I see things on this board every day that I don't like, or aren't funny to me, or don't make 'good satire', but I don't tell people what they can or can't write. Having a laugh at ficticious characters from movies makes Sox Talk look bad?? Letting a small group of people try to dictate what is right and wrong is what will make Sox Talk look bad.

If something is racial and demeaning, it's wrong. I don't care how you justify it. It is f***ing wrong. Look, I get angry about too much political correctness stuff being shoved down our throats in this country. But, to make fun of a large segment of our population because their English is not quite up to your standards is f***ing ignorant. Edit: Are Sammy Sosa and Ozzie Guillen fictious characters? I've seen the same type of idiocy used protraying them. Edited January 16, 2006 by YASNY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think doing an impersonation of someone with a foreign accent is the same as using a racial slur.

First off I applaud YASNY for standing up for what he believes is right even if there hasn't been a lot of support or people thinking it's a big problem. I agree with genious that many times the parody isn't a racial slur, but I still think it is wrong. I would like tosee the site that anyone from the Sox organization could come to and feel welcome. I would like to see the site welcoming every Sox fan, regardless of primary language. I believe some of the "impersonations" step over a line. The best way I can describe it is this feels more like a blackface ruitine during segregation, than a tribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
