Just in case you didn't hear it, here is the full "Dr" Laura racist audio

liblady said:
wait....where did you get "victimhood" from? that woman called in to express her dismay at the n word being used in her home. she wanted advice, which dr laura did not provide. instead, she ranted. it was like she lost her mind for a minute. "nigger, nigger, nigger, don't naacp me....." THAT was offensive. the only point she made was that she is clearly the fool people think she is.

did she have a right to say it? sure.

Wrong. See, your reading into **** that wasn't there.
She didn't call in to complain about someone using the word Nigger in her home. She called in because her husband, essentially, wasn't as hypersensitive about **** that isn't really racist, and didn't throw the race card up. You see, he can't because he wasn't issued one.
Anyways, when asked to give an example, she first gave the example that probable resembled the truth, her husband's friend or family members (not her husband) would ask, "What do black people think of (this)" or "How do black people handle (this)".
When she got a completely unexpected response from Dr. Laura, she figured she would put her foot down and regain the sensitivity she so rightly deserved, so she brought out the big guns.. The coveted.........
"N-Word" (insert choir music here)

Then that didn't work so she was highly offended, and proceeded to race bait Dr. Laura and "NAACP" her. (i loled).

ok...we disagree. but i think his friends, and probably he himself, are assholes. my advice to her would have been to ask wtf was wrong with her husband?

And you are willing to make this assumption based on her 3 minute testimonial with no input from him? I mean totally ignoring the fact that the dude married her...
 
jallman said:
I disagree. Her whole little sob story about how his friends would ask her what black people thought of this or that...that was just victimhood on her part. Sallow, humorless race whining.

Word. When I first married into my husband's WASPy family, I was asked all the time how Italians did this, what Italians thought of that. Before my mother in law & I realized we both shared a love of antiques, gardening and child rearing, she didn't know what to talk about with me. So she would talk about pasta. :lol: I gave her credit for trying to look into "my world." It certainly didn't mean she had issues with Italians. And when I ask her about life back in the day, it doesn't mean I have some weird issue with older people.

Exactly...what I am picking up on is that this woman described a scene where his friends (who may not be very racially aware) were attempting to learn something about her and her race in general and she took offense more at being the only peppercorn in a salt shaker than anything they were doing. Then when she didnt get what she wanted, she tried to trump in a game of race cards. It backfired.

DING DING DING DING DING.

We have a winner.

Blacks like this caller need to drop the "woe is me for I am black" victimhood status, throw their race card in the trash, and accept that they are black, which is no different from being Italian, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, "Southern", etc when it comes to these types of issues.

People are going to ask about your cultural difference, DEAL WITH IT.

I would be interested to hear from the other side of this. I mean, white people don't just go marrying black people and introducing them to their friends and family if they think of them as niggers.

"What about the (argument ending) "N-Word" " "The (argument ending)"N-Word" has been thrown around."

Yeah? So? Its been thrown around. She didn't state by who, or whether she was still even talking about her problem with the husband's friends or family anymore.

No she didn't.
 
Here is what is very scary about this thread. For whatever reason, since Obama has become president, closet racist feel that it is their right to use words and make broad assumptions about people because they can always go back to the "there is a black guy in the white house I'm not racist you are lol" argument.

Here are just a few things that made the Laura lady sound stupid and racist:
-Telling the woman that if she didn't want to be made fun of she should have never fell in love with her husband and been with him, instead should have kept it in her own race.
-Say the "black people just voted for Obama because he was black" but THEN backtracked when the lady made the suggestion that people are mad that a black guy is president (which they are) and said that more white people voted for him, so the lady can't even get her **** down straight, she just says racist **** to try and make her half-assed points.
-said the n-word over and over again as to challenge the lady after she had already said it
-had the balls to have her wait during the commercial break, clearly couldn't think anything over and then when the commercial was over and came back was even more ****ed up racist towards her.
-calling her hypersensitive isn't racist, but it completely disregards her situation.

