Brawls, assaults, drunken fights, boots on the grounds and fans in hands just might have Carnival Cruise Line saying, "Enough is enough!" And some Black passengers are returning the favor, cancelling their existing reservations or cancelling the cruise line all together because they deem their new rules are racist. But some argue, "Are the new policies racist, or just restrictive?"
The discourse began after Carnival — who has the most allegations of serious crimes committed at sea than any other cruise line sailing from North America, per the FBI — implemented new rules. According to reports, as of June 1, Carnival passengers received a new letter to reinforce their guidelines and code of conduct.

Carnival Cruise Lines has grown tired of being the "2:00 AM Waffle House of the Seas."
No more chairs at the seafood buffet.
What the hell does that headline mean? I don’t speak jive.
Its a stretch for any of these to be called racist. Didndunuffins finding more reasons to be offended.
There was an article on the FR some time back about hotels in Africa that won’t accept American blacks as guests. Apparently the reputation gets around.
"All in Their Feelings" = Butthurt.
Basically black people are butt-hurt because Carnival Cruise posted new rules regarding behaviors most commonly associated with certain demographics.
Basic rule: “We expect our customers to act like civilized humans.”
Response: “Why you so racist?”
Anybody who causes problems get banned. It may take awhile to filter people out, but they will be filtered out.
Not a cruise fan, but isn’t it a shame that this has to be delineated?
Not Carnival ... but Celebrity.
Or is it TSA crap ?
Published Ship Policy allows passengers to bring and use walkie talkies.
Yet TSA are taking them away at the terminal, before we even get on the ship.
Some third world TSA agent mumbled something to the effect of ...
This one is a ‘4-way radio’ and took them both.
This is a problem with virtue. Without virtue there is no civil order. Without religion, there can be no virtue. This problem is a symptom of a godless society.
Never take a cruise on the Carnival Narcissus.
Looks like trashy Blacks take Carnival cruises. Last cruise line I’d ever choose.
My MD is Black, best doc ever, and my friend Abe who llives nearby is Black too. Career army,, served in VietNam. If he were on that cruise, he’d tell the nasty Blacks to STFU and Sit Down.

In the early 80’s the USS Tarawa docked in Mombasa Kenya.
American blacks thought they were going to find out about their roots. However, they were disliked and banned from most establishments.
The shock was palpable.
4 day cruise out of Long Beach. Racial incident between a black couple and a white one. The head of security had to sit down both couples and hash it out. It didn’t help that the security guy was Indian and spoke funny English.
Depends where the cruise departs. If it’s from Miami, it will be a pure ebony experience. I’m told it’s much better to leave New Orleans, for example.
The Walmart of cruise lines
