and I’m advised that in Florida, “cracker” refers to original colonial-era English and American pioneer settlers of what is now the U.S. state of Florida, and their descendants. So that’s not accurate either.

I guess the public schools need to spend more time teaching racial hatred and bigotry so these sign-makers can get their references correct /sarc

I laugh when they spout "cracker" which is not at all a slur. They can't seem to paint anything that will stick.

I think that is because we "crackers" lend no power to the word.

Blacks call each other ni$$er all the time, but when they do it it has no power.

For some reason when a White uses the word, it take on an entirely different meaning.
