What a shitty comparison.

It's a great comparison. You don't have a case if you are the one being hyper-sensitive. Society doesn't have to change it's behavior to make room for your fringe demands.

Ya, I can tell (after doing a search myself) than you found a survey with results skewed in your favor before posting it and this weak shit was all you could find.

I'm glad that you went out and found more polls that support me, then.

I'm not making any demands. I'm just saying it's fucking stupid for a white guy to tell other ethnic groups the they shouldn't be offended. But I'm not saying that we should tell them they should be offended, either. Just that it should be up to them.

I posted the first one I found just to show you that 9%/91% may not be factual numbers and is really just splitting hairs, ultimately. If they say they're not offended, so be it. I have no dog in this race. I am not Native American. See what I'm getting at?

And I'm saying that the term has lost all offensive connotation in today's usage by the Washington Redskins. There is no demonstrable damage, as determined by a court. The majority of Native Americans don't find it offensive. There are legal principles that say that when you act reasonably, you are not liable to some fringe person's needs. For all intents and purposes, that term has been "public domained" into non-offensiveness, both by the people using it and the vast majority of people hearing it.

So I'm saying get the fuck over it.

It's up to them whether they want to sulk about it, maybe; it should no longer be up to them to be able to force the mainstream into abandoning use of something that is now significantly part of OUR cultural heritage, ie, football.

Are you telling me to get the fuck over it? I believe I've already told you several goddamn times I'm not Native American and don't feel qualified to make an opinion one way or the other.

Ya, ok, maybe.

I have discussed this with black friends before and the general consensus is, it's all about context, e.g., "What's up, nigga!" is a lot different than "You fucking nigger!"

So you think I can now start greeting my black friends with "What's up nigga" and they will be o.k. with that? Don' think so.

Question. Regarding the "N" word, I see and hear black people use the word often and black comedians as well. There doesn't seem to be any offense taken in that setting so is it the word that is offensive or who is saying the word?

The same reason you can call your wife a bitch if she's being one but if someone else calls her a bitch, you'd be pissed.

To be fair coming from you they would probably find it hilarious.

I'm saying whoever has a problem with it should get the fuck over it.

That seems to be a response of "who says it".
And by the way if I called my wife a bitch, I would immediately be minus a dick or other vital limb. :art
