Assuming no one ever called him that either to his face or behind his back, have you ever heard anyone exclude Marion Barry while talking about n*gg*rs in general?
He was middle class and got a chemistry degree.
Does any of that mean he was not justified in involved in the Civil Rights movement?
He mainly was a race-card, race-baiting fool.
I don't deny he went bad, I'm just not going to pass judgment on him for it. Someone else will handle that now.
And if that someone can forgive the Christians who called them n*gg*rs and shoved them to the back of the bus, that someone can also forgive Barry.
You go ahead and forgive him. He was a horrible person. Whatever he did, he did for himself. As far as I’m concerned he’s one of the reason black people are in the position they are today. He never helped anyone except himself, and he did a terrible job of that.
I don’t care who called him what. I’m sure he called and treated people much worse.
God may forgive, I don’t.
The difference between me and God, is that God forgives.
