... I am all for a good joke or two; even those at my expense, however, isn't the listing of "white guy" and "white chicks" in the above context - just continuing to perpetuate a negative (and patently false) stereotype of Blacks...?
... nope, more like ad hominem; and taking the actions of one to be representative of all.
Sort of like what the "anti's" try to do to all gun-owners....
.. the Tiger situation (as are ALL adultery situations) are moreso about something different (it has color, just not black or white... more of a pinkish hue).

That's what the dog was thinking in GS78's 'Courage' post... right before his stocks tanked!
Now is the time for all good men to get off their rusty dustys...

No more catchy slogans for me...I am simply fed up...4...four...4...2+2...
I posted a joke that one COULD take as racist IF they don't really read the joke and realize that it was making fun of racists. Sometimes a joke is a joke. We have grown too thin skinned.

I was SPANKED, never whipped or beat. I see nothing wrong with it. There are limits. Again, another case of extremes. Loose the extremes and you will find what works in the middle. For any rule/law to work there have to be REAL consequences or else they are nothing more than worthless words.
