Mock stop talking bs Dwight Jackson as a name suggests nothing to anyone

This case is baseless and wil be thrown out

You don't think that an American named Dwight Jackson gives out a clue as to his race?

It'd be like saying that someone called Ji Sung Park isn't Asian.

That is a terrible example.

What about Dwight Jackson says black man

Explain

Let's just be as un-PC about this as possible here.

How many white people named Dwight Jackson do you know irl? Because my answer to that question is zero.

I'm sure that they're out there, but I doubt it's that many.

I don't know anyone called Dwight Jackson, of any race.

Why is this guy still here?

Don’t even bother trying to explain anything to LT at this point. He revels in his racism and wilful ignorance. Best thing to do is just feel sorry for him.

LT having his arse handed to him is always nice to see.

You can tell he thinks he’s right because he still posting (trolling)

When you actually box him in with facts and pull his “opinions” apart he’s unsurprisingly quiet.

Can’t be arsed reading the book, LT? Here’s an audiobook preview: https://youtu.be/41yU68Ej6mk?si=8hd3P6RC1cCZHXFu

Let me just see anyone else try to defend LT on this. Let me see those fools come out of the woodworks. KMT in advance.

Even, let me see anyone try and defend bricks being thrown through people’s windows for no other marvellously reasonable reason than the colour of a young family’s skin. I know there are people on this half-clapped forum who honestly would defend that.

I'm trying to understand where he is coming from on this topic tbh.

I always like to hear alternative views to my own (even if I strongly disagree with them) but I feel like what LT and anybody else that's agreeing with him is failing to understand, is that those of us that would work presume that Dwight Jackson would be a black man ended up being correct, as he is a black man.

So I highly doubt that the Hotel in question wouldn't be thinking on a similar line.

I'm glad that you and a few other members can see my point of view though, Redway, because I thought that I was going crazy.:laugh:

Tbf to LT, this is probably the first topic on here where we're completely on opposite ends to each other on a topic, where we just don't understand each other's viewpoint (which tbf is natural to happen) that's life I guess.:laugh:

Fair enough.

Isnt the rock called dwight johnson?

No

Its Dwayne...much the same.

I will not apologise for being hilarious.

Hilarious to who?

I thought of him too immediately in the context of the thread title, that I even googled right away because I loaded last page and saw the name... wait, isn't that him? :laugh:

Dwight Jackson can be a black name but if you asked me without context, I would not have thought black right away. But Dwight is an older man's name, white or black. Jackson isn't race-specific, but it is common enough in black population that I can see where somebody, especially in specific communities or regions where the name is popular in those neighborhoods there that they might immediately make that assumption. It's not immediate for me.

…I think the thing about the story is that it’s being said that he got an interview with the name change so the indication from that is that his name had some type of prejudice attached by the interviewers…and where someone lives would have a relevance too with an ‘image’ or ‘stereotype’ someone would associate with a specific name…I don’t know what will be made public but it’ll be interesting to hear the court thoughts…

There's a character in the Walking Dead called Dwight and he's a red neck type white guy, that could be why that type of person instantly popped into my head when I heard the name

Yes definitely

the thing is, it may not have got to the point of someone human reading the application. These days, everything is pre-screened by computer, narrowing down the field to a manageable level before a human takes over
