    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bad Guy WARNING....Nick Nistico "Precision reptile labs"

I don't mean racism is hilarious. I mean the idea of it is ridiculous. I laugh at the ignorance.

I cried every day as a child, after being beat up, had my hair ripped, rocks thrown at me. And not just the kids, the teachers were jerks too. The teachers would purposely put me in situations to get beat etc.

I deal with this from my own family. I am not liked, because I am friends with "the coloureds" and "the gays" which to them is a huge sin for some reason.

I learned to ignore the ignorance.. Shrug it off. Someone calls me something, I just roll my eyes, walk away.

People call me fat too.. and so on and so on. People are cruel. If they stop being racist, they will be something else.


If I let everything people said to me, get to me.. I would shoot myself.


That was my point..

Racism is not only words- there are people whose lives and families have been ruined. People who are bright and capable, but who have been sidelined from life, and their dreams, because of their race. But it doesn't stop there. Those people's families suffered too- not only financially, but emotionally. Little kids seeing their parents labor at low paying jobs when they were capable of many more contributions to their family and to society.

And then of course there is history, genocide and massacres, women and children. Is that funny?

You think words are meaningless? Tell that to some little kid who wants to be proud of his family, but hears these miserable epithets thrown at those he loves. Ask the kid how he felt the first time he heard those words, and they were directed at him. That's not funny.

Wasted lives, wasted dreams, on both sides. Racism is miserable and disgusting and I see no humor in it at all.

You seriously need to watch some comedy. Lighten up. The fact that people focus so closely on it, and are so offended by it, is the reason it is so powerful. Take that power away, make the words something to laugh about, be it black or white, mexican or latino or chinese, japanese... whatever.... Take that power away, and the words lose their effectiveness on a person. saying swearwords used to be taboo, right? Now they are said so much that people joke around with them!!


Watch some Carlos Mencia or something...... seriously. America isnt quite so tightassed anymore. Do you see Brandi yelling things out in the streets at people? or starting riots? NO. Why? Because shes a normal person with a sense of humor who isnt ashamed of some dirty words and surrounds herself with people who are just as likeminded as her. Does she hate people enough to destroy their lives with a few choice words? I highly doubt it.
 
Off Topic (Racism)

I personally think this thread has gone way off-topic, however I feel there are a few issues that need to be cleared up regarding the previous pages concerning racial slurs. First off, I do not judge people by the color of their skin. I am white, and have had several african-american friends over the past years. Racism is viewed differently in different parts of the country. Unfortunately, In South Florida, The majority of all the Gangs, Crimes, Violence ect.. are made up 90% by African Americans, Haitians & Jamaicans. Everyone has an opportunity to succeed in life. Times have changed since the Martin Luther King days. Most employers are actually required to hire employees from various race ethnics even if they are not the most qualified for their position. Down here, there are those that choose to work and make a decent living and those that choose to make their living by stealing from others and receiving free handouts. There is an absolute problem when I see (2) African-American families paying for over $800 in groceries and baby products (all) with food stamps at the local Walmart when they all have apple I-phones, wearing $200 sneakers and driving a Lexus SUV. Why don't I get free groceries? Why do I go to work 50 hrs a week so I can pay all my bills on time. Why am I paying for people to get a free ride in life with increased taxes. Am I the stupid one here because I follow the rules? Getting back to my point, I believe people have a different outlook on racism in different geographical areas. For the most part, There is a huge difference. There are (white people) and there are (white-trash). There are Blacks (African-Americans) and there are Niggers. People are judged by their actions, not the color of their skin. Just like everything in life, their are good ones and their are bad ones. :thumbsup:
 
As a morbidly obese, elderly, lesbian, black woman, I am offended by all of this nastiness!
Somebody hold my earings, cause I'm about to raise some hell!
There is a thread in hell where all of this has been discussed. I say keep it there. Why was this thread brought back up to the top only to comment on the racial aspects after that thread was created. If you wanna say he is a racist, say it. Don't discuss racism itself on this thread...pretty please?!
 
