    Probably because as he stated in his post, he attempted to say something there and couldn't as he was blocked/banned.

    And yet that has never stopped people here creating a new account to ask, or emailing the site admins.

        To be fair, somehow you were popular enough for us to petition for your ban to be lifted. ;P It's a puzzler.

          As a complete outsider to Leftpondian racial malarkey, this is yet another USian racial knee-jerk that I don't get. If that's what people call him (and I presume they do, as it doesn't look like a name that one would pull out of the air), then it's not a racial slur; it's a nickname. You're all weird, over there, with your taboo-word selection; e.g. "Chinaman" is another one that I've never understood. As an Englishman -- i.e. someone who comes from south of the Scotsmen, north of the Frenchmen, east of the Irishmen, and West of the Dutchmen -- I honestly don't see what the problem is with that word. The formula seems to be that if you treat a people badly, it's their name that becomes the dirty word. That's kinda f'd up, y'know? And since you're running out of race names that can be used in polite society, maybe it's "American" that should be excluded. Mind you, a pal of mine who worked at a UK car factory (making the mini metro -- oh, the shame of it!) told me that he was once chastised for saying that the colour of a seat-belt was "brown", rather than "chocolate", because that was the flavour-of-the-month you're-racist-if-you-use-it word, so we're not that much better in Rightpond.

          Oh, I totally agree. I've been going to a couple race relationship meetings here in the area to learn more about the different perspectives blacks/African Americans/people of color (they themselves can't seem to figure it out) have, and it really is quite astounding actually. There's the psychological issues, but then there's hard objective accounts of prejudiced treatment by "whites." However, the thing that really is an eye opener is what I saw as an unconscious reverse discrimination / self-victimization that perpetuates the problem rather than solving it. Like I said, it's eye opening to even minimally start to comprehend the perspective of someone who considers themselves a minority and also has a history of being brutalized by another race. Marc
