You are delusional dude. I mean seriously. Libs are going nuts over the possibility of Trump used the N word. Not me. I dont care much because it’s used by the very people who it supposedly offends. And they did not earn the right to say it. All those who did are dead now. So its YOU PEOPLE who need to show integrity. Are you going to hold Trump to a standard that you have maintained without fail all your life ? Or are you just gonna be typical lib hypocrites.
As I stated earlier I used the word discussing race relations with some guys (who were black) on my college football team (I was the lone white guy in the running back room) and with other (mostly black) fellow NCOs during my Army career. In both cases the guys I was talking with knew me well enough to know I wasn’t a racist and I would never use the term as a pejorative, so we were all comfortable to have some really good discussions. As a black man, does that make any sense?
Makes perfect sense! You were seeking to educate yourself and you were around people who felt comfortable enough with you to speak freely.
I am a military brat and grew up around mostly white people. Some of my white friends would always talk to me about the word but never use it casually or in a derogatory way.
Thank you. Respect. I think in these discussions we learned a lot from each other. I never knew the challenges a lot of black folks faced growing up and some of my black friends didn’t realize not all white folks were racists and some wanted to educate themselves about people from other cultures.
As an aside, my best friend in Basic Training was a black guy from Idaho. When we met I told him I didn’t think there were any black guys from Idaho. He replied, there aren’t any, I’m here now. We sort of hit it off after that.
Voted for Bush Twice, supported part but not all of the Patriot Act, have never been a Rush listener though I have heard him on rare occasions, no longer watch Fox or cable news in general for that matter.
I didn’t listen to Rush or Fox for decades but I wanted to hear what they were saying over the last year. So I will listen in at times or read their words. The stuff that is said here is many times word for word. As I’m sure everyone knows.
