Why is it offensive?

No.

Because he wants it to be.

If you know anything about the culture you would know it is offensive.

Why is the term Rasta offensive?

That's one of those subjective offense things that I just ignore. LOL.

If it makes you feel better, though, I would never flatter you so much as to assume you are/call you a Rasta. I have way too much respect for Rastafarianism. ;)

Friend, as a loc wearer I strongly encourage you to look that term up.


serious man...not something to be bandied with.

yeah do that...so do I.

I am not a Rasta and it's not flattering to assume that I follow the religion as to address me as one.

And for the third time I ask, and more specifically, why is the term Rasta offensive to you?

Because I am NOT one?

are you?

Do you smoke cannabis?

Do you believe in the movement?

I knew that already.

Anyway....

Buffalo Soldier...dreadlock Rasta...Rasta...Rasta....

No, and nobody has ever called me one. And if they did, I wouldn't be offended, I'd just explain it and leave it at that.

You know Buffalo Soldier is my APO line name, right?

Having too good a day to come down to your level...have fun with it...


I tried to ask you respectfully.

Thank you for showing me you have none..

'night

That's like ASS-uming that each and every person that has locks are from the West Indies when in reality they span as far reaching and far back as Indian sikhs and Khemet.

Read up on your hair man...


But fine...we are done here...if you feel like you need a further explanation, feel free to contact me directly.

If you're not a Rasta, why would I need you to give me further explanation? lol
