MLK wanted badly for both whites and blacks to move away from the animosity that was built over a word. When people still use it as a common slang you are defeating that purpose. You are hanging on to a negative that really has nothing to do with anyone alive today.

The original word was a derogatory word used to display the unequalness between slaves, and their owners. The slaves then embraced the word as their own, but for us to come together as a country, we have to move past such terms.

It seriously is blowing my mind that while Donte Stallworth killed a guy, Leonard Little killed a guy, yet they were barely blips on the radars as far as being public enemy number one, yet a word, a VERY STUPID ACT BY A DRUNK STUPID IDIOT, has incited this much of a controversy.....Unbelievable......This is getting more backlash, than the George Zimmerman trial, or that woman who got off in Florida.

Exactly. You nailed it. HOWEVER, if you want an answer to your question, you should ask "Reverand" AL Sharpton. He's been known to come up with some real doozies...Every time I listen to the guy I just say WTF and laugh.

I love how Darren Sharper said he couldn't be on the team with the guy. Really? So, you mean to tell me he was on teams that never used derogatory language towards anyone?? Riiiighhhttt....

I love how high and mighty these people (in media and NFL) who are offended are. If you are offended by that kind of language from boys in the locker room, then you are in the wrong profession.

I also love how the Eagles are going to send him to 'pray the racist away" camp. Sensitivity training???

. So are they doing that for every player who says '****er" or 'Cracker" or "bundle of sticks". Every player in the league would be 'Sensitivity training".

Those players need to realize they **** up and say stupid racist, bigoted shit too, just like he did, and to give him some slack.

Darren Sharper was on the Internet minding his own business- looking up Christian sites and then BAM- he comes onto this video with the N word?

Or did he hear about it and just Knowing that the N word was used - was so Offended he just can't take it? He has Never used that word or Ever heard it before? All his friends, team mates and nobody he knows has never said it?

I feel better knowing the Darren Sharpton's in this world are here to protect us-lol

I can't wait until Obama steps in and files Federal Charges for violating the security guards Civil Rights. Maybe 20 years in Leavenworth having his mouth washed out with soap will do Coop some good.
