I agree with Anessa!!! He's looking for an audience and don't give him one!
The noob should back off a highly regarded contributing member. I have read UB's posts for months now and have never seen any type of racial slurs or comments!
You're coming at him like he's IMUS and there are NO similarities at all!!!
UB, you have my respect!!

It's not about posts or longevity on here...
I've never interpreted Urban Poet as being racist to anybody on here. I'd challenge Cereal to bring some evidence to light or else he's just a noob troll. FYI, your cop jibe is pretty much below the belt considering you don't even know UP as a person, potential cop, etc.

Ignore him, he's not worth the effort of even typing out a response.
I have absolutely zero respect for people like him, who just throw out the race card every chance they get. I personally couldn't care less if you did hate white people, that's your opinion and your entitled to it (FYI, I'm white and I couldn't care less).

Why does everyone refer to Urban Poet as UB instead of UP? I've done the same thing in the past and I've noticed most people on RFD do that. Doesn't UP make more sense? Why is it that UB seems to come out more naturally? Weird.

All you have to do is look at the person who posted the link. lol
Not everyone can get away with a post like that without being flamed. B40 is one of those who can pretty much post anything without getting flamed.

I'm just sick of all your racist ********. I assume you are not a cop because you would not have passed the racial sensitivity training.

I'd say there's two categories.
ACTUAL RACISTS = KKK
and
USING RACISM AS A JOKE = ALOT OF PEOPLE
I'd say you fit into category 2... as do I.

It really does.....for me it's the Urban I suppose....strange never though of it as UP and will change my references to him to reflect it :lol: ...hmm maybe I am referring to him to often! :cheesygri
IMO when someone has as much to say as UP, they become such an integral part of the community that they can pretty much say anything...let's see 13k+ posts versus 80some off posts...who do you think we'd side with? Obviously someone whom we have gotten to 'know'

UP, i exonerated you. you prolly saw William Morva in the news reports of the rampage. it was a totally unrelated incident, but they mentioned his case because it had caused the school to shut down earlier in the year.
fyi the shooter of the rampage was chinese.

I think sometimes you might border on ignorance, and stereo type what you call "white people".

Ditto. You might not say it explicitly, but you generalize way too much. You're the type of people who hates something but will never say it. Too bad for you it sometimes slips.
Explicitly racist? No.
Racist tendency? Yes.

i dont recall when i have generalized or stereotyped white people.
The only thread i have that seemed racist but wasn't, was the thread i made about "what do white people eat".
but even there i made such specifically clear distinction towards the type of Caucasian culture that i was trying to pin point. So this actually shows that i recognize the different types of historical backgrounds that Caucasian people can fall under.
