I just want to know, if this 18 year old would have been a black american instead of a white american, and had used this language, would there have been the same backlash? or is it more than just the words he used? was it because his expressed dislike for these two black americans in the 300 that was unacceptable and racist?
also, assuming that what he said about having black friends and conversing with them using this language is true and they (his black friends) don't hate him for it, why should the color of his (OP) skin matter? if black americans can say it to each other, this white american can apparently say it to his black american friends, and black american rappers can say it all over the public airwaves, doesn't there seem to be a disconnect? or perhaps a double-standard? i mean all the outrage when the word is used by a non-black american would appear to be unfounded; or perhaps political
(PC).
i personally don't like the use of words like these, but don't believe that simply the use of the word is racist or hateful speach. if there is malice intent in the mind/attitude of the user, then yes, it is racism. again, i would not pull somethin like that on anyone because of the color of their skin and don't condone what the OP did. Also i can't stand the 'white cop + black culprits =
' comment he made. all racial profiling pisses me off!
btw, i do have non-white (asian, hispanic, african, black american) friends, and we do not use that language or the racial equivilants.

Who ******* cares if he says that that to his black friends? That's irrelevant as ****.
He said "nigs" and made stereotypical comments about them in this forum. Very ******* simple.
You people giving Unit **** need to stop your political bullshit.
Unit, I think you need to roast this mother ******.

I havent read the whole thread, but I think baiting someone into a ticket is a dick move. I had an 06 V6 stang try and mess with me and my radar detector was going off, so I didnt do anything and 10 secs later, a cop goes rolling by the other way. The guy flashed his lights at me to thank me at the next light. Why would you want someone else to get pulled over? That doesnt make sense unless they did something to deserve it.

saying your not racist because you have black friends reminds me of that ancient joke "im not racist, i have a color tv"
