racial slurs at someone and they sue your for defamation, hate speech or even when they claim provocation after beating you up, stabbing or shooting you? What will you claim?

I SHADOWFOX I Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 OP your a racist yourself. I'm white but I work with a ton of people of color, and you know what? All of us say ni**a, to each other and no one and I mean NO ONE IS OFFENDED. If you hate it so much mute them, but don't come to the forum and start crying about it, making yourself look just as bad if not worse. They are saying ni**a bc it's in our culture now, it's not so much racism, as it is just a slang term now, unless of corse you say something along the lines of "you god d**m ni**er, you piece of black sh*t" then yes that IS racist and I could understand your feelings then. But having little kids who grew up listening/watching rap, comodies, movies, ect. that is filled with the word, is most likely why they don't realize how demeaning it can be, since you know, it's tossed around like a football now a days, so what your saying is not racist! But on the other hand, typing out hate fuled paragraphs bashing another race simply because in a video game you heard something that you think is racist, is in fact racist.

These people are trying to get a rise out of you, make you f*ck up. They are playing a videogame, not spreading some racial agenda.

People hiding behind technicalities like "Freedom of speech bro!" in defense of racial B.S. that is coming from young turds who will eventually become future leaders and teachers in society. These are the biggest cowards of ALL. Yeah, it's easy to be an internet tough guy while playing online with a bunch of strangers you will never meet face to face.

I'm sick of people saying "you're insensitive for hating racism" or "this is the internet" -- welp, if so, then I'll continue to complain about your honkey ass sentiment. "Honkey ass" Oh the irony. And you think you have a right to complain about racism? Also, the statement in red is 100 percent false, as evident by the fact that you just used a racist term, and the statement in general should be wrong anyway. Don't try to defend yourself. "Honkey ass" IS racist and you KNOW it. Two wrongs don't make a right, and that is what bothers me most about this issue. Not the ignorant racist people, not the fighting, it's the hypocrisy that bothers me most. I'm tired of people like YOU thinking that just because we are minorities (I assume you are) we somehow have a right to be racist or say racist things against white people and get away with it. We don't. As I mentioned previously, I am hispanic, but I certainly don't think that it is in ANY way right to deny someone the right to speak their minds, a right that has been fought over and a right that men have died for. I can understand "reasonable" limitations yes, but if say, for example, some racist organization wants to hold a public event where they try to argue that all Mexicans should be deported, I am not going to try to deny them that right. Not only would it go against the first amendment, I believe it would be morally wrong to deny people the right to speak their mind, regardless of how insulting or offensive their words are. I'm sorry you don't feel the same way. I think you are just mentally weak and need to get over it. Words are words. I laugh whenever I hear something racist, because I know the person who said it has just done me a favor by showing me that they have nothing of interest or relevance to say, and I should just ignore them.

73duster Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) It is not against the law to be racist. Making racist comments IS protected by the constitution under Freedom of speech. However, the OP never tried to say that any law was being broken. He was simply pointing out a very real issue that isn't simply relegated to GTA Online. All online communities are flooded with hatred and ignorance, with a large part of that coming from OUTSIDE of America. I can't tell you how many of the racial slurs are coming from foreign voices. The bottom line is, the internet is a magnet for racist idiots and cowards who feel safe because they are anonymous. I have been in MANY rooms filled with racists who ruin the experience for many others. Why are people so negative towards the OP's comments, when they are so accurate? Having the freedom to make racist statements doesn't change the fact that it is despicable behavior. It doesn't surprise me that the loudest chants about freedom of speech come from ignorant people promoting racism.

SAUL_SILVER Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Problem with the world today is, too many people cry over nothing. Seriously, not even a cool nigga gives a sh*t if a white boy calls him a nigga. Doesn't make you racist or anything. If however, a black man wants to cry about it, then i'll simply class a black man calling me a dickhead racist. Don't really see why a black man can insult a white boy, but a white boy cannot insult a black man. Also makes them look silly to hide behind something as stupid as "you're racist". No mother f*cker, i'm not racist, i simply watch too much MTV for f*cks sake. Stick your head down the toilet and keep flushing. 73duster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
