No, If the roles were reversed Jesse and Al and CNN and Fox would be running the story 24/7. This would go down in civil rights history!

As far as a kid being a kid, he's an adult, by age and law. He knew what he was saying just too stupid to realize that the mic that he just finished speaking on was,....still on!

Do they use that word in other countries?

Of course not. It's another one of the wonderful inventions of America.

So I don't get your original point. Of course it would only be in America... because they don't say it anywhere else.

So you've never heard the phrase " only in America"?

It means that things here are different than anywhere else.

Slavery ring a bell?

Considering there has been various forms of slavery in most every corner of the world throughout history - I can't imagine what this is referring to. Are you actually trying to infer that slavery only occurred in the United States? Really?

If the roles were reverse and he said F that cracka or honkey, I doubt anyone would have done more than chuckle.

This. Is there a double standard - yep, not everything in life is fair. Live with it. It's not a word I ever use anyway. I also don't make a habit of calling females b!tches, whores, or sluts, so there's that.

You may be asking yourself: Why isn’t MSNBC and the lib media going ballistic with wall-to-wall 24/7 coverage of this latest racist comment?

Because it wasn’t this guy calling his opponent a “n*****”:

Quote:Press conferences after losses in crucial games are full of emotion on full display in front of millions of people hanging onto every word.

For UK’s Andrew Harrison, his lesson in not-what-to-say-in-front-of-a-hot-mike was aired to the entire world.

After UK’s loss to Wisconsin on Saturday, Harrison let slip a derogatory term about Wisconsin’s Frank Kaminsky. He was asked about the big man and subsequently let slip a pair of expletives that were caught on mike. Within minutes, the video went viral and sent him scrambling to issue an apology.

“First I want to apologize for my poor choice of words used in jest towards a player I respect and know,” Harrison tweeted. “When I realized how this could be perceived I immediately called big Frank to apologize and let him know I didn’t mean any disrespect. We had a good conversation and I wished him good luck in the championship game Monday.”

No disciplinary action has been taken against Harrison and will not be until UK has had a chance to evaluate it.

Yeah that's right, boy... Stop it with the slurs and apologize.

I'm not advocating for anyone to use the N word in any way shape or form. It doesn't have the same connotation however when it is said by a black man.

Slavery was not unique to America but the kind of slavery where your race determines slavery status was unique to America for centuries.

He actually did realize he screwed up and got in touch with Kaminsky and apologized. Did something very stupid - came out and apologized.

It's the same word. It's the same ugly, unacceptable word no matter who says it. Why can't whites and blacks be equal, fit? Why do you hate equality?

...the Jews in Egypt would beg to differ on your 2nd point, Fit.

Jewish is not a race. It's a religion.
