My whole point on that days ago was that yes, Europeans are largely considered white. If you see a European on the street and somebody asks, hey what race do you think he/she is? you are going to say white. Olive skin doesn't mean shit, we all look white. HCP looks white to me. I look white to you. That's my point.
Another thing that annoys me about you. You call on the mods ALL the time with threads YOU dislike so they can slide YOU a favor and get rid of it because the fucking camera guy for the Blazers said so. hmmmmmmmm
Whoa! This is clearly an attack on the individual if there ever was one. Cut the lad some slack Dude, the kid makes the place better.
It's always been a little tough.... I think I would consider people from Spain, Italy, France, Germany white. But for some reason, I don't consider people from central or South America white. Never really have. Don't know it that's correct or not. My mother is full blooded Mexican and my father's family is from Prussia/Germany. On all my paperwork I'm Hispanic.......dad left us and I don't claim that side. I definitely don't look Latin, other than an easy tan in the summer, but that's my blood. That family raised me and that's what I claim. I lay it on thick white the whole Hispanic non white thing on here for fun, but that is what I claim.
I don't think dviss was 'acting stupid' at all. I think he was giving his opinion about a topic he has extensive experience dealing with. I know for a fact he wasn't telling people to shut the fuck up. That's what I had an issue with.
I didn't ask anybody to get rid of anything. Just thought you were out of line calling this guy ignorant and telling him to shut the fuck up is all. And as far as the mods go, they don't owe me any favors. I'm compinsated very well by Denny to even post here, so I'm doing just fine. Interesting that you have multiple issues with me, yet until this, you didn't even register on my end. And I'm actually not just a 'fucking camera guy for the Blazers'. I am an Emmy Award winning EVS operator in the field of LIVE Sports Broadcasting. In my field, that's about as high as you can go. I have worked multiple Olympics around the world among other prestigious events, SuperBowls, NBA Finals, US and British Opens, PGA Champ and The Masters. The list goes on. If you'd like, my college did a 15 minute documentary on me and my accomplishments. I can load that up on my Dropbox and shoot you a link. I've done many podcasts where I'm a featured guest on if you'd like links to listen to. To see where I started and how I scratched and clawed my way to where I am today. Although I am good friends with 'fucking camera guys for the Blazers' I believe I have earned a bit more respect than just assuming that's what I do. You need to get your shit straight before you start calling people out the way you are. My jokes and attacks go both ways and we have fun with it. You on the other hand are being flat out disrespectful. Let me know if this response was ok or if I insulted you with all my accomplishments. And just think, I didn't even mention my tour of duty as a Military Policeman in the Army during the first Golf War. Let me know if you want my stats from that as well, son. #ConfirmedKills
I'm so sorry will you forgive me almighty god hcp?! Please?! Look. I said shut the fuck up and he had to be a bit borderline racist towards white people. If that's not disrespectful to you then I don't know what is. And it's funny coming from you because you are disrespectful to new members who don't know your douche way of joking. Okay though
Didn't know who you were before this forum. You still are the camera guy for the blazers to me. But uhhhhh yeah cool story, wanna tell it again?
This is ab9ut what I thought you would post. Not acknowledging that you just might have been out of line.
Right so shut the fuck up out of line but damn near racist comments isn't. Wow. Now if I was black and he was white this would be completely different and you know it, you would just never admit it. I would like you to acknowledge some shit too but you never would. Fuck off
[ Since when did Moler Barber College get an audio visual department??? And how many holes did you win by in the Golf War???????
You seem to not have a handle on what I do for a living.....you throw a job title "fucking camera guy" at me as if you were trying to insult me. I've had menial minimum wage paying jobs. I don't look at people differently because of how they get the bills paid. Just wanted to clarify. But since you were attempting to judge me by my occupation, you care to share with us what you do for living? I won't judge you by it, I already think you're an immature little angry prick.
You don't know me young buck. You don't know how 'd handle different situations. I damn sure wouldn't continue to tell other grown men to "fuck off" and "shut the fuck up" that's for damn sure. You don't treat people like that just because they have a different view of things bro. How were dviss' comments racist towards you? Oh my bad, you told him to "shut the fuck up" and he was ignorant because of "damn near racist comments". How would you react if his comments were ACTUALLY racist. Every now and then one of you come thru here. I don't have any experience with internet forums like this. This is the only one I've ever been on. Is this normal behavior?
Nate you know how I am on here. Having fun, busting chops. But I don't think I've ever made it real. Never made it personal where I come at somebody like that. Must be a generational thing. You get your ass whipped for that where I grew up. I have never said something on here I wouldn't say to one of your faces. Most of my BS would be laughed at over beers. These kids should be careful. AND THAT'S COMING FROM ME!
There has been angry people on the internet forever my man. We definitely don't have a monopoly on that here. And there's usually a lot of emotion and anger associated with politics or racism.
Thats why I usually stay away from the politics and religion threads, but thought this one would be interesting. Sad people can't just talk about stuff.
