We're having some posts being reported for the use of racial slurs in this forum. While it is widely known that there is some racism that goes on in this forum, those users have found a way to dance around the issue enough that the majority of moderators of this website have deemed the behavior fine for now.

It's really not okay to me at all. I don't believe that people of color should be subjected to that shit over political affiliations. That said, I'm a firm believer in a majority consensus so it is what it is at this point.

That said, overtly racial slurs will result in bannings. It is a bullet point in the TOS of this website, and not much is out of bounds. One user has already been banned, and another one has been warned. If you insist on trying to dance around racist comments, please be prepared for a vacation if you use a term that is deemed racist by the moderators. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Uhhh, ok. This is apropos of absolutely nothing but thanks just the same.

Are you sure that he is a Mexican mouse? I know he speaks Spanish but I've always wondered if he was Mexican.

So you called him Speedy because you feel he's a Mexican mouse?

He is the fastest mouse in all Mexico.

How can you be sure? It's always claimed that he's the fastest mouse in all of Mexico, but it shows all the other mice in Mexico to be much slower and fatter. I think it is safe to assume that it is possible that he isn't from there.

Oh, here's something else I found out about Speedy from Wikipedia:

According to William Anthony Nericcio, the name derives from a joke about a Mexican man nicknamed "Speedy" either because of his premature ejaculation or quick copulation, though the name of the character was not intended to be derogatory.[1]

Nice tidbit of info. there.

That doesn't mean he's from Mexico. Usain Bolt is the fastest guy in a lot of places, that doesn't mean he's from there.

"Speedy Gonzales (commonly shortened to just Speedy) is an animated caricature of a mouse in the Warner Brothers Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons. He is portrayed as "The Fastest Mouse in all Mexico" with his major traits being the ability to run extremely fast and speaking with an exaggerated Mexican accent. He usually wears an oversized yellow sombrero, white shirt and trousers (Which is a common traditional outfit worn by men and boys of rural Mexican villages), and a red kerchief, similar to that of a reveler in the San Fermin festival. To date there have been 46 cartoons made either starring or featuring this character."

He has a long history of being a Mexican freedom fighter and lived in rural Mexican villages. He also has a cousin in Mexico, and speaks Spanish. It's not definitive but I think it is implied.

Did you hear about the Englishman with an inferiority complex? He thought he was the same as everyone else.

I'm sorry guys but I need to see a birth certificate. He could be Kenyan for all I know.

We already have one Kenyan rodent in the country.

So out of the blue, in the middle of a conversation about whether or not something Donger said was a racial slur, you felt the need to point out that Vailpass is a dick? I'm pretty sure it's intentional, but it just seemed like your comment was gratuitous to me.

BTW, I'm not sure whether J Diddy is a racist, fwiw.

I found great joy into walking it into that.
