I tell people not to take it personally, not that I do it myself, but there is a feeling of anonimitity (sp) when playing online games, especially when you can talk/text. You can say whatever you want without any real repercussions. That is why people of all ages tend to say these things. I've also heard that its a kind of stress relief too. But the only reason that there is such a debate about this is because the words that are said are taboo right now. If I brought someone from the early 20th century and started screaming "jerk" or another word that we, now, hold as an "acceptable insult", that person would probably be pretty offended because that word was taboo at the time. Its all about perspective.

Hm, many would think that I would be racist if I believe illegal immigrants should go back to there country and come back legally. You would probably think (ooh a mexican racist), but how is that so when my mother is mexican? I speak of anyone who comes in illegally. Hey, it's a double standered in the rest of the world; why not here? Even Mexico holds up those standards better than us, and there gov't isn't very much to be hyped about. And if I sound closed minded, than so be it.

this is why i cant wait for halo 3, when theres a racist person there, if he is on my team i would lets say weaken him when he enters a battle or if he is about to die from an enemy and comes to me for support ill simply throw down a grenade at his feet by mistake. now if hes on the opposite team i wont say a word but simply go extra hard on him and when he dies by my hands i'll t bag his head.Antox-RX8
or better yet, simply hit the back button and highlight the name of the offender and hit the X button. voila! silenced!

[QUOTE="DeadBullet"]Yeah I get you, allmost every time a ignorant person tells me "go back to mexico" or "you freakin beaner", but the assho*** dont realize im from spain, america is a VERY racist country.warz989

People in America are racist because we have such a diverse culture. Its a mix of a lot of ethnicities (hence the name country of immigrants)and obviously theres going to competition/hatred between different races/people.

Don't try to justify a country's racism. Racism is just wrong period. No matter where you are, there is no excuse. For the live thing though, I hope something can be done, or prevented, like something that bleeps out the words when it hears you say it. They use those on the radio, so its not like that tech doesn't exist but, it might not be practical. Iono but something should be done.

It's because all these nerdy little kids who get beat up at school have the Xbox to hide behind. If they tried to pull that sh*t at school or anywhere else, they'd get their asses beat.

Is it racism when your country is being invaded illegally? Where do you draw the line?

Well, the thing about "something should be done" is something that was said far longer than we can imagine. It well never stop.

Just outperform them in whatever game you're playing any way you can and laugh haughtily at their racist remarks as they continue to lose. If you give them power to get to you hardcore then their mission is complete, take it away and start your own mission.

You really can't stop racist comments on x box live. You pretty much just have to learn to ignore them. Don't talk back,cause it only fuels the fire.If you act like it doesn't bother you, then they stop. It does get annoying sometimes, cause after a while, you just get tired of hearing it. It is the only reasonx-box live isn't as fun as it could be,especially on awesome games like gears of war or something else.

Guys it will never end. To me its not that big of a deal. Yes i have ran into plenty of racists. I ran into a straight up black supremacist once. No lie. I also had another piece of trash keep calling me the "n" word even though i'm not black and I don't listen to rap. He just thought he was cool using such a "naughty" vocabulary word.

whatever you do, don't talk back to them and call them deragotory words based on THEIR race. You can't beat racism with more racism.

Don't fuel the fire. Becuase you could really turn that person into a the racist that they are manifesting.

And, to say "just unplug your headphone"... that isn't the point! how about "just keep your racist comments to yourself" instead? If a criminal kills a woman walking down the street a night, it's like blaming the woman for walking down the street and not the criminal for committing the crime.

Can't we all just get along?? I personally think everyone is a little racist wether they realize it or not. Most people make snap judgements based on others cultures and/or race. I only have a problem with rude players over xbox live.

Please don't hold my opinion against me, just my thoughts.

You know what I say? Unless Racism is used for a cause of direct harm to another/or prevent someone from doing something cause of race, people can feel anyway they want. If people want to hate Mexicans, Blacks, English, w/e...they have a right to voice their opinion and you have a right to ignore/mute them. That's what I hate about society today, we abolosihed segregation, but now it's becoming a crime to feel a certain way about certain races of people. I know it's very retarded/narrow minded to hate someone cause they are black or Mexican or Asian...but they have a right to hate whoever they want as long as they don't try to harm someone directly as a result. Verbal opinion should not be crippled because you think it's wrong they hate certain races. I'm sorry, I won't report someone cause of racist language, cause that's just short of censorship, and I hate censorship, honest opinion reigns over all.
Personally, I love everyone, unless they give me a real reason to hate them. But I also love free speech no matter how messed up it is. Free speech is not to be limited.

You bring up a good point.

I wouldn't say everyone is a little "racist," but perhaps prejudice or hold some stereotypical view of people of other races. This is actually normal and inherit to humans because it's part of our group-cohesion of survival. You don't have to be a genius to figure out that whites will tend to be friends with whites, asians with asians, blacks with blacks, etc... Because of commonality of culture, interests, and background.

However, it is wrong to purposfully judge someone based on their skin tone, or degrade them because they are different from you. Unfortunately, this will always be a problem with humans.

I remember watching a video on Court TV of a black man beating an elderly man next to the eldery man's car in Holywood on the sidewalk in broad daylight. What amazed me is how the people ignored the situation and walk right by. Now is this racism; fear of the black man? "It's not my problem"? What's your answer?
