We knew the American RAF pilot, Joe McCarthy. He became a real estate agent in Virginia and managed properties for my mother in the late 70s and early 80s. Fascinating old guy.

I don’t think people should use racial, ethnic, or religious slurs. Thanks to my parents, I never do, and I’m surprised when others do. However, if “nigger” is so destructive that it can’t be said by any white person, even in a historical sense, “The pilots had a dog named Nigger,” then why is it in common use among some of the richest and most successful “entertainers” and political hacks in America?

My answer is that any stick to beat up non-”progressive” society will do, no matter how silly or inconsistent it is.
