I'm getting the "crawls while drunk" T-shirt for my brother if I can find it.

See? You are smart woman. You know that racism is not to be tolerated if it physically hurts someone else. I never got offended with " White men can't jump".
I live in a mobile home and the term trailer trash doesn't bother me at all. I know who I am and I am cleaner than most people in brick homes.

I'm a minority myself and racism to me is hatred, not comedy. To me people like shinobinoz perpetuate racism by being overly sensitive and going out there way to find racism even when none may be there. One example would be if you disagree with Obama then you're racist.

People like Ellen perpetuate racism by wearing racist t-shirts!

You will have to show where I've made such a statement so cavalier as disagreeing with Obama.

rac�ism (rszm) KEY

NOUN:

The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

Please point out where it states that is has to be physically harmful to be racism or that used as comedy it is not racism.

IT IS WRONG.

Well, who are you to say or judge if someone is "being overly sensitive?" It's not you....it's someone else.....and you have NO right to pass judgment on another person's 'sensitivity'...what may not be sensitive to you...may be very sensitive to another....and that should at the very least be respected!!

I'm a free individual with the right to an opinion. I'm sorry you think people don't have that right but tough s***.

Why can't people find some amusement in their lives? I had a T-shirt that said, "My Belly sticks out farther than my d***ie Do". It was a d***ie brand name.
Laugh at life, quit b****ing about someone hurt my feelings. Did we castrate ourselves with all this political correctness bulls***? Grow a pair and enjoy life. If I were Native Indian (I do have some red blood ion me), I would wear a shirt like that proudly. As Crazy noted about the Irish, I know many Irish people that poke fun at themselves.
Racism is ignorant but unless it provokes physical harm, this is where I say " get over it". Sticks and stones is what is all about.

Hey Rocket, this mentions people that say "just get over it" like you did!
