Duh. WWBD*

*What would Browback** do?

**Actually, Brownback's pretty reasonable on this sort of thing. At least, before he realized that running for the Republican Pres nomination meant that you have to start hating brown people.

So if I understand this thread correctly, Asher and Ramo are all about executing people who say "noose?"

And ten bucks I hear about this IN THE SITUATION ROOM this week.

**Averti$ingGuru** · 11-21-2007, 03:13 PM

Why isn't noose auto-sensored?

**AricGoffgog** · 11-21-2007, 03:21 PM

Just replace all "n" with "x"!

**mireOpekrhype** · 11-21-2007, 03:34 PM

Is there 1 second in the day that Cali doesn't think about black people?

**Faumpiggueria** · 11-21-2007, 03:44 PM

2 things could have happened here. One, the black kid took it the wrong way. Two, the white students were using the term in a racists way.

I think Kid was making the mundane observation that the word was either used racist, or it wasn't.

In other words, it was a +1.

**anfuckinggs** · 11-21-2007, 04:53 PM

Cali! Where did you find this?

**Junrlaeh** · 11-21-2007, 05:04 PM

When my 2 year old son says "juice" it sounds like "noose"! Oh, the humanity!

**lakraboob** · 11-21-2007, 05:25 PM

I really dont get this....

Poeple should get their priorities straight and start buying my screens god damnit!

NOOSE NOOSE NOOSE!! Its a freaking knot! Get over yourselves people.

Spec.

MikeH raises an excellent point.

Years ago, I had a tiny noose with a rubber skeleton in it in my dorm room. It was left over from Halloween. At the time, I didn't see anything remotely controvercial about it, and, AFAIK, neither did my black roommate. I've thought about that a lot in the wake of the recent usage of the noose as a tool of intimidation. I wish I was still in touch with my roommate so I could ask him about it. Maybe he thought I was a racist, when, in reality, I was just competely ignorant.
Can someone explain me this?

How did the word noose became racist the past 2 years
