Get a grip people... if your ums are climbing and swinging around in a small tree and killing it.. they are acting like monkeys. I dont care if they are Asian, white, purple, black, martians, male, female.. or what the fuck ever.

I call my um a yard ape. That is what he acts like.

Overly sensitive jackasses.

I wonder if the mother of these little tree climbing monkeys get offended if people call her Ma'am in the super market... maybe it is Sexist! *squeals in shock*

Some times people just need to step back and take a breather.

That's so ridiculous! According to that article she didn't even call them monkeys, she said they were playing like monkeys!

I correct anyone who calls my kid anything other than the given name or words like "child". Words like monster, brat, hooligan, little shit... no. I won't put up with it. But someone just saying something like "they're playing like monkeys" is completely harmless and innocent. I don't care what color they are!

I am having more than a little trouble figuring out how calling children swinging in a tree monkeys is racist or how calling a woman in the grocery Ma'am is sexist.

That's funny, my current favorite reference to humanity is refer to us all as "retarded monkeys".

It must be true, look at all the shit we get upset over. Something is not right with the your typical human brain.

perhaps you should look at this issue from a black mother's eyes. i personally wouldn't want mine referred to as half-breed wetbacks by anyone.

merely saying from one who was called a n-word monkey at age of 7

I'm curious as to why she interfered, they weren't in her yard. If she thought they might get hurt, why not go ring the neighbor's doorbell. She does seem to be a busybody.

I didn't read the article yet, though I do intend to take a look through it.

Based on what I've read in this thread however, some religious types might argue that by calling humans, monkeys, that we are forcing the evolution thought process on their religious creationist minds.

If they can't enjoy the stick up their ass, someone should shove it in a bit further!

edited to add: monkey see, monkey do. It's ridiculous to feel the need to remove her as pledge delegate when she clearly states that she was referring to their actions and not their genepool. Though, even if she were referring to their genepool, I'm an evolutionist and readily accept that all of us, regardless of color, have a little bit of monkey in them.

and I was called a half breed and watched my sister and brother get the shit kicked out of them.. but there comes a time when people who do not mean a racial slur.. and you have to realize if kids are dangerously swinging about in a tree.. they *are* acting like monkeys... I dont care if they take mini me and paint him up to look like the blue man group midget size... they were acting like monkeys.

Hell most white folk dont even know of the monkey racial slur.

Now if she called them all porch monkeys then I personaly would go Medieval on her ass.

But we at some point have to get a grip and realize it isnt all about race. You act crazy and swing in a tree a monkey referance is bound to be pulled out.

Holy roadapples, Batman! Someone scolded a kid! It has to be racist! What a load of crap.

I work with wee ones everyday, and if we had to watch our tongues for anything in a reasonable vocabulary (obviously not hate-filled typical epithets) that someone might construe as racist, they wouldn't have a single person who fits the requirements.

I'm not agreeing with this crazy woman, but I think most white people know that calling a black person a monkey is a racial slur. The one I didn't realize for a long time was, "boy." I didn't know "boy" was offensive until I was in my late teens. In the South, you call other men boy all the time. As in, "What's that ol' boy's name at the gas station?" or "What are you boys up too this weekend?" or even, "Hey boy, watch out for that car coming!"

Words can't hurt you unless you let them, and I get a little sick of the playground, moronic attitude of people that want to play the victim card all the time. People like that revel in it. They love acting dramatic and offended over the remarks of the ignorant. It makes them feel important and gives them some adventure in their otherwise meaningless, boring lives. People need to grow up and stop being......PUSSIES. If that was offensive or sexist, than so be it.

An old English term is "cheeky monkey" when someone just said something (usually cheeky and funny) or kids were giving a bit of cheek. It's never been said in an offensive way.

It's getting to the point I think I'll just have to stop talking so I don't inadvertently offend someone.

Haven’t looked to see if anyone pointed it out yet; but according to the report the quote doesn’t match the claim.

quote:

A Barack Obama supporter has given up her role as a pledged delegate after the campaign found “unacceptable” her description of her neighbor’s children as “monkeys,” which she says she called them because they were climbing in trees.

quote:

Dametta Stewart, a parent of one of the kids, alleges that Ramirez-Sliwinski came outside and told the kids to “quit playing in the tree like monkeys,” according to the police report. Stewart told police she was upset and felt the comment was racist since her children are African-American, Kilbourne said.

Playing like monkeys and being monkeys, are two differnt things.

Not that it should be a big deal.

What ever happened to “sticks and stones”?

Read the article folks. It was the Obama campaign that found her words to be unacceptable. The Democratic party came and told her she had to drop out as a pledged delegate (for Obama), because his campaign (he) found it unacceptable.

And this clown really thinks he can be President.

My cats are black and white, and I'm always saying theyre more like monkeys with the tricks they get up to.

No wonder they dont talk to me
