I remember a couple of mixed race students who would misbehave, and it was a sure bet that they would cry racist when facing punishment. The line was usually something like,"You are only picking on me because I'm black".

I don't know what DNA you're packin', but it's obvious that you're a fully acclimated American.

You got a tractor collection, fer fug's sake.

the so-called "race card" holds value, or it wouldn't be played. if no reason to do so. it's valueless at that point.

how does one make the race card valueless in this day and age?

merit is one thing, but skin color holds value?

if race doesn't hold value, what good is it?

the new money system is the EBT card?

There was a black clerk at our Post Office who always had an attitude, I never took any crap from her and her response was that she didn't know why I was mad at her for just doing her job. She liked to give me the third degree whenever I mailed a book via media mail, quoting the rules for media mail to which my reply was that I was familiar with the regulations and I didn't appreciate being accused of trying to get a cheaper rate for material that didn't qualify for media mail rates. Her response was to go crazy stamping media mail on every surface of my package where other clerks stamped the package only once. Fortunately she now works in the back and has no contact with the public, apparently her supervisor was getting complaints from customers about her attitude. The other black clerks are perfect ladies and gentlemen, never had any problems with them their attitude is always cheerful.

Playing the race card is usually a last ditch effort by an unethical assh*** to avoid the consequences bad job performance and who happens to be part of a minority group.

I've tried it myself in my house. I don't get very good results with it. Derisive laughter is usually the norm.


Broncos are officially the worst team in the nation this year.

I used to try to play the mick card every now and then. But all I ever got for that was "No Irish Need Apply".

Then I had my DNA checked and it came back 61% English. Hell far,...most of the English ain't 61% English.

I don't get it. I can dance,...sing,..and once upon a time I could pick a banjo a little bit. I never needed braces and when the mood strikes I'm a fair to middlin' raconteur.

What kinda Englishman can dance, sing, has straight teeth, and can bullshit?

I don't know chit about your teeth or your dancing, but you're far more than middling as a raconteur.

Yup, anyone tells you their race OR religion out of the blue is a POFS looking for preferential treatment.

Biggest race card is EO and AA
24 yrs in the army
Some mutha fuggers promoted way beyond their ability
To senior ranks, enlisted and officers alike.

I had 1SG,s and CSM,s at times that couldn't plan an assault on a
hot dog stand at Coney island if push came to shove. EO and AA quota promoted idiots..

If you work in a gun shop, you'll get the race card thrown at you weekly. At least once a week I shoot down a potential straw sale and I'm a racist for it. Almost as often I refuse a sale because they come in smelling like they just left a weed party hosted by Snoop Dog and Willie Nelson.
