Anyone that was offended then or now by this needs to get a hobby.  I suggest woodworking, or day drinking.

Honestly, she’s gorgeous. It’s a shame that in todays society that can’t call attention to it.

Brent the ultimate troll

Yeah except if you leave the Southern Baptist church, the worst you can expect to get is a few passive-aggressive postcards inviting you back to services. Maybe some guilt tripping from your mom or other relatives. Scientology employs people to actively interfere with your life, endanger your job, trash your…

Exactly.  I stopped going to my mom’s Episcopal church ages ago and the only result is a slightly sad mom.  

Because I live in Maryland, I refuse to acknowledge any current Duke player as a living human being. If this kid goes on to play for Boston, he may become the greatest player I have never seen because ghosts don’t exist.

As a Maryland season ticket holder (haven’t missed a home game in almost 20 years), these reports make me sick to my stomach. Unless he can somehow prove that these reports are a compete fabrication (they arent), durkin and the strength and conditioning staff should be out on their ass. I get that this macho bullshit…

No it isnt, asshole. Its defending her words rather than admitting that this bitch is clearly hate mongering. 

Dante, I think you expect too much of keyboard warriors like hummus. They have a grievance and their opinion simply matters more than yours does. Moreover, since you disagree with hummus, you are by definition a racist and xenophobe.

LOL because he called out your ignorance? Run along, snowflake!

around here if you’re not an angry white people hating ignorant loser fuckhead you’re ripe for a pounding. most of these dickheads only know “fuck white people and fuck trump” but somehow they occupy the “moral highroad”. they have no interest in logical debate.  if you accept the “explanation” they are citing then…

The authors personal opinion of why it is not racist is there, but agreeing with that does not make it excusable as not racist. If one has never heard of this lady or is not familiar with her works the comments do seem racist. Part of the definition out there for racism “prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism…

No, it wasn’t, fuckface. It went and hand-waved it because white people have historically oppressed other races in the past.

Where? I see it waved away as nothing in the article. That’s not an explanation.

An attempt at an explanation is not an explanation. Again, imagine if she were a white man saying the same exact things about people of any other race. Would Splinter be just as defensive?

How does calling someone fuckface not get you banned? Oh I get it there’s a double standard depending on what team you’re on kinda like jokes about race.

It’s excused in the article, not the same as explained and certainly not justified to all. One can easily imagine plenty of white people who would call that entire paragraph a perfect example of why they voted Trump, or decry the war on white men, or Christmas, middle age men, etc.

Cold Hummus is what’s wrong with the world. 

which is a different thing that is not racism

It’s not even August and I already wish the NFL would go the fuck away.
