Warning: Spoiler! [ Click to expand ]

Offensive spoiler, do not open if easily offended.
I suggest you put that word in a spoiler, following with a warning about what is about to be said so you don't offend anyone like I did in that bold text. ^

Sorry, wasn't aware of the need to do this, thanks for informing me

A staff member can remove it if they wanted to, I wouldn't in this case as you are not intending to just be a idiot with the word.

This is really stupid and the arguments against it are just pathetic. Hope it gets resolved soon.[/quote]

If we make that argument here, a community wide statement needs to be made because clearly we cant have things two ways. Suddenly the n-word being used in popular songs and music videos is racist, but then those same people saying that make the argument you're using right now. It just seems to be a major double standard and something that needs to be clarified.[/quote]
Well very rarely will a popular song include the n word with its hard pronounced ending ("-snip-"), normally it includes the word "-snip-" which in itself is not actually racist but is a term of endearment used between African Americans. In the case where the word "-snip-" is used it is racist.[/quote][/spoiler]
