Do you think anyone on Answerbag would ever admit to being a racist or a homophobe? Maybe they have and I missed that question.

Nope I don't think so.They would be crucified.So much for free speach.I am not racist or a homophobe, but I agree with free speech...not todays free speech as long as we agree with you mentality.I think people should be able to state their beliefs and discuss them without people going apeshit.

I think we have had a few here and there in my time on the Bag Frank, but they have been new accounts or Trolls trying to stir up trouble.

Racist - I'm not Homophobe - I'm not

I don't think people willing admit these things because it is not socially acceptable. It would be like admitting that you pick your nose at eat it or something. I would like to think that there really aren't any racists or homophobes on AB but that would be delusional of me, these people will just stay quiet. Occassionally you get a dumb one who asks a stupid question which reveals a lot about how they think on these topics...

Highly possible that they have been canned for "offensive". I myself pointed out to a user that his title "kkkjewhater" would not make him many friends here on AB so he changed his name to anonymous, but that only means he is still out there somewhere.

Most probably would not, and 99.9% of the ones that do are so extreme they are actually offensive. I'll admit, I'm human and there are prejudices in my mind. Some of them are founded on past experiences, some probably have no solid ground to stand on. But they're there. I'm not proud of them, and I don't project them on other people. I strongly believe in keeping my thoughts to myself on certain things -- especially things that are no concern of mine and have no effect on my life. And I still don't see why it's any more acceptable to have this constant USA vs. UK battle that seems to be going on with certain people on AB and off than it is to have a black vs. white or straight vs. gay.

no ..haven't got the balls to ...same as the d/r's who won't leave a comment ...there gutless and haven't got the back bone to stand up for their bigoted homophobic racist views ...why? because they know that are just that and know they are wrong and yeah there are some on AB who fit that description very well and most of us know who they are even if they are 'anonymous' and as all good ABers we should and do attempt to stamp it out because it and them have no place here on AB
-
the biggest bigots never admit it, but constantly prove it with the ignorant, hate-filled Q&A they post on here every day. That, and the cowards who just go through the forum and DR everyone without leaving comments. edit: speak of the devil...I just saw this posted by the infamous bigot, kkkjewhater http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/474203 edit 2: he's posted more than one now. won't be long before he's rejected. he's never subtle with his blatant hatred.
-
judging by the question i've just read i'm sure some people would.
-
I think I have seen some admit to being homophobe, but never seen one admit to being racist. Those that are usually stir up trouble or ask opinion Q's just to get answers they can DR or argue offensively and irrationally.
-
I suppose this would immediatly be flagged as offensive and rejected.
-
I used to be a racist.... I am NOT now. I have said this before.... lol
