BriceOK, I see the humor. Nevertheless, I think taking pot shots at FLOTUS is in bad taste. Many blacks have pronounced derrieres as a result of their DNA. Those are thermal flywheels, a term coined by my esteemed brother-in-law. They exist to enable man to survive bad times. There is a term for it I learned in Anthro. about 40 years ago, but can't recall.
I thoroughly disapprove of Mr. Obama, but maitain that we should preserve the dignity of the office.

Why?
She certainly takes shots at us all the time---if she doesn't want to be politicized--she should stay out of politics.

Lamaryeah, we should be supporting an all the time skoot shooter.

AR-PatriotHe is a friend of mine,lives just down the road,has been on the ARF for about 7 yrs. and is a little confused as to why this was found to be so offensive that he has been suspended by a moderator because they deemed his post to be racist.Do they suspend every off color joke? must keep 'em migty busy,as I have seen quite a few. Or is it just because it involved The current regime?
What difference does it make how I know?Just respectfully asking for an explanation and how he can get back in their good graces?

twoseventyNo difference. Just wondered. I find it nice to note that some people are still offended by offensive behavior. Seems kind of rare anymore. My question was how do you know if the removal was because of racist content. Did the moderator tell him so. Maybe it was because of spelling, punctuation, incomplete sentences or poor subject-verb agreement.

wasbeemanDid the moderator tell him specifically that he was suspended for racist remarks? Which moderator? Perhaps the moderator should weigh in here with an explanation.

AR-PatriotI was hoping the moderator who suspended him would enlighten us.He was specifically notified that he had been suspended for racist content.He thought he was contributing to the joke and did not mean to be racist.I believe if you look,it could be taken that way,but that was not the intent.He can't post anything to ask,so I am trying to help him out. The joke was off color,I suppose,but I suspect it offended someone who Has a political leaning toward the current Regime.If I'm wrong,I would like the moderator to enlighten me,and my friend would like to be reinstated. I think that contacting him first to inform him it was deemed offensive would have been a better way to handle this.He is a regular,and been on the forum for quite a while,is VERY knowledgable about firearms,reloading,and history in general and IS an asset to this board. He enjoys the site and was not looking to offend anyone,and as I said,I have seen worse,though those folks may have been suspended too.I wanted the moderator who iniated this action to please explain it to us in the first place and perhaps suggest a remedy to my friend.

Swamp_FoxI think the racist charge is based on the implication that a Wookie can't tell the difference between a Death Star and Michelle's ass.
It's not nice to make fun of Wookies.
