They're already looking for reasons to ignore us; let's not make it easy for them. Some people might even try to dilute our message by polluting the board with stuff like that. It probably is censorship on my part. The First Amendment only says that government can't shut you up. It doesn't protect you from someone like me setting rules for guests on my own discussion board. If you want to describe African-Americans as "darkies", we don't want you here and I'm looking for the "delete" button. If you have any other racist friends, please tell them that we proudly practice censorship here, and don't want their garbage. Be sure to scream "Censorship!!!" at the top of your lungs to be sure they really get the message. |
So if a black person comes into our branch and f-bombs us and causes all kinds of grief, I should describe the event non-race specific? Or just use terms such as African-American?
