I tried to think what a wealthy, sheltered, Anglo woman might call "the Help".

That is more like what some neo-nazi would call people of color. In fact, that is what neo-nazis call people of color.

Well, I've never met a neo-nazi. It's nice to know that I'm only as creative as one of them.

I'm allowed to imagine what the Queen Mum called/calls people in the ghettos she'll never see up close....if this is also allowed:

I wasn't saying you were on a par with neo-nazis

No, more like flying over the ocean they're swimming in since my joke is their term.

"The Mud People" is now ruined for me. "The Help" will do I guess.

His name was Scott. I didn't know him well but we worked for the same outfit treeplanting in northern B.C. 3 summers ago. He was quiet but friendly. From Ontario. Studied Poli-Sci at Guelph. Anyway, we had a camp move and instead of moving during our day off he left the evening prior, on our night off. Hit a bull moose around dusk in his Toyota Tercel. Dependable little car but fails the Moose Test. Car: smushed. Moose: dead but in one piece. Scott: dead meat squashed.





Moose fun fact: Weighing in between 800 and 1200 pounds and capable of running nearly 40 mph, moose have a brain the size of a golf ball. Because of their speed, they often assume the least obstructed path is the best path away from danger. So a moose on a railroad track, for instance, will stay on that railroad track trying to outrun a freight train instead of veering off. I've seen this first hand with a yearling on a logging road. Thing wouldn't get off the road, just kept speeding up. Eventually it did veer off and went ass-over-tea-kettle in the ditch. Kind of comical in that unexpected "when nature fucks up" way. Gangly motherfuckers. Perfectly built to come through your windshield like a ton of hairy bricks.

Question(s) for Steve:

1. If you had clients at the studio who you heard utter a piece of 100% blatantly racist garbage like:

Everything posted in this thread.

Would you continue to work with the racist assholes, or would you tell them to fuck off?

2. If the answer is "I would tell him to fuck off," then why are the Forums any different?

(Please note that these questions are not related to an individual's right to free speech. These questions are related to what you, Steve, as an independent business owner, will and will not tolerate with regards to your business and the clients for whom you choose to work.)

Since it appears that Forum members can come on and type this kind of shit and have no repercussions from it, and if who knows how many hundreds of other Forum members can read this garbage and make no comment about it, then this Forum is a place that I do not want to be.

I'll be over at the Prison Planet forum for your daily Dr. Geek fix.

There is this hippy fella I see cruising around that I keep calling Captain Caveman. He does look just like him though. Nothin' but eyeballs a mouth and hair.

In a hippy bus as well.
