ETC ETC ETC.

well whatever that says it all, were all the same to you right?

i have never used it, it disgusts me that anyone would, someone at school said what she did was okay and we had a bit of a lively dicussion in class, my side won. no matter how she meant it it was racist

why are you tring to prove? if i get beaten up in the street because of my race it's my fault than. would you turn to a rape victim and say women are stripper so what do you expect? i doubt it don't blame the victim.

good point, if people see every black person as being the n word that is well out of order, Its just a shame the major contribution black culture gives the world seems to want to keep black people down by using the word, not just by using the word but gloryiying violence, theft and other crimes.

Some white people are dumb enough to believe the hype.

No way should you get beat up for skin colour, my point was to illustrate how racism works both ways and how decent black people are being betrayed by there own culture.

okay. that i agree with.:thumbs:

Ah if only Bob was alive today, he'd sort it out.

No when I said... "Well whatever" I said it to when you said they use the word in Hip Hop music as I said they use it in RnB music... this stuff you call music is all the bloody same to me I dunno what they call it!

And easypeasy has a good point there... Nowadays it does work both ways so it isn't a one sided argument anymore... they should just stamp out racism altogether whether you are black or white!
*tries not to sing that Michael Jackson song* LOL!

if englands makes you sik dont live here

but dont judge by what you read or see what a few people do

There are heaps of people in England, and in (Scotland, Wales, and North Ireland) that don't support racism at all. You can't stereotype a whole country by a few ignorant people. It's a shame to know that there are some people in this country that use racist terms. But it's also comforting to know that there are many people against racism in forms. I'm content with the way the matter was handled. If you don't agree with how hings are going here, then move to the States, or Canada, or Spain. I feel like the situation was handled very well, and I'm proud that there has been such an outcry against racism.

I think everyone’s missing the real issue here. I believe that the comment made by Emily was a complete set up, after BB was slated after the business with Jade and Shilpa because Channel 4 handled the whole situation wrong by allowing the group that were at the centre of the Shilpa Shetty bullying to continue to stay in the house, which only outraged the viewers more. Therefore I believe they set the whole thing up so they could then remove Emily from the house immediately.
I have trouble understanding exactly for racism is. I mean I’m rather a large women and get offended if someone said “You fat cow” I would also be offended if someone wrote a song with the words “You fat cow” in the lyrics but when it comes to the word N***** its perfectly expectable, perhaps someone would be kind enough to explain why this this?

That is a very good point... how do we know that Channel 4 didn't set this all up... before the show began when they were in hiding they could have told them what to say!, when to say it!, and how to say it! (in order not to get so many complaints)... cmon think about it people... one of the many possibilites in order to get publicity and money! :shocked::shocked:
It all seems a bit fishy to me as we have another race row espcially how its occuring in the following series from the first race row! :conf::conf::shocked:
If this is the case then Channel 4 are absolute morons and have picked the worst time to do... if you are gonna be clever and pull a stunt like that at least pull it a couple of years after... all of this is coming from my wierd head and none of you have to read this really but think about it lol :hugesmile:

Well you could say I am on both sides of the fence. I'm a bus driver and work with many black guys, some of which call each other N****R..I personaly hate that word, not because of what it stands for today but what it stood for 200 years ago...the so called 'master race' (KKK) still use the word and teach their children what a nice word it is :puzzled:

On the other side, I have black nieces and nephews, I say black but they are all mixed race, but prefer black. My neice, the oldest, is the only one that calls me uncle N****R :laugh2: Funny I know, but I keep telling her I hate it but she says in the black community, blacks callng other blacks is not a bad thing as they have tried to turn a bad word into good...calling your friend a N****R mean like, brother.

As for BB, I agree she should have been removed from the house but after the last episode we had they should never had shown it.

I don't get why ppl are saying Emily was "nudged" into it, by singing hip hop and rnb songs.

How ridiculous, I am mixed race (half black) and I listen to alot of hip hop, also reggae/bashment music, though I personally dont use the word *****. And just because I listen to music which says it, it does not "nudge" me into it.

Emily clearly said she uses it at home among friends, not only that but I assume she is not the kind of girl who even listens to that much hip-hop and is more an "indie" girl as she has already said.

So how was she nudged into it?

And if on this occassion she was "nudged" into it, what about the other occassions SHE ADMITTED TO back home. Was she "nudged" then too.

C'mon ppl, don't try and defend the girl. She used a racist word, I have white friends who follow the "black" culture but they would know not to use the word, especially around someone you have just met.

Also there are not many white rappers you could find that use the word too.

I just cant see how someone would feel it is ok to use it bcos black ppl do. When black ppl use it, it is to identify someone, as a term of endearment, who is like themselves BLACK, uh, hello white ppl you are clearly not black, so why use it.

"your pushing it out you ******"

I do understand, how it being used in music/films can make others feel as though they can say it... but the point is, they cant, and they shouldnt, and you cant defend them for doing so.

yea, but ni***er does not = brother. N***er = SLAVE to be used by a white man.

People these days need to do some history and stop using that word.

Yeah exactly but there are some aren't there!!!

A very interesting example, thank you marky.

I think it comes down to a post I made in another thread... many people of different races who call themselves terms like that do it to ease the pain and humiliation they feel when a person of a difference race calls them it. And they say it amongst themselves in a way so that it's almost ridiculing people who call them it; making themselves feel comfortable when they're together, in other words. It does not mean they like the term. Well, normal ones don't.

So I don't understand why anyone should say it to them and make them feel hurt/confused in the first place. They (the teens in particular) try and put on a sort of 'hard' image so they don't get picked on, and act like it doesn't bother them... and it's developed.

C'mon now people calm down and have a strawberry!:wink:
Let's not think about this anymore... Let's think about tonight and those two guys going in! :spin: All this racism talk is p*ss**g me off now! it's over... it's in the past... I don't care anymore!
(And by the way before anyone says anything... I am NOT dismissing what happened... I'm just getting on with the rest of the series!) :spin:

Lets get off the Slave trade, that has nothing really to do with the subject..though I hate the word I see no reason why black guys and gals can call it between themselves, christ, I'm sure, for example, if a black guy walked up to his friend and said "Hey, ******" If he found it offensive he would tell him. I hear black guys calling each other N****R all the time, I even asked one driver if it offended him, he said no, it like saying "Hey, brother"

And yes..****** DOES mean, friend, bro, brov, blood!!! Go and ask a few black guys, they will soon tell you.

Well, actually I wouldn't know, I'm not gna say there aren't any because I haven't heard every lyric of every white rapper in the world.

But thus far in my life, I have not heard any.

AND, there aren't any in mainstream music that use it, which would be more understandable of how it would come about among everyday white ppl.
