You completed it. Id say whether it was yours "first" or not is rather immaterial.For the record this was not my idea,
What do you call a black man in the cockpit of an airplane?
The pilot!
What do you call a black man in the white house?
The president of the United States!
FYI, "my best friend is black" is no proof that you're not racist. Just saying.
Im just as offended that you found it funny.True I agree. When people say i'm not racist they typically are. Using the friend defense is prettly week. I laugh at all racial jokes these are things our circle of friends do as jokes.
I don't mean to breach political corectness or spark hate speach. The stuff on the sight was just funny from a universal standpoint.

I didnt even crack a wry smile.![]()

Well, no that doesn't necessarily follow. Racisim is in what they actually do, not in a disclaimer or lack of one. The disclaimer can be true. Apples and kumquats.
Ok internet Socrates.The interesting thing is that we are who we are behind these Ipad's and laptops. Who we are can be anybody. That anybody background and anybody experience can make us look at things differently than others.

If you troll on the internet as a racist, you're still a racist. Just one whos too cowardly to live what he preaches.
And "part time" racism or playing a role online is stupid as well.
Adults have better things to do with their time.
I follow you. I think sometimes though its simply to make the person look more multicultural which is part of the definition of the new "modern"Interesting and although I agree saying "I'm not racist" doesn't mean for sure they are, sometimes if they stress it over and over it can make you wonder.
Something I've noticed a lot of people do-and many I would not consider racist- is they will say something like,
"So I have this black friend" Or "so bill, who's black..." or it could be Asian or hispanic. or even "a gay friend"
I never understood needing to add the adjective to friend.
I don;t have black or Asian or Hispanic or female or lesbian or gay friends.
I just have friends.
This makes me think of something that happened a year or so ago. I never considered my mother racist. But last year we were talking about things from a few years ago and I brought up the woman I had dated before I met my wife.
I said her name and my mother rolls her eyes and said "Wasn't that that black girl you were seeing?" and with utter disdain, guess you never know sometimes.

If anything i'm glad that I got the response that I did. I feel increasingly more compfortable in the AH than I did in the GB.
I'm not making exuses to get out of what I did. I'm glad I got called out on it.
Not a fan of the Klan by any means and think there is very little funny about them.
But I saw this once and just thought it was pretty funny.

Might just be me though.
I find your prejudice against stupid threads to be astounding.Maybe we could just let this thread sink into the mire as not having been the best idea(?)
