Free speech? Yes. Defendable speech? No. Sending her money? Pretty disgusting.

Black people call each other the "N" word in normal conversation all the time.
But when they hear a White say the "N" word.
Blacks act like they've never heard the word used before are hurt and offend.

It has to do with context.

Blacks use it ironically, just like gay people will say "queer" ironically.

But when white people say the N-word or queer, they mean it maliciously. Always.

Are there any forbidden names for white people ?

I wouldn't know. It seems no one says "Honkey" since the 1980s, and I think they stopped using Cracker as well.

Given this whole society is designed to make white people happy, I don't worry about it that much.

I object to the double standards. Libs are insisting that chanting “Death to Jews!” is free speech but want to criminalize offensive speech when it’s directed toward blacks.

Directed towards democrat blacks. Democrats have no issue with racist speech directed towards black people who identify as republican/conservative.

Nice double standard. At least you folks don't bother with illusions of equality, special treatment for liberal pets only. How pathetic.

The notion that only some groups can 'own' words is offensive and wrong. Free speech for some, criminal charges for others by the same folks who argued equality under the law for both interracial and degenerate queer marriage. Nice try hypocrite.

I disagree.
There are White people, especially the young ones, that love Rap music and like to sign the lyrics which use the "N" word every other sentence.
But they get a pass from Blacks because it also talks about shooting white cops, selling drugs, and beating up women.

It's sketchy but yeah it's free speech.

But wrong if used against a Jew? Why the double standard?

Calling a black kid a "little n****r" is no big deal but calling a Jewish kid "a little k**e" is racism.

But surely they are either both no big deal or both racism (which is in fact the case among normal human beings).

Please explain your confusion?

PS: We already know you think it's fine to call a British person a "limey" so there's no surprise at your hypocrisy here.

Only extremist racists say "death to Jews" unless you can show me a video of a "liberal" saying that, why should I believe your hysterical claims? Anyone saying such a vile slur cannot be liberal by definition. It was liberal minded people who bravely resisted fascism in the 1930s.

Of course there are Americans who say and advocate death to Jews, but they are definitely not liberals Lisa:

To any educated Jew that flag literally reads "Death to Jews" Lisa, you of all people should know that but I've never seen you bat an eyelid to these guys, you seem to be unconcerned about real neo-Nazis.

You've never once complained, never once expressed outrage or even disapproval, I find that very odd.

Why don't you write to Trump and ask for the Swastika flag to be outlawed in the US, banned as a hate crime? I'm fully in support of that. The pending US Antisemitism Awareness Act oddly does not mention Swastika flags or Nazi symbolism, so even if this act were passed the above people could still legally parade around with flags that mean "Death to Jews".

Why not write to your congressman and demand that Nazi glorification parades and Swastika flags be included in the bill? I mean who would resist except true neo-Nazis?

These people hate everything and everyone that you hate, but they also hate Jews Lisa, you really should think about all this.

Um, guy, that you didn't understand the concept is your shortcoming.
