And you thought Floyd Mayweather was racist...

As I have said before some of my favourite people are Jews. Finkelstein and Chomsky are prime examples. They are wonderful people and I have nothing but respect. But if you are Netanyahu then I will despise you. It is human traits that I distinguish, not ethnicity.

I have to add 1 last thing, the Jenny girl while saying such awful remarks is also morally superior to you. She conveyed her racist thoughts but at least she did not wish death on a group or a person from the group whom she clearly disliked. You on the other hand wished death on Yuri Foreman for being a Jew from Israel without knowing anything about what his political ideologies are, not that it makes it alright to wish death upon someone for their political beliefs. All you needed to know was that Foreman was Jewish and from Israel, therefore he disgusts you and that you wanted him to die. She is not the extreme bigot, it's you.

But hey Miles, you can blame it on the booze.

Miles has a remarkable ability to excuse his own behaviour here.

"Ok so one time I got a bit mental and said I wanted a Jew to die becuase he's a Jew but that was an entirely different thing. I was drunk you see, and angry. But I said repeatedly afterwards that I am not an anti semite and that surely cancels out one minor act of wishing death upon Jews"

I don't understand. I took back what I said whilst this woman hasn't and she has gone and booked herself into a mental hospital. I like good people and dislike people who inflict pain upon others. It really doesn't matter if they are white, black, purple, toothless or Jewish.

I said a terrible thing once whilst drunk and to be honest I say a lot of mean things when I am drunk, but that was perhaps the meanest thing I have ever said. It isn't the kind of thing I would typically say.

You can tell how drunk I am by lexical variety and post length. Drunk posts are typically snappy and short. Yuri Foreman was an obvious blind drunk one.

If people think I am at root a raving racist that is up to them, but I regard myself as a moderate racist in that I point out the obvious rather than wish to hurt anyone because they are different.

It's hard to tell if someone is just trying to provoke me, so I think that's all I have to say on the issue of race and myself.

It's not that we think you are a racist that's the point here, it's rather your quickness to label somebody else as such for saying the kind of things you yourself have said in the past.

I see that this has been posted on her official site blog


Jenny Hyun has been admitted to a hospital today. She is a paranoid schizophrenic and has been battling mental illness, a debilitating disease for many years.
Friends and family of Jenny want to extend their sincere apology for any harmful statements made verbally or via the web that Jenny has made while she was in the height of a psyshosis episode. We appreciate your understanding during this difficult time for her.

Quite sad if true.

I think it sounds too much like a cop out. She went on the warpath and then when it gets too hot is suddenly a paranoid schizophrenic. It's not getting drunk, it's not just being a daft racist, but instead it's full on 'she is schizo'.

Why not just say sorry and move on? I should have pleaded schizo instead of drunk, it's far more dramatic and people have to feel sorry for you. "Oh look at the poor dribbling mess, he didn't know what he was saying".

I was just trying to show degrees of racism and say hers is worse than Mayweather's. So was mine.

If I hated Jews so much then why would I like Chomsky so much? I would be burning his books rather than be a fan of his. I don't like hip hop, but that doesn't make me a racist. I love James Toney.

I just don't have it in me to be a proper out and out racist, but this woman clearly is as she has maintained the same point of view and doesn't take it back. Maybe she will be reformed in hospital and become a former racist, but I doubt it.

It seems to me that this general bulldog fella was awful quick to jump the gun. I don't even think he read the previous posts before commenting. Actually, I'm rather sure of it. Stupid.

Anyways, I believe with everything that Gandalf is going towards at the moment. When one starts referring to a race as a limb that is infected with gangrene and needs to be amputated, that takes matters far beyond the opinion of a casual joking racist.

I am not a racist. I hate everybody equally. People in general suck. All of them. We should judge on the individual, as that would be the wise thing to do.

And judging on this Jenny girl as an individual, she should think about consequences before she opens her mouth again. Hopefully she's learned something from this whole ordeal.
