So why post a racist quote in a signature? makes perfect sense? Go start another race bait thread.

Because if racist comments are going to be allowed to sit in a thread and not removed (inaction is the as condoning) then why not post it as a sig line so the original poster can take full credit for his post, jetboat175 made the original statement that made it to my sig line....

You can always report offensive posts...I know it sure helps the mods out considering the hundreds if not thousands of posts they have to go through daily. Seems more productive than bashing the volunteer mods

Perhaps a "Flag as Innapropraite" link should be inserted at the bottom right of each post?

it's a racist oppinion,

enough with this stuff,...

whether it be first nations, homosexuals, or other minority groups, sometimes this place shines and no one takes a stand... and when you do, you quickly find out, that you too are the minority.

PS,.. I'll put a pic in my pics thread of Khadar in a little bit. He is one of those rag head guys you speak of. We were coyote hunting yesterday, ... and I'd choose his company over a that of a few around here, any day of the week.

I understood ( or at least had an inkling ) as to what you were gettin at there Arn. I thought the post that you quoted with numerous spelling mistakes touting themselves as somehow superior to another person of another skin tone/religion/creed was chock full of irony. I opted to not participate in that thread because it was circling the bowl from inception.

Some might consider this bashing. I know I sure would.

Take it easy on the mods, it's a tireless job. Help them out by reporting offensive posts......rathing than adding to their workload with a thread like this....

it's always easy to pile on when you are in the majority,and easier to say stuff on the internet than to a person's face,I agree there is no need for people to come here and openly and flaunt there racism/sexism/homophobia etc,my grandfather and many of your's fought for a world where this stuff is not acceptable he always told me they bleed the same color as you and breathe the same air as you,so you are no better or worse than anybody else that walks the earth with you.

Wow....I cant beleive I wasted 45 seconds reading this.

If someone was stupid enough to post an offensive quote in a signature line, I'd say they shouldnt be shocked if they get a warning for it. Jeez...I'm constantly amazed...
