Using the "H" word

Done't you think it says something about the meaning of a word when you feel it is OK to use it plainly here instead of:

N$#%ga
F*&k
S@#t
B!@#h

Excellent point.

The fact that you feel comfortable typing "honky", but have to resort to "the N word" tells you that these two expressions are not the same.

Again, an excellent point...but, didn't JRut "feel" comfortable typing the full "N" word out? Maybe that's what I am getting at. He might not be offended if a fellow brother said that to him...but let a cracker like me say it...whew, watch out!

I just can't agree that you can put normal profanity in the same general area as racial comments.

I totally agree with you JR on that statement (as I usually do on most topics)...I guess I'm just struggling with whether or not certain words, said to the same race, are racial and therefore require me to issue a T or disqualify a player for taunting and/or unsportsmanlike conduct.
