All of you have a very valid reasoning....and takes a while for me to read all of ur posts.

Anyhow, I don't wanna go into this subject again.

 

all right

why don't the bigots just admit who they are and we can go back to being a happy family again!!

 

In all honesty. I have yet to see an asain who has "riced" out or made his car distastefull. It is all done by white people as far as ive seen.

 

This THREAD and POLL must be DESTROY!!! It has gotten out of hand and is way OFF-TOPIC!

"Can't we all just get along?"

 

This thread started 'out of hand'. The title refers to 'rice', but it's a race poll.

I believe in freedom of speech, but with that, I recommend a side order of common sense.

Oh, and BTW, the best way to kill a thread is not to respond to it. Damn

 

there is as much of a race of europeans as there are asians, africans, and americans... look at the continent where they're from... and look, the name, amazing how that works...

now my $.02 .... 'rice' is a term used to describe a style of modifications to a car... its only offensive if you try and make it offensive... I've heard other terms which are far worse... i.e. f.o.t.b.(fresh off the boat) and s.a.t.b(atraight across the border).... so, just calm down, no one really cares what is rice and what isn't, and specifically, its not ment as an offensive term

 

I think there's a glimmer of intelligence in this thread but most of it is bull. Everyone is trying to justify their views, most often at the expense of someone elses. Maybe the next poll should be, how many people changed their minds or their actions after reading all this. Let me quess.. .. ..

Frankly I was curious about the term "ricer" since I don't use and I don't hear it used, but I have seen it show up on the board. The term rice-burner has been around since the early '70's when gas prices hit the ceiling and high-mileage imports became fashionable with some and lothed by others. I assumed ricer to be a negative term. So, is it the car, the race, or both? I'm sure it depends on one's point of view. Maybe the best answer is to find another clever word to describe these cars. How about chezzzzy looking?

 

At the risk of offending my Italian friends, I saw a car today that was totally spaghettied out.

 

I had a totally tricked out burger-burner Fiero once! Well... actually it was ketchup-only (stiff red polyurethane bushings on all the mounts)!

 

Geezzzz, you mean rice isn't good for you?! I always thought is was a great source of protein and carbohydrates.

Cheers
