Since i have you here I have a question i would like you to answer 100 percent honestly. Now being in and out of the system since a young man. I have a wide diversity of friends many Latinos whites irish italians black sri Lankans that is true i get along very well with sri Lankans. I ask them all the same question. And the vote is about 70 to 30. Do you consider Italians White? Sri Lankans? Interesting, can't say I know of any TBH. what's the 70/30 N/Y? I say no. Depending on how close to the boat they are sitting. What fucking boat

Amen. If its insulting or actually even bothering you i apologize for me and everyone. Where i grew up we insulted eachother regularly and still do but that's not the point. I hate to offend anyone especially when it comes down to race. I mean im Italian and these assholes attack my heritage daily. A proud majestic god like heritage. How dare they. But im getting off topic. Sorry if you felt uncomfortable in any way. Also, I'm not sorry if I offended any Irish by calling Fitzpatrick a mick during one of my anti-Fitz rants. We don't need any more of his kind up in here. :-) Shit, lemme tell you what I realized, this place has more O's than Camden yard!

Interesting. I consider myself an oyster and clam expert and have had many different kinds from all over the place. I've never heard or seen blood clams before tho. But I'm gonna b on the lookout from now on. Come to hampurcon bring some clams. Prepare to eat them. Ill cave in your fucking nose. Blood clams ala ragu You were supposed to pick me up rags. Plus, the jets always loose during Hampurcon. Not to mention it seems too many of u r ex drinkers so what fun would that b? As grandpa Simpson said to homer when homer stopped drinking - "ur a disappointment. And u quit drinkin', the only thing u were any good at!" :-) I'd like to go tho. Would b fun to meet all u clowns. We'd probably have to go thru added security to enter met death.

No problem, and thank you. One day we will meet. You bring the pasta. I bring the fried chicken. Life is good! Since i have you here I have a question i would like you to answer 100 percent honestly. Now being in and out of the system since a young man. I have a wide diversity of friends many Latinos whites irish italians black sri Lankans that is true i get along very well with sri Lankans. I ask them all the same question. And the vote is about 70 to 30. Do you consider Italians White? Hard question to answer. Looking at a map, Sicily is very close to the African continent. Was there intermingling? I'm sure there was. However, this extends to other areas and populations as well. Now, in modern day America, blacks and Italians share lots of cultural traits. More similar than dissimilar. Unfortunately, through ignorance on both sides, there is conflict. So, if I had to answer your question, yes white in skin color. (Except summer). However with many shared attributes.

Yes Eddie Murphy coined that in his delirious stand up show or raw. What i do find odd. Is that when i got remarried to my asian wife and we had a daughter they made me check An Italian box on her birth certificate after the Asian one was checked it was totally separate under the line pacific islands Mediterranean then there it was Italian. This didnt happen when i had my first son with my jewish Israeli wife. I shouted so it's fucking true then. Whatever the fact is they wouldn't let me put white this time. My wife laughing said why do you care. I said i just want the fucks to admit it. I ordered the online 99.9 percent accurate dna test. Prepare for that thread

He's lucky he's on the bengals cause it's the exact color of their helmets!

I say nig nog since i was like 11. Granted my neighborhood was 99 percent italian. But it's like honky no big deal. Is it offensive to anyone? I've been away for a few days, so I'm now catching up on this. I've resisted revealing some things here, but now I will. Let's skip the nicknames all around. I'm black. Yes, I am your one black site member. All that I want out of life are the same things that all of you want: 1) health for me and my loved ones 2) prosperity through my hard work 3) a Jets Super Bowl win 4) a bed mattress occasionally soaked with female love juice. (well, most of you at least) Now, I may not agree with all opinions and viewpoints here. Just as I'm sure that VTN or Lone Star Lady are not in agreement when we go off on sexist rants. However, I shrug it off and soldier forward. As they do. The term used was offensive to me. It touches something very real and painful. Every group has such terms and expressions that touch a raw nerve. Maybe I'm being naive...but there are some smart fuckers around here. Let's be better than that. The Reverend Porgyman has spoken! Can I get an amen from the congregation? Amen. The term bothered me too. We all go overboard with jokes in private with friends who know where we’re coming from, but on a message board, things can get misunderstood real fast, especially for guys who don’t stop by very often or lurkers.

Porgy I am glad you spoke up.
Sadly I think we have all been a little desensitized to such things. I have a nephew that is biracial and it would just break my heart if he ever felt like he was less than anyone else.

I have a nephew that is biracial and it would just break my heart if he ever felt like he was less than anyone else. Very well said. Society in general has become desensitized to these matters. A quick story: During World War II, my late father served in the US Army. The segregated US Army. After the Allies had retaken France, his unit along with others marched down the streets of Paris. All was good, except for one thing. Little kids, probably 10 years old or less, kept running behind his unit and staring and pointing. Why? Because the white soldiers before them had told the kids that the (insert derogatory term) soldiers following them had tails...and the kids believed this to be true. Happily, we no longer deal with that overt (in most cases) behavior anymore. However the stigma still remains.
