Bull S%@& Racial incident mars high school game

[OzmO]

To clarify:

My stance on the Koran book burning thing:

-  those are 13th century primitives down there.
-  Its more than obvious that burning those books could have potentially cause a big problem
-  the person responsible should be fired.

My stance on this issue:

-  What the boys said wasn't racist, it was nartionalistic
-  People should take responsibility on how they react to things
-  when we are too sensitive about what something might mean we will put ourselves in  a position where we cant say anything

The part I bold is my original point. I'll grant you the 2nd part.

Who needs to take responsibility for how they reacted? I don't agree with the question. I think you are asking whether it was a valid inference to make (considering context, the fact that it was said despite logical meaning of what was said, etc) that the action (shouting USA USA) was racist. Or to put it in a different way, Was whoever construed it as racist justified in construing it as racist?. Is that what you are asking? If It is, then my answer is "I don't know, I wasn't there, it depends, but we cannot go on logical meaning of the words alone.

we agree somewhat.

 

Was whoever construed it as racist justified in construing it as racist?  My answer is no.  And that's one of the very big problems in this country, things like that.

You kept saying that the reaction of the savages should have been taken into account, despite the fact that soldiers factually dd nothing wrong correct?  

What's the difference here?  

The basket ball team wouldn't have suicide bombed the other teams school.

 I think it was good to get at the root differences in each others points.

Reported to FBI for terrorism.

Reason -
1. trying to blend in with "USA shirt"
2. paying with cash
3. going to non-mainstream establishment in order to stay off "the grid"
4. Associating with possible illegals, also possible terrorists for operating a food establishment that only uses cash
5. Pretending to be patriotic to throw others off.
