Legit complaint?

whats the difference between racist and racist gesture? black slavery wasnt based on racism, white people didnt go damn i hate those black people im going to make them slaves. black people sold their own into slavery and the white man benefited from it. again not saying it was right merely saying that it wasnt a racially driven act. black people initially not having equal rights after being freed THAT was racism.

i also said from the beginning that it was inappropriate but what we have been debating is was it racist or not? note: its not like it was a racist gesture meaning i would understand the need for more punishment if an authority figure was essentially promoting or showing racism.

do I again have to quote where you did ask "... and youre not getting racism there?"

leaving it up to parents to teach their children anything is almost a waste of energy because while there are plenty of good parents out there that would try to educate their children there are several parents who do not teach their children anything. parents who havent even taught their children respect.

so where you may be a great and attentive parent who will teach your child plenty, you arent the majority. also it is good for children to get more than one perspective on things.

"Well son, I really can't tell you. There's a period of time where that word was used that I don't want you to know about"

This actually is true and you make a valid point
