What are we supposed to call people like that dead kid who strong-armed a tiny, elderly business owner for cigars? You tell us, what term is acceptable to you?
"Thug" is codeword for the n-word now? |

CNN prominently showing a protestor's sign calling for the cop to be jailed for life. Gawd, if this were a black cop and a white protesting crowd it would be called a lynch mob.... More cars streaming into Ferguson. This is going down racial lines. I think it gets ugly.

There's been a flurry of facebook meme's with variations on this theme. I'm wondering if many don't even realize how offensive this is? |

Your reading comprehension stinks. And yes I think in many cases it is a code word.

Paul, not every derogatory word, when aimed at someone who happens to be black, is racist. Sorry. |
