The problem is not with the word N!gger but the unrelenting attitude of a lot of black people to let go of history.
I watched Superstars on BBC1 last night and Suzi (sit on my face) Perry was interviewing Derek Redmond on his performance is one round and his first comment was that he had done it for the "brotherhood" while putting his arms around to other black competitors.Bol!ox!! he did it for the money, but playing the race card will always seem like an easier option for people that can`t be bothered to integrate.
This is the sort of attitude that will forever keep races in this country and others divided and untrusting of one another.
If people want to be offended by words they will be. If they want to be a person instead of a colour then words such as n!gger will lose their power.

The film has been dubbed now and the dog is called "boy" instead so that the ethnics dont get offended!

They've edited the Dambusters dog's name!
This really pisses me off. It never ceases to amaze me the lengths people go to in the misguided quest for 'racial equality'.
For instance in many schools they are no longer allowed to call blackboards blackboards. The have to call them chalk boards! What the **** is that all about - they're black because they are black - no reference to any race or nation (and they're not made out of chalk - you don't call a note book a 'pen pad').
Now if they had been called '****** Boards' or 'Dirty Coon Displays' I could understand it.
Other name changes that **** me off;
Black Spots - Hazard Spots
Marathon - Snickers

I've noticed this too - there seems to be a ban on the word 'black' in schools!!!!
They now sing 'ba ba woolly sheep'![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
The things is: Young open mided child gets taught ba ba black sheep and thinks nothing of it. But when taught woolly sheep and mum causually say's, 'oh, we were taught ba ba black sheep when we were at school the young child becomes confused, asks why and what answer can mum give. Its all very sad if you ask me!
And do you know that a lot of school sports no longer have winning teams
What a lot of crap! Some athletes our kids will turn into. Pulling up 1m from the 100m sprint after 8.5s because they don't want to hurt the current record holders feeling or the guy who's coming last!! I hate PC'ness. I'm going to stop now........I feel a hyper-rant coming on

Another thing that these type of groups are singing, which I find intensely annoying is 'widja' instead of 'with you'

I thought ****** was a word that Black Americans use a lot and call it to themselves??
Why?

I was surprised to see a golliwog in a shop for sale though.Thought they were banned now.
Remember when Terry Wogan had to change the name of his Fan club from Wogans Old Geezers (WOG) to Terrys Old Geezers (TOG) so as not to upset the do-gooders. Crazy!
