I learned a lot time ago that “free speech” means CONGRESS can’t pass certain laws.

It doesn’t mean you won’t get your ass kicked if you say the wrong word to someone who can kick it.

Hey, I’m free to wear a KKK outfit and walk through Compton, too; but I doubt I’m going to get much sympathy if I get a butt kicking as a result.

Honestly, the number of guys on here who get their undies in a bunch because blacks can use the ‘N-word’ and they can’t is pathetic. Gee, so you can’t use a couple of words, out of 100,000 in the English language and some black folks can- why the hell should that bother anyone? BFD

That they want to use that word in their ‘music’ and I would face ostracism and/or an ass kicking for doing so just doesn’t bother me.

No, it’s a double standard. If a group of people find a specific word so injurious, they should stop using it themselves. You don’t hear women running around calling each other “c**ts” for good reason.

“...out of 100,000 in the English language...”

English has easily 175,000 words in common use and by many estimates nearly a million total.

You miss the point.

They put so much energy into going after people who say a word, rather than focusing on all the black-on-black violence and the rot in the sub-culture, that have nothing to do at all with “whitey”, perhaps if they gave that the focus it needs, they would be much better off, but no, they’d just rather bitch about somebody using “that word.”

Then you don't mind the proposed prohibition against you wearing the (racist-to-some) MAGA hat in public.

True or false?
