I assume y'all are good with ditching military night to then? And to cancel the off weekend on zombie celebration night?

There's 11 of them!

I don't understand why this would be a problem for anyone.. Does it take anything away from any other race? 

Or do you guys need 100% of everything always about you and catered directly to you at all times? 

They're very sensitive. Kind of like toddlers, if they see someone else getting anything you can expect a fit to be thrown.

Congratulations!! You both fell hook, line and sinker for liberal/leftist marketing that is trying to keep us divided, because that's one of the only platforms left for them and they are going to extend it and mine it for all they can.

Out of my post you came up with a free speech complaint? Really?

I wasn't saying you couldn't speak your mind. I was saying you did speak your mind and showed that you are easily fooled by liberal propaganda.

Meh, I don't pay that much attention to what you have to say. You're too brainwashed to have a meaningful discussion with.

Brainwashed - one of the liberal code words for "I give up because I can't win this argument."

I'm working with the theory to not argue with someone dumber than you, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. So yes, I'm bowing out. Have a good night!

And yet you were the one who completely misunderstood my post and responded with something that wasn't even mentioned by me.

Sounds like the pool of people you can argue with is over 7 billion.

...and how is acknowledging a verifiable fact somehow partisan? How exactly is anything he said related to politics in any way? He had a conversation with a friend and felt an emotion and understood his fellow human more, something everyone on all sides of the political compass should be doing.

I should have quoted back to Jemcee when he said he talked to a friend who couldn't trace his family back pre slavery. That's what I don't understand how it's inherently political.

Trying to make others look silly with little cool guy tough guy quips doesn't do for your argument what you think it does.. 

I believe if people had actual conversations instead of spending their time trying to 'win' arguments this world would roll along a lot more smoothly

You are one of the worst that does more to promote this type of behavior rather than curtail it as you claim to do. It simply doesn’t exist until folks of your ilk claim it to be so.

I wasn't making him look silly. His own post did that. I just pointed it out. 

Read the posts I quoted on my original comment and see who were the two who chose the path this went down.

I am begging you guys not to be weird in this thread. The Instagram comments are bad enough. 

I believe this is the first time Feld/SMX have acknowledged Black History Month. Just curious if there are any interviews or columns out there that can be linked where black racers talk about their experience in the sport as a minority. Again, please don’t be weird.


 

You tried. I give you credit for that, but you should have known. Actually, you did know, which is why you asked them not to get weird. 

I refuse to blame the sport for attracting these people: the intolerant, the ignorant, the homophobes, the misogynists, the hateful. I mean, dirt bikes are cool and fun for everyone. These folks know who they are and they wear their biases proudly. They make “jokes” that aren’t really funny. They act like children who should know better, but want to be rebellious instead.

These people have many, many names, but I tend to refer to them as only “the worst.” So of course they’re going to get weird about American History, even when the subject is involving dirt bike racing.

Yeah yeah ok.. I mean everyone could see the quick mistake he made I was gonna correct him myself..

I just feel like the 'gotta make this dude feel stupid to win' is lame.. I also don't wanna come across as if I'm looking down my nose at you, I will admit I can also fall back on it when I'm in a smart arse mood.. Fuck I almost found myself doing it to Philo Beddoe a post after I trotted in on my high horse haha

It's all good sir! Most all of us were just finishing off a Monday at work, and sometimes the beverage just doesn't quite help enough to take the edge off before the fingers start flying - myself included 🙂

One of the most prestigious eras of SX was two black riders competing against each other in a rivalry that is yet to be surpassed. But most people didn’t even realise it.

P.s. I’m just trying to swing this back to moto.

Don't want to drag this thread back into the gutter, but I've heard about 10 "hard R" references at work in the past 30 minutes complaining about why they aren't firing someone who clocked in 1 minute last this morning (after they clocked in 5 minutes late yesterday.) I'm not sure not talking about it is gonna make it go away. Just had to vent.
