I heard that cracker is slang for whip cracker making fun of the whole white man slavery thing. HAHAHA if that is true I'd say thanks for the compliment.
Anyone know the true history behind the whole cracka thing?

Yes I am angered because it is reverse prejudice at its finest. It is simply a part of the PC Speak people's attempts to confine the current White race and punish them for the sins of the past. Michael Richards exercised his freedom of speech using language readily found on most rap albums yet he was forced to renege his freedom of speech because a certain group was offended. Had it been Chris Rock calling the guy a honky or cracker nothing would have been done; even if the anger had been as palpable
If this is a modis operendi, then we need to investigate how much of the reparations are required to be deleted because of the number of Slaves sold by warring factions in Africa during the times of the slave trade from the 1400's forward.

Cracker doesn't offend me. Honky either. First of all (disclaimer) I think we should do away with slang ethnicity terms altogether. They only demonstrate ignorance and immaturity. Having said that, I think white people got the best end of the deal. People keep trying, but no slang term for white can compare to the offensive qualities of the other ones.

No i'm white and I don't care. But if someone calls me that then I'm not cool if they spas out if i say something back to them thats racist. I don't really know the history of how it came to be but obviously it has something to do with crackers being white.

Being politically wonderful is thoroughly ignoring historic previous. specific a lot of people from Africa are white and communicate english, because of the fact the english conquered many providences throughout the time of their superb rein of the seas lower back interior the day. Political correctness is greater worried approximately race than background.
