B/c I have seen firsthand what children of biracial couples go through. I have a cousin who was the product of a black/white relationship. Mom is white..dad is black..she is black. She is now 9 years old. As she gets older..she gets more and more confused about that. Asks more and more questions about why and stuff like that. She gets heckled, poked fun of, and teased about things constantly b/c she has 'different' parents, etc. If that makes me a racist..so be it. Say what you want..I don't care..b/c I know that I'm far from it.Gblock wrote: go cheifs i saw that you said that you would be upset with it.....then i asked you why?
That has a lot to do with it to many, many people. It is part of my reasons...although...it is just a very small part of my reasons as to why I'm against it.Upper90 wrote: Is it just some kind of sense of "racial purity"?
Adoption of a child of another race? I guess I'm against that too. What reasons would you have if your white or black to want to adopt another child of a different race? I don't understand it. There is plenty of kids available of your own race that need adopted. I mean..I'm not going to hold it against you or anything..but I personally wouldn't do it.Upper90 wrote: but, let me ask....in that respect, do you also not agree with adoption?
Dude, it's a fucking child that needs a home. As for biracial marriages...it's a fucking human being marrying a human being. I think your statements come across as ignorant and racist. You're trying to mask it, but it's not working. Not being a dick, it's just my opinion based on your comments.GoChiefs wrote: Adoption of a child of another race? I guess I'm against that too.

And your right..and there are many other children in that some adoption agency of the same race that needs a fucking home too. My statements are my thoughts..whether you think they are ignorant and racist is up to you. I thought I made it clear that I didn't care? I'm not 'masking' anything. If I was going to try to 'mask' my comments..I obviously wouldn't have commented on it in the first place. My reasons why were asked..and I told my reasons. You can accept them or not..again..I don't give a shit.SnotBubbles wrote: Dude, it's a fucking child that needs a home. As for biracial marriages...it's a fucking human being marrying a human being.

I agree to an extent. I don't feel like this comments are "racist" per-say but, like you said, ignorant.SnotBubbles wrote:Dude, it's a fucking child that needs a home.

Agree.
Did you actually type these words? This is the most ignorant thing I have EVER read on the Huddle, and I have read a lot of shit on this site.

Actually, it does. Pretty black and white in clarity, no pun intended.GoChiefs wrote:Bullshit..I don't believe in interracial dating/marriage. I would be upset if my son started dating another person of another race. That's my choice. That doesn't make me a racist though.
And I'm happy for ya! Glad it worked out for you.Gblock wrote: being bi-racial worked out great for me.....
I can give you all the examples in the world..and it's not going to change a thing.Gblock wrote: i just dont think one example should be the basis for something like that, but it your choice....
In your opinion..it's a narrow view..in my opinion..there isn't anything wrong with my views/opinions on it. Many will agree with you..many will agree with me. That's how it goes. Plus..I've already got a wonderful wife and son..so I'm not gonna miss out on anything special b/c I don't agree with interracial relationships.Gblock wrote: with that narrow view you could miss out on something very special.
I agree. When we were hiring a few years ago, I was in a managers office when she went through a stack of resumes and took out all the foriegn sounding names. She asked if I could imagine working with someone who couldn't speak english. They ended up hiring a dumb ass white guy who couldn't speak english.Gblock wrote: this does answer the question to some of those who question why blacks may get extra help because there are lots of people who do lots of hiring who may feel they only want to work with people of their own race, or that bringing in someone different could somehow mess things up...they dont feel racist they just want to do what's best for the "company" or such. im sure that those might not be the best examples but they can always find an excuse and that is their perogative just like yours but i try to promote diversity and feel that the more views and perspectives in business and family only makes things that much better. with that narrow view you could miss out on something very special.
lets not be too hard on him he was asked and gave his opinion...likely by his avatar this is how he was taught and he doesnt know any different i know lots of people like this who probably have never spent any signifigant time around people other races and dont have friends of another race..eventually he will meet someone of another race and will have to soften his stance because no way you can say what your saying and have any black or whatever type of friends. probably just goes off of tv or whateverBigAppleBuckeye wrote:Did you actually type these words?

I am fully aware that I witnessed a MUCH larger degree of racism during my tenure at Ohio State compared to here in NYC, but wow, this may take the cake.

LOL..now who's being ignorant? B/c I like NASCAR I'm 'racist'? This isn't 1975. NASCAR isn't dedicated to the South anymore.

Yes, a racist from Massillon, Ohio is telling me to get out more. That is rich.

Be a racist, that is fine, but OWN it. Don't say you are not one. You are in denial, and its sad.
I chose to move to Massillon..around black people. Why the hell would I do that if I'm racist? If I was a racist..I WOULD HAVE FUCKING SAID I'M A RACIST. Surely people would know by now on here that I'm pretty blunt and to the point. I don't hold anything back. If I hated blacks, mexicans, asians, whatever else..I would say it.
i was joking about the nascar but as far as black friendshave one of them email me [email protected] dont believe youGoChiefs wrote: 'racist'? This isn't 1975. NASCAR isn't dedicated to the South anymore. Contrary to what many believe..it's no longer just a 'redneck' thing.
