Re: Offensive Photo?

I saw the pic in that thread, but I figured the WTF
Nigger stuff was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
over the line. I couldn't believe you left it up.
Even if it's not intended to be hateful towards you,
letting a big nigger script in a photo stay around has
got to be bad policy.

It amazes me that old dirty Clarkmeister would get so worked up over a single word yet never miss the opportunity to rate a womans ass. If you are removing the post for low content fine. If you are removing the post for being offensive then maybe we should burn some tom sawyer and remove all pictures showing women as sex objects while we are at it too. People really need to adjust their radar as to what should and should not be offensive.
I wrote a different and much more blunt post making my point ever so clearer but I decided it was too much. :-P
Oh well.... I hope this works.

The problem with adjusting our radar is that what is offensive to some, may not be offensive to others. If it said "WTF Kyke", I would personally be more offended by that than if it said, "WTF C-nt". Mainly, because I know what it is like to be called "Kyke" while getting punched by some skinheads, but have no idea what it would be like to be beaten up for being a women and being called "c-nt". But, I can definitely empathize with women, african-americans, etc... And I think it is fairly obvious what is offensive and what isn't.
As far as "dirty old Clarkmeister", why can't he be right about one thing, and wrong about another? He may not think the objectifying of women is wrong, but think saying "nigger" is.
