good statement, sea rex. Iv been called a cracker by black people before, it didnt bother me, but only reminded me that the jackass couldnt think of any one of my many other terrible traits. My mom often uses the statement "nigger" but only when referring to people who dont have "goals and ambitions" and will not get off their asses and make something of themselves. I dont think that racist or discriminative terms are right, but i also think that people should show some maturity and not be SO affended by little things. I remember that the disney movie "Mr. Magoo" was attemptedly boycotted by people saying that it made fun of deaf people. or when people were pissed off at star wars episode one because that thought that Jar Jar Binks was representing black people. these and many other examples are insane and should be laughed upon for the pure stupidity of people that just have a need to have others feel sorry about them. the whole "niggah" thing is stupid and doesnt make any sense and even proves that black people really dont care THAT MUCH about the word itself. the stupidest racist term ive ever heard is when black people call other black people "white" because they made something of themselves. they worked hard, got out of the ghetto, and now their old friends are pissed off at them because THEY wouldnt do the same. as bad as the people who say the discriminative words are, the people who get angry about a minor, indirected term and scream bloody murder for a bit of cash are just as bad.
