No One Cares Because Nothing Matters Anymore

No, it's really not. None of this is funny at all. You guys rushing to his defense is sickening.

Yes, it really is. Clearly you are incapable of comprehending Leawood's INTENT. Let alone the context.

"All that sounds like to me is justification for you, a white person, to use the word. There is no such justification. The N-word carries an overbearing history of suffering and racist baggage. It is not an acceptable word to use. Sometimes things really are just that black and white.

Again, the word is not for you — not in story form, not in scenario form, not in music nor pop culture form."

-Suzette Hackney (she's a black woman btw)...

Figured you must have missed this. It pretty much explains this for the white people that can't wrap their head around why it's NEVER okay for a white person to use the word....our ancestors lost that privilege for us by being racist assholes. Show some fucking respect for yourself and for black people by eliminating it from your vocabulary under any circumstances. It's the least we can do as white people, and it takes nearly no effort.

Scumbags.

Whiteness protects whiteness is how the saying goes....I think we've got some prime examples of that tonight.

Hold those party lines people. Lots of unity being shown by the democrats around here tonight for the scumbags using the n-word.

I also love Ted Lieu.

You have called yourself an advocate and ally....you've failed at that tonight. Your silence about the n-word being used by white people speaks volumes.

Suzette Hackney would be disappointed in you.

"Is that really the rock you want to die on? What does it say about a person who wants to use the word freely or defend another individual who uses it? Why would you ever want or need to say the N-word?

So follow my lead — don’t say the word, don’t sing the word, don’t rap the word — just don’t use the word. And don't defend anyone else who does. Because if you are white, using the N-word is never okay. It’s really that simple."

A man who called me the C-word should not say anything else to me or about me.

So the n word (in context or not) is ok, but C U next tuesday crosses the line?

Not sure where this goes

I can think of a perfect use for it.

[Deleted User 289]

I think calling someone the n word or the c word is completely unacceptable.
Using either/both in context? Obviously debatable.

Take the N-word up with Leawood, I'm defending myself.

You said not a word to Illinois when he called me a Cunt, so don't say anything more about it to me.

Its just interesting watching the self righteous, moral gymnastics necessary to twist to fit the mold.

[seahawk]

You said not a word.

[TDub]

So you can feel however you want about me. It doesnt change my point.

It should be no surprise. It happens here every day.

Does was correct. "It" is singular and was the subject "does" was referring to.

FWIW I never grammar-police anyone unless the person is incorrectly doing so first. Maybe you should do the same.
