Simius, I totally
agree on your opinions of double standards. Since when don't we have free
speech enough to say things that aren't widely accepted? Is it now wrong to not like another person of a different race? Should your career be ruined
because you have a different opinion than what the government mandated for the 'victim' groups?
Why is it if you commit a crime against a white man, it's a crime, even if the criminal was black. But if it was a white man, against a black man,
now it's a hate crime! Just like the whole Jena 6 deal. I was disgusted at the gall of the protesters who wanted the boys to be released with no
charges for beating up a white boy. You know how those same protesters would have reacted if it was the other way around. However, I would respect
thier opinion and right to protest it, but I also reserve the right to disagree with them.
I enjoy Dave Chappell too. And he has used 'Cracker', 'Honkey', and others, but do you see those banned from public use? If you type 'Honkey' on
this site, does it get changed and censored to "h-word"? No, because those words are okay, because it's against whites. Come
on people.
Those of you who say you don't care if a black person says 'the n-word', that's perfectly fine. But it's a double standard for it to get one race
in serious national trouble, and another to just be looked on and say "Oh, it's okay for him to say that, s/he's (insert victim group)” If
you’re offended so badly with mere words, you have problems.
In the words of the South Park judge; "If you want to hurt another human being you better make damn sure they are the same color as you are."
