Challenge away, but as it was pointed out, don't change words and paragraphs around for your own sake. If you've got an opinion, give us yours, not someone elses. You said you were too busy, yet here you are. Between the lies, changing other peoples quotes, etc...you're all over the damn highway w/ your "opinions".

Does that give me carte blance authority to use those terms or call someone else by those names? No. Personally I was offended when I heard the term "white trash" used to refer to someone, and I am not even white. Why would anyone think that just because some black folks call each other the "n-word" gives anyone else the right to use it all willy-nilly like?

my 2 cents.

P.S.

The new code word for the "n-word" is progressive. I kid you not. I heard it used yesterday. The situation was that someone I know was involved in a car accident with a black guy in a pickup truck who looked to be down on his luck. When explaining to someone else how the accident occurred, he commented: I was hit by a "progressive" who was turning into a McDonald's parking lot. At first I thought he meant that he was hit by a guy who was insured by Progressive Insurance Company until he repeated himself. I doubt that those two had a discussion about one's political affiliation or ideology. The only discernable characteristic was that this guy was black and appeared to be not well off.

I'm not trying to make an arguement why I've used that word.

LMAO...I've never heard "progressive" used before. Technically, anything that is used as slang to reference someone of another race is derogatory amongst each other of the same race, but for some reason the "N word" is the one that raises the most flags when used by anyone else. I'm also realistic and know that even when African-Americans are talking amongst each other, they probably have derogatory terms when talking about us? Ever watch a comedy show w/ a black guy impersonating a white guy? Do I get offended...not in the slightest. Personally, I don't get offended if anyone calls me anything in their little book of insults, because unless it's true, they don't know me and their just talking in defense to make sure they don't get their feelings hurt....remember "sticks and stones" from when we we're children?
