Sean, dude, not you.  Joaquin. Or Joker, as I refer to him. I&#039;d like to see him go to Wendy&#039;s down in the neighborhood about 1:00am for a chicken sammich to see how he gets treated.</description>

		<description>Duros: &lt;i&gt;Not saying it should. but it would give you a different perspective if you knew that that prejudice existed for 1000 other people before you. Know what I mean?&lt;/i&gt;

Yes.

&lt;i&gt;Hey, joker, here’s a homework assignment for ya. later on tonight, go down to the “hood” where you live and get something to eat at the local fast-food burger joint. Then come back and tell us how comfortable you were.&lt;/i&gt;

		<description>Joaquin:

It would be you that would need the fainting couch after I smashed your nose flatter than a pancake, you fucking twerp.  
I find it pathetic when upper middle class white people allege &quot;racism&quot; when they don&#039;t have a fucking clue what it means or how it feels to be a real victim of discrimination.  I&#039;m sure you would wet your pants and cry like a baby were that to really happen.  Why don&#039;t you go back to playing your Nintendo, you little weenie, and leave the intellectual discussion to the adults?</description>

		<description>Duros: &lt;i&gt;Every single black person you have ever met has experienced racism at some point in their lives. Every single one. ... Think about that next time you hear some fat, rich white fuck talk about “reverse racism.”&lt;/i&gt;

But if we&#039;re to be against discrimination we should be against it in all forms.  So while I don&#039;t doubt that every black person has experienced some racism at some point I wouldn&#039;t be comfortable using that as a reason to ignore racism in the other direction.

Not saying that every &quot;rich white fuck&quot;&#039;s claim of reverse racism is valid.  99.9% of the time it isn&#039;t.  But the 1 in a thousand time shouldn&#039;t be dismissed just because it only happens once in a thousand.</description>

		<description>Seriously doubt it, joker.

&lt;i&gt;Oliver – as a black man, you know how utterly ridiculous it is for Beck to call Obama a “racist”.&lt;/i&gt;

Had a discussion about the Gates incident with my boss over the weekend. He felt Obama was prejudiced against the cop. I said that I think Obama has a different perspective on race relations than the previous 43 presidents have had. 
I also said something that sort of took him by surprise. Every single black person you have ever met has experienced racism at some point in their lives. Every single one. Do you think that that is a fair statement. Oliver? Sam? Randy Brown? 

Think about that next time you hear some fat, rich white fuck talk about &quot;reverse racism.&quot;
In America in the 21st century, I think that&#039;s pretty shitty.</description>

		<description>Oliver - as a black man, you know how utterly ridiculous it is for Beck to call Obama a &quot;racist&quot;.  Beck has never experienced racism in his pathetic life.  He has never been looked at with eyes filled with raging hatred, simply because of the color of your skin.  He has never been ignored or been given bad service at a restaurant just because of his racial background.  He has never been called hateful and hurtful names or made to fear for his well-being simply because of the way he looks.  You know how that feels, don&#039;t you?  You need to speak out forcefully and call this out as nonsensical bullshit.
