Topic: Racist Content On Cafords

A couple years ago there was a push to get rid of all the grammar violaters, trouble makers, and ghetto topic starters. I understood that, there's an image Cafords wants to keep or a direction Cafords wants to go in, so having too many topics in that content didn't fit.
However, ever since I've been on this site there has been a prejudice undertone to it, and recently, especially after the election and reelection of president Obama I've notice the profiling and prejudice statements have increased or have become more bold.
Everyone has or will make a comment based on race, but if race is the sole reason for the comment, it shouldn't be allowed. I may be guilty of this, I may not, but if I am and Cafords wants to change the direction or image of their site, then ill be more careful in what i write to make sure it's not based solely on race, and will have factual evidence to support my comment.
Cafords wanted to step their grammar up, well they should step it up a little more by requiring posters to back their racial statements up with legitimate sources. Kinda like when you write a paper in college, "site your sources." If it might be racial, and they can't find a legitimate source to back their claim, then they shouldnt write it.
I think there needs to be line drawn on these comments, unless this is the direction or perception Cafords wants to give. It's ok to have a difference of opinion and speak how you feel, but when comments are made like the one posted below, I don't see his point, and I don't how he came up with his statement. Which leaves one conclusion, unless he wants to explain how, I'm willing to listen.
I'm sure there's a lot more, if you feel there was something I posted ever in the past that was based solely on race and cant be referenced, Repost it, I'll explain or apologize.
On the other hand, I'm sure this guy isn't the only offender, if there's anything that anyone else has posted that fits the criteria, repost their comment and have them explain.

I'm sure all those people protesting have excellent jobs. They all just decided to take a vacation day last minute to protest.

Actually I was just going to post something similar. I've been talked down to because of my race and religion. So cafords mods, I would appreciate it if these topics are locked instantly. Furthermore, I would appreciate it if everyone posting on here had the decency to respect the views, faith, culture, race, and practices of others. This site is becoming a Mecca for bashing minorities more than it has been a site for networking with other ford/mustang owners in the local area.
By the way, Roy you should edit the topic and add attention mods. This should not be tolerated as it's breaking the rules in the forum, according to 2000blackgt it's rule number 1. I will not tolerate this anymore.

Roy, I love you man but this is not the way of going about things. Not like this man, not like this....

I'm not going to defend anything one way or the other, but I would just like to add that we all see the world and interpret the world through our own personal world view. Just thought it was interesting that I saw the picture and didn't notice any prevalence of race. The only thing I saw was a burning flag.... I then read the comment and when I saw freeloading, I assumed the comment was about people on government assistance disrespecting the flag giving them assistance.... And the inherent hypocrisy and irony there.
I was more bothered by the site of the flag on fire Thant any comment or the color of the people holing the flag. But that's because I saw it through my unique world view.
My ask is that we look at thing that way before getting offended, just as we need to look at posting thing because they may offend.
Now other stuff I can admit has been blatantly racist...
Just my 2 cents.

I agree that based on the tone of the posts on this site, that there exists a racist undertone and that is no surprise since politically, it appears that this site has leaned to the right with all of the pro gun posts and offensive remarks aimed at minorities and people and because of that, I don't post on this site as much as I used to.
The point is that people who lean to right, vote republican and are pro NRA are by nature racist.

You even saying that, is proof you are the racist! Nice ideology you got going. All Pro Nra people are racist? Lol that is just another one of your racist ass remarks. Please fill free to never post on this site again. No one will miss your race baiting and your hate mongering.

I guess that intelligent and coherent posts that stimulate thought is too much for your small mind.

You don't make those kinds of post. You make troll post with skewed facts and lies. While over looking the facts and truth about the subjects you are posting on.

Stop, this isn't about the ongoing disrespect between cobraracer and warhorse. This is about a forum which lets members spew racist and hateful remarks. This is the issue at hand and the issue that needs to be addressed in the thread. You both have the ability to PM each other I suggest you do that, if you have personal indifferences

can you show me an example where the forum allowed members to directly say something racist to a specific race?

I hate freeloading pieces of shit who refuse to get off their asses and get government assistance and think they are entitled to it then BURN THE AMERICAN FLAG because something happened that they didnt like that had absolutely nothing to do with them.
Now feel free to post what was considered racist in that statement.
Go on.
