[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 2721951, member: 24531"] well I've always heard and been told that "that word" applies to people of all races. It morphed from something people called blacks to demean them into both a term of endearment and an insult for a thug (including white); and this was supposedly based on context. So maybe you are onto something but I just choose to flush it rather than try to sort out the context. Even if you said it in what YOU thought was an acceptable context, there would be race baiters to hound you so I recommend dumping it from your vocab. You know what's in your heart...even some lurking here that have been watching this story and this thread but chose not to speak up know what's in their heart; whether they have said it or not. That's my opinion. [/QUOTE]
