Animal? I see humans acting crazy. I personally don't like to use racist adjectives to describe people. My mind isn't stuck in 1860.

I have no desire to fight anyone.

I guess we just have a disconnect. When I state my opposition to hate crime legislation, for example, I often use the James Byrd case.

I state, categorically, that I do not want to inquire into the why, how or when the animals (and I consciously, consistently use that word) decided to kill James Byrd, whether or not he was tall, black or wearing a Colorado Rockies hat - it does not matter to me. I don't care. They are animals that deserve the same treatment other animals get when they go bad - be put down in this case. One of the animals is gone (thankfully), another is awaiting death and the third is serving a life setence. One animal down, one will be (hopefully), and one caged for life.

And they're all whiter than sour cream. So, I guess we just differ on whether or not "animal" is racist.

It has never been exclusive to black people. Let it go.

Do you not understand why people make that comparison? The way they are behaving is not like humans, it is animal like. They are acting like the animals in this fight: LINK

Meh, the aggrressors in the video aren't people. So "animal" is a pretty neutral descriptor imo.

If someone was really racist, they might call them feral chimps, but this board is better than that.
