Ban the "N" word?

Why is CUNT banned, but not the N word?

Banning is lame, and I highly doubt it is going to happen. It seems such freedom helps contribute to GFY, and if us White guys can handle being called crackers every now and than (a few members here use that term freely) the word ****** should be able to get by. It's called freedom, you can NOT ban every word that might offend someon - deal with it.

you may think it doesn't mean much... but I've witnessed racism first hand. It does indeed cause damage.

It was at internext in fact. It's an event that plays out in my head all the time. "Why didn't I say anything? WHY??"

The power a few words had over another person was disgusting. They're just words, but the damage they did....

Why didn't I say anything then? The guilt I feel is starting to wear me down. My work load, and this event are getting to me.

So what, I have had Islander's call me racial names too, and they even jumped me afterwards. Sure the punches might hurt, but the words sure as don't. They are fucking words, and if people can not deal with them for the sake of freedom than they need to grow up.

on a forum like this there is no point banning words. Other words will be used instead.

Ban the 'N' word when you ban 'guido, kike, retard, whore, fag, spic, wop, chink, jap, etc etc'.

not to sound like Lil2Rich here but blacks don't deserve special treatment, in fact it hurts them, it just perpetuates their view of themselves as the victim while other visible minorities leapfrog them up the ladder of prosperity.

it's ok to call a homosexual a faggot but a hush falls over the room when someone says ******.

ridiculous.

I think it's a bad idea to ban words. This is an adult forum. I'm very big on freedom of speech. Speech allows to better see the mentality of the people you deal with. When you start banning words and people aren't free to say what they want, how they want, then it only hides what they are, good or bad.

For example. At the office I used to work at one of the guys that I worked with seemed like a pretty good guy. We'd joke around a lot. After about a month or two, my wife at the time and him and his wife all went out to dinner. It was the first time I ever hung out with him outside of the office. It seemed about every other word that came out of his mouth was either, ******, Jew, Jap, wetback or some other racial term. It was disturbing. The hate he had for everything and the hate had for every other race was amazing. After about 15 minutes at the dinner table I had to ask him WTF was wrong with him and when did he become a racist. He looked at me kinda confused like, and said, "What? I've always hated ******s. I just can't say that at the office or I'd get fired." I told him to enjoy the dinner and left him and his wife there.

The point is that certain words you really couldn't say at the office. He seemed like a normal guy. If his write to speak his mind wasn't limited by the banned words at the office I would have saved a lot time in getting to know him. Ya, start banning words here than you're not really solving a problem, you're just avoiding them. I'd much rather know what people are thinking when they're free to speak their mind, even if it is to just see how stupid they are.

All that being said, if we're gonna ban a word, than it might as well be marsupials. That shit is just offensive.

Your points are valid.
I think it was just bothering me as well, because I've know both parties for a long time. But I didn't realize how much of a racist one was until this incident. So yes, I see your points.

I guess then what I'm getting at is why ban them? Why ban one word that has no meaning to me what-so-ever, and leave a word that is listed as one of the most vulgar and most hateful, and deragatory of all words in the english language? It doesn't make any sense.

If you're going to ban words include the "n" word other wise lift all bans on words...

Hi Red,

I agree if you're gonna ban one word than you might as ban the other. But that's just the point. Where does it stop? And didn't someone already use the word hahahaha and it accepted it? (I guess we?ll find out when I hit submit?) I do think both words are offensive though. I also think that pedo poster we have here is way more offensive and the board owner doesn't seem to have a problem allowing him to post. So why he/they would ban words I have no idea.

I think the pedo you are referring to knows how to dos attack the board and will do it if they get pissed off enough. It's 2 people I think. Smokey and sexeducation. They know all the board exploits and will use them if Lens bans them. He's totally afraid of those 2 guys.

If anything should be banned it should be the racial slurs vs. the typical swear words. Either you ban all swear words or you ban none. Either you ban all racial words or you ban none. Anything less would be discriminating.

The word cunt is allowed on the BBC so banning it on GFY is kind of strange. The word ****** is a bad word for sure, but what if some black people here would like to use it they should be able to, and if others want to reveal their ignorance by using it in a racist way that is very good. Helps me keeping track of who to avoid

no and I'll tell you why ..because if you allow it to be used I get to know who the racist idiots are and I can avoid them.

don't ban words...that makes it alot harder to differentiate the ignorant assholes from the rest of us.

Like it or hate it words don't fade away that easy, but they do evolve, change meaning through time. We are experiencing such slow process; rap and hiphop play important role on this.

I think it was just bothering me as well, because I've know both parties for a long time. But I didn't realize how much of a racist one was until this incident. So yes, I see your points.

I guess then what I'm getting at is why ban them? Why ban one word that has no meaning to me what-so-ever, and leave a word that is listed as one of the most vulgar and most hateful, and deragatory of all words in the english language? It doesn't make any sense.

If you're going to ban words include the "n" word other wise lift all bans on words...
You said it happened at Internext, was it said in jest ? Or one of the parties try and pass it off as a dry sense of humour ? banning is Not a good thing, first its words, then its books .............

Spell ****** with an "a" instead of an "e" and it's funny. At least it was on the Chappelle Show.
