Not young folks you would’ve used the word “nigga.” That is so much nicer, isn’t it?

Negro and colored were considered the proper terms to use when I was a kid, back then that is what the Blacks wanted to be called; and Bundy is I think a little older than I am. I won’t say he is racist for using that term, he has likely not paid a lot of attention to changing terms.

No; he comes across as a free man. He is speaking his mind and does not really care to make it pleasing to others.

Blacks have suffered greatly in America — first from slavery, then from discrimination, and now from a paternalistic welfare state that alternately coddles and criminalizes them. It is shameful.

A lot of people.

Regardless, the war over perceptions was just T-boned by a torpedo. Less will condemn than peel away quietly. Mr. Bundy is not a public relations expert, but he just poisoned the jury and allowed the Old New Left to make the issue of federal lands held in Nevada, Alaska and in the west generally "about race."

Logic has little to do with that perception, but wait and see what little time it takes for some Juan Williams or his wannabes to try to bend the argument around to "race," or "white privilege." All they then have to do is waste the air-time devoted to the BLM issue defending that sophistry.

Disastrous.

When I’m arguing race on liberal sites, I’m very carefull to call them negroes. It drives the progressives nuts.

But I make it clear that I also call whites “caucasian”. So they can whine all they want. I’m just trying to be precise. “negro” is not and never was used as a derogatory term. It is a technical label, nothing more.

Yep. He also got wildly off point and stepped in it.
He should have kept his statements confined to his personal situation and not generally held forth on how he sees the world.

Certainly he has a right to hold forth, but it blew up in his face.

Of COURSE he does!

And Phil came 'across' as a HOMOphobe; too.
