Is anyone else sickened by this "Black Earl Support Card".  There is no way this shit should fly.  Im so sick of these ignorant fucks always spitting out their hatred.  I am posting this strictly for the visual.  I won't even type it.<img src="http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/Nesta0/earlcard-1.jpg" border="0" width="252" height="151" />

Shouldn't there be a comma between 'ya' and 'Baby'?

Can't see the pic (damn network filters!), but thought it was kinda funny that on the front page with the most recent posts, directly under this thread title was the title "Asians can't drive!"

If they could say it to someones face then its ok, but to have something like that on the internet is cheap. Take ownership of your hate.

That's the kind of stuff that posters on those boards will scream is "free speech" and they cry and stomp their feet when they're not allowed to do it here.  I like that RonFez.Net is, for the most part, safe for work and fun for the whole family!

I'm not personally offended, but it does make the show look bad in a way.  To be fair I wouldn't be offended if there was a WOP or DAEGO card or even a BOBIMPACTISADOUCHE card either, i just don't really ever feel upset about other people's thoughts.  That being said, I do appreciate that I can get to this site from work, I can't get to FBA or Wackbag unless I'm at home.

So Bossanova is SOOOO offended by the Earl Card that he posts racist anti-Asian remarks on another thread on the same site (Asian Driver thread).  I guess it's ok to be racist against one group of people, but not another.

Yes, I did post there.  If you read the post, you may actually see that I said nothing racist.  I said the one experience I had in San Fran was an Asian driver who almost killed me.  I said how everyone else was saying that.  But I guess for your love of Norton and his right winged views got in the way of my post.  If it offended you, I'm sorry.

I guess it's ok to be racist against one group of people, but not another.  The thread title isn't "Gooks can't drive" or some other derogatory term.  The use of the "N" word is what people take offense to.   Big difference.

If that was directed at me, allow me to retort.  I do not post there.  I went there to look at the Ron and Fez merchandise and I saw it there.  I brought it up, cause these are the newbies who come here and start shit.  I was not looking to start anything.

it's a bit much.  there's nothing hateful with DIC cards, it's just silly.  i think if ron gets wind of this, he'll squash it.

Those are cards are terrible. This is why I only post on ronfez.net. Mikeyboy and the other mods would NEVER allow that.

I can't belive it hasn't been said yet......"White People are Soo Scared of Black People..."I mean I do not care if another site uses this, but I'm not going to particpate in being a member of that club.  And it may only be a small portion of that board.

Their whole gimmick is to be over the top.  I don't think the card was meant to be a "racist attack".    If bossanova has an issue with them go over there and tell them.  Don't act like a soccer mom and complain about it here.

By "getting mixed in it" you mean we will be lumped in with those martians?If that's your worry I'd suggest that this might just be the boost rf.net has been looking for. Sure we are getting alot of run on the Free FM show but we have been called "a cesepool of negativity" in the past and having a disaster like this getting to Ronnie can only move the status of rf.net up a few notches.I don't think we need to worry about any repercussions stemming from this tasteless display.We might become THE message board recognized by the show and that could be a very good thing.

From <a href="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/viewmessages.cfm/Forum/89/Topic/46362/page/About_this_forum.htm">this thread</a>:This forum is for the discussion of radio programs other than Ron and Fez.  This is not a place to bring the dramas, wars, battles, discussions or anything else pertaining to fan sites of those radio programs.  RonFez.Net does not endorse nor repudiate any of these websites nor will we allow any of their petty pat battles on our forums.I always hate this broad-stroke smashing of other sites.  You You see it all the time.  People will take a post or a thread and use it to categorize an entire site.  You can't fairly do that any more than you can say that ronfez.net as a whole hates another site.  This kind of crap is just the sort of thing that leads to petty board wars.
