[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the kind of thing that gives me pause about sending my kids to a school like Whitman. Yes, the academics are good by public school standards, but then you have a huge lack of diversity to contend with. If the school's make-up was more like BCC the N word wouldn't be getting thrown around like that because there would be a fear of peer-to-peer repercussions. Which is much more impactful than adults slapping them on the wrist. [/quote]

Have you been at places around BCC at lunchtime? There is plenty of the N word from all races. And I’m sure a other more diverse schools in the area too. [/quote]

Black kids using it among each other is a completely different scenario than two white kids ganging up on a black kid and saying it. I'm sure I don't need to break that down for you? [/quote]

Really? So, the word should be banned at school only if uttered by certain students?  Got it.[/quote]

I love how (I'm guessing mostly white) people are suddenly so stupid they can't understand what a racial slur is or how it works.

[b]"But if a black kid says it to another black kid it should be treated in exactly the same way as a white kid saying it to a black kid because it's exactly the same!!" [/b]

Seriously...? This is why Kaepernick feels the need to take a knee. Wake up. [/quote]

Yes.  Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.  This 1000 Times.

If you so vehemently disagree, please explain to us why it is perfectly OK for black children to use this racial slur. Go ahead. We're all waiting.[/quote]

For the same reason Trump supporters gleefully call themselves "deplorables". You take away the power of the word when you use it as your own, but with a different spin.  [/quote]
