LOL.

That's stupid.  It probably wasn't even a racist thing till somebody made a big deal out of it.

Even if so, the logical thing to do would be to just rearrange the seats.

One of her children, Jarvonica Williams

What the hell are African Americans naming their children these days?

[rabbit]

Jarvonica, aparently.

And FYI, "African-American" is not PC.  You should read more about that kind of thing.

Actually I heard "Black American" on CNN recently.  Also, this is probably something just blown out of proportion.

What isn't, these days?  And since when has CNN actually had news and not retarded bullshit like this?  Oh wait.. CNN has always sucked.

Of course it is, anything racial is a touchy subject in the US. However like I said, it's the driver who should of been smart and avoided this issue by simply reassigning seats. Is it that much of a problem? Now look what it got him.

Um, I wasn't trying to be politically correct. I was specifically referring to the black population that has been born and raised America, and that utilizes "Black American" culture, such as what we call ebonics. Newby and deadly and whoever else can feel free to call them niggers or whatever raci(al/st) terms they prefer. I don't particularly care.

[rabbit]

What if they were Haitian, Australian, or something else?  Then they would be Haitian-Americans or Australian-Americans, not African-Americans.

[d&q]

Like I said, I wasn't trying to politically correct. I'm pretty sure you understood which demographic I was trying to present.

If they were born and raised in Australia but moved to the United States, they're Australians. If a British man moves over here, he's British. If he raises a kid, teaches him to pronounce record as "reh-kord" instead of "reck-erd", the kid is British. If someome moves here for the summer, they're foreigners who steal my jobs.

[BigAznDaddy]

Just like James to put shit like this in the forums.
lol.

1. I know both Australian and British Citizens who live and work in the US, you couldn't get their jobs you aren't skilled enough,
2. Record is pronounced reh-cord, your just a stupid american, not all americans are stupid, just the ones who want to be canadian, but canadians aren't stupid they are just slow,
3. How do they take what you do not have?

The "k" sound of "record" is on the second syllable, Joe....  British or not.
