I don't really care about Dog the bounty hunter, one way or another.
Whats interesting is in the power of a word.
As long as people keep reacting to the 'N-Word' as if it was the most deadly of all insults, it will continue to be one, and it will continue to be used as one.
Really its quite pathetic. No word has that sort of power over me, there is nothing you can call me which will have me out rioting or demanding someone get fired. The words have no power as I do not allow them to have power.
Perhaps this is a motivation for using nigger (gasp I didn't say the n-word) in hip hop or casual conversation. Maybe its unconscious, but its a way to stop the word from having to much power.
Nigger to Colored to Black to African American to ?
Its time for people to just say 'yea and?' rather then taking offense at the word itself. To do so implies inferiority, which is the whole point of those who use it maliciously.
