He appears to have changed the title, which originally said "Black guy steals iPad....", even though the person's race has absolutely nothing to do with the story. I guess the usual gang of right-wing creeps thought that was hilarious, and made jokes about it. Worst of all, I posted a comment saying I don't think racism is funny, and he DELETED it.

Well, congratulations. You got a rise out of me, and I'm sure that was your intention. Hate speech is where I draw the line. It offends me.

Patrick, are you still sure you want trolls moderating their own threads?

Reasonability is subjective.

Just like Gun Control.

Maybe. I am a believer in dialectics. So I do think history has been, will be, and should be driven forward by opposing forces.

So he is telling ME what I can or cannot say.

You are saying whatever you want now, aren't you?

Homeboy says

That is possibly the most idiotic thing I have ever heard.

I've lost count how many things are "the most idiotic" you've ever heard. Comments like that are why your trollishness score is so high. You can't just disagree with people, you need to bait them and pick fights.

Homeboy says

It is NOT reasonable to assume all black people are thieves.

Who assumed that? Who said anything like that? You seem to be shadowboxing with phantoms again, trying to bait people into becoming the phantoms in your mind.

Obviously the Troll zzyzzx

Obviously...zzyzzx

If it's "obvious," can you please link to the quotes to support the accusation?

90   121212   2013 Jan 6, 5:28am  

why? is this my thread? your welcome to read for yourself.

it is obvious, very obvious.

the quote was the title of the particular thread until it was changed

this is no isolated incidence, it's an on going attack on woman and race

91   Peter P   2013 Jan 6, 5:32am  

Homeboy says

True. But his title referred to just one case. Only a racist would generalize that to include all black people.

Frankly I don't like that title at all. His subsequent revisions were arguably worse.

Can you please supply any quote about "all black people" from anyone other than Homeboy's quote above?

The poster was the generalizer and this is not an dissociated incidence, their is a pattern

Perhaps. I do keep a mental account of what other people say. I form opinions about them using this "account."

However, free speech is important to me. Calling out "offensive" speech is not always the best way to remove prejudice. People know.

The trolls are just trying to screw with you now. They think it's funny to defend racism, and they get excited if they can make you mad about it. Just children playing their childish games.

96   Peter P   2013 Jan 6, 5:49am  

There is a difference between defending X and defending someone/something from being accused of X. And that is also different from joking about X.

For example, criminal defense lawyers are NOT all bad people.

They CERTAINLY do not defend a murder suspect by defending the act of murder.

97   Homeboy   2013 Jan 6, 5:54am  

Says the troll.

Do you think you're going to change Patrick's stance on people who can post? He allows you to post, even though your comments are offensive at times. Should he ban you?

When did I say anyone should be banned?

elliemae is one of the nicest people on PatNet, so baiting her into a fight is a sign of trollishness.

I didn't say she wasn't nice. I was just surprised that she didn't stand up for what's right. I didn't bait anyone. She baited me, if anything.

Holy shit! I agreed with you - if indeed the headline said "black guy..." it certainly had the appearance of being racist. Then I moved on, something which you have shown your inablity to do.

You've stated that you believe it to have been racist. Ad nauseum. We get it. Now you're just being redundant.

The most offensive comment on this thread is the following:

"one of????" Only one of? I wasn't aware that there was a competition, and therefore I didn't get a chance to bring on the "nice." I can do better.

Unless I'm having a discussion with someone who lacks the ability to communicate effectively (including spelling & grammar that detracts from the message), or if they're just plain dicks.

Just sayin'.

Call it Crazy says

If they can't handle the heat, they need to stay away from their keyboard!!

Or they can start a thread on puppies.

Yes, and please create a new "Puppies" category for it when you start that thread:

http://patrick.net/edit.php

Seriously, I hope people will take advantage of the ability to create new categories as well as new threads.

102   Peter P   2013 Jan 6, 7:37am

Oh no, soon there will be as many categories as posts.

103   Peter P   2013 Jan 6, 7:38am  

Rethinking what I said, even if someone starts a puppies thread, kittens will invade the conversation. Then the traditional cat-fight will ensue.

104   elliemae   2013 Jan 6, 8:56am  

Did I blink & miss something? 17,382 comments? WTF?

Just curious how many of 'em were about puppies, fyi

I have cats.

106   Peter P   2013 Jan 6, 9:17am  

I am too lazy to start my own threads though. Either that or I don't have a good-looking avatar.

My threads looks bland and anti-sexy.

No, you didn't "move on"; you made a joke about trivial "PC" things, as if to imply that racism is a trivial matter, like writing "he" when you don't know the gender of the person you're referring to. Those things aren't comparable.

elliemae says

WTF are you talking about? I'm not the one who keeps bringing it up. Show me one post of mine in this thread, other than the first one, that isn't a response to someone ELSE rehashing the subject. If it's bothering you that much, just stop posting. Sheesh, it's not rocket science.

Sometimes, when you have a thought, you don't necessarily have to type it on your keyboard.

Peter P looked at the screen and contemplated for a second. It was a night in January and it was raining outside. He stared at the keyboard, but his mind was blank.

Homeboy that's very typical of the poster elliemae. The poster is an asshole and no different from zzyzzx or cpt idiot or rukie

That is wrong to say that.
