People don't need to stop using the word, people need to stop giving a word such power. It's only an issue because people MAKE it an issue.

I am more shocked at how she treated the caller. Pretty rude for telling her to be quiet and let her finish just so she could say the word a little bit more when this person blatantly said, she isn't comfortable with these comments. People actually called her for personal advice? Dumb bitch.
The reason, I think, black people can use it and get away with it is because they are really trying to take away its power but I have it heard it before said to one of my friends, who is black, as a very intentionally derogatory term. When I heard the guy say it to him, even I became filled with anger. I've made plenty of racist jokes to him and he doesn't care when I do it because he knows we're friends and I never mean it but I'm not stupid to say anything like it around people I don't know. It really is a word that white people will never understand how it feels to be called that.
BTW, Dave Chappelle used the term but he has said he wishes he would have been more responsible with it during his stand up and show because random people of all races would walk up to him in front of his family and say "What's up ******!?" and stuff like that and he didn't like it at all.
Looks like Laura reignited another war

Years ago I went on a cross country road trip and would listen to the radio as best I could. In a lot of areas, it was impossible to find a non-country FM station so I'd flip on the AM dial and the only clear thing you could find was either Rush Limbaugh or Laura.
All the Laura shows were people calling in and she'd just be a total condescending maniac. She'd tell people not to date/marry people outside of their faith and she'd basically tell women that it's their job to cook, clean and blow their husbands any time their husband asks...and when they don't, that's why men cheat. She's just a bitter, hateful and abusive woman. I never understood how she had regular listeners.
Anyway, here she is, naked of her clothes and "morality"

Honestly talk radio drives me nuts, i don't know how people listen to it in cars. Most hosts make money on bullshit rhetoric.
BTW comedians can say whatever they want if people laugh. Besides someone has to be free to color outside the lines.

It's not pc it is a simple reality of context. There are many ways people can refer to each other where it can be taken one way or another.
It's not pc for a Marine to refer to another Marine as 'jarhead' or 'leatherneck' while some goober running around Oceanside calling Marines 'jarheads' possibly getting the shit kicked out him.
A chick can call herself or allow her friends to refer to her as 'crazy bitch' while it is an otherwise pejorative for a stranger to refer to someone that way.
Some people take being called 'slut' differently than others depending on the circumstances.
Some immigrants refer to other immigrants as FOBs (fresh off the boat), etc.
What's PC is politicians affronting the constitution by attacking other Americans for exercising a constitutional right in building a place of worship on property they have a legal right to.:horse:

shes always seemed like a self-righteous bitch to me so fuck her...i'm sure she got upset and said some stuff she wishes she hadn't (not that she doesn't believe it but just that she wishes she says she didn't say it out loud) but nonetheless ratings are key for advertising, advertising is the key for making money, so anytime you fuck up and make advertisers start dropping like flies your show is getting canceled

Re: U.S. talk show host who used the 'N' word 11 times to a black caller on the air q
ok yeah she comes off like a know it all, she always has.
she's kind of arrogant, thats why i never liked her.
but what exactly did she say that was wrong factually?
the subject was about the word and she used the word when talking about it.
boo hoo, she's right, theres too much hypersensitivity.
too much trying to find racism where it isn't.
this trend gets worse everyday, even this board is proof.
sad what happened to that country and scary to think about the future of it.

Re: U.S. talk show host who used the 'N' word 11 times to a black caller on the air q
She suggests it's okay to use an epitaph in a racist context because others use it in another context.
It would be no different from her making light of rape just because there are some who act out rape fantasies with their consensual sex partners.
Do you get it now?

What was wrong is that Laura immediately disregarded this woman's accounts of being blatantly stereotyped and called a ****** by White in-laws. In this snarky, condescending, angry and pompous tone, Laura insisted that this woman is basically part of the problem because she doesn't like being called a ****** or answering for Black people.
Sure there's hypersensitivity in our culture and sure there is race card shenanigans going on all over the country. But this mad woman is justifying the blanket use of the word "******" before the caller could even finish her account of being called the term. It's un-fucking-real.
You're rigid, man. It won't kill you to bend a little every now and then. Admitting that Laura was wrong doesn't mean you have to amend your beliefs. It just means that she was wrong. She doesn't represent White people, Jewish people, women or Conservatives...she represents only herself and calling bullshit on her is a reflection of nobody. Maybe you genuinely don't think she was out of line, but I just can't imagine that anybody could hear that call and not understand why it evoked some hostility.

No, no no..do you even know what the word N*gger mean?. it's mean Low.Ignorance.Stupid, and many other low and hateful thangs.
and you don't understand why it's a Issue^^^ this is why people make it an issue. I grew up in Wash Dc If i had a dime for everytime i heard my older brother friends call each other a N*gger I'd damn rich. I've never called anyone that word and never will. I also sigh on the spot when any of my friends call me a N*gger.

AS far as she goes....... Bitch went loco :dunno:
We have been re-purposing words that have been around for eons and giving them polar opposite meanings in some cases. Now context and tone play a big role.....
I have to agree with :horse:
ah screw it time to move on.......

Re: U.S. talk show host who used the 'N' word 11 times to a black caller on the air q
ok.
but the conversation really went no where.
the lady first said some person always asks her "how do blacks feel about that?" alot.
the host said in her usual aggressive demeanor " so what, thats not racist, lighten up" something to that effect.
ok, no problem so far i think.
then the caller said "how about the n word" and the host then repeated the word a bunch of times
the caller said the word also, several times.
then the caller started actually getting somewhat racist by saying its not right when whites say it but its ok when blacks do.
the host could have handled it differently, but more so the caller could have not began to make a big deal out of it considering the context was in no way name calling.
but she got offended because the word came out of a whites mouth.
I just don't think its a big deal, i think people need to lighten up.
what really bugs me is the media's report of it , "racial rant" just to stir the pot, make money at the price of promoting more racial divisiveness in the country.
and of course the bad guy is always..............who?

Re: U.S. talk show host who used the 'N' word 11 times to a black caller on the air q
Are white Americans the only group of people who use words (labels) to degrade people who are different from them? :dunno:
There's more out there than the N-word. I'm waiting for Faux News and the Tea Baggers to begin using the Mexican slurs in public discourse.
Petra made an interesting point about words having power over us. But, how do we stop/limit that power? My answer: Equality in Education. Hmmm. We don't seem to have that in our education system do we? :dunno:
