There's a black man posting in this thread now (Me). I see what Angies saying but she's yet to comment on truly offensive words and the basics of political correctness. If you read my post you'll see that I'm against banning the like of Baa-Baa Black sheep but that don't mean I like hearing people use the N word.

But thats the point we're all arguing- PC gone mad. I'm not denying that there is a wrong ban on words such as 'N', I think thats right. But a line needs to be drawn where anything loosely associated or things where the meaning or roots aren't relevant/the same anymore instead of just putting a ban on the most ridiculous of words and phrases just to sugar coat the English language.
