OMG... that was SOOOOOO NOT PC!

I can believe I read the whole thing. Anyway...

Yay! Bree's back! And brainwashed, apparently. I'm not entirely sure if she's brainwashed, or if she wants to do it because of some other reason (IE, to save the other girls, save her family, etc.). If she's brainwashed, all they have to do is deprogram her somehow (easier said than done, I know). But if there's another reason, it's gonna get a lot more complicated.

I'm in the camp that thinks Alex planted the messages.

I'm still not a fan of the idea of Sarah/Daniel (putting me, apparently, in the vast majority), but Sarah really redeemed herself to me. She was being a brat at first, especially with that stupid idea of just jumping out of the car and running away, but the way she put herself at risk to help Bree was really wonderful.

And some things I wanted to quote:

That was the most racist comment I have ever seen in these threads! Congratulations. I have only read the first three pages, and, as soon as I came across this comment, I had to reply. I will continue to read the rest of the thread for further insight from my fellow fans whose comments are actually worth consideration.

This was truly offensive on so many levels. I am so pissed off right now that I can't even type exactly what I want to tell you. I just can't. Maybe I will PM you later when I collect my thoughts and find exactly how to tell you that you should be heartedly ashamed of yourself for posting such a comment! Even if I wasn't Mexican, I would be completely disgusted right now. I don't know who you are or what your life is like but I am beginning to come to some conclusions just by reading this comment. However, unlike you, I do not generalize nor do I assume things about individuals. So, as much as I want to throw you a lengthy explosion of rage in this reply....I will refrain from that. I don't know how someone can explain away what you posted but I....I won't attack you. I really want to. Maybe later. Who knows? Just realize the scope of your ignorance and bigotry.

And this is why everything has to be so politically correct these days.....it makes me sick!

I am sooooo outraged that you took offense to this! I could understand if this person said all Mexican people do is sit around and eat burritos and nachos but he/she didn't. It was not attacking in any manner. It was an innocent comment! Take it that way and quit being so sensitive and over dramatic.

Certainly you are entitled to your feelings as I am to mine. I am so damn tired of people being afraid to speak their minds because someone is going to be offended.

And that part about you not generalizing and making assumptions is complete bullshit. EVERYONE does, it's basic human nature.

Honestly, I can't tell what race the guy is. But the comment reminded me of some of my pot-head friends. LMAO

The Creators should know better than to leave us alone for this long...all we do is fight.

Or flirt!

On the racist note... My daughter is half Mexican... when it comes to true racism, it pisses me off to no end. I don't think that comment was racist, seeing as you can't even tell the race of the person. Is it racist to sing a song in another language and change the lyrics around a little bit?

I know I didn't post the comment to which you are referring...but I have to say that the racism isn't coming from from the original poster, but from you. You're the one who connected the person sitting there to being Mexican.

While we don't know the intent of the person, the words themselves are far from racist. It doesn't mention the person's race.

When I read it, I laughed at it because, to me, it looks like a drunk person "sleeping it off" --- perhaps he had too many margaritas at the neighboring restaurant?

And as Kristine said, she linked to the comment to her pot-head friends.


The point being, the racism link is your own.

Very well said. Thank you!

Whoa! Maybe we should take this somewhere else... if you'd really like me to be open with you.

Yes, please do! The frisson between you and Lurker is rapdily cresting the PG13/ R boundary

We don't need to de-virginize any poor tweens' ears here!!

But then again, you two are so fun to watch! lol. It's amusing, especially when we are all waiting for a new vid.

And about the whole racism thing, I agree with Joygasm on what Samara wrote. I wish people wouldn't take things so personally. I used to take things personally two or three years ago, but I found out it's MUCH easier to get along with everyone if you just don't take things to heart.

My comment or the racist fan's comment? I am confused.

=D> I concur, very well put.

Too many margaritas? Are you kidding me? Nachos? Burritos? Siesta? Over excitement over a nickle? I don't see how this is not about a particular group of people! Was the fan only referring to a drunk person? No. Race was clearly implied. I don't see how you can explain it otherwise. I mentioned my ethnicity but I DID NOT SAY THAT SHE WAS SLANDERING MEXICANS!!! It could be anyone from Latin descent. Where are they anyways? Am I the only one in this thread? Seriously, I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone! The fan never said the race of who she/he was belittling but it was clearly a racist joke.

So, what does consititute as a racist slander because I would like to know! She was the one who assumed a person's race and not me! Her word choice and the wonderful joke at the end about the nickle....And you gathered she was talking about a wild nieghborhood party? WHAT?!

Plus, I directed my reply directly at the fan and not at you two. It was specifically for that person. It really doesn't involve any of you. Yes, I should have taken it to a PM instead. I realized that while I was typing my comments. And I believe that I mentioned that I wouldn't go any further within the thread with this fan until I was a bit more constructive with my rage. Really, you are the ones taking it further. AND IT DIDN'T EVEN INVOLVE ANY OF YOU!