1) Racists always are the first to mention their african american friends
2) Your little story about the families at wal-mart is clearly told through your racist vision, I'm sure there are just as many white people taking advantage of the system.
3) I'd love to see the real studies that say in florida 90% of the crime is committed by non-whites, alongside the census data for the same region.
4) Your distinction between "Blacks" and "niggers" is a classic racist cop out.

Its ok if you're racist, really. Just don't pretend you're not while writing a post that screams of racism.

GO TO HELL!!

No, really! There is a thread over there just for this!! You don't even have to start a new thread. There is a reason that hell requires a membership. There is no place for this discussion on the BOI, or anywhere else on fauna where people who don't want to engage in it might stumble upon it.

I like to think I am not racist, and I don't want to quiet people who are so vocal about it. If it is that important, please do talk about it...in the apropriate forum.
 
Last warning. Please read the topic line of this thread and keep on topic. Any other off topic posting here will be considered as a malicious attempt to befuddle the focus of this topic.
 
This is the lovely email that my wife came home to today from Nick showing his maturity....NOT. Why this was sent I do not know.

Also, another bit of information on Nick's current activities are that he is selling 13 day old translucent veiled chameleons on Kingsnake.com. Information proving this can be found on http://www.chameleonforums.com/kingsnake-ad-18832/

6 minutes after posting the first post on that link we got yet another call from Nick with another nasty message stating that I am a loser, etc.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS GUY!!!
 
I didnt know he was the "Dark Forest Reptiles" Nick. He is wholesaling now also. He has been busted numerous times for having, or should I say NOT having the proper permits for his animals. " Venomous" and various others. Now I am worried, I was going to buy some animals wholesale from him. I give people the benefit of doubt, until they screw me..

One, watch your language - aside from it being a forum rule, you were responding to a lady, and children also frequent this forum.

Two, a search using your name and your business name yielded no results in the entire state of Florida. So what exactly do you own? A name that you made up for a business that isn't even a real business?
 
Oops, Just scrolled down at the link above and also found a Chris (maybe short for Christopher?) Jorden.
 
Big bad Chucky

Don't you feel like a Donkey's A**, Man you are pathetic, You jump on everyone's case that is new to the BOI attempting to share their info. At least get your facts straight before you criticize people. Why are you always concerned with what everyone owns. That's right, I forgot... your a farmer. Hey I'll give you $50 to let me throw a rock at you. nah, make that a hundred.
BTW, were you doing push-ups last night? I could have sworn I felt the ground move!:eek:
 
Mr. Weinrich,
What in thunder are you talking about?
Are you refering to Mr. Kimmel questioning the validity of Mr. Ivins (doubt that is his real name) statements and identity or do you just have a personal grievance with Mr. Kimmel?
If it is the former, the level of personal honesty of posters on the BOI is quite important and if someone is making up who or what they are the honesty is in question from the get go. Though their lack of honesty may no matter in this thread to any great degree situations could arise in the future where it could be their word against that of someone known to be honest. In such a case people will know who to trust and who has a reputation for being less than honest.

If your problem with Mr. Kimmel is personal then would it not better serve you and the reading public to take it to the "Hell" Forum where the general public will not be witness to you making a spectical of yourself?

And no I am not in the Mr. Kimmel Fan Club nor am I defending him. I've been around the Fauna long enough to know Mr. Kimmel does not need my assistance and would probably take offence were I to offer it.

What info did he share? That he owns a name of a business that doesn't exist in the entire state of Florida? That even when doing a search under his name (that he lists in his profile) as Chris Ivins, it again yielded no business's at all associated with his name?

If his name is Chris Ivins, he doesn't own any business in the state of Florida as far as I can tell through various searches.

If he is Chris Jorden, like I'm now inclined to believe, then he has lied about his real name and his location in his profile which is a violation of the rules when posting in the BOI.

There are rules here palo. Rules which you should be familiar with..considering you broke them recently and were banned as a result. You might not like them, but you agreed to abide by them when you joined here.

Try to keep this thread on topic, Dum Sum.
