I would say calling people "porch monkeys" = pretty [censored] racist. Again, I'm allowing for the possibility that that was a brilliantly executed gag, but I have trouble giving you that kind of credit.

if you have a lot of time on your hands, read all my replies. that one post was clearly racist, no matter how you interpret it.

now read the other posts and you'll see from a certain point of view, they might be racist but from many other POVs they are not. my other posts recognize that there are in fact differences between all the various races of people in this country/world. to say that there aren't differences is a statement of pure ignorance. I was simply trying to defend the point that it is a bad idea to address black people as 'botha' as opposed to something like "sir or mister". read my original post for further info on that. I was also calling people out who claimed to address all strangers, both black and white as 'brotha', telling them they were either lying or just being stupid. finally, i wanted people to realize that some people will be insulted if they are called 'brotha'
