You are out of touch Curtis, most people under 45 years old are way past all this. I have literally heard black people call white friends of theirs 'nigger' and white people call black friends of theirs 'nigger' back, and they just have a laugh. I know you and Shemp and Peter want to cling to your redneck world, but that world is over. You are TOTALLY CORRECT though....it is all about context relevant. I am British, and in that context there is no racism in it. It only has racism in it to old white guys and closet racists. These are the facts. You need to get over yourself as an arrogant American with your head up your ass. You are not man enough to apologize to me for slamming me as a racist for using the words 'colored people' which I still maintain is more acceptable than 'Black" or 'African American' and only closet racists would use the latter terms. 'Colored folks is totally innoffensive. Period. OffWorld
