Yee Haw.... bring it on!

No pension for him in 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - 0.

He could have called Obama a dipshit fucktard klingon cocksucker errand boy for the POTB, and no one would have batted an eye.

Using the N word, gonna get him lynched, tarred and feathered by the media.

Stupid, and unnecessary.

Why do blacks call other blacks, n*gger and get away with it?

(I honestly don't know)

I think it's along the same lines as "I talk about my family that way....you cannot."

It gives them the power of the word.

As for the OP. The guy sounds like a racist, and should probably be penalized accordingly.

Say what you want about Copeland but apparently backing down from his statement isn't going to happen.

This statement ...."For this, I do not apologize — he meets and exceeds my criteria for such." ...is pretty much him flipping all of them the finger.

He's 82 years old, which is old enough to be a Vet from WWII. A man from his era stands on his word and his convictions. You have to admire him for that.

Try as they might the Thought/Speech Police can't make everyone conform.

Rick,
They don't. Ya gotta understand ubonics. They don't end in *ER, they use *A which makes it alright.
DISCLAIMER: I still would never try this...................

Yup for some reason they can place the race card and it's ok but when we play it we are racists!

you can't be racist against your own race.. it's the unwritten rule... it's about context and intent..

if the intent is to belittle or demean, it's racist.. if it's to say hi, then it's not...

an asian calling another dude a ricer is no big deal since we all eat rice 3x a day.. if a white dude pulls that stunt, he's just being racist.. unless that white dude is part of your crew and eats rice just as much as you do, then it's just a term...

so the n word within the black community is an acceptable term... but it is used differently.. and intended differently...

This...plus - he is the POTUS, where is the respect for the office? When GWB was in town, conservatives were furious and claimed treason when they criticized GWB or called him an idiot or something. Now...all I see is "Obammy" and other garbage like this.

I give you the genius of George Carlin

I'm not sticking up for Mr Copeland and not to be picking the fly shit out of the pepper buuttttt.....

First, yes you may have seen the hackles up over the degrading of GWB as being stupid ...ill give you that, but I missed the call for treason charges for anyone that called him stupid.

Second, Ill give the potus seat respect but the man only gets respect when respect is given or shown in return. As far as I've seen in the past 5 and a half years the man has used his seat, one that I respect, to trample on my Constitution. Don't get me started on the lack of respect he has shown our fighting men and women.

Third, I tend to use different spelling of the heads of state like Fiendstein so as to try and keep off the I-net radar when and if the gvt powers ,that are growing daily, find the need to do a search on the I-net to see who and what was said about these heads of state. If you don't think that would and could happen ill direct you to the latest IRS scandal where T-Party people came under scrutiny just because of party affiliation. Key words on that search were in the storys text;

http://billmoyers.com/2013/09/30/the-ir ... E2%80%99t/

"Trying to cut corners and red tape, the Cincinnati office decided to determine which groups were legit and which were covers for political mischief by implementing a keyword search – targeting words like “patriot” and “tea party.” All hell broke loose."

Maybe I'm a bit paranoid but I'm ok with that......

No you don't. Not when his word and convictions make him a bigot.

...and it doesn't matter how old he is or what era he's from.

it's a black thing. you wouldn't understand. just like when black people call white people crackers. the only people who can call me a cracker is my fellow white person. it's a white thing. they wouldn't understand.

Threads like these make me ashamed that I'm black.

*Puts on flame-proof suit

Rant on: Using a word and refering to one person as such does not make someone a racist. A racist has a bigoted opinion that applies to all because of their race. If the descriptor is applicable and not applied globally to a race, It cannot be defined as racism.

For example: All blacks are n*ggers = racist. You, sir, are a n*gger = not racist

Discrimination is part of every choice, it is not a dirty word. You discriminate against fruity pebbles when you choose to eat rasin bran for breakfast instead.
