Featured Black kid calls white kid the "N" word after Kentucky loses to Wisconsin.

There you go again trying to intimate that black people are violent and angry.

They've squashed it as heat of the moment basketball trash talk. So why are we talking about it? Oh wait, you've got to try and make a point about your perceived double standard. Miss Black America Pageant and all.

And here we have it. The real reason you're mentioning this story is so you could try to make another point about Obama and the racial divide.

Yep but you just keep right on going.

Stop trying to inject some sort of moral relevance in a too late attempt to make folks think you're really concerned about this when your real reason for making ANOTHER one of these threads is to vent your anger about Obama and black people and their evil ways.

UNACCEPTABLE

 

LOL. It was all over the news. There was outrage.

Do you understand that you are making a bigger deal about this than Kaminski who was on the receiving end of this? They've already talked on the phone and it really wasn't a big deal to either of them afterwards.

Do you honestly think that word was used out of racist hate for Kaminski? You know full well that the term used in that context isn't coming from a position of power to hold down white people so let's not act like this is the same.

Now I do think it is inappropriate and tacky to use the term but the two squashed the issue like men and don't need or want you to make a national issue out of it.

Black people have taken ownership of a term that was used to denigrate them for years and while I don't particularly enjoy the celebration of the word and transition into casual slang, I understand that context matters at times when used among that particular culture.

 

If there were to be some BB metric of threads that viewed black people in a positive light vs. threads that viewed them in a negative light; I think it might make us all very uncomfortable...or maybe not knowing the people that post in here.

Your bias is showing again.

 

Guess that's whats kept so many from wanting to apologize for the role their ancestors played in slavery.

 

Why should anyone apologise for something that they are personally not responsible for?

 

Especially since it won't be enough.

Remember, Zaac, as much a part of a racist noise machine as anyone I have ever met, has said the only way to be forgiven for our original sin of slavery is to subject ourselves to lectures, one sided conversations, and perpetual groveling.


And my ancestors, on both sides, fought for Lincoln.

 

I am not surprised that so many on the BB do not know there is a difference in the meaning of the "N" word in the white community vs. the black community.

This is not surprising to me for those folk who live outside the South. I am a bit surprised that no one from the South has not mentioned this before.

It was said in a moment of great disappointment. If he had called me that word at that moment I would have laughed knowing his real meaning.

 

Go, Wisconsin!

 

Is that what everyone was watching Saturday night ?

 

I was. Watching Kentucky go down was highly entertaining. Hopefully the Badgers finish off the Dukies tonight.

 

Yep. One more step toward Cheesehead world domination...

 

Are those honey badgers?
