Today, I was out drinking with some colleagues, when one started ranting about some pretty sensitive subjects. There were some Latino guys nearby, and as soon as he said "I'm not racist, but..." I tried to casually get the hell out of there. We all got the crap beaten out of us anyway. FML

Today, I decided to be responsible and call a cab to take my drunk ass home from the bar. As I climbed into the cab, I was quickly pulled back out and had the shit beaten out of me by a group of drunk guys who thought they needed the ride more. The police soon arrived and arrested us all. FML

Today, my coworker and I were swamped with coffee orders. I told him I would "take care of the blacks", and a customer who only heard that sentence screamed at me for several minutes about racism. FML

Today, my friend was waiting outside the store while I bought a newspaper. Through the window, I saw two guys getting physical with him, so I went outside and they took off. I muttered, "Yeah, I thought so." They then turned around and beat the crap out of us. FML

Today, I was at a nightclub when some dick squeezed the ass of the girl beside me. She whirled around and started yelling and slapping me across the face. I was dragged out by the bouncers, to cheers from the people around us. FML

Today, I went to a bar with a close friend. She got drunk and was feeling sick, so I carried her to my car to take her to her house. Some stranger accused me of drugging her and tackled me with her in my arms. She threw up on me, and he took off running without an apology. FML

Today, I got fired, apparently for being racist to black people. When I told my boyfriend, he couldn't stop laughing. He's black. FML

Today, I got drunk until morning at a college friend's apartment with bunch of strangers. Some officials came in due to the noise and I tried to scare them away by pretending to sing a latin song of worship I made up, thinking they'd respect the gathering if it was a religious one. FML

Today, my friend and I stopped at a convenience store. She mentioned that it was was "a bad part of town", and I angrily reminded her that just because it's a poor area doesn't make it bad, and that she needed to be more tolerant. We then got jumped, beaten, and robbed. FML

Today, I'm a gay, black man who moved to a racist, mainly white, homophobic town for work. I've already had the cops called on me twice, and a group of teens yelled the f-slur at me unprompted. When I asked my boss if I could swap, he threatened to fire me. This is gonna be a long 6 months. FML

Today, I was at a party. Everyone was drunk, and I happened to overhear someone say, "Where's that guy in the black jacket? I'm going to beat his ass!" I wouldn't have thought anything of it, had I not been the only one wearing a black jacket. FML

Yea...when any sentence begins with that statement it's probably extremely racist. Sorry you got caught up in that.

I would probably refrain from drinking with that colleague again.

What was said that was so horrid? Or did they start beating your friends and you up before he could even finish?

Why do people think that starting a sentence with "I'm not [insert prejudice here], but..." is a free pass to speak without thinking and be a bigoted sack of shit?

"No offense, but..:" is my personal favorite. It's amazing how offended the people who utter this phrase are when you take offense to their insanely offensive statement, even though they told you not to be offended. What'd they think would happen? "Now, don't die from this, but I'mma shoot you in the head now." *BANG* "Why did you die? What's wrong with you, why do you never listen to me?"

What he said was probably pretty racist and he's a douche. But I'm surprised at how many people seem to think it's perfectly okay to resort to violence because someone said something that wasn't right. Violence should only ever be used in self defense, not as an automatic response to someone saying something you don't like. And this is coming from someone who is part Latino, mind you.

They had no reason to do that. I understand that it (whatever was said) was uncultured, however, I believe that violence is never going to solve anything, except to potentially prove Jeff's point. I had an uncle who was in a similar situation, and he stands firmly by his belief that they (whatever race or gender or whatever he was ragging on) were inferior because they couldn't solve their problems and misunderstandings with words.
