Quite right . We all know the rules now , she forgot them , justified reaction .

[Sgt. Pepper]

"White lady MP"

I doubt that a Black, Male MP would have got away with using the N word in public .
But her using it, smacks of how utterly out touch these buffoons really are, and the OP's hinted opinion that she was somehow hard-done-by maybe illustrates how the hell these feckers get voted for, and by whom, in the first place.

Been done to death, you can search all the arguments online, some interesting social commentaries from all sides, however 99.9% are from America.

****** in the UK has no place, and very very few British artist use it in songs lyrics, ether as a term or endearment, insult or a flippant remark. I'd love to know which tracks you heard it on that the BBC broadcasted?

****** has been classed as a racial insult dating back to late 1800's, the word has strong connotations intended to demean and insult. This isn't a slip of the tongue as some recent change brought about by the "PC brigade", what she said is offensive to some people as shouldn't really be used in public, its shows a lack of class and intelligence.

What's your thoughts?

he didn't think anything about calling his dog ****** because back them it was casual racism, he probably thought it was all a jolly caper, times change and so do perceptions and sensibilities, remember he was a RAF chap, what

ahhh so it all depends on context and if it offends the person in question
if he din mean nothing nasty by it then its used in a diff context I give
an example
when I go to see my mrs in kent I'm called taffy sheep shagger with chuckle
does not bother me in the the slightest I just get on with it
like I say context

Taffy and sheep shagger obviously aren't in the same league as ******, but context is important. I once had to tell someone to stop calling me taffy because he wasn't doing it in a jokey way - he thought English people were better than Welsh and he meant it as a slur. Others have called me it with no problems.

you cannot compare attitudes in the 1940s to now, thats the main point, ****** was probably much more acceptable then

I apologize about our knuckle dragging racist Neanderthals

[I.8.POLITICAL.CORRECTNESS]

Black and White 'comedians' on talk show - using the N word. Is this the same or worse as the MP ? or is it completely different ?



Ive got a mate who is black and uses that word, but he does it in a way where he sometimes wants to show off he isnt scared of using
it - personally I wouldnt ever use the word

I prefer the word coon or wog myself lol (before I'm jumped i dont I'm being satirical)
I see nothing bad in that clip clarkie actually funny clip

Thanks but it's not necessary, unless of course you have sat near me at a game in the past and given me a death stare for not standing up because I hate England.
