I can't imagine Chief Corey getting a chance to apologize if a similar video emerged from his past. But whatever.
I agree. Double standards exist though. It is what it is. I had a Philipino friend in college who used to use the N word freely around black people. No one batted an eye. Imagine if I did that.
In the context of what he said, it's really not a big deal. He was basically saying that there'll be black people that will tell him not to run and his reply to them would be to put up or shut up. In his eyes, he "put up" while in the NYPD and his question to them would be, "would they rather have a "cracker" run who didn't do anything"?
He ain't far off. BDB was a straight up (corrupt) dumbass. lol there are smart thieves but BDB wasn't one of them.
Not a big deal. It's like accusing someone white of being racist because they refer to "ghetto trash". Cracker = dumb white, a hick. Plenty of dumb whites.
It's an epithet. Not a slur.
it's rooted in race and slavery though, just like that big no-no word that only blacks can use...lol
calling white people is calling them slave owners and masters....lol...just an epithet...lol.
Using your ''logic'' then, the "N" word is an epithet and not a slur as ''Cracker'' is an epithet and not a slur; both epithets are both rooted in and come from slavery.
“ Lopez-Pierre, who is the founder of Black Lives Matter Real Estate Forum and describes himself as an “Agitator, Advocator & Activist,” wrote that he was proud to vote for Adams.
“Black people can trust NYC Mayor Eric Adams to make sure Black businesses get Billions of Dollars in NYC Contracts Mayor’s Office,” he wrote with the video post.”
wonder if Lopez-Pierre is subject to BLM- IRS trouble brewing. Sounds like he was one of those sub-chapter groups that didn't a $$ handout from the Master BLM organization...lol.
Master BLM reported $0.00 to the IRS in 2020...lol
And speaking of BLM & Real Estate, the Marxist sista who had to resign last spring after picking up her 3rd property in all white, gated in LA's Topanga-Malibu Canyon...at least the IRS has some potential collateral to lien.
Who didn't know the Marxist-Master BLM 2020 was a huge white-guilt and corporate shakedown? lol
Of course this Pierre Lopez dude voted for Adams. Lopez-Pierre knows or thought that using or associating anything with BLM=white guilt/corporate $$ transfer to his bank account.
Bro, whites in the south (where this term originated) don't even view it as a slur. It's not a slur. It's an epithet; a deragotory description. It's basically the equivalent of "ghetto trash"/"white trash".
I don't even think there's a general slur for whites. Whites were never a monolith in the US. There are slurs for ethnic groups among whites ; Irish , Italian, Jews, etc.
"White" as an adjective said in a sneering tone with curled lips is the general slur.
He can talk all he wants. He can grab those crackers by the p(*&^.* too.
What he Needs to do is do something about those crackers shooting everyone in Harlem, shoving people onto subway tracks in midtown, and stop releasing whackos onto the street to curb stop elderly Asians.
Don't try to make people outraged at him for saying the C word. George Jefferson does it better anyway.
We should already be outraged by him being a white De Blasio
At least he can't tell the crackers they have to live in the city when his real residence is in New Jersey.
