    Typical of the twenty-something generation. They are too full of themselves to notice their shortcomings.

      Another one of these?

      It isn't a racial slur and wasn't being used as one. N***** is the racial slur.

      Yes, people would have flipped out if Kaminski said "fuck that nigga", but I'm guessing those involved still wouldn't have seen it as a giant deal.

      People will continue to make a big deal out of this though

      So then it's perfectly fine for anyone to use the word nigga in any context without fear of repepercussion. Thank you Woody, that information will come in handy.

          Like I said in a different topic,

          the guys I work with say it all the time to each other, but ,me being white, if I said it to them, I'm pretty sure they would be pissed.

          Even if I said it with an "A" at the end, or an"ER" at the end.

              Not sure of any of you watch Tosh.O. I do and I enjoy the sick and crude sense of comedy.

              Any way, he once did a 'skit' where a White Man (an Internet video) claimed he wasn't being Racest because he used the term, "Nigga", rather than, "N*****". Very comparable to Woody's position on this.

              Anyway, Tosh made his point through 'parody' using mini-skits using terms like "JewboyA", "FaggotA", LesboA, etc.

              I hesitated to post this article because - lately - the tone of this Board has become kind of KKKA and I was trying to make a point. Or, asking a question about use of this term.

              While some, like Woddy, will claim, "Nigga" and "N*****" are two, very different terms. Regardless use of either terms smacks of being 'less than intelligent'.

              Can we all agree that Kaminsky has more class than this player will accumulate over the course of his entire life?

              Of course, I hope he is humbled and is brought to the understanding of what he did and how use of this term - by anybody - damages all people of color, as Obammy likes to say.

                I don't think this whole episode is a big deal. I don't think nigga is a racial slur. I don't think I was being used in a derogatory way (the first part of his statement, that was)

                Like I said, people would flip out of Kaminski said it. He never would though because it probably wasn't part of how he was raised.

                I really don't think this is a big issue, from the race side of things. Feel free to make it one though. Feed the 24 hr news cycle...

                      I know that gets some people in a tizzy but it is just acceptable amongst black people to call each other "nigga" and they will certainly be pissed about white people saying it. The UK player wasn't using it with any racial connotation. It was no different than saying"dude". Some white people can complain and yell about it being unfair that some words will give one race more heat than another but it still won't change anything.

                          And that is where I have an issue. The word has morphed into a social issue. If it is such a horrible thing for a non-Black American to use it why would Black America want to endorse it's use? I get the feeling it's a reason to be exclusive and use it as a lightning rod. Can't we just get rid of it already. In the 60s Asians were called Buddha Heads but who friggin says that now?
