I once knew a 5 year old girl who came home crying. Because some boy called her and racist names The boys were only a couple of years older then here.
And yes I am White. And I am a father(it wasn't my daughter, it was a freind's daughter)
But my point a racist doesn't have physically hurt someone. Words can hurt just as easily.

I totally agree that words can hurt, but there is always someone that comes and says things about you wether it be the skin color, nationality or other physical appearence. In my point of view it is as bad to call people names from their appearences as their nationality. It is just as the world is, and we all get our share. Thats why i just would say go on and live the life on.

That blows Alil, unfortunately the world is full of idiots like that. Even though Freak's response lacks a certain PC element, there is a grain of sense to it. Don't let it bug you too much, find another server, and rest assured that not everybody is a racist POS.

To those who think racist attitudes don't hurt anything, that's a sad outlook, and it's probably not worth explaining it you, but an awful lot of people are killed, beaten and harassed because of bullshit racist attitudes! Put enough people together who just hate without acting, and eventually you breed little racist twats who do act. A violent racist is just the son or daughter of a racist who merely spouts crap!!

Some people can be really gay. I agree with everybody that said this was rascist. so your jewish no reason to be kicked!

Yes words can hurt. Hitler probably never physically hurt anybody. But his words cost a lot of innocent people their life. If we don't stand up say its wrong, who will?

Not all racist is like hitler.

It's rude and it's ignorant, but it all comes down to the fact that he has the right to express his opinions (even if they're wrong). No point in bitching about it because you'd just be validating his actions. He was probably just doing it to piss people off. Immature children all over the place.

I hope you didnt get wrong idea. I definately dont understand/agree racists or other people that make fun of others. BUT, what can we do? At least in situations that we sit front of our computers 2000-miles apart. I'd say its just better ignore it then and live life on. Of course in situation like you descibed that 5-year old kid was mentally hurt, then you have to stand up and solve the thing.. But as I said.. Internet, 2000-miles apart.. Not a thing we can do except lower to their level, and that wouldnt be the solution either, dont you agree?

Agreed, why grovel like snivelling dogs in a pile of crap...just because somebody else does. It does need to be spoken against in a calm rational manner though.

Yes there are things we can do. If its in a game ask them to keep offensive statements to them self, if not boot them. If you can't
boot them leave yourself(i do). By doing nothing we unwittingly encourge this type people. Already their is a generation growning up learn that the can sit a computer and call anybody anything they want and not be touched. They think it makes them tough/cool or I don't know what. I'm guilty as well. I like to make fun of people in a sarcastict way( no name calling). I just would like to believe that I/we can make the a differnce.

Yes I agree that if you can boot them, then of course boot them. But otherwise I dont think its worth the fuzz. You go to another game the changes are there is again some 12-year old kid that calls people names. In my opinion if somebody starts to call you names in INTERNET it just is sad, nothing more. Internet are full of that kind of people, changes are that you never even see them outside because they are busy insulting people all day long and are affraid to go out. And even if you would see them I bet most of them wouldnt dare say a word befront of someone. Think about it, how absurd it it: a "tough" guy calles you names 2000-miles apart, its actually almost funny, a big Whoopdee doo.

True, most people I've seen who rant at others on the net are scrawny geek losers in real life. Maybe that's why they rant so loudly, they don't have the balls to defend themselves in the real world so they feel the need to do it here.
