well when visiting NYC this week on the subway scratched into the seat in front of me was the following..."I hate nigers,daygos,joos,and fagets." I could not help my self. (Not prone to commit acts of vandalism myself) I pulled out my pen knife and scratched "Lern to spel b4 becumming a stoopid Raysist." I thought it quite funny that the spelling was so bad. However the fact that this type of racial crap still exists kind of makes me sad. I was glad to get back home to good ol michigan. What this has to do with knives is very little. However my BM leapord Cub did do a nice job of scratching plastic.

I'm glad you used your knife to leave message that showed the writer's ignorance instead of finding yourself in a situation where you had to confront a bigot with a blade. You have provided a nice example of the creative use of a knife. By the way, try not let that kind of junk bother you, the most destructive racism comes from people
either deny their feelings or don't truly understand the implications of their attitudes. Extremists are never stronger than the center allows them to be.

Knife related - Just as the most virulent racists are not a threat, people who are virulently anti-knife are not a threat. The biggest threat to knifenuts are the everyday folks who see no need for a pocket knife of any kind. These are the people who think it is natural to use their teeth to open things despite the fact that knife is humanity's oldest tool. Similarly, the kind of folks always joke about Westside Story whenever they see a knife lay the seeds for a general predjudice against knives also.
 
By 'the center' you don't mean us do you? The Midwest!?! :D

Well said Anthony.

Ren, I think former Atlanta Brave pitcher John Rocker may have been responsible for the badly spelled grafitti :)
John, from urine reeking NYC:(
 
As a Braves fan, I'd appreciate if you refer to Rocker as a Cleveland Indian now.;)
 
I'm going to hazard a guess that the graffiti was done tongue in cheek, actually mocking racists. Think about it...nobody could possibly spell that bad. This was probably a bit of clever humor.
 
RH,

Do you know the difference between genius and stupidity?

Genius has limits.

Never underestimate your fellow man's capacity for idiocy, it will turn around and bite you every time.
 
"Never underestimate your fellow man's capacity for idiocy, it will turn around and bite you every time."

true. I'm writting that down. I knew a girl who was half white and half american-indian in high school. She often heard people Yell: "Go back to China!"
 
Chris, I can't understand it. People will use keys, teeth, pens, all kinds of less efficient things to open packages, cut tape, and do a million other things that a knife will do much better. I just wish people could understand the utility of a good pocketknife. I also wish that more of us would carry more utilitarian looking knives that freak people out when we deploy them.
 
What is good in this country (mine) is that those packs with tearing slit will most of the time not working, so I have the chance to use my knife :D
 
Anyone who thinks really bad spelling has to be tongue-in-cheek should pay more attention to what goes around on the internet, even on Bladeforums. I know some netlingo is for fun, but a lot of people seem to feel, if you can understand it, it's good enough.

As for utilitarian little knives, A.G.Russell just sent me a beautiful little utilitarian catalog yesterday morning. It has the Kabar-Dozier "Thorn" on the cover -- show that to the sheeple ... but there are three neat little knives: a Schrade Barnett, the Al Mar SLB, and the SOG Sculptura. Looking at the prices, I'm going to jump on the SOG :-)
 
I had weird dreams and woke up to this humoruous stuff and started to laugh.


thanks

chris
