    Because whites have and continue to oppress people of color. It's not as visible as it used to be, but it's still there. And blood continues to run in the streets. So no, you can't f---ing use the N word you absolute joke of a human being. There's one word in the English language you aren't supposed to say out of RESPECT and you can't even handle that? Pure ignorance at it's finest. If whites had been enslaved by black people for a good plus hundred years, how would you feel if we as a society had decided that blacks cant use the word cracker, and somebody starts whining about double standards? I get that you dislike the use of the word, but it is nowhere close to the same thing as a white person saying a racial slur, Light A or Hard R. one contains over a hundred years of injustice and hate,the other is, yes, a term of endearment, however your still not supposed to say it. It's about respect. And yes it's completely different when someone says cracker because it holds nowhere near the same weight.

    So Sandra Bland deserved to die after being pulled over randomly? What about Eric Garner for displaying his rights as an American? Criminals or not, hundreds of people shouldn't be dying a year at the hands of the police nor should thousands of Americans be thrown in jail for years for small offenses like drug possession.

    no wait. cops in general have been s---, lately. they use extreme force when it isn't needed, you don't think they're just a bit power hungry? I say lately cus of how easy it is to film them and see what's going on..

    The history is still there. There is no history behind cracker. It's a word somebody came up with as a joke, not something to dehumanize and humiliate an entire race.

    Things change. People evolve. I think it's safe to assume that by the year 2100, most people will have gotten over that.

    @Final pretty much ended this argument on page one.

    You can make up any word you want and say it's a racial slur, but at the end of the day it's going to be meaningless because there's no historical or social context behind it...especially when it's used against people who already have a leg up in society.

    Yeah some cops are s-----y but to all races.. the only film that blows up is against black people when you can easily find a cop being just as bad to a white person. People watching too much tv.

    THATS NOT THE f---ing POINT. GOOD GOD. It's about standing up for a group of people who have been oppressed. Of course all lives matter but by using that hash tag, people are diluting and essentially mocking a just cause. Ignorance. Your on a f---ing HIP HOP forum, how is all of this s--- news to you?

    he didnt end the argument.. he just gave his opinion. if a black man goes and kills a white person while calling him a cac then will it matter? the point is the intention is to be hateful and stereotype and disrespect that persons race and its wrong. weather there is history behind it or not.

    Not to forget, the video's that blow up on the internet that only show what the cop does/did, not what happened before/the other one did.

    I think I get it now. #NormsLivesMatter just as much as #PlusLivesMatter when used with a hashtag

    I get what your saying.

    But on the other hand, colored people don't help their cause by race baiting white people all the time either. A lot of them try to seperate a line between the 2 races and talk about white people as if they were different and not apart of them. When most white people who aren't racist don't even bring up race or or place people in a different category. But this kind of mentality towards white people probably stems from years and years ago.

    Anyway, gotta get back to work.

    Why?

    "All Lives Matter" is just what it implies

    Police Brutality should end for everybody
