I dare you to go to the Ninth Ward in NO. PERIOD. That's enough to get you killed right there. You don't even have to say anything. They'll mug/kill you for no reason. Of course, if you call a Ninth Ward resident King Kong and you don't even know him, it may get you killed/mugged a little faster than normal. Or they could take it as a sign of respect and throw some street cred. your way and you'll be like the innocent, but badazz white dude (Ethan Hawke) from Training Day. Anyway, no disrespect to New Orleans because I'm from there and live there (in a different part). But the 9th Ward is a little scary.
actually i think it is very relevant. it shows you how many people actually think and why being pc is necessary in the fake world. to preserve people's tender feelings. those that arent even affected such as the original poster find it their duty to point it out in order to feel better about themselves. we now have to protect others from freedom of speech. how sad. ironic yo
I read this thread when it was first written and wrote it off... how in the heck does this have 6 pages? However it happened, I'm adding to it. (That's probably how it happened.)
Totally different scenario and you must know it. Now you are digging yourself a hole. Was Shaq offended? Do you have an iota of evidence that he was? Why are YOU trying to make a big deal out of something that with slam dunk certainty, did not bother Shaq....with the possible exception of being called Bambi. Slow news day.
