Answer 1

Those are bullies, they come in every color but they are also extremely ignorant. Their parents probably use that language in the home. Don't take offense, you know who you are, just hold you head up a keep stepping. BTW I'm Black:)

Answer 2

I dont know I had black friends in school. When they call you a cracker why do you care? Just say damn straight b***h and give them a fist. Take it as a compliment.

Eric your comment was stupid. You cant tell an indian to leave your country. Where the hell are you going to go? They were here first.

Its called history and Education. Might want to invest a few dollars into it before you open your pie whole and make a totally stupid and idiotic statement.

Answer 3

Cracker is a derogatory term applied to those of the caucasain race. It is a form of racism as sure as any unleased againt the dark-skinned races of the past. Your attackers are reacting out of a sterotyped collective belief that they no doubt inherited from their early childhood teachers

There is nothing to be gained by responding in kind. Just be a person of honesty and integrity and treat all people (regardless of race or skin color) fairly and equally.

Sooner or later (hopefully) your attackers will take responsibility for their own lives, stop hiding behind their perceived limitation and make their lives better.

In the meantime you will save alot of time and energy .

Answer 4

YES

you don't have the right to be insulted anymore than they do

tell them that is an ugly slur and you don't intend to be called by it

let them know that bad is bad and wrong is wrong and if you insulted the blacks with the N word, or called the Indians Red or the P word (depending on whether or not they are Native Americans or from India) or the S word they would be mad too

I am very sorry....

you don't deserve this

Answer 5

Cracker is slang and Plumber someone you call when the toilet is stopped up. Those Indian kids are they dot of feather kids? I like the melba toast with cinnamon and raisins

Answer 6

You need to tell your teacher or a guidance counselor to put a stop to this. No one should have to put up with name calling. If the teachers won't do anything, then ask your parents to call the principal. Most schools can't afford the lawsuit they'll likely to get, so they should put a stop to it. No sense in arguing with the kids or fighting back. That will just make it worse, as well as making you equally as guilty. Ignore them. Then inform the authorities in charge. That is what you do when you are a mature adult. It's the best thing to do when you are a kid. Good luck!

Answer 7

Interesting

Answer 8

That is a racist term used as a insult towards white people. Yes you should go crazy on them. The sad part is that no one will stop them.

After you beat a few of them, then they will stop calling you cracker.

Answer 9

First of all it's cracker, not craker. Think of a cracker as the white version of the "n" word.

Answer 10

YES, you should be offended. Just like THEY would be if you called them some kind of derogatory slang word....though they would probably be 1000 x's more offended. Calling you names based around your race is WRONG....even when it's a black or spanish person doing it. Tell someone of authority.
