“Honky” offends me; “cracker” is kind of another term for “redneck,” and it does not offend me to the same degree.

You’d best not call me a “racist!” Or a “honky!”

Those are fighting words.

White “N” words?

That's funny. Honky doesn't bother me in the least. It's like calling me something that doesn't mean anything. At least "cracker" is semi derogatory. Either one I don't care about though. To me its not the word that offends, it's the intent. They can call me "mister" and if it's said with hateful intent, then I'll get pissed.

The same goes for the "nigger" word. It's all about intent. Words are nothing.

I probably got that attitude from being a Correctional Officer. Lots of words get slung behind bars.
