jdcox32 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 so the fact that DN had to write a blog to say is is sorry for making a video in which he impersonates a black guy is the dumbest thing ever. People take themselves way to serious. It was a funny video for the first 2 minutes and the last 10 seconds. so yeah say it was bad but don't say he is racist thats just dumb......i mean come on he is from Canada....so lets not just go lumping him in to some general category and say that he is racist. (yeah i just lumped him in with all the bad canadians) Link to post Share on other sites

James D 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I agree... We all need to just relax and be honest and open with each other.In fact, your post has inspired me a lot, so I will be taking the step of 'coming out' to my parents tonight. I will be revealing that I am actually black. I have hidden it very well over the years and I'm sure they don't suspect anything.... I just hope they understand. Link to post Share on other sites

brabz 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I've got to agree. I really feel enforcing the prevailing overly PC attitude reinforces rather than curbs racial differences. When did everyone lose their sense of humor? The one particular thing that drives me nuts is the college mascot debate. My whole concern is that if they change all Native American mascots, will they be sure to make every team PC? I was born in Ireland, so does that mean if I raise enough hell, I can force Notre Dame to change their mascot because it personifies all Irish persons as drunks who like to fight. It wasn't even a century ago that Irish weren't accepted for jobs as new immigrants. Are Nebraskans allowed to change the Corn-husker image because they don't like to be personified as yokel farmers? At some point, people just have to gain a little perspective and relax once in a while. Link to post Share on other sites
XX44466XX 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 No, but I believe some Indians did.Not the red-dot kind, but the kind who fought cowboys. Link to post Share on other sites
quadaces 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I didnt think PC had much to do with it. DN seems to spend a lot of time trying to be things that he isn't. To me the VBLOG wasnt offensive at all. It was just a very stupid video. I watched a little less that 2 min of it and was pissed that I wasted that much time on it. Link to post Share on other sites
brabz 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 No, but I believe some Indians did.Not the red-dot kind, but the kind who fought cowboys.Interesting point on that one. I remember reading something saying that the Seminole Indian tribe supported the school and endorsed the use of the mascot, and it ended up being pushed further by lawyers. Can't link...it was a while ago. Boom...there goes all credibility, lol. Link to post Share on other sites

His politics, social and religious beliefs I am not./rant Link to post Share on other sites
showstopper24 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I don't think it was a racist blog at all.If Daniel did not put on any make up and pretended that he was a differenet white guy, nobody would think it was racist. Link to post Share on other sites

pocket3s 0 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I like how he said that they didn't want to play 8 ball because the point of the game is too get rid of the black ball. So they play 9 ball where the point is to get rid of the yellow ball. Nice. Link to post Share on other sites
rtheusa 0 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Have you noticed that white people get more angry about black jokes then most black people do? Alot of my friends are black and we joke all the time, and its no big deal, my mother on the other hand can't "stand the intolerance".....what does that even mean????I think the blog was funny tho,....GG DN Link to post Share on other sites
