Reading is fundamental, people.

No we can read, we just disagree with you.

If you have a problem with people singing along to ANY type of lyrics, then you need to take it up with the artists who put such hypocrisy out there in their lyrics. In my opinion, listening to a song with the n word in it is no different than using the n word in the context of the song. |

It's not appropriate for anyone, least of all white people who don't have enough sense to stop themselves and skip the word when it comes up. It's
like me skipping the curse words in a song when I sing around my mother.

Who expected praise? JJB is so messed up.

Was she singing along with the song or did she just randomly break into song? Were there clients or customers in the area?

I was taught very early on that it was a vile word and I continue to think so. But this thread is an example of how it's been given too much power. I agree that everyone should stop using the word, then it would die a natural death. |

I get how you feel but it seemed like you were talking to a child rather than a co-worker
"now, so and so, did you say the "n" word?" "Well, you can never say it again, hear me young lady!? bad, bad girl! I mean you can tell someone how you feel but you can't MAKE a grown person do anything lol Not to say I don't agree. I think ALL people need to stop using it, including rappers. It's a useless word that only stirs up pointless controversy like this. Too many 'gray' areas, it just needs to be cut out completely.

Why is everyone criticizing how she said it to her? This is sooooo besides the point. Dayum, people can't come to JJB before someone is fucking going off
topic so they can make jabs at them. So stupid
