Wed Aug 7, 2013, 03:40 PM

Its not a neutral word, though some may not be offended by it depending on where they are coming from its a word that is used in a derogatory way. There are many words for all ethnic groups that seem neutral but can be very bigoted. It seems that for some reason people dont understand that. I got no idea what to say really that people think stuff like the original op is good for society as a whole. Well i am done with it,

And you wouldn't know it by looking at me but my mom is white. We don't use that word in my circle unless it's in reference to rice crackers with cheese or home made hummus.

Also a wetback and a nig..., and a savage redskin.
I like to vote in polls.
If I'm mixed with Hispanic, black , Cherokee, and Irish can I just be all the slurs at once?
Can we come up with a good one for me? Some parts of me heritage get jealous of the attention other parts of my heritage gets. My Hispanic quarter is mad at that Cherokee portion, and my cracker quarter isn't speaking to my nig portion, so I'm getting all kinds of gas.

.. pretty much just laughs if off.

On the other hand, when the Bull Mastif spouts off to the little dog, the little dog needs to fear until proven otherwise.

Hmmmm....
