I havent seen anything thus far that truely out of line if read from the sidelines.

Race is a funny thing. I am reminded of the words of a paintballer dressed as a twenkie at Castle 23. He was an asian looking fellow and was asked by a man with a camera why he was dressed as twenkie, to which he responded, and I quote " Well my father was white and my mom's asian so I figured Id dress like somthing that represents me, yellow on the outside, white in the middle" The man man with the camera respond with a laugh "Okay we cant use that!"

Yes this story was brought to mind becase of the asian context of this disscusion, but you have to ask yourslef, what color is WT, what color is drg. (do you know?, I dont) Then you have to ask yourself why should it matter. (heck just assume everyone here is the same race/color as you (not talking to heebs in specific) and you'll see whats been said hasnt crossed the line) I have yet to meet an outright racist person on MCB. with that in mind this disscution should go on. We all just need to keep it civil.
