They Call Me Manix

PermaBan plenty of other places on the internet for personal growth.

There are quite a few that were offended with Manix's narrow minded and racist comments - CigarSarge - Hugh Jorgan - I'm sure GrandCru - Neuro doesn't seem very happy either. I believe people with the thoughts and beliefs that Manix displayed are very worrisome. Tolerance of other cultures is VERY necessary.

I'm very sure Manix is sorry for his making the post - but I'm not convinced he fully understands the repercussions of his comments... And until that time....

I say that although it is a LONG apology and he is 10000000 times sorry for his comments.... he does not realize what repercussion could occur from those types of comments. Although those comments were made on a BB..... which alot of people feel is anonymous..... this BB is not anonymous. Alot of people trade cigars and are included in box passes were trust is a big issue....... How would TCMM feel if he needed to send a box pass to a person of a different race/sexual orientation or religion than himself. Would you do it...... I say "A leopard can't change his spots".... there is no room on this BB for a racist bigot.

TCMM...... you don't know what race I am...... or what sexual preference I prefer (no comments please).... would you do a trade with me...... It is a possibility I might not be the "same" as you.

Did you apologize ?........ YES

Do you completely understand what you did ?.................. I don't think so

[bigpoppapuff]

in the interest of "too much fun"......think of the possibilities of letting him back and see if he hangs himself....if he thought he got it bad now...it'd be so much fun to grind him fine....


..i'm going with the cruelty factor here.....lol....

Let him back, crap...I really tried to stay out of this and neutral as I felt it was better handled by the more experienced members here, but to be honest, as a member of a minority, the longer this goes on the madder I get...and now this racist jerk has shown up on another popular board (which will remain nameless here) and you can believe I will be watching his posts...as far as I'm concerned that long winded, illiterate, rambling racist rant was as bad as what Amanda did and I think his ban should be permanent even if there were no rules in place governing it...if a poll were thrown up for it you can be sure I would be happy to vote first and let it be known that I voted for a permanent ban...racism of any sort does not belong on an public board anytime, under any circumstances, unless you are a member of a white supremacist or nazi board, which by the way, would be a good place for TCMM to go as he'd be able to vent and hate as much as he wants to...I have never called anyone by this at any time on any board but I am so mad at that racist POS TCMM that I finally feel it's appropriate...yep, GGiese, you got it right when you said, "Neuro doesn't seem very happy either."

He could very well be genuinely sorry. He may even have completely revamped his views because of this episode. Tough. I am sure many murderers honestly feel bad later, maybe even would be perfectly decent people who would never ever consider hurting another person ever again if let out of jail. They don't get out though. The incarceration is not simply to protect people, it is a punishment. I look at a banning the sme way. It is not just to keep his racist views of the board, it is a punishment for spouting something so innapropriate on the boards. Regardless if he is sorry he must deal with the consequences of that. As much as part of me wants to give him another chance, I would also have to vote permanent ban. Or at least a looong time.

I just re-read the entire "I hate stupid people" thread, and while he even admits to breaking the rules by not posting those comments in the politics thread (ignoring the racist comments) he just become a complete bitch about the whole thing.

Saying that I'm democrat means I can't be a christian...

If he does come back, I'm out....

TSC (silentchamber) will be the next that should be banned. even if you agree with it, he should had known better then and keep him talking. should had told him to stop.
