Rick Santorum Drops the "N Bomb"

[Deleted]

Nigger is just a word, it wasn't born as derogatory term, it acquired this meaning lately. I think that is the tone that makes a term vulgar or derogatory.

In the wrong setting, which is 99% of the time, it's very hurtful and derogatory.

Enjoy the B&/Infraction.

Yeah try to explain that to a black person and let me know how that turns out for you. The way things a taken are not always like a dictionary.

Who, besides lunatics, are pro war?

I'll take Republicans for $800, Alex.

Since I live in Texas and am completely surrounded by Republicans I can attest that I know absolutely no one personally who doesn't think we should be at war right now.

Of course the same people also think that we need to bring the troops home. You can't win with logic in this state.

every single race thread i've clicked on recently on these forums is the same OP.

seems like the OP's got deeper issues at hand than stumbling on words in a speech. just sayin'.

You're an, "OP" racist!

I know where you hail from! Good sir!

I know black people who address one another as "My nigger/niggah" all the time, so ironically you are stereotyping in your implication of racism.

As to the video, there's two things that have me convinced he almost let the word "nigger" slip:

1) The insane amount of verbal stumbling half-way through, which makes no sense if it was just an ordinary word.
2) The complete change of subject afterward.

I don't know how American accents are, maybe that is a contributing factor, but "Nig" was undeniably heard, and the lengths people go to in trying to say otherwise are interesting, to say the least.

Ron Paul is from your state and he is the only one who really wants to stop the wars. That has to count for something.

In America if a white person says the N word it is almost always taken in an offensive way even it if really isnt ment to be that way.

i am Canadian and have no biased towards any party or candidate if your dumb country.

you are seriously grasping at anything if you think he dropped an "N-Bomb" there I'm not sure where your from that the N word sounds like that but he most certainly did not say it or even come close.

you just don't like him as a candidate that's all there is to it.

He also believes the Earth is 6000 years old; never bad to take these things with a pinch of salt.

Look at the video I posted at the top of this page. Rick Santorum has said pretty racists things in the past.

Who in the world told you that peice of fiction? I would love to see some evidence of that.

Then the fault clearly lies in the interpreter when they consider the word fine if said by a black person, but racist if said by a white person.

I think this thread has run its course now, there's not much more to be discussed besides whether you think he said some word or not. Locking.
