Daniel Negreanu a Racist?
http://www.gambling911.com/gambling-...st-081009.html
As far as I am concerned, whether you agree with DN or not in his post, he is very very far from being racist with those words. I have browsed G911 for a long time here and there, and while it has long been accepted as a particularly BS site that does find breaking news in the online world occassionally, I think this article goes too far and is just shameful.
BTW, on multiple occasions it seems G911 gets their 'breaking news' from 2+2's very own: NVG. I wish I was kidding.

Re: Daniel Negreanu a Racist?
+1 for what a POS (author, not DN). quoting a blog and prefacing it with 'OMG look how racist daniel negreanu is' is not an article.

Re: Daniel Negreanu a Racist?
The douche who wrote that article is racist. When you infer that somebody else is racist and they aren't racist, then the person making the claim is a racist. There was nothing racist about what Negreanu said.
The word racist doesn't really carry much weight anymore, especially in political topics. People throw it around far too freely and playing the race card is usually a sign of weakness and it shows a lack of intelligence.

Being called fat is not exactly the same as being called a racist by somebody.
And yes, the people who call other people racists are usually themselves racist. Just look at that dumb professor and friend of Obama who called the cop a racist recently. It is truly the defense of the weakminded.
The word racist doesn't mean much anymore, it's like the boy who cried wolf. It's like calling somebody a nazi on the internet.

yes because black people and other minorities have never been and aren't currently being discriminated against.

Not a big issue for me, almost everybody is discriminated against in one way or another. Nobody gets special treatment from me.
