Wow, must have been a pretty shitty experience for you.
The death of an infant is pretty complicated, not to mention interacting with the parents.

What were the circumstances like, if you don't mind me asking?

Come on man, burnt alive? That's not the smartest thing to say. :wink:

Nothing is sure yet, but since I work at a childrens ER, things like this is bound to happen. Not fun though.

Anyhow, it's at it's worst the hours following, now it's buisness as usual (which is cynic and cold, but that's the way things are).

I do agree in a sense with the new posters who can't speak English. I mean we all saw nikkolas' posts, and it can become a pain in the ass to read these dipshits ranting about things that are all over the place and occassionally on topic.

Sat Aug 13, 2005 4:34 pm

Well you dont have to burn them alive.. maybe shoot them first

A one-year old girl just died 3 meters from me, and I met both parents just after they heard. This is all fluff.
Believe me, I know how it feels. At my camp last year I watched a 5-year old boy get crushed and killed by a falling, 300-pound treebranch right in front of his twin sister. It made CNN and everything. I'm sorry you had to go through seeing that, I wish you luck with the kid's parents.

Evolution means survival of the fittest. To survive you must reproduce. Homosexualism does not want to survive because you can't reproduce. Think about it. Yes it goes for homosexual animals too. All those homosexuals are not fit to survive because they do not want to, basically.

No I have nothing against muslims, maybe because I have much more Muslim friends than homosexuals.
In fact one of my best friends in elementary was Muslim, I had a few Muslim friends in high school, and one of my friends in college is a Muslim. I have studied various histories of some Middle Eastern countries in detail as well. I have nothing against them at all.
If there is any "race" or "culture" I have a problem with, it would be the caucasian race.

About the language thing. Sun Tzu says "know your enemy and know yourself and in 100 battles you will win them all". That is why we all must know English, to succeed and be above the US. To eventually be better than the US economically. To make our countries better than that dominating power. I hate the US more than any other country except japland, so in no way shape or form was I saying the stupid "hey, everyone, learn English! It's the way of the world!" I'm just saying English is essential if you want to get far in this so called "globalized economy".

Hey, some grammatical errors I do understand but there are people that are ridiculous. Regardless whehter everyone should learn English or not, this is an English forum, am I right? I did not mean foreign people who make the occasional mistake or two, but foreign people who either
1.) obviously use a stupid translator
2.) just write horribly

Yes stereotypes are horrible and is the foundation for racism, but for homosexuals, I can't just get over the disgusting/unnatural part. I'm sorry, I just can't.

Wrong, because homosexuals do not only come from homosexuals. So it's true they can't reproduce, but that doesn't mean homosexualism won't surive...

So you're still racist, just not towards Muslims? Yeah, that much better. Dipshit.

You're incredibly stupid. You're talking as if you want world domination and the only way to do that is to learn english.

It's really not too hard to figure out what they're trying to say. Right now you just want something to bitch about.

Yeah, cuz that attitude will get you places. I just can't! :roll:

Stop complaining. It's an internet forum.

Depends on what racism is. Race does not exist, it is a class thing made by the whites. So I am not racist. You see race is often perceived the wrong way. Individual racism does not really matter as much, institutional racism is what matters. (Examples of institutional racism include: segregation through housing...for an example of this, see Chicago's housing. Economic/Labor racism: the gap between same class whites and blacks are around 4.6% for middle class. In 1979 it was 2.9 it was RAISED to 4.6% thanks to cases like the Bakke case, introducing this non-sense of "reverse-racism" which is a bunch of bull. Educational racism: The boom of private schools happened right after Brown vs. Board of Education. Coincidence? I think not. Anyhow, most African Americans are denied better education due to housing anyhow. Bussing doesn't always solve the problem.) And so only whites can be racist because they are the ones who created this institution of race and apply this institutional racism. If you think race is in the hearts and minds, then you are mistaken. Did you know that the word "black" referring to African Americans was only made after the indentured servants became too expensive, and started getting the lands they were promised, causing competition. Back when indentured servants outnumbered slaves, there was no word like "black" referring to African Americans. Individual Racism does not matter as much as institutional racism does. Changing it to the opposite is what causes most of the racial issues today.

No I do not want world domination, but learning English is the only thing that will help you get ahead in the globalizied economy. It's a fact. If you don't learn English, you are limited. That's why every foreign country is trying to learn English.

Well the guy was saying that I probably hated Muslims, I was just trying to say that I wasn't offensive towards Muslims. I'm not racist in any way.

:lol:

Sat Aug 13, 2005 7:45 pm

I'm serious. Before it was savages vs civilized. Then they changed it to Black vs Whites. Whiteness was created to enforce the institution of slavery, when indentured servants were becoming less and less popular. I could write an essay on this...but I think I'll forward you people to some books...or not. If you want the books, then ask me what books you get these ideas from...I'll probably name around 50 or so books.

