I appreciate your attempts to clarify the situation.

I came to this thread a bit late ... but ...

... let me just tell you that the poster who called you a racist is himself an Arab who sees everything through a race-oriented prism.

If you said "the sky is blue" ... he'd call you anti-Arab because it was nighttime over Arab countries.

Everyone on this forum knows you as the honorable gentleman that you are ... please don't allow one race-crazed poster to get under your skin.

1. I'm not an Arab.
2. I do not like racist people.
3. You are still an idiot.

Quiz tomorrow, closed-book.

BB,
Stud is also a man of honor. Hes no coward, and calls a spade a spade as he sees it. I don't think its proper FOR EITHER RACE(Jew or Arab) to get into a politically charged debate and dangle bait, then when its taken cry racism.
One could be EQUALLY pissed off when a Jew busts on a born again Christian. One could get very pissed and say why don't you offer a disclaimer before you post that view, that you are a Jew, just to be responsible and all. Or one could read that and take a pass and bite his tongue.
I don't see Stud as an arab, I see him as a guy. I also don't see him preaching that Arabs should be taking down buildings with innocent people in them. I've never met Stud, but I'm quite sure I'd want him in a foxhole with me.
As neither a Jew nor Arab, I can speak without prejudice. Since grade school my life has been filled with closest friends who were Jewish, and I count an Arab among my closest friends(I preach about blowing up every last one of them who would hurt us, not all of them).
If people are going to engage in debates in which race or religion is being thinly veiled or used as bait to dangle to incite the other one, then noone should be surprised or hurt when the other party takes the bait, and runs with it. Neither party is right in that type of case. But if you don't wanna get run over, don't walk in the middle of the road.

You defend a guy who claimed I made " anti-arab " comments when absolutely no such comments ever came from me? Then the guy goes on to claim that I brought Hitler into the conversation when that was also factually inaccurate.

What dog do you have in this fight? Does it stem from my dislike of Pat Day, which you reference as me being a Jew who doesn't like a born-again Christian, as though somehow that justifies the racist references made by that other person ( and I use the term lightly )? Who the hell are you to make thinly veiled accusations like that? Would it be OK for me to dislike Pat Day when he was drinking and using drugs because then you couldn't make outlandish, albeit " examples ", references?

This other poster has SERIOUS problems and made completely indefensible accusations about my posts because he is insecure. Why you would choose to further this situation is beyond me.

I have no dog in this fight. respect all parties and look forward to posts here by all. But if you really wanna get into it off the board on Pm's your Pat day comments could be construed as racist, and yes, they bothered me.

I'd like to see you, BB, and Stud play nice in the sandbox. each brings his own contribution to this board that is very positive.

I don't hold grudges, but the guy has been completely out of line with me and needs to admit he was wrong. It's as simple as that.

Things can twisted a lot of ways but you know my feelings about Pat Day aren't racist in any way. I have enough hate for jockies in general that I wouldn't need to drag nonsense like that into the equation.
