Re: Thomas Magnum--wimps out?

Signs of the local Red Neck Colony has come out in force. I've never faced racial hatred as much as this. I've been all over the world, meeting and living with all kinds and races of people, but given the very short time with you and the very limited spurts of messages, I cannot recall the sheer am...

Re: 40th Anniversary Watch Party

Some random jottings about this episode: Immediately sensed the customer would get whacked in the barber shop esp. as the barber says, “You didn’t miss a thing.” I’m unsure what triggered my premonition. Maybe the barber shop has become a standard for a whacking scene??? Great acting by Selleck thou...

Re: Thomas Magnum--wimps out?

But if you ask the question to an American simply because he looks Asian and therefore to you a foreigner--then of course its offensive. Oh is that a fact? I must have missed the memo on this one. Like it or not, people of a certain look, sound, or behavior might be asked where they are from. If th...

Re: Thomas Magnum--wimps out?

If strangers were to say to you, "Say, you speak English good, how long you've been here?" Or, "Where ya from? ... No, I mean what country?" How would you feel? I'm sure not good. Racial slurs demean and push/keep people out. :lol: Is this even a serious question? Being asked what country you're fr...

This website, The Alamo or Last of the Mohicans? Being new, I've only seen a handful of people active here and its almost always the same ones.

Re: Thomas Magnum--wimps out?

:lol: People see/hear/read what they wanna see/hear/read. Canadians stormed the beaches of Normandy... Or was it the Nation of Canada. It's all semantics. Not everyone has some deep hidden racial or bigoted agenda behind everything and it's crazy to look for it. I guess since storming the beaches o...

Re: Thomas Magnum--wimps out?

A bit vindictive aren’t we. Backlash to my calling out your racial slurs. Even if those of you who didn’t use racial slurs like Ivan, your silence aided and abetted his racism.

Re: 40th Anniversary Watch Party

@Mr. Keoki, @eagle, I agree, a great line, esp. for plump Higgins. Foiled Again is an amazing story, amazing. I admire how well it was conceived. Many many things can be unpacked about it. Here’s just a few: 1) the relationship between TM and Higgins has greatly evolved yet remains tenuous. 2) Both ...

Re: Thomas Magnum--wimps out?

Very easy to make claims; much harder to substantiate them. But in doing so it shouldn't lead to vitriol. Life is filled with too much beauty to be sidetracked with anything less. Consider TM whose life of moderation and good sense brought out the best in people. Surely he was one who could separate...
