The blatant bias on this forum is getting tiresome. I've been around this forum long enough to remember what it was like before you know who took over the asylum.

Umm, what? I have never seen this. I don't see too many white folks react when they hear the term "cracker" used, or other slurs/insults. The idea of any white person being offended by this is comical. When I worked in Detroit, people were always writing "white devil" or "cracker" on the film of dirt of people's cars. Someone wrote "die cracker" on my car one. Big whoop. I take it as a sign that they are of low class with little opportunity in this world and feel thankful that I am not in their shoes.

It was likely deleted because topics about people using the word are getting quite tiresome. Rappers use this word constantly and no one even flinches. It an obvious double standard.

Sorry but Racist insults are racist insults.

Both are very derogatory.

Paula Deen is 66 and she grew up in Georgia. Of course she used that word. Supposedly, the last time she used that word was in the 1980's in a conversation with her husband. Of course, that doesn't make for a juicy headline "Old Southern White Lady Used To Use Racist Words 25 Years Ago"

How many of you, if you were asked under oath, could say that you never used a racist term against anyone?

I somehow even doubt that it was 25 years ago, probably more like "last week". I have white acquaintances in Atlanta and it seems like they're always talking like that. One of them refers to the place where he works at (DMV) with all black women as "the coal mine". They are white in a society that gives them a considerable amount of privilege, even with a substantial black middle/upper class that exists there.

That is probably because there isn't a repulsive or derogatory slang term for a whitey. But I have noted how conservatives using this forum seem to be okay with someone using a racial slur for a black person.

IMO, blacks need to come up with something other than redneck, kracker, or h*nk*y, because most white people just grin when they're called those, which aren't really racial slurs at all to them.

If we started hanging white people and calling them those names, they might think differently about those words. Just a thought.

But that could get expensive, do you realize how much Hummers cost? It would be great to burn one of those in a white racist's yard. Just a thought. oh, wait, they'd probably run for the marshmallows and a case of beer.

If its Paula's yard, she'd run in the house for a side of beef and a bucket of butter.
