Q. Is it right to go around in a circle naming all possible racial and religious slurs you know simply for fun or for lack of anything else to talk about.
Q. Is it worth standing up and putting your foot down when people use these terms liberally on a daily basis without consequence.
Q. Why do people choose to use these words in the first place?
Nobody is perfect; I will admit to have used racial and religious slurs at one time, never ever with conviction. However, I see it almost everyday coming from people who are smart enough to know where these terms originated and why they can be so hurtful to the people they are directed at. I realize that most of what is said is in good fun, and the people that may say those words would never do that in front of the people affected by it. Why do it at all, what does it gain you besides a really cheap laugh.
On a lighter note,
Merry Christmas Everyone!
