Man I find it so sad that people are letting a word get people so riled up. I agree that it shouldn’t be used due to the way it has been used. However there is no excuses for watching people get so angry over it. Damn, lol none of ya’ll have any self control and I think that’s the saddest part of this thread.

Self-control in what aspect? This a discussion forum. People obviously have opinions…and nobody is being angry in voicing those opinions. Maybe you should have some self-control with your ill-based judgments before telling us how we lack self-control.

Hrrm. So you’re telling me no one is getting upset over this. Right. Hell the last 2 pages were nothing but insulting people.
Also, that comment was directed to the people that were acting like a fool. So if that didn’t apply to you (which clearly you said it didn’t) then, there was no reason for you to respond to my post.
I thank you for taking the time to give me your opinion.

Well…I do admit to smashing my keyboard to my forehead because I was soo fucking angry…ARRGGH!!! Really,dude…if people are that angry,it isn’t apparent.
And when you say “none of ya’ll have any self control…” it kind of assumes that you’re addressing everybody. Just saying.
[quote]While technically the correct meaning of the word,trying to claim that particular usage in S.A. would be laughable and no one would believe you if you said that’s what you meant.Because in the local context,you would be talking shit.
So while wigger may be descriptive to some,if you don’t understand that it’s offensive and basically a watered down pejorative,You may need to re-asses your understanding of communication. [/quote]
Does the word Saffir offend you?
OP, you have understand that starting a thread entitled “Homeless Wiggers” is going to cause controversy.
Putting the homeless part aside for a second, you’re left with " fubu, wife beater and du rag".

People get offended when they want to get offended. People like being offended nowadays - especially white people. White people even like getting offended on behalf of non-whites.

Spetznaz’s troll powers are improving. Look at what he started with a single post, only needed to give 2 more to keep the debate going yet in those 2 posts he also completely removed himself from blame. Genius.
Edit: Actually, I think ‘urban’ might work, without all the baggage. Though it doesn’t relate the race of the ‘urban’ person. One would have to know beforehand. Like, “Paul acts so…you know…well…urban.”
Still the queztion goes unanswered. Why then do black people even use the word to describe each other? Does it not send a message of acceptablity when it is used among that very group of people?

My guess is the same reason Peckerwood used as a term for white guys in jail became a term picked up and made their own, almost a source of pride.
I would assume that to some extent its the same as you can fuck with your family and say whatever you want but if someone outside the family does it it’s a problem.
I mean I’m not sure. I find the term offensive in any case.

LOL. You’re black…OF COURSE YOU’RE ANGRY!!!
These people are hilarious…especially those who comment on how “thugs” act yet ignoring the OP apparently held long conversations with those white homeless people he saw to determine their personality?
Get fucking serious. He looked at white people wearing what he THOUGHT was stereotypically black and called them “wiggers” for it. Anyone who can’t see the problem there isn’t too bright.
Ya dude, I guess I’m cursed. It seems like I’m the Midas of forum arguments, anything I touch lately turns into 'STFU NOOB, YOU DONT DESERVE TO USE AAS AND DON’T KNOW HOW TO SQUAT…AND R RACIST!"

Actually, I think it was the du rag.
I’m not going to get into this racial crap, but I have to say, anyone that dresses hip-hop/ghetto looks like a douche. Wearing big baggy clothes, a huge shirt, usually with some retarded design or picture of Tony Montana, and a big dumb chain and a big hat tilted to the side, well that just makes you look like an immature tool. Everyone is free to have their own style, but when I see grown men dressed like this and talking like a dyslexic rapper, well I can’t help but laugh.
And it’s all just style, race has nothing to do with it.
