Those type of statements are typically redneck code for calling someone a n!gger...
Really? That's not a very nice thing to say. Where can I find a copy of this "redneck code" that you're talking about? Is it printed on the back of some evil confederate flag somewhere or do I need to find the magical tablets in the lobby of a NASCAR race to learn the secret code?
The term ghetto goon is only racist if you use it in a racist concept. If falls into the category of redneck, hillbilly, uncle tom, and sellout. As if they are used accurately to describe what they are meant to. Using them outside of the context can be prejudice and racially insensitive.
For example: President Obama != ghetto Goon
Wocka Flocka Flame = ghetto goon
George W. Bush != Hillbilly, Redneck, etc
Deryl Dedmon, Jr = Hillbilly, Redneck, etc
Need I go on? I shouldn't.
However terms that are clearly racist were created just to be racist: Jiggaboo, Cracker, N*gger, Porch monkey, jungle bunny, White Trash, Honky, *****, ****, etc. The list goes on.
I voted no. My family Background includes German, Polish and Russian. On the Polish side, i heard stories of the ghetto they lived in, Whole families, and in some cases, more than one family in a small apt/home the size most single people won't even live in these days.
We all know what a goon is, that's got nothing to do with race.
Anyone who thinks Ghetto Goon is racist, is uneducated, blind to the truth, or both.
I know that and you know that along with many others but because they think we are stupid they don't realize that we know what these words mean.
It has nothing to do with what you think, I KNOW you don't know what the words mean because if you did you wouldn't have started this thread.
I could start a thread with the word "*****rdly" in the title and you would trip over yourself to report me even though you have no clue what the word actually means. You just feel it's racist, you hope it's racist, you want it to be racist. LOL
Maybe because blacks tend to live in 'ghettos' more than whites? It's not prejudice; it's reality.
lol, I think you watch to many movies.
