of terms or words that are offensive to blacks, wouldn't it help racial relationships more so than being the police after something is said? Whould they do it knowing that they would then pretty much be out of a job?

Words are very big to ultra-sensitive PC thought police....
Do those people make you want to barf or what?

Their first priority should be to get blacks to stop referreing to themsleves as the "N" word. To me that does more harm than good.
At the risk of having my comment violated I say this. How can a race that degrades itself by calling each other the "N" word (I know not all do, but enough do) reasonably expect anyone else to respect them.
If you notice when people from other races greet each other they don't use derogotory terms. Have you ever seen two white people greet each other by saying how's it going cracker/ or what's up honkey, I haven't.
Not to digress too much, but even when they refer to themselves as "dogs" isn't that degrading too?
A dog, a friendly obdient creature that is loyal to its master (obidient and master, think about that).

What's next?
Ban the entire language because someone chose to interpret a word or phrase negatively?
I suppose they would then be tasked with coming up with a list of offensive sign language, huh?

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. Yea, interesting pair of "preachers." They pretty much can say anything, anytime, and to anyone without fear of reprisal of any sort. But if you just happen to be born a despicable white man, you'd better watch what you say and how you say it, our else. Yea, free speech for Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson but for us white guys, forget it.

Sharpton and Jackson would never create, let alone publicize such a list.
Think about it. Without their requisite over-reaction to stuff like Kramer and Imus...would they EVER have time in front of a camera ?

Even if this list was made, people would still say these things. I'm trying to defend either of these men, they both annoy me. But a list of what's "offensive" isn't going to stop anyone. Most people know what they shouldn't say, whether they're racist or not.

Yes. I also think white people should make a list of terms that are offending to them racial wise. Every race should. Not just one.

First of all, who put them in charge of all black people? Is that their job? What is their job title, "Spokesholes of Black America?" Secondly, how can anyone, black, white, red, yellow, whatever race or religion you are, take these two idiots seriously?! This whole thing makes me sick, and I'm not even an Imus fan. This country has some serious issues to deal with. Damn, this really annoys the hell out of me!!

You pretty weel answered your own question I believe. They love their job and make alot of money by creating controversy. Jesse and Al are no longer necessary in our society, howoever they keep trying to make the illusion that they are, so they can milk all the money they can out of it.

Sharpton and Jackson are "medea dogs"... they want to be recognized as the "answer to everyones" problems... just put your seat belt on and enjoy the ride...
