If I know a simple word can offend someone, I will refrain from using it. That is not really a big ask is it?

I totally can compare caucasian and negro as equal terms for racial type, especially when i have both genetic types in my own body. Times change of course but we are not puppets - we are the creators of our own reality. We do not have to blindly accept whatever the media tells us is the 'in' or 'out' words of the day. Especially when the media is fickle and changes its mind according to whim or fashion.

If we just follow the herd every time without question then we are giving our personal power away, carte blanche, which is a dangerous place to be. These debates are not just healthy - they are essential to our freedom.

Offence is not in the words alone - it is in the intention behind them. I'd rather have someone call me a 'negro' in jest, than have someone call me an 'disgusting pig' and mean it.

But in the BB house for example, you cannot say 'negro' in jest but you can scream 'disgusting pig' in someone's face and mean it. That, to me, is all wrong.

Too often we are getting caught up on the words and totally missing the intention behind them: which is where the real deal is.

I'm getting tired bro so i'm hitting the hay. Been good talking to you. Peace out.
