3. What's there to debate? |
|
It's clearly Ritz, with its buttery-rich goodness.

It appears to be a debate over which is worse, the N word or Cracker as far as racist slurs go.

5. Yeah it's about a bunch of silly |
|
white people pretending that cracker is as bad a slur on white people as n***** is on black people... And really, pretty much, that is the sum of it. :eyes:

10. Yep, didn't understand that thread at all... |
|
I'm a white guy, never even heard the word cracker used that way ever, from anyone, white, black or otherwise. I've heard of 'honky', 'redneck', and a few other slurs, but those come from white mouths to other whites they don't like. :shrug:

11. It's about those evil black racists in the south that hurl racial epithets |
|
at white kids.
Do you have any idea how many times that poor damaged kid will be called a cracker by the time they hit 20?
