Every year the same thing happens since the CBB Jade Goody was in, every year there is a racist comment!

And every year its ignored, excused or just considered unimportant an issue to get involved in.

Oh, depending on what colour you happen to be, at the moment black definately is best :rolleyes:

its getting stupid, if he said it on the outside nothing would be said if ben had said it to him would have been diffrent we all no that, this world is getting stupid, if i called my next door neighbour a black ******* he could get me done for it, but he calls me a white bitch every time he sees me and i cant do nothing, see its all stupid and belive me i am not raciits at all my niece is black so are my auntys and uncles, coolio says that word all the time its a way of life

Coolio is black. It's not the same thing. He is one, thus, he can't oppress himself. Now, if he called someone a white (insert negative word), then he'd be thrown out. However, I doubt the producers want this word said at all. I think Coolio probably uses it at the end of every sentence when he's at home. :laugh2:

Emily is not black, thus, the word is oppressive. If you are black, you can't oppress yourself since you are one. It can't have the same impact. People should use any derogatory words, period. But it simply is not the same thing. If Emily called herself a cracker, she wouldn't be thrown out.

Is it fair, and it does make sense.

Are you gay? If you're not, then you can't say the word and get away with it.

emily never actually directed it to charley at any point!
if coolio had of used a word onsidered offensive to white people would he have been chucked out?

Coolio can say that word if he wants

So it should be alright for a white person to say Negro. :thumbs:

absolutely.

Negro is not a slur.

well...it depends how you say it...just the like the "N" WORD it's all about context...not just the word.

plus Negro is the Spanish word for black, so they have no choice but to say Negro...wonder how their BB goes :tongue:
