Conservative radio host thinks it's "idiotic" that you can't say the N-word; blames "disgusting" liberals
Only his own cowardice prevents him from using the word, but its nice he manages to shift the blame on someone else.

Go ahead, use the word. Of course after he uses it, he has to own it, and take personal responsibility for the consequences.

I would imagine most Trump voters use the N-word regularly in the privacy of their own home when describing Obama and other prominent black democrats and celebrities they dislike.
Half black Obama has always had right wing racist hate against him...now ignited and fomented to a raging wildfire and perpetuated by Trump in the form of emboldened white right wing posters with racist subjects on a third to half all topics on this political board at any given time.

Some wise guys could find some loopholes, like using a word who sounds close to the n-word as in the South Park clip then I mentionned in an earlier post, naggers or using a word in another language who spelled differently but sound like the "F-word" in Family Guy who mean "seal" in French.

I would recommend to Prager not to talk about this because we already have liberals calling us racist 24-7 and this will just go into their hopper to distort. lol

You can't have real conversations with liberals b/c get hysterical over everything.
Correction: Americans, left or right, become hysterical over everything. They ain't happy unless they're pi$$ed off about something, or making someone else pi$$ed off about something.

I have the CHOICE to say it, and you couldn't stop me if I chose to do so.

However, unlike Obama's buddies, I choose not to.

You have zero say in the matter and are powerless.

Good luck with your faux outrage.

Oh, boohoo, you can't say you own the word and other people aren't allowed to use it.

The N-bomb was dropped a lot at the WH while Obama was there. Which basically proves the improvement over the last 3 years.

*****rdly is not related to the N word. I see City Data doesn't know the etymology of the word either...sigh. It blocked it out.

You can call anyone *****rdly, regardless of religion. What is ignorant, is saying that all people that belong to that religion share the same trait.

I've always been bothered by the insidious nature of saying "the N-word" because whenever I hear that, the REAL N-word flashes through my brain unconsciously. I find it to be the most despicable of all the ethnic slurs and I wish Blacks would stop using it too.

I'm all for socially banning the word, but no word should be legally banned. (BTW, I'm not implying you want that)

There are a few words I personally choose not to say, but that is a personal choice.

I will say nobody should be given a pass on it unless it's used in historical context, such as a person explaining it's origin and disturbing past, or in appropriate literature. Mark Twain used it, but not for his own malice, but to paint an accurate picture of the times.

Rappers are just as guilty as the a LA skinhead when they blurt it out irresponsibly.

Oh, I also give a pass to comedians using it to lampoon racism.

You’re choosing not to use it because you can’t afford to be caught using it with black folks. You know how that’s gonna go. Sure, I know you Texans are supposed to be Billy Badasses, but let’s not get carried away.

Why would you wish that?

What we’re saying to each other is of no consequence to you. It’s not like you’re even around to hear us say it.

You can’t give a pass to anyone for using the word. The word isn’t yours, and you don’t belong to the group in possession of it.

I understand that you CHOOSE not to say the word, but let’s be real...it’s because you can’t withstand the consequences of using it anyway. So it doesn’t matter that you’re choosing not to use it.

Lol...you’re cracking me up because you seem to think that you can give a pass to comedians, but deny rappers access to it. If the comedian or the rapper is black, you have no role in pass giving.
