131. Just because you don't actually say the word "Boo"
Edited on Mon Apr-17-06 05:25 PM by FredScuttle
doesn't mean you're trying to scare someone.

Your posts are dancing around the explicit statement that the woman got what she deserved (re: the racial slur) because she may have said something to them first. What I'm reacting to is your (continued) attempt to invent hypotheticals to mitigate an ugly, ugly racial slur. You are the one saying:

"Without knowing the context in which that was said, particularly what preceded it"
"less incendiary, certainly"
"if the two had been arguing over something and she made a racial-based insult to him"

I don't care to waste my time imagining what this rape victim may have said to her attackers and those who enabled them. I could also consider the possibility that the strippers have superpowers, but they were crippled by the Krypton necklaces worn by the rapists, but I deal in common sense. I have the eyewitness account of a player yelling a disgusting racial slur at a black rape victim.
