I was called a ____ this morning by a ______ in the U.S. in 2007, for no reason

In one incident, he was getting a drink from one of the places in the food court, and I stood about 10 feet away from him and yelled, "you f*cking n*igger!!" He dropped his drink, walked over to me and yelled, "you cracka-ass honkey!" Now, we're both pretty big guys, he's built like a 6' 2" barrel, and I'm the same height, and was 215 at the time. We both stared each other down and got all in each others face, and everyone in the courtyard was dead quiet.

That sounds like a lot of fun. 😐 🤪

That would be great, I'm going to be the asian guy this time though.

not the subjectivity thing again. somebody being moved more by maniac magee says MUCH more about the person in question than it does about maniac magee.

And how does that pertain to the topic?\

Fact is, "n!gger" and "cracker" are the same, they are both words which are often used to insult/harm.

Another double standard example:

Black guy calls a white guy "white boy"; no one blinks an eye.

White guy calls a black guy "black boy"; people yell "Racist cracker!" "You racist piece of shit!" etc. etc. etc.

Sucks, doesn't it? To be called an insulting name. It pisses you off, doesn't it? But deciding all white people are responsible for this jerks actions isn't any different than what he did. However, it sounds to me like he had some mental issues. There are people like that everywhere, it's better to just feel sorry for them.

It's the worst feeling. Like a figurative stab in the heart, Capt. This white hot anger overcame me and, honestly, i felt inferior. The 2 mixed and caused me to think irrationally by idiotically seeing those bullseyes on other Whites. But more than feeling as bad as that, i can't stand being irrational. I dunno. Logic just somehow tastes way better to me.

why do you keep ignoring the receptive half of language? that's twice now.

i can't believe i'm playing this role, but...have you ever heard of "white privilege"? it's not a concept i really buy into, but there's a reason nobody would care if a black guy called a white guy "white boy". it's no less racist, but it is less meaningful.

sounds like you have some issues you need to work out yourself north.

I am not ignoring.

So you agree that words in themselves are just words or no?

If you don't really buy into it, why bring it up? It should be as it is; a non-issue.

Stay proud, brother.

I only wish I was that strong. I mean, i don't think i can ever be called a racist slur and react or respond happily or become flattered by it or just brush it off. And i'm not trying to sound like a sissy but i dunno, it hurts inside, too much, to just say just "and?" or "so what?" case that's not the case... It's not. With me it's more like "wtf why?"

I dunno. I just wanna be looked at as normal that's it cause it' what i am. I'm more than the skin color i am.

I think that is because Black people have been discriminated against far more severely than European and Hispanic minorites, even more than Gay people have been discriminated against.

If not, then I don't know.

I used to hate being Gay...i used to think it was like a disease, or like there was something wrong with it. I finally got over it when I saw that tons of Gay people are proud and live happily with who they are. I got jealous of those kind of Gay Guys who had that freedom, so I wanted to be more like them, rather than less like them.

I was always proud to be Hispanic and Italian, so those racial slurs never bothered me. If you look at the thread I made "Do I look Guido", you'd be surprised how many people said I do, and regarded it as some sort of negative thing, like it was something to make fun of.

Here in New York, being Hispanic or Italian is considered sexy, not something to be ashamed of. Yet on KMC, in the OTF apparently, looking Guido is a "no no" lol

It's all relative. Don't pay that old drunken fart anymind.... tell him to get his ****ing prostate checked or something

I have issues? Why, because i became angry for being called a n*gger?

I can't tell you that i am regular and sane guy. I don't know about you but I found it completely natural for me to become upset at that guy.

I have nothing to work out. He probably does though.

Yea, he's past me now. The pains now gone. Thanks to you and everyone else on this thread for hearing me out when you all didn't have to. I'll even praise the critics for making me see both sides.

But pathetically enough, I, at times, used to think that having non-white skin was a handicap. That I would never get anywhere cause of it but I got off that crap and ironically enough, and fortunately, i ended up proving myself wrong. I've been doing good so far, i guess. i mean, i'm getting ready to pick up my second business degree his May and i'm still in my 20's, with good credit and no kids, i'm healthy as hell, with a good tightly-knit Spanish family and a bright outlook on life.

That's pretty hopeful, i guess. Maybe i could dwell on the good whenever bad happens. It always makes me feel good when i think about how nice things may turn out in life whenever the skies are grey.
