Wth the recent Imus situation it is clear that freedom of speech has limitations for white folks. Can anyone give me a list of unacceptable words please?
I know I can't say N#ppy and H#, but what else.
Ooops I just said N#ppy and H#e....hang on someone is at my door........oh it's just the irreverent Sharpton and Hvmietown Jackson protesting.
Seriously though...what words can I not say as a white man and are there any words that a black man can't say?
I had to change the spelling on a few words because yahoo censored this the first time. I doubt this question even sees the light of day either.

You are free to disrespect anyone you want anytime you want. You can say it and you know it's wrong to do it. But it sounds like you want to stir the pot here, so go ahead. Show us how low you'll stoop to prove what we can tell in the first sentence of your bigoted, racially charged, stupid question. Honky inbreeder.

Every time a problem arises from something a white person or persons say something that might be offensive here comes al sharpton and Jesse Jackson....yes they again made a mountain out of a mole-hill.,. Yes Imus wasn't perfect but neither are any of us as were only human.,.,. i hear 10yr olds at the school bus stop talking about Ho's and pimps daily and no that not in the hood' that in the suburbs,.,. lol

I can't give you an answer, but I am curious about the answers you get.
I hear so many "words and terms" used on the radio, and they are now commonplace. Now as a mom to 2 very white kids, when they come home and say certain words, (some I know, others I don't) what should my response be???
When you are trying to teach your kids to not see people as just a color, how do you tell them it's O.K. for certain people to say that, without using the race card????

The issue is money. You are free to say whatever you want. Rappers can use racially loaded obscenities in their music because their market consists of young people who want to hear that filth.
Now, Don Imus has a large audience who also enjoys hearing him spew filth, but the problem is that his sponsors all pulled out. There is no money for Don. He may continue to say whatever he wants as a free citizen, but where will the cash come from?

They do? honestly i might've in no way commonly used because i regularly see a woman of ANY coloration asking if we expect of that white adult adult males are interested in her race/ethnic team. i'm relationship a white guy on the 2nd and my selection of adult adult males is whites, asians and latinos. it is to not say i will knock down the possibility of being with a black guy yet for the main section im not interested in them. I nonetheless cope with them with the honour they deserve even with the undeniable fact that, like i might with all of us.

You got it! It's eggshells for the white folks ever since they got equal rights back in the day. As you have seen, whites are kept at a higher standard than blacks when it comes to speaking about the issues. Blacks can make those ridiculous rap songs and speak in the most derogitory way about THEIR OWN KIND, and that's O.K. for Americas children to list to! This country has gone to hell because of it too. Next thing you know we won't be able to say spicks, guineas, polack, kraut, mate. The hell with the politically correct.

Say whatever you want. Its a free country, just be prepared to backup your statements if you chose to not be PC. Hey, and if you get a trouble, just enlist the help pf Donald Trump ;) Hey, if the "Reverends" can have their say, so can he .... hahaha, and yes he would win.

Well, you can't say nappy headed ho. We know that now.
I'm not sure you can say Rutgers, either. They're pretty thin skinned over there.
Matter of fact, just avoid saying anything that sounds darker then blanched almonds, and don't mention a thing that's on the dollar menu.
