this is going to be short and sweet and you can consider it to be a line in the sand - an absolute boundary.
no posts, post topics or discussions with racist or bigoted overtones will be tolerated. if you can't make your point without resorting to such ignorant, petulant stupidity, then this is not the place for you. a person's skin color has absolutely nothing to do with their character and will not be used here at this forum to demean anyone no matter who they are. if you want to carry on like that in your home, then we don't care, but be advised that at the handloaders bench, we are better than being hateful toward folks because of their skin color.
henceforth, any such posts, topics or discussions that come to the attention of the administration will be immediately deleted and the offending member will be sent a PM telling them why. any further bigotry will result in a swift and permanent banning and deletion of the offending member's account as well as a prominent spot on the wall of shame.
this will be the only notice of our policy on the subject - if you miss it, then too bad.
one final note on the subject - we threw an administrator, a board founder and good friend out over this, so we will have no qualms about doing it to anyone else who has a hard time learning this rule.
that is all - i think it is pretty straight-forward, but any questions, comments etc. about this can be posted here.

I say Bravo and thanks for that.
We shouldn't have any patience with that sort of nonsense here.

I agree 100%. I have some very good friends whose skin color is different from mine, they have eaten at my table as I have at theirs. I trust them with any thing I have, as they do me.

skin color matters not attitude however matters alot all humans bleed the same color dark red or brite red depending upon the vein or artery ,if i perchance manage to help someone with my thoughts or experience then i did something worthwhile , the skin color doesnt matter but their saftey does !

Kudos the the rulemakers !
I was watching some of that racist kkk trash on youtube a couple days ago. Its enough to turn my stomach.
Judging of skin color ought to be punishable by a steel toed booting back to whatever cave the racist was born in.
Its a new world out there folks. Get with the program.

He made them too, just like the squid and the roaches - gotta have balance in all things...... 
I've seen us all get a bit hot politically here - I sure have too! - but haven't seen anything outright racial or ethnically bad. Hope we can maintain that level!

Well,my two cents here.I would be a dead man had it not been for a good man and a good NCO that saved my life when I was a dumb green young Private in combat.He happened to be black in skin color and as good a man and the best soldier I ever seen.
It is my take that people who judge a race as a whole are piss brains.
There is bad in every race,thats not deniable.
And everyone here knows that.I judge people one at a time,by their actions. I truly could care less what color you are,just treat me with respect and I will return the same as it should be.
This place is founded on the belief that all are equal here and I will enforce that when I see shit regarding racial insults.
If we cant as men talk without reverting to racial insults and slurs that are ignorant reflections of a time long gone then it must fall upon the staff here to tell offending parties it is time to leave..
just my two cents

One of my dearest friends is a "black man". He has helped me when no one else would and I would do most anything for him or his family. I have eaten in his home and he in ours. I cannot think of the times we have talked about serious matters-even racially charged ones. He is a man!! I do not judge anyone by their skin color. LOL, we even fussed about obammy and McCain but I could not sway him. Respect comes from knowing who and what a man is. You cannot give a man integrity and self respect-that is something that comes from inside--no matter what you look like on the outside.

Seems both plenty clear, and plenty reasonable to the likes of me.
I do get a bit testy sometimes with the willfully stupid, deliberately ignorant ("ignant" lol), and those too lazy to be bothered with much beyond breathing and eating (if it is delivered).
Unfortunately, I have found those folks all over the place, in all colors, nationalities, genders, all over the place.
In the same places, I've found great folks too in my travels.

Good to see this guys.
While I am a cracker, I'm talking REALLY white here, skin color should never be an issue on a board.
I lost one of my best friends a couple weeks ago. He happened to be black, a former marine, and one of the best dads and scout leaders ever. RIP Chris! You are missed my friend.
