I'm stealing this line from a few days ago.

It was probably just locker room talk.

Would that be a good excuse for what she said? No, of course not but it seemed to have been acceptable for many complaining now.

I'm condemning those who accept lame excuses condemning those who apologized.

Nuance and context are really lost on you aren't they.

Has King ever been accused of calling a jurisdiction a "****** county"?

Yet another example of a Democrat racist caught and exposed. This one is a suburban white woman who helped the Democrats pick up seats in the most recent election. Can't say I'm surprised, a lot of suburban liberal white woman are huge racists.

Don't get too high on that high horse, guys. Your boy Trump has used that kind of language and worse. If you think the N word hasn't come out of his mouth frequently, you are living in a dream world.

Plenty of Democrats are calling her out on this. I saw this earlier on the liberal sites I follow.

For me it was in my teens. I was raised by racists. When I knew better I did better.
