Yup. Not the most mature thing in the world to stoop to their level, but cracker is no different than what he said.

lol, ok.

50 years ago upside down with a fork up your ass? WTF, is that a reference to lynching?

lol, ok.

How isn't it? I grew up in W. Philly, and being called cracker is the same thing as nigger. The same feelings are behind it.

Sure thing Chet.

Sure thing Chet.

So, you have nothing of value to add? Real shocker.

I know there is a massive double standard wrt racism in this culture. But I don't get that statement, or if it is a reference to lynching.

I can't get upset over him saying nigga though, as they were calling him cracker and white boy.

If you are seriously saying that calling someone a nigger and calling someone a cracker are equal then no, I have nothing to add. It's just that absurd.

If it was a reference to lynching, that's fucked up. I hope he just pwned himself by saying something stupid that made no sense for the whole world to see. But yeah, hate crime torture/ murders aren't so fun to joke about.

Why aren't they equal? I know white people do not have any negative repercussions of slavery like blacks do, but they are both insulting terms based on race.
