Why you lockin' my $hit?

[Mike]

What if I call someone a spooby, would that be considered racist?

[CJ]

Have you not heard? It was my understanding everyone had heard!?

:facepalm:

Im not outraged, i just thought it was retarded to substitute one racial slur for another.



i know black people that arent ofended by the n-word, but it is a racial slur nonetheless.

its not the words that irritate me, its the obvious double standard.

Here's the thing though. If not a single white person is offended by the word, then it's not offensive, right?

There may be a few black people who aren't offended by the n word, but we all know that the overwhelming majority are. That's what makes it a legitimate racial slur, I would think.

So, based on that, I don't see how the two are really comparable, and I'd think that he's not a hypocrite for thinking one is unacceptable and one is okay. Just my .02.

I didn't change the autocorrect Tyler (Mach1) did. Go bitch to him. And in case you didn't know he owns the board now and he can do whatever it is he feels he wants to. So go flap your gums to someone else, asshole.

I know who the owner is and i also know you didnt do shit to enforce the rule you have such a hardon for in that situation. Hypocrite.

I dont think you can say that nobody is offended just because you dont know anyone that is. It is used as a racial slur when someone calls another a cracker. It may not be as offensive or have the same history, but it is still a racial slur and should be treated just like the others if you are going to enforce a rule.

Do you know anyone who is offended by it?

Does anyone here know of anyone who knows of anyone who knows of anyone who might possibly be offended by it?

If another race calls someone a cracker or peckerwood with the intent of it being an insult then it is no different then the n word. I see everyones point about it not being offensive to white people but that's just because they don't give a shit. but like I said, if the intent is to insult, then it is no different. IMO I honestly don't know one African American who would be alright with the n word being said to them come from a white guy, Asian or anyone outside of the Latino/Black race.

[talisman]

I've been called a cracker before. It made me laugh.

If you think I'm doing a shitty job then post it up in the forum and let everyone give their input.

Just because someone thinks your doing a bad job doesnt make them right. There are plenty of people that don't like me and I could give a fuck about them. "I run my outfit like I run my outfit."

You will never see me in the political forum or theology forum and imo they have no business in our little corner of the interwebz because shit gets said and opinions of people are formed. But its not my call, so I choose not to participate. My grandad told me along time ago, not to discuss politics, religion or your how good you wife is in bed to friends, if you want to keep them as friends.

Does anyone here know of anyone who knows of anyone who knows of anyone who might possibly be offended by it?

yes, and if its said with the intent of offending someone, then its has the same meaning behind it as calling someone the n word. Im not going to argue this point, we can just agree to disagree i guess.
