>we have to call them something other than angry humans, they >might get even more violent if we say nigger, let's replace it >accordingly : Uh no. N-word is an entirely different word with an entirely different collection of meanings that have nothing to do with whether a person is breaking shit, stealing shit, attacking ppl, burning shit. That's behavior is thuggery if any race does it.
>you feeling black folks have to be labeled negatively for >fucking shit up (especially given our historic treatment) is >sort of troubling : I don't feel *blacks* *have to* be labeled. I feel its disingenuous to accuse people of meaning the n-word if they call a violent shop-raiding, resource-burning mob of people thugs.
>that bit about these "thugs" being human is contradicted by >your need to label them "accurately" : I don't NEED to, and that is demonstrze by the fact that I haven't. I'm making a point in here in defense of others who do choose to call them thugs. And there is no contradiction for people who can read the words I typed and not read shit I to it.
>I dont even want to know what you think the right response to >Freddie Gray's murder should have been, I fear you'll >reference MLK Jr. : You agent paying attention then.
