Ronee... I think this was funny. No, it was very, very funny. That does not make me racist. Fuck. I was born in a country (USA)where jokes are made frequently about my ethnicity (Mexico, you know, beaners). I make fun of myself all the time. If this would have been said about a couple of beaners talking like, "Hey, ese, what ju been ap tu, fu? Gad bless ju, puto,"... I would have laughed just the same.
Maybe I should just pull out the card everybody uses to prove they're not racists lol... ok, here it goes:
No, Ronee! I have black friends! I swear!
Pointing around: "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, fuck you, I'm out!"

Try it in the hood with that disclaimer first! Everyone will have a good laugh!
You people are pathetic!
I posted this as an example of the hypocrisy of christians in particular. That the two conversations were between people of color was the backdrop to present the real point. That's why I said it "May offend christians" in the title, and not, "May offend (insert race here)". Do you see it now?
P.S.
You seem a bit disturbed, or mad, or hurt, or... Smile once in a while. It's ok to laugh.

People gang-up like knats around here and I get itchy! But, most here know that I have a sense of humor...and I call a spade a spade!

A stereotype? I don't think that image represents all blacks. And I think they would agree.
I'm italian. But that doesn't mean I would cut you up into little pieces like the mafia! And I don't think I would want you talking about my heritage in that way.... because I'm not proud of that image! And wish to transcend it.
I think I could accept a line or 2 of that talk. But to go on and on is...well...just unnecessary.

Point to me exactly where anyone alluded that that image represents all blacks.

its a stereotype... then [read on] from the op...to see where it goes.
Would you type the op up with your name on it and put it on the bulletin board at your place of employ?

Irrelevant to your premise of it being a stereotype.

How is an accurate representation of an event a stereotype?
Sure, I would put it up, as long as everyone I worked with was smart enough to realize that I was just quoting what I heard and not an idiot that thinks I'm making some sort of insensitive racial statement.
