ok, honest question for the proponents of "thug" is code for "black":
is "racist" now simply code for "white conservative", and has nothing to do with racism anymore, but is simply used to smear and marginalize an entire group with an unsavory label because they disagree with the political positions, and methodology of social solutions, that are proposed, implemented, and supported by the left?
seems to me there is a stronger case that "racism" is now code for "conservative" than "thug" is now code for "black." i will be fascinated by the contorted responses i expect to see for those all wound up about the word thug.

Racist = white conservative isn't a code word. I use them interchangeably because they are. White conservatives are usually racist, either directly or by supporting unapologetic white supremacy.
Anyone who thinks "thug" is a racist term needs a lobotomy.

Seriously though, "thug" isn't a racist term. So tired of political correctness.
anything could be a racist term when meant to be racially derogatory. i was on xbox live and some people were calling cole (the black character from gears of war) a n*gger. i asked them not to use that word so they thought it was funny to literally refer to me as the phrase the n-word (so instead of saying something like "give me ammo, n*gger" they would literally say "give me ammo, n-word"). i was still offended so i muted them.
The useless, POS criminal scumbag was white. Sometimes useless, POS, criminal scum are black, and are referred to the same way. Only the particularly ignorant would use the "race card" here. Even worse is that many liberals in particular seem to have a problem differentiation between black criminals and blacks as a whole.
that was posted yesterday. do you have any examples of you using the word thug to refer to a white prior to the start of this thread ?
Political correctness has run amok. Today I was buying bird seed and they are now labeling Niger seed, Nyger seed, because some people are stupid and might pronounce it wrong.
How about we start calling a thug, a thahg?

Congratulations. ...Thats one of the best examples of left wing racism and exactly the sort of stereotyping the left claims to be so against that I've ever seen.
So no one wants to explain to me why Richard Sherman was called a thug, despite the claims that word isn't used to describe blacks?
Figures. I have a word to describe that, but it isn't thug.
I have heard Sherman called a good football player, but never a "thug". What are you talking about? Are you just trying to stir the pot? Sounds like it.
