Ya know, on one hand, I totally agree with this...but on the other hand, what about things that are taken out of context and come off as racist to a degree? Like "N**** please" for example, that could easily slip from someone in a joking manner and be taken out of context. And on that subject, who decides what is racist and what isn't? What you consider "racially offensive" could be normal everyday conversation for the majority of the populus....it all depends on how you take it.
On the other hand, I, for one, hate racism to the worst degree, and agree that this is a needed change....as much as I hate censorship, some things need a change. Thanks for the warning!

I think the title of this thread and the rule should be "ALL people posting racist stuff will be banned" and not "the NEXT person to post racist stuff..."
Pisses me off, another board, someone posted the stupidest video of some redneck telling illegal immigrants he'll pay them to work on his deck, so they hop in his truck and he drives to the immigration department. Of course they all get out of the truck and run away (some walk) But everyone on the Board is acting like it's the funniest thing. It's just completely stupid and boring. And despite the fact that they are illegal immigrants, they still deserve to be treated like humans.

Yeah, that was a clip from the "National Lampoon's: Lost Reality" movie. It wasn't real.
