Because you live in Mississippi? Does this mean that everyone in Mississippi knows racism and understands it beyond its overt form? Please say "no" because the answer is "no."

That's great. Apparently you don't know grammar though.

For anyone to take Bill O'Reilly's comment as "racist" is absurdly ridiculous. Learn some reading comprehension and how to put words into context and get back to all of us. He said he WOULD NOT JOIN a lynch mob against her.

Everyone in this thread = 1 You = 0

His comment was ill placed and the outcome could've been racist if the context was different. But that wasn't the case.

And to assert that O'Reilly himself is racist is silly to me. It's not the first time I've heard that assertion and I'm still wondering what information that is based on.

If he is racist then this certainly doesn't prove anything.

Can YOU read??? I am so done with trying to point out the obvious to people who have their blinders on. I know when to get the hell on and let the simple minded people have their way. Keep thinking that Bill O. isn't racist and that he didn't "mean" it in that context. As for the cute little score card, it isn't about who doesn't think it was a stupid ass comment to make, it's about the fact that we keep on accepting these comments and saying "he didn't mean it". So, I guess if he had called her the n-word, your argument would have been "he used the n-word that ends with an a, so it's okay."

I just know to stay away from certain GCers; don't want to get lynched...by the mob. Oh, I didn't mean it like it sounded.

I'll have to ask the people whose family members were killed by lynching. The kind Bill O. said he wasn't "talking" about.

No need. The answer is "no."

You started the intolerance for other viewpoints, Sistergreek.

ETA: I disagree with your interpretation of O'Reilly's comment but I understand that a lot of people interpreted it the way you did. However, in my disagreement with you, you didn't roll your eyes at me and say "some people will never understand racism."
