According to who? You?
Seeing as I said "If I were ranking them..." I thought that would be obvious. Guess that got by you though. Surprising.

So we should minimize it when a Mexican is called a derogatory term? Or an Asian? An Indian?
Tha fuck? Seriously?

It's this line of thinking that gives this word the power it has.
Yes... I posted on a Dallas Cowboys message board that I thought the n-word was the worst racial slur... I'm giving it so much power.

White people really don't like when everything doesn't go their way.

We have hundreds of words but they can't stand that one is deemed hurtful and off limits.

Did I miss a thread where black people were telling Asians, Whites and Latinos not to be offended by those terms?

I don't think you'd know a point if it fucked you in the ass.

:lol

Oh, look. Peppy's anger issues are surfacing again.

I have a problem when the exact same word is determined good or bad depending on the company.

Make up your fucking mind what is the unmentionable, be consistent and then get back with me.

I can almost guarantee you that in the past week, someone has pissed Jesse Jackson off and he called them the N-word.

Yes... because this is the only place you espouse your beliefs.

We should all be honored.

Face it, you are carrying a torch that isn't even lit.

Oh wait... stand by for Pep's ethnic slurs ranking selection show... will this be done Family Feud style?

Whites want Blacks not to be offended by it. Blacks want Whites not to say it. Seems like it would be easier just not to say it.
When non Jews make jew jokes there is usually complaining.

It is simple...just eliminate the word. I bet the hip hop industry wouldn't be for it.

His attempt to show everyone how much smarter he is than them didn't go as planed. His signature temper tantrum followed.

Ha. I would rather hear nails on a chalkboard than a bunch of loud, screeching ebonics.

They'd have to use words other than "bigger", "digger", "figure", "killer", and possibly "rigger", to end a good portion of their verses.

I am sure you were trying to be witty or something (FAIL), but I was serious.

As a white person, no...I can't pretend to act like I can get offended by someone calling me a cracker, honkey or white trash because it doesn't carry the same historical value.

But the bottomline is that there is a double standard. A word is what it is. Just don't say it if it is unmentionable. If not, STFU when some obscure third string dipshit decides to use it against the security guard that pissed him off at a hillbilly concert.

You don't think context matters? And intent?

If I were black:)pray) I'd consider it a very aggressive act to say that to me the way he did.


Conversely if my best friend calls me that or says he fucked my mom it hardly means anything. It's called not being a literalist fag

If the n-word is so destructive to black people's feeling, yall' need to get some tougher blacks. The ones that you know are a weak race thatvwears their feelings on their shoulders. These Southern , rural brothers that I know are not easily offended. It takes a cross burning or a lynching to get these brothers upset. They have seen real destructive racism and using the n-word ranks very low in comparison to the real racist actions of the past. My black friends are too tough to let any one word hurt their feelings.

People who were deemed 'white trash' in the early 20th century weren't hanged and enslaved, but they were discriminated against and many of their children were exploited working in factories.
