The race card is a cop-out as far as I am concerned. I have seen it used for the most ignorant
purposes. It is a disgusting trend in America and should be stopped. My favorite race card players
are Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Spike Lee. They play the deck like poker champs; hustlers and
smooth talkers. But what upsets me is that people are forced to accept folks like them, because if
you don't...well...then you must be racist. See? It is a vicious and troubling cycle, because
their tactics trickle down to the common folk who in turn use the card as well. |

I agree. I portray them as normal people and not anything else, but they like to talk about it a
lot |

Racist! (kidding) I actually can't pull the race card, cause I'm white. And you can't be racist
to white people apparently! |

There is certainly a degree of the race card being pulled, but it is normally by ignorant, or lazy,
black people. |

Most colored people do, but not all. |

It does happen, it is very sad. My school friend used to say it all the time as a joke, much in
the same way Ali G went on to use it as a joke. "Is it because I is black". When he was older he
was very embarrassed about doing this.
I find this almost as bad as racism in itself.
I think society is to blame for this by making race such and issue, and by political correctness
banding the term racist around so flippantly. |

Although I most certainly do not agree with the fact that the creator of this topic chose to allow
some black people’s actions to speak for the all of them (I’m assuming the term “colored
people” refers to black people), I can’t say that I’ve never seen the incident described by
this topic’s description used before. By the way, I normally refer to African-Americans as
“black people” the same way I refer to Caucasians as “white people”. So, please do not try
to pull the “Race Card” on me during this debate. If you find the term “black people”
insulting, you probably get offended to easily and shouldn't even be entering a debate such as this. |
