Thats the third time I've seen you make a completely false accusation in almost as many posts. At least learn the words, there's no dignity in being a rude guy thats always wrong ^^

You don't have a sense of humor lying around somewhere? I consider ALL censorship hypocrisy, especially automated censorship. That's my opinion, so it cannot be factually wrong. I could explain why I hold this position but why bother, it's boring to explain the obvious and everyone smart enough can figure it out by themselves. And I'm not a guy, it's getting tired of the default masculinum that makes me use a picture of myself as avatar, but I guess that's not obvious enough.

I assume whatever other post you're referring to being a similar case.

Ive been wondering where the reoccurring claim was coming from also...
Hmmmm..... I doubt very much that he has come into contact with Hadendoa natives
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadendoa
so Id suspect the more common source of Rudyard Kiplings poem
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzy-Wuzzy
which praised them for breaking the famed British bayonet square using nothing but spears.
Seems like a reasonable grognard reference to the conversation that was going on.

Wir müssen die Juden ausrotten!

I guess referencing something like this is perfectly acceptable here than?
I don't see how your argument caries any weight.

A little bit "noble savage" style condescension, but certainly not malicious or overtly detestable.

he referenced a poem by someone who was also racist! that makes it totally fine

A derogatory term for a black person, especially one with fuzzy hair.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...=fuzzy%20wuzzy

But apprantly, fuzzy wuzzy is also part of the US defense language (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanchester%27s_laws). So it is more unintended racism.

I'm going to allow it. If Krol promises to not use the term anymore.

Also, lets stop this line of reasoning. It isn't related to the banning of Calahan.

(And it all these conversations distract me from my blitz).

PC blunder vs genocidal hatred.

Mismatched characterizations just look ridiculous :/

Ridiculous. I agree. Mismatched? Perhaps. But both are rules violations from what I see.

Do not post any material which is knowingly false, and or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, hateful, harassing, racist, obscene, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or that otherwise violates any local, state, national or international law or regulation.

Rules are rules.
