Visitor,
The last episode was tight!!!!!

I don't get mad when I hear white people say that word...it's like they accent the last syllable to hard...we say the word better than them!! It's like what Richard said about his clothes on the Evolution Revolution disc, blacks take negative and flip to be a postive.Richard said he was wearing clothes that were made to make him look bad but he still made it fly....when think how depressing the Evans family had it but it was still "Good Times"....

I understand both sides of the argument though because the word was recently sprayed on a local church in my area...if this had been 40 years ago there would have been rallies etc. in the community but now we are so use to the word it has lost it's impact...but is this a good or bad thing?

bingolong,

That was the first time I've watched it, thanks again for turning me on to what I've been missing.

I'd like to think it's a good thing but who the hell am I. Maybe as time passes it will lose it's ability to cause pain but I don't think the word itself will go away. I used to work with a elderly lady who I love dearly that did volunteer work in a NC hospital and someone said it and the look of pain in her eyes was so sad, I can't imagine what she remembered that caused that pain but all she did was squeeze my hand and give me a smile. I was watching Chris Rock the other night and his bit about "who's causing all the problems" was funny as hell but I think he was hanging shit on people who think like that just like the quote from Mark Twain and Mr. Pryors television show regarding "send them back to Africa". Maybe another 40 years will go by and nobody will really care one way or the other, I just don't want to see that look on anybodys face again for any reason.

Besides I'm doing my part to stamp out the white race one little half breed at a time.. ;p

hellifiknow, damnit thank me sucka, I started this thread!!!!! as far as the n word goes..even though my step dad is black, and my lil brother is mixed..I feel I have no right to use the word..I've never used it on stage..but I have to admit..that's what my lil brother, and my pop call me and I use it with them..but that's kinfolk

hellifiknow,
Murphdogg's got a point....but I will swipe any all credit if ya let me...

Murphdogg,

Thank you too seenyor...I had a friend back in the 60s and 70s that we used to see what peoples reaction would be if we would start yellin slurs and then knock the dog shit outa each other, we even roll reversed a couple times to see if anybody noticed...usually people just freaked and hauled ass but one time we got maced by a older than dirt security guard we was testing...that really sucked.
