Fight fire with fire and change the venue to Menards or Walmart. Apparently there's no problem with large gatherings there.

Can't say Chicom (Chinese communists - a factually descriptive contraction) without being accused of being racist by the socialists. And when anyone on the right is accused of being a racist, they are a guilty. Period. No adjudication necessary.

Chicom_ Slang: Disparaging.. a contemptuous term used to refer to a Communist Chinese.

The definition of the word is racist.

Simmer down - you are not being "Canceled" your ignorance is being addressed.

Please explain how a factually accurate, descriptive word is racist when it defines a group within a group (Chinese + communists)... kinda like those elementary grouping exercises. ALL Chicoms are Chinese, but not all Chinese are Chicoms.

And if you are feeling offended for the Chicoms, it must mean you have no contempt for communism. Which is exactly the point those of us on the right have been saying for decades. Being a little socialist is like being a little pregnant.

The logical end to pregnancy is birth (well....not for you people) and the logical end of socialism is communism. Pardon me for having contempt for that and those that promote it.

ALovely...you are spreading lies and misinformation on a public forum. Consider yourself ignored AND cancelled!

P.S. You have no clue what the word racist really means. Educate yourself.

ALovely, you picked the only definition that I could find that said it was “disparaging “. Interesting.

Chinese people are not communists. Their government is. The very instant you group them together, you are by definition...racist.

So, if I say we’re all Americans, am I a racist?

From: x-man
01-Feb-21
No, that's the same as "Chinese".

"Americans" is not a derogatory nickname.

Chicom is no different than saying Ni__er.

From: Glunt@work

There are 50 plus ethnicities in China.

Saying "dumb Americans" or "goofy Canadians" isn't racist.

Chicoms refers to the communist leadership of the country China.

Maybe xenophobic but like racism, that has also been watered down to cover about anything.

From: Old School

My thoughts exactly Glunt. We water down what terms really mean by throwing them around to cover anything we don’t like...well that’s racists, bigoted, fill in the blank.

yes by all means lets be civil to a Ruling Party that released death and destruction to the World. Once they found out what it was going to do to their Country and economy they didnt want to be alone.Screw the chicoms call me a racist idgacrap.Chicom= Chinese Communist Party.

Remember when we said "ain't" & everyone said that is not a word & wrong. Well, Racist is becoming so common pretty soon it won't mean much either. I know someone who is for sure a dead beat, worthless human being & a parent (not great at that either) & lives off the state (knows all the in's & out's for getting freebies). I said, why don't you get a job or at least "try" to get a job. Their immediate words to me "your racist".. This person has taken advantage of "every" relative they have when it comes to "borrowing + so much more". Seems those speaking "the truth" about various matters are all racisist..

bigdog, I'm triggered by your comment. I happen to love my Bowtech after a several decades long love affair with Hoyts. Now that I've tasted the other side, I can say I am sorry for being so narrow minded and inconsiderate of other archers lifestyle choices. You should examine your place in the world to better understand how your words impact others....

WV - Bingo. The lefties (especially the 3 from Kansas) get their undies in a bunch over someone saying “Chi-coms” but have no issues with Trump being referred to as Hitler. Speaks volumes about them and where their loyalties lie.

Old School, people who act like the ones you are referring too, don’t deserve anything but the stupid crap they peddle.

If I got offended as easily as those guys, I’d live a pretty tough life. I reckon they live in a world that doesn’t contain reality. Because reality is..... acting dumb gets you even more dumb results. No one is as stupid as they imply with their actions. Or, they live in a world surrounded by women. That’s the only two options they have. Anything else would have ensured a hard lesson from people who don’t take kindly to the constant insinuations of ignorance.

Ignorant is the inability to be honest. But, don’t let that get in the way of drama. Or, the chance to get panty’s in a wad so they can whine about it.

Feelings. Uuuhhhhmmmmmm. My what has happened to masculinity? Being a man? I guess it’s better to moan about those that deserve the title men. Versus anny your drama Queen butt up and be one.

"Snowflake" is a 2010s derogatory slang term for a person, implying that they have an inflated sense of uniqueness, an unwarranted sense of entitlement, or are overly-emotional, easily offended, and unable to deal with opposing opinions.

"Chicom is no different than saying Ni__er."

But it's ok to fully spell "Chicom", and it's not ok to fully spell "Ni_er"?

...Genius...

And you wonder snowflakes get such a bad wrap?!

AIN’T about race or nationality, it’s about a foreign government out to destroy our country.

We’re now in a position for it to be freely handed over for personal profit.

I dunno, I'm as concerned about the Thought Police in our own country as I am about the Chinese Communists (does that make you feel better Alex?) China knows they need a strong U.S. economy to keep theirs humming. Our Left here seems hell-bent on turning us Soviet, erasing our constitutional freedoms, and crushing our own economy.

I don't remember my pap ever being shamed for using terms such as "Kraut", "Nazi" or "Jap" when I was a kid, not that he would've cared. This was of course after he'd fought in WWII and survived the Pearl Harbor attack. As much as I miss him, I'm glad he's not here to see what a bunch of pu**ies some of us have become.

Disgusting. Never knew there were so many commies loving lefties on this site.

good grief....

Interesting how actual racial/ethnic GENOCIDE being carried out by Chinese Communists (abbreviated: Chi-coms or maybe you prefer Communist Party of China.... potato, potaawto.... whatever flavor panties wad up best....) against the Uryghurs is quietly and totally ignored, as long as nobody is offended by words I guess. Screw using Chi-coms..... I'd call their leaders murderers and rapists and some of the most evil despots on the planet. Hope it's not toooo offensive for them.....

Their continent is not China, it's Asia. Big place.... lots of "Asians". Chinese is not even a race. It is a citizen of a country similar to saying American. You talk to an actual Chinese they will tell you there are dozens of "Chinese" races, they break them down into their own separate racial groups themselves. And in all honesty..... the " Chinese" are VERY racist people in a VERY racist country. Even among other Asians and "Chinese".

Pake buggas...... =D

But back to the OP...... I came in late. What the heck was the topic here????

keepemsharp - I responded to your original thread and talked about two 2021 WI bowhunting conventions being adversely affected by the pandemic. I did not in any way criticize or slander anyone or any group, yet my response was blown away by the moderators. Guess they are the "...PC police..." I sure lost a lot of respect for them and this forum.

Name-calling the citizens of a country because their leaders are scum is where I take exception. I feel there are guys on this very forum who would wish ill on the entire country of China. Those guys are just as guilty of being scum in my mind.

We can't choose where we were born, who are parents are, what color our skin is. And in some countries you can't even choose to leave if you aren't happy. For those of us who enjoy the freedoms we were born with here in the USA, we must accept that everyone else is jealous and views us as entitled. The older I get the more I see their viewpoint.

To Croixbaby's OP after the OP was pulled - if bowhunting orgs held our banquets and conventions outdoors and everyone wore a BLM t-shirt, then burned a couple local businesses and fought with police at the closing ceremony, all would be cool. We would be celebrated by DNCNN and praised by politicians from coast to coast.
