Oh so now we can talk about how a slur is bad and we all need to not do it?
What happened to bucking up and having thick skin and getting over it?
Maybe some people are starting to realize that being PC is not so bad. I'd call that a win for the liberals (or "libtard", as I am sometimes more affectionately labeled)
Actually it's more like we're getting tired of the blantant hypocrisy of PC. People who espouse and claim to be so sensitive to everyone's feelings then turn around and spout some of the ugliest crap ever.

I'm pointing out that this is an 'acceptable' slur whereas others are not.

I'm saying that some people think that. And I disagree with that. If people say the other slurs are not acceptable, then 'merica shouldn't be as well. If 'towel head' is derogatory and shouldn't be used, then 'mericans which is also derogatory shouldn't be either.

So if black folks go on an internet forum or on facebook and express their views on race relations, it's okay for people who disagree with them to call them the *N* word?? It's allowed ... but let's call it what it is ... slur is slur.
