Topic : 09/12 The N-Word Debate

I have never experienced racism, BUT  think most of these people are causing their own racism.

        I got so upset  trying to write what I think that I give up.............

An African American is someone who is born in Africa and immigarted to America

Their children born here are "AMERICANS'  they are not Africans.....Anyone born in America is an AMERICAN....Where do they get  off calling themselves Africans

        I agree they should not be called the "N" word but .......we arent even allowed to call them Black or Brown...........even though they printed their own magazine called "EBONY"..............we cant call them ebony americans either.....  

        Should I be called a English-Scotch-Irish American because my great grandparents came from there?
  It  is disgusting to   see these so called "African Americans"  cause so much chaos trying to make us racist..when they are the ones who are the racist.

Amen to that! And don't forget the C-word, too.

what you are missing is what happened after slavery was abolished i remember the south and the water hoses and the dogs and the lynchings ...by the way i am white I think that you are way off base. I hear people use that word TODAY i hear them say things that should, but dont make them blush .I am hearing this young girl speak now and its obvious how far we have to go . well all i can say is those of you who use it are NOT welcomed in my home or in my life . I have no use for ignorance and lifes too short

IF BLACKS WANT THE N-WORD STOPED THEY NEED TO STOP USING IT.WHAT GIVES THEM THE RIGHT TO USE IT AND NOT US.AND WE CAN USE IT AND IM WHITE AND PROUD OF IT.WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOUR RIGHT AND THAT YOU CAN USE IT AND NOT US.GET A LIFE BECAUSE YOU ARE SOOOOOO WRONG

Dr. Phil please start a fund to send Paul Mooney back to Africa. He stated he was forced to be in America so I think several folks would help him out and contribute to a fund to send him back to a place he feels as his home. Apparently he doesn't make much money as a comedian, if he did and he feels he was forced to be here, he would already have gone to where ever he feels home is. No wonder people aren't bonding any better when you have people with his attitude!

People of color can use the N-Word but not any other race of people. Sounds racist to me.

I agree completely,  I am getting disgusted and it makes me sick that they keep telling us we are racists.  They had better take a look at themselves.

If you dont want anyone else saying it...Then dont use it yourself!!! 

Like i said...Dont call eachother names..that solves the problem.

 

Why is it okay for black people to use it and not everyone else? I thought you guys were fighting for equality...or it is equality when its convienient for you.

I would like to first state that I do understand how racism can effect people.  But over the years I am becoming numb to the plight of African-Americans.   We are bombarded by this issue on a daily basis.  I do believe that Dr. Phil has had at least two shows on this issue.  As a Native-American I think that it is time to look at what is a Real issue.  I think that everyone is a little racist towards Native-Americans.  In some instances it is to the point that people don't even talk about it or avoid it on purpose.  Most people think that we just run around with feathers in our hair and work at casinos.  There isn't a Holiday to celebrate the destruction of Africans or raciest mascots, and African-Americans still have a "home land".   Native-Americans don't, our country was taken from us.  I know that some of my views may be arguable, but I think that it is necessary to be blunt because it seems that the country is collectively ignoring the issue.  My people are more then a punch-line of a joke or holiday decorations.  My people were almost completely  wiped out.  I think that someone needs to look at the reservations and other aspects of life  and show that on daytime t.v. so that Americans can see the truth.  It seems that in this case, "Ignorance is bliss".

hun you do

THIS GUY IS JUST CRAZY.I WOULD'NT BE SCARED BUT I THINK YOUR RIGHT HES NUTS.
