  1. But that's not what you said... Disagree. It's the intent in which the word is said. For instance, my mom used to say to me, "Son, if you don't behave, I'm gonna whip your a$$ 'til your nose bleeds." Now, I would not call her a child abuser. The saying was really pretty funny, and we would usually both laugh when she said it. She would have died for me (and almost did), and I knew it. No harm, no foul. Words are not finite in meaning or intent. It's the power "we" give those words that make them what they are in the first place. Personally, if someone called me a cracker or a honky (my favorite) , I would laugh my butt off. I don't give those words any power, so they mean nothing to me, and they sound hilarious.
  2. I totally disagree. If a black dude says it to another black dude like “What’s up man.” (Replace the word man with the slur), are you saying that one or both of them are racists? That’s silliness beyond belief.
  3. You don't necessarily have to shave, you can buy them and give out as gifts. As a matter of fact, I'll take two! 😎
  4. I think you are being unfair, bigoted and are racially profiling a group of people.
  5. I don’t think I spoke for you. There simply weren’t rap videos on MTV spewing profanity, nor was there internet to host such videos.
  6. No doubt they have heard that type of language in rap music, but I doubt that’s where they learned it. That’s not where you or I learned it along with millions of others.
  7. This is true. Lol. Rarely are you going to get them to pad up and hit somebody though.
  8. Spot on. As long as you point to an organization or movement funded by politicians, you will be disappointed.
  9. Nope. He was a sophomore the ‘85 season. That’s why I said he was decent. Had some growing to do.
  10. Well, I played against him in ‘85. He was decent that year.
  11. I remember lining up against Patrick in high school. He was decent, but got better in college. Pretty strong kid.
  12. Exactly. Lol. I live in Lumberton… that’s why I was interested in it.
  13. We had a similar arrangement, and I’m nowhere near as old as you are. (Lol). It was definitely a simpler time.
  14. Are you trying to start a war? 🤗😂
  15. Apparently it is not completely settled.
