Students expelled over photos posted on snapchat

I see what you mean, but if you catch your kids hand in the cookie jar, do you think that is the first time they've done it? I haven't seen the FB posts on what was sent to the Uni vs. what we've seen on the "feeds". For someone to do this means they know what they're doing is wrong, don't care, think no one will know, and offended the right "friend". I'd bet a Chili Mac MRE she has a track record of this being she said using nigga is common in her circle.

Candy Alkaabi - Ma'am sometimes comedy has a way of showing the ignorance of certain things, nigga being one of them. I do find this skit funny, but informative as how one can "use" the word, but not mention the word directly. When you see the facial expressions, you can really see the confusion in the short mans face.

PO1 John Crafton - I agree with you. I don't say it, so why am I going to give you a "pass" to use it on me or another. Where I've seen it get tricky is when it's used to describe a situation. It stumps me when that is the reason given justifying it's use. But we're ALL guilty of it. Whites have their names for each other, and I've heard some go back and forth using "Cracker" as an example.

PO1 John Crafton - You won't get an argument from me on your comment.

SSG Warren Swan - I will say I twas a little funny I was talking about people using it casually and acting like its cool to use it like its not an issue.

I think you have a few points wrong MSgt. As an AMERICAN who is Black, I do find the word ignorant and normally the user of the word just as ignorant. As far as rap goes, what are you basing this on? Who are you expecting to raise hell? If you listened to the core of the music, it's industry made, so they all act the same, look the same, and do much of the same shit. BUT if you listen to Hip Hop, there is a message. The word isn't used as much if at all. But you won't hear conscious Hip Hop on the radio....it won't pay the bills. Ignorance sells hence those of us who are real Heads know the difference much like I know there is a HUGE difference between Hank Williams and FGL. Now on the blackface, that was/is used by whites in certain areas of the world for different reasons. Sticking to the US, it was used to demean and make negative connotations of Blacks and was accepted as such. Blacks were not given any acceptance unless this was done for the entertainment of another race. Weird how someone who is black, has to become "blacker" and make buffoons of themselves for pennies. On to "White Chicks", again it was a comedy, but you skipped Soul Man, Blazing Saddles, and other movies where either the word was used, or someone used another races "color" to make the movie work. Blazing Saddles was so far ahead of it's time it's unreal. And "White Face" does not have the historical derogatory background Blackface does. I'm not justifying either one being I've never watched White Chicks, just seen bits and pieces of it. Hypocrites and double standards? Historically who made them in the first place, now lets go forward and make strides to stop the use of them.

I'm just a deplorable cracka and that seems to be less offensive to the same people who offended by the N word.

Not true. I wouldn't let me be disrespectful over a word. That applies to you too. Some things are better left in your brain housing group than mentioned. I've read many of your posts and what I'm saying is true

SSG Warren Swan - they forget that they also hurt the natives with the black face thing, there were movies where they made fun of the natives spiritual paint and one type was to blacken the face partially or completely. They took liberties with the color of peoples skin and cultural aspects then made fun of them for entertainment. They also let the black folk, natives, and Asians of all types perform in the clubs but they weren't allowed to be members of those clubs, even the ones with money to spare were turned away because of skin color. It is unreal that some people over look these things as if they weren't really that bad but those of us that dig deeper find worse crimes committed than the ones layed out on the surface!
