The worst offense is the damage she's doing to her child.

RE: Thug violence.
The original definition of the "T" word was to discribe a murderer. This woman isn't a murderer.

See dictionary.
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/thug
Thug : a violent criminal
Also you are incorrect on the origin:
Origin of THUG
Hindi & Urdu ṭhag, literally, thief
First Known Use: 1810
Since you are confused on the word, here are some synonyms to help you out:
bully, gangbanger, gangsta, gangster, goon, gorilla, hood, hooligan, mobster, mug, plug-ugly, punk, roughneck, rowdy, ruffian, hoodlum, tough, toughie

RE: Thug violence.
No organized cult of killers has ever murdered as many people as the Thuggee. In the 1830s this Indian secret society strangled upward of 30,000 native people and travelers as a sacrifice to their goddess Kali, the "Dark Mother," the Hindu Triple Goddess of creation, preservation, and destruction. The name Thuggee comes from the Sanskrit sthaga, "deceiver."

Original definition...from when 17th century Englund.
You are such a putz. The original definition of a marriage was "the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law"
How's that for an original definition?

Only 'thug' hasn't evolved to mean 'black person'. It hasn't been, it isn't, nor will it likely be a racist word.

Try and keep up.
I have been saying that if people are going to claim that the word derives from it's original definintion ( which is totally bogus) then bec consistant and use it in reference to murderers and not just common criminals.

So you are declaring we can't use a word as it is defined in EVERY DICTIONARY IN THE KNOWN WORLD, but must stop using it because of handful of self-loathing, guilt-ridden liberals say it now is a racist term?
Find something better to do with your time.

I won't stop using it. And I do not apply it only to a Black Criminal because any Race can have Thugs. It is what it is.

You're saying it just to be annoying.
These are two lists of racial slurs. Thug isn't found on either.

RE: Thug violence.
I used to have a friend that was in prison. He called all black people "rugs". Now we all know what a racial slur is. Are you actually going to sit there and say what he was saying and what he meant when he would say that wasn't a racial slur?
Of course not.
The point is that any word can be a racial slur if used a certain way. It's the intent behind the word that makes it such.
It's used as a racial slur on these threads alot.

It's used to describe violent criminals in every instance I have seen on this board. You are the only one insisting on it being used as a racial slur which implies those using the word thug are racists. Stop calling everybody racists.
