Why don't you take your conservative self to Ferguson Missouri and do some investigative reporting if you wnt to find out. You won't believe us if we tell you anyway.

I'm sure uttering the N word there would work out really well for them. Sometimes, I think "Current Events" should be re-named "Klan Korner".

Don't you just love how he basically says "white people can't use the N word" while using the word "cracker" serveral times on his comedy sketch?
^ what he said.

Obviously you didn't get the joke.
Don't feel like answering my question, huh? It's okay, I'm pretty sure I know what your answer would be.
I'd be outgunned in Missouri, plus I have ZERO desire to ever go there.
Klan references are funny. Hating lazy black people is not equal to being racist, hating ALL black people makes someone racist

I guess whites can't stand the fact that African Americans have taken a back the power of that word.

You obviously need to go back to school and learn English over again.I guess whites can't stand the fact that African Americans have taken a back the power of that word.
I clearly stated I do not believe in joking about racial slurs, of any kind.
Is that not clear enough for you?
Not to mention a black person calling another black person the N word is degrading to the black community.
If anything, you would think the white supremacists, would enjoy the fact that the black community is degrading their own community.

They're black, not African American, political correctness is a bunch of crap. If you come to the US after being a citizen of Africa, then you are African-American, German citizenship? German-American. Italy? You got it, Italian-American. I'll guatantee you that REAL African-Americans are horribly offended at the frequency of use in this cou try of that word, I'm sure they really "embrace" the thug culture which has made it cute and fun to say to your homeboys.
They have not "taken back the power" of that word, because if they had, when a white person says it it wouldn't mean anything, much like if a black person called me a honkey.....I couldn't care less. You call a group pf black people that, you're getting jumped or shot.
The word still hurts their feelings and makes them reach for their wristbands
If it's ok for Dr. Dre, Snoop dogg, Jay-z, Little Jon, and the like to say it, then whites can say it too. I don't need Chris Rock telling me what words I can or cannot say due to my race. The first ammendment hasn't been suspended last I checked.

Once again, you just cant help yourself. "THEY"RE BLACK".
Still referring to their color. THEY ARE AMERICANS. THEY ARE PEOPLE.
To you, they are a COLOR. To that end, its very clear how you view minorities.
This speaks volumes. You keep trying to run away from your position of the NWORD, and now you want to climb back over the fence just to "lean" upon it.
Look bro, your a racist, its ok man, speak your mind, but dont try to "clean up" your intentions.
If you used the NWORD here in Los Angeles, you would be dead and the only "white sheet" you'd be wearing would be the one covering your corpse on the way to the morgue minus the pointy hat.

They have taken back the power homeboy! You see they can use the word among themselves as a term of endearment. You can't because you are white. Now that's power homie! Honkey means nothing to you because it wasn't used to demean and dehumanize whites for hundreds of years. Got it homeboy? And yes the first amendment gives you the right to say it. But it also gives anyone else the right to call you a racist.

Once again, you got to love the double standards of racism in America.
They aren't black they are people! But they call me white, does that mean black people view me as not a human? Not a person?
Are they being racist because they look at my skin color and don't refer to me as caucasian?
Look at stopsperhour's posts... he never once refers to white people as caucasians, he uses the term whites. He must be racist... but oh I forgot, black people can't be racist right?
NO, its YOU that doesnt understand the use of verbage. If the words WHITE were used to oppress white people for two hundreds years, then yes, it would be a double standard. But, WHITES labeled themselves WHITE, even though they are not WHITE.
More pale if anything.
Why not leave the subject alone and just call them americans?
TOS.
Black, Asian, mexican, korean.....which of these terms is racist and offensive, Sharpton?

I don't think you understand what the phrase "double standard" means. Here let me rip the definition out of a dictionary for you.
A double standard is the application of different sets of principles for similar situations. A double standard may take the form of an instance in which certain concepts (often, for example, a word, phrase, social norm, or rule) are perceived as acceptable to be applied by one group of people, but are considered unacceptable—taboo—when applied by another group.
Sound familiar?
This is exactly what is happening here, where you think it is fine for a African American (happy?) to call a Caucasian white but if a Caucasian calls an African American black, it's somehow offensive and racist?
