So Muslim women only think of penis's when seeing them but not the men, eh?    Doesn't that mean if a Muslim man thinks "Hey, it's a penis!" he should be executed for gay thoughts?

The article says it might not be legit.

Five killer whales 'sue' SeaWorld
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-16920866

Five killer whales have been named as plaintiffs in a lawsuit which argues they deserve the same constitutional protection from slavery as humans.

A US judge is considering a complaint by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals People Eating Tasty Animals (Peta) against SeaWorld.

It is reportedly the first time a US court has heard legal arguments over whether animals should enjoy the same constitutional protections as humans.

SeaWorld's legal team said the case was a waste of time and resources.

This even sillier article was brought to my attention by a coworker:

ESPN's 'chink' headline is no laughing matter

In the days since an ESPN editor slapped a staggeringly offensive headline atop a story about Knicks sensation Jeremy Lin — “Chink in the Armor”
http://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/espn-chink-headline-laughing-matter-article-1.1027034?localLinksEnabled=false

The thing that's not funny is the politically correctness nazi that wrote the above article is frothing at the mouth with undue indignation. What a shallow piece of trash. Seriously. What kind of a brick-headed moron write's that kind of P.C. nonsense? She sucks at her job. I hope she's fired! People have something to learn about this kind of...

O.k. I honestly can't keep up with the joke of ironically writing something just like her. It's a completely nonsensical view point (etymological fallacy) to start talking about how offensive the word "chink" is and how we have so much to learn from the story.

Wyoming lawmakers shoot down "doomsday" bill
http://www.wbay.com/story/17040255/wyoming-lawmakers-shoot-down-doomsday-bill


The bill would have set up a task force to create a strategy for a replacement state currency and a military, complete with an aircraft carrier for the landlocked state. The military amendment was a tongue-in-cheek addition from an opponent who thought the rest of the measure was a waste of time.

Republican state Rep. Kermit Brown says the aircraft carrier plan injected "a little bit of humor into the bill."

I think it's pretty retarded that they can put that story out and say "CHINK CHINK CHINK THEY CALLED HIM A CHINK YES A CHINK BECAUSE CHINK IS THE WORD THEY USED AND CHINK IS WHAT I'M SAYING THEY SAID, CHINK CHINK CHINK CHINKITY CHINK", but then at one point they merely say.... "the n-word". I guess blacks get more respect than asians or something. They dare not say "stereotypical ethnic ghetto-style individual" even in a totally harmless purely informative way, but they can stand on the roof of the building and scream "HEY, HE SAID CHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINKKKKKKKKKK!!!" at everyone walking by until their face turns purple and they pass out.

One of the things American English has that some other languages don't understand is severity of bad words. For example, I've never met anyone embarrassed or honestly offended by "dego". In fact in my family it's a common joke that if you are in a hurry you can not let a "dego" by. Little kids can't say poop and sex. TV can only allow ass and bastard, and so on and so forth.

It really depends on your personal view. I would never ever call someone a chink. I think it's a terrible word. This may be the first time I've ever used it in that connotation. But most people don't put the same weight to it. And for most racial remarks, censoring yourself is a personal thing.

For the word "negro" and it's derivatives, we have a national history of the word. First there was slavery, then there was segregation. The terms were legally used in forms of racial discrimination. The words have much worse meaning. I think this is waning, but it's factually supported to treat the term differently than others.

Most other "racial slurs" are perfectly innocent words that exist only because of language corruption and then later having modern meanings shoved into them.