Sat Aug 13, 2005 7:56 pm

That doesn't mean you're not a racist.

Sat Aug 13, 2005 8:04 pm

It basically means it doesn't really matter if an individual is racist or not as long as he isn't part of that institution of racism. See whether I'm racist or not does not affect institutional racism at all. That's just getting away from the real argument, which are more subtler forms of racism. You know now thinking about it, I'm not racist at all, just hate Yankees (Americans). There, much simpler and easier.

Sat Aug 13, 2005 8:09 pm

In the last year I've grown a fairly big dislike for certain Filipino's. I could provide much evidence as to why if need be.

By this logic, if the Chinese instead of the whites made this class, and if you are Chinese, it would make you racist. :roll:

Since you have a problem with the "caucasian race" and dislike all Yankees, that makes you *trumpet fanfare* racist.

Sun Aug 14, 2005 2:43 am

I have something against the caucasians, although I'm one of them. Does that make me a racist :lol:?

Sun Aug 14, 2005 2:45 am

Naw, if you're racist against your own race, it makes you traitor :lol:

Sun Aug 14, 2005 2:49 am

Agh...people twisting words..fine, I will refer to a few books, not like anyone will read them, but I guess it adds some validity to my argument.
Read: Making Whiteness by Grace Hale, Black Power by Kwame Ture, The Chicago Race Riots by Carl Sandburg
Making Whiteness shows how race was not a natural thing, it was fabricated. Black Power sort of outlines the difference between individual and institutional racism. Chicago Race Riots...is a study of Chicago at the time of the race riots 1919...I think..Anyhow, the book (or was it a pamphlet? Not sure, I had a photocopy of it.) kind of hints that race is an economic issue.

Yes, of course those books are biased toward my view, do you want me to also show you books that argue to opposite. Myrdal's book (forget the name) sort of is where "race is in the hearts and minds of the people" theory begins. The whole argument that if everyone changes their mentality about race, everything will be all jolly. Which is not true at all. There are too many race related issues written into laws that even if everyone's minds were to change, it would be difficult.

I'm saying that the scientific definition of race is bogus, race is around 90% an economic issue. You know, the racial distinctions that were established in the late 1800s and early 1900s were studies that were funded by white people. There are hardly any natural distinctions that make a race superior or inferior. It's fabricated. For one thing, I ask why there are no "races" of animals. There are separate species, but "race"? I believe it's not applied to animals...
Or it could be that biology is certainly not my strength, dunno.

Discard what I said about hating the whites...bleah, I was just speaking without thinking, trying to sort of appease to Habakuk because he suddenly said that I hated Muslims, which is far from the truth. I just dislike the US...and hate japland. No specific race, just America in general, as a country. See, that's national hate, not racial hate. Also I should have toned it down to dislike

Also, I'd like to correct that the income gap between same class whites and blacks is 32% sorry. That was a huge mistake.

Furthermore, Chinese is not a race.

Sun Aug 14, 2005 3:01 am

Orientals then? Asians? Man, I gotta be careful with my words, but you're right, Chinese is not a race.

I just hate the US. No specific race, just America in general, as a country. See, that's national hate, not racial hate.


There we go! Much better :P

It seems that you're focusing on race as something between "blacks" and "white" but I don't think it should be overlooked that discrimination against a different color shouldn't be called racism.

Sun Aug 14, 2005 3:01 am

Irrelevant of whether it (race) was fabricated or natural, it's culturally accepted globally. I mean obviously to you you're not racist because you've read things that prove to you that race doesn't exist, but until you convince the other 6 billion people in the World of this I think it's quite difficult to put forth a convincing argument like that.

Sun Aug 14, 2005 3:07 am

True.
Fine, just consider I said nothing.
Bleah...I thought since it was a letting off steam thread I could just blabber whatever.
Plus I'm alone in Sydney with my family travelling or on a business trip and since I only visit here for vacations I have no friends here. So I got nothing better to do than argue in this forum. Yes, in other words, I currently have no life whatsoever.
I live too far away from the city to go anywhere, no car, so I'm basically under house arrest..
T.T

Welcome to Martha Stewarts life!

Since this is the letting off steam thread I thought I'd share something interesting with you all.. it's not really letting off steam but letting off gas. I counted how many times I farted yesterday and it was around 40. :D

Sun Aug 14, 2005 4:38 am

Maybe I was born a girl, because I hardly fart at all... there'll be some days where I won't actually do one at all. Either that, or you people are just disgusting freaks :x go get bitten by a mutant spider, freak!