You guys have a good point that maybe the lady was being to sensitive with being asked what blacks feel about this or that, but why did it have to go from there, to "Hey I need to figure out a way from retiring from this radio business so let's see how many times I can offend someone that I know I am going to offend."

This "PC racism" is just as bad as the brand we have always had. Also Caine are you really a cop? How many donuts do you eat a day? About 2 dozen?

Maybe his friends aren't doing anything wrong and she is just being a hyper sensitive race baiter???

This is a fact. SOme elements will indeed make fun of such things. Pointing out reality to the woman, is not, "racist"...

Any evidence people are mad because a black guy was elected or are you just race baiting again?

So she said, "nigger", in context it was not racist. Your race baiting however is.

Was this a "hard break"? No choice in the matter. What specifically did she say after said break, was "more racist"?

Lie. Didn't say anything about "being made fun of" Your intentionally changing words to make your argument sound better.

-Say the "black people just voted for Obama because he was black" but THEN backtracked when the lady made the suggestion that people are mad that a black guy is president (which they are) and said that more white people voted for him, so the lady can't even get her **** down straight, she just says racist **** to try and make her half-assed points.

As to the bolded part: Irrelevant, Assumptuous on your part. She assumed black people just voted for Obama because he was black, You (and the race baiting broad) assumed that people are mad that a black guy is President. Do you see the irony in this? One is not better than the other, and we have youtube videos to prove both on an individual basis.
As to the rest: Yes, white people did have to vote for him in order for him to get elected, based upon the same exact set of facts that she already used. There is nothing racist about this either. You've yet to point out anything that is racist.
-said the n-word over and over again as to challenge the lady after she had already said it
Click to expand...
Proving a point that context is everything, regardless of how the race baiter wanted to change the subject from her hypersensitivity to Dr. Laura's use of the (argument winning)"N-Word". Even when Laura was talking about how it is used on TV all the time.
-had the balls to have her wait during the commercial break, clearly couldn't think anything over and then when the commercial was over and came back was even more ****ed up racist towards her.

Its the no non-sense, non "sensitive" (aww poor victim) approach to the problem. Telling someone they are not the problem when they are is not giving good advice. I don't give a **** if it is a "race" issue.

Nothing racist about it.
Can you point out the racism instead of dancing around and excusing this hypersensitive bitches problems?

Like Ive said. Black people aren't OWED any sensitivity when they call a radio show for advice making it the nation's business. Dr. Laura would be wrong to tell this woman that she ISN'T being hyper sensitive.

I was about to post something similiar, though it didn't have to do with me marrying. My take on her husband's friends and family is precisely what you outlined here: Curiousity. And this caller, instead of taking that opportunity to educate, takes that curiosity of something/someone new and makes it ugly.

I may have mentioned this in another thread at some other time, but when I was India, a white, blonde, [American] woman was a novelty and I got a ****load of attention. That aside, and related to what we're talking about though, was a day that I was in the rainforest hiking around looking at waterfalls. I was sitting next to some bamboo trees near the trail when a group of Indian folks started walking by. Their eyes opened wide when they saw me and they were quite excited. Two of the young girls ran back up the trail and came running back down with another white, blonde woman in tow. They were *showing* her to me. The woman, British, said to me, "They wanted to show you that they have a white woman too." I just laughed. There was nothing racist about it. They asked me questions, wanted to know about me and "my people". The other western woman and I sat and talked about how much attention we both got and she gave me some tips since she married a local.

The thing is, I could have taken it as some racist bull****, turned my nose up and gotten snotty. But that would have been inappropriate. My race [and nationality] was a novelty, they were curious and wanted to know more about a people that they had little interaction with. That's all it was.

Now, it's hard to get a full read on what the caller's situation was, but from what she said, it sounds like something similiar. It sounds like they're trying to get to know her and "her people" and she's getting all pissy about it instead of using that situation to educate.

LOL @ You still refusing to accept maybe she is just a little too sensitive about cultural differences and the fact that people are going to ask about them.

"her people" are fellow americans, not exotic. maybe you guys are right....maybe the n word was being thrown around out of curiousity.
