Monday Spurs VS Jazz 7 PM ET ---- Front row seat!

[BYE]

Are you saying that this dude on jazzfans has power over the mexican people.

I had no idea...... that does change things a bit

Spoken like someone who has simply accepted racism in some of its forms. Not much you can do to persuade people who don't give enough **** to even try to understand it let alone change it.

The Kanter/Jazz breakup may be a win-win. It's kinda like when I stop going to buffets—saves the restaurant money and helps me lose weight.

It probably is a win-win. Can't we all just be happy with that and get along?

 

[BYE]

Pretty sure if we let this dudes comment go without getting after him that there would be no horrific ramifications.
You are making a mountain out of a mole hill

I'll drop it now, since you're obviously fine with accepting racism with a thick skin. Can you imagine if an NBA owner had said the comments made about Mexicans, or should the Clippers still have Donald Sterling as their owner?

You were saying the reason racism is so powerful is because of the power the offender has over the offendee.

So what power does the jazz fan poster have over the people of mexico I ask you?

Hell I don't even remember the posters name. All this talk about his comment is probably empowering him tbh.

Then you do that. I do not think chilling out is a morally justifiable response to casual racism. So I won't.

dude, apologies if the meaning carries something different to you which it obviously does. Here caucasian people from a northern state refer to other caucasians from a southern state as "mexicans" with nothing but humorous intent. It has nothing to do with racial hatred or casual racism, merely geography. Going by your reaction obviously such tensions are a big deal there, apologies again for the loss in translation. Take a breath, accept my apology, move on.

I'm going to tip-toe my way out of this game thread.

I think that nba owners or people in power vs a jazz fanz poster is apples to oranges. Just my opinion.

God dammit I will NOT let this thread derail. It was too good of a win.

It's all good bro. Just be careful when you use terms talking about culture, race, sex, nationality, or anything of that nature

No harm was done man

I am not Mexican or Latin American, so I don't need an apology. But I'll take your explanation for what it is and agree to move on.

No, because screw the Thunder. They are in our division. Can't wait to destroy them. Hope they lose every game from here until forever.
