    Well, apparently if you get drunk - I mean, REALLY soused - you'd best have some friends around to tape your mouth shut and tape you to a chair so that you can't move. You don't want to do ANYTHING to cause anyone to feel bad.

        Really? What don't you get?
        I thought it was pretty self-explanatory.

          Yes it does. If you get heated and cuss that's one thing but if you get heated and then use racial slurs it kind of shows you are a racist.

            I hear you, but i think it's not so black and white. If you get in a verbal altercation with an obese person and you call him a "fat m.f.", you are really just trying to dig at them as viscerally as possible. Doesn't mean you have a hatred directed at obese people. Now substitute "fat" with other words. When things get heated, people chose words to hurt, doesn't mean they necessarily believe in them. Look at when Jonah Hill called that paparazzo "that word". It was more of an angerism than anything else, i think. I'm not defending hurtful words, just trying to understand our use of them.

                That depends on how a you define a "racist". What really matters though is the evidence aspect of it. If someone accuses you of being a racist and brings up all these evidence of you spewing racial slurs, it's kinda difficult to refute the argument.

                  Only brainwashed zombies go around calling people "racists."

                    Yeah .. Racist has no meaning anymore.. everybody and no body is racist .. It's a primative view used by idiots to justify hypersensitivity born out of people being massively insecure and having bad circumstances.

                      Or calling people "racist" is a victim card used to shame people into giving you what you want.

                            If you go on an anti-Semitic rant just because an officer refused to let you drive away drunk and you yell at your wife that she will get "raped by a pack of ni****s" without the n-word needing to be brought up at all, yeah, I'd say there is a racist bone or two in such a person's body.
