Harrison remark, Intentional?

Which is stupid because "chink" isn't the disparaging term for a Korean. :lol: It's like calling a French guy a Kraut or an Irish guy a frog...
Yeah I fully admit to not being the dedicated connoisseur of racial slurs that you apparently are. Your knowledge of epithets and whom should be allowed to use them or be offended by them is unparalleled in the world of decent folk.

Well, I'd say the google spiders will be adding BP to the search results for "Racist Hillbilly" searches given the last couple pages content.

Actually, I think the true goal of "reappropriation" is to redefine these terms so that they are used in an empowering way, and not to remain exclusive to that particular group (see "queer", "hoosier", "redneck", "guido"). Racial exclusivity is what first gave those words their power, and to justify its reappropriation as tit-for-tat is simply childish -- which is of course how the "n-word" is currently used, by the immature and the hypocritical. IMO this is not a goal that is realistically attainable for the "n-word".
"Hoosier" falls in with this group how? I am not aware that it has ever been a derogatory word but one derived during the early settler days...
