even if it's illegal the "paper" who reported it didn't break any laws unless they were the ones who did the recording.

What I don't get is that when a white person uses the n-word to refer to another human, they're racist. When a black person uses it to refer to another human, they're 'hip'. What's the deal? I removed that word from my vocabulary because there are others that seem to fit the purpose when I get pissed off. I bet Dog wishes he had too. I really don't see any difference between his calling her a 'nigger' and if he'd called her a slut. Somebunny's just making a capitol offense out of a stubbed toe.

Nigger is just a word.

words DO have power

that power comes from the one hearing the word

NOT the one saying it
