Strike Three
I love how you are attacking me on a personal level.
You must be real mature.
I'm sorry but you are making your own definitions to words. This is something you can't do, period.
QUOTE
However, using a racial slur does not make you a racist.
This is my main gun, and im sticking to it
I know this is going to sound like a shit argument, but hear it out
Why can black people refer to other black people as niggers?
A term does not become abusive or racist unless someone of that race deems it so. Since a black peron does not consider it abusive when another black uses the word nigger, it is therefore not a racist word. When a white person uses the word, they feel it is abusive in nature, and once again since it is dealing with race, it is what...................racism by definition.
QUOTE
Really? Then does that mean that all people of an ethnic group who use their racial slur amonst themselves are racists?
If I call one of my white friends a nigger, cracker, etc that is not racist, you are correct. The second I turn around and say it to a black person it is racist why.....................because they feel it is abusive in nature, which makes it racist by definition.
When I call my white friends crackers, I do not consider it racist, when a black person calls me one, I find it abusive in nature and I am of the other race.....................racism by definition. If I know the black person and they are someone am friends with, I will not find it abusive.
Since I find it racism, it doesnt mean I am going to "scream" racism, but it is racism by definition.
Now, I understand your point here, but you failed to express yourself correctly. You did so in a manner that made you appear as if you didnt know the definitions.
