Is EGBDF racist

[Snouter]

Every Good Buy Does Fine is what everyone who has taken a music class knows is a way to memorize the lines in a staff of music notation. But "boy" is a derogatory term for afro-americans and to imply that a "boy" does "fine" by being "good" suggests he behave in a civilized manner to stay out of jail in the white man's world which is insensitive to cultural differences.

Haven't seen a stretch like that since yoga class.

Besides which --- that's a Stateside configuration...

Let us know when the OP is arrested and maybe we'll care. IMO, a lifetime sentence in the Rubber Room would be appropriate.

Mod Note:

Amazingly enough -- this is NOT a top political issue. BUT --- it's well worth fighting over in some other forum..

"Is EGBDF racist"

The stupidity that compels most on the right to contrive 'controversies' out of non-issues is indeed remarkable.

Followed by the stupidity common to most on the right to propagate the ridiculous myth of 'PC police.'

Here's the fascinating thing to me: He may actually have talked himself into believing it.

Every time he tries this, I post the above list of honest liberals. He never comments. I think he may just block it out.

Ideologues can talk themselves into damn near anything. Literally.

I was told boy was a derogatory term for white boys.
