There’s a whole country in Africa called “Niger”, and a river too.

Will MSNBC have Niger Innis on air for a comment?

Sadly, no. He's been sidelined with a bad case of nigeria.

“Made in China.”

So are you saying that this is a legitimate color in China? Are the Chinese racists?
(actually they are)

It’s such a glaring double standard.

Some black comedian called Obama “my nigger” at the White House correspondents dinner, and that was ok.

Paula Deen said nigger in some unclear context, and was driven out of public life.

Yet liberals see nothing untoward about such situations.

I see a law firm coming up with a class action lawsuit on behalf of every “offended” black person in the world.

There was a hip-hop store in Taiwan by the name of "N-word King".

When there, I made sure and pick up a supply of toothpaste. Worth some $'s on e-bay now...

This was popular in Taiwan. They renamed it to "Darlie" in 1990.

New York Times best-selling author Roxane Gay condemned the retail chain, tweeting that dropping the N-bomb on their site was “so far past unacceptable.”

Gee, no kidding. It was obviously an immature prank by someone working on Walmart's website - fix it, fire the doofus who did this and move on.

If you’ve ever listened to Mandarin speakers you’ll swear they’re dropping N-bombs all over the place. The most common measure syllable in Mandarin is “Ga”. The word for “this” is “Ja-Ga” The pre-fix for “that” is “Nih”.

So don’t be alarmed if a Mandarin speaker seems to be spouting racial epithets, they’re just talking about this and that.

And FYI I was at a meeting in Japan the day after Clinton’s first election. Our host asked us: “Prees to tell us about President Crinton’s ERECTION!” The “Kohee” was all over our side of the table needless to say.
