Town's White Police Official Calls Obama N-Word [W:301]

Yes, the VAST MAJORITY of WHITE AMERICANS are still RACIST. This is a fact supported by extensive research is multiple academic disciplines.

Are we going to keep repeating ourselves or are we done?

And yet this same 'vast majority of Americans' gave Obama high approval ratings after he was elected. Go figure.

I'm sorry you are a racist...I hope you get better. But still love you anyway.

Just look at this website. 90% of people, consciously or otherwise, equate racism with socially meaningless bigotry and even mitigating measures.
 
Which cases? Not to pick on you but your view is very common on the right (my experience). I almost never hear it on the left. Does that mean the right is less sophisticated and does not understand science?

It appears the left doesn't understand the unreliable nature of studies in the social sciences.

Please, by all means, pick away...

The Left must simply want to ignore or shock me shock me be hypocritical in this regard, which is why they will swear to every word of Ilan Pappe all the while calling John Lott Jr. a no good god damn filthy liar.

Social science is a conspiracy!
 
If someone doesn't believe what I say, I normally provide links and references without that person having to ask. Most people here do the same.
But why does it matter if you believe what I say? It's the truth. I have no investment in whether or not you believe the truth. In fact, I would say you have the bigger investment in that one. I also don't believe that you would respond to education on the subject. So, would you like some references or not? Since I have no internal motive to give them to you, the only thing that could compel me to provide any is a request. Do you have a request, Glen?
 
I would be surprised of anyone who's in there 80's who doesn't use the "N" word be it Negro or nigger.

When someone in there 60's or 80's refers to someone as a "dude" it's an insult, it's the same as calling someone a ***** or pantywaist.

Remember it wasn't blacks who decided one day that the "N word" was a derogatory term but some white beard scratching liberal who decided for them.

Pick up any newspaper published during the 1800's to the late 1960's and the word "Jap" was used in place of Japanese all of the time. It didn't become a derogatory term until some white liberal decided it was during the early 1970's.

I knew more than a few dozen ROK Marines (Republic of Korea) who referred to Vietnamese as "gooks." Are they racist because they adopted U.S. military slang ?

I suppose older Americans take individual freedoms more seriously than others and don't like white beard scratching liberals telling them what words they can use and not use.
 
It shows that the Libbos aren't really concerned about racism. It's all about politics to them. If the black community didn't vote overwhelmingly for Democrats, the Libbos would call them all niggers, on a daily basis.

Dude, not true, and not cool. You don't even understand your own motives, what led you to say that.

Let me ask you a few questions:

1) Do you know it when you're not liked, when you're wanted somewhere, even when the people there claim that they do like you and want you there? Of course you do. And once you figure out that you're not liked or wanted, do you stick around?

2) Assuming that you're like almost everyone else and would not stick around, what makes you think that 98% of African Americans and the vast majority of the other minorities, if the liberals are as racist as you claim, would not be able to see right through it, and would choose to stick around anyway? And before you answer, don't even give the "they want handouts" line because this also applies to Asian Americans who are the highest-educated, highest-income ethnic group in America.

Okay. PLEASE provide the references and the links thereto.
 
It's certainly ok on the Left to say, "redneck, white trash, Uncle Tom, race-traitor, honkey, cracker and whitey".

As a black man, do you honestly not see any difference between those words and nigger??

For real apdst - putting lefties, politics, and any other bull**** aside do you think what this guy said was racist or not? If not, why not?
 
Than you haven't been following along in your book...;)

It's not my credibility at stake here. Your strawman was stupid and now all you've got is ad hom. This is pathetic.

What in the Sam Hill are you talking about?

My cred is just fine.

You wanna cosign on BS?

Be my guest

You come at me with a smart ass comment and then say I'm presenting a strawman and an ad hom when I return the favor?

You're right it is pathetic...
 
No, modern racism isn't about hate. That's the point. If you're going to mock something, then at least understand it before you do.

More BS I see. Kind of sad you believe it.
 
What guy??I'm not 'defending' anyone!

Oh sorry, you've just got a bunch of posts arguing with people who think he was wrong. Do you even know what the thread is about?

No, I do not, which is why I call out the Libbos when they use them.

It depends on his intent. Does he hate black folks? I mean, black folks call each other nigger all the time and it isn't considered racist, and spare me the, "but, that's different", bull****.

I believe racism exists in action, not words. Some people grew up hearing, "nigger", and just don't know any better. Some people really believe that there's a difference between black folks and niggers and those same people believe that you don't have to be black to be a nigger. This dude is 80! When he was a teenager, nigger was probably an accepted, or at least tolerated word.

Now, because he called Obama a nigger does that make him a racist? Does it mean, absolutely, that he hates black folks? We have no way of knowing. He could possibly treat black people better than the biggest do-gooder Libbo in the world. He might be extremely well liked and respected among the black folks that live near him. I find it extremely small minded to label this man a full-blown racist because he said nigger, especially in light of the same people who are condemning him are the same ones who defend the use--and use the terms themselves--of afore mentioned racial slurs.
