First off im gonna address the fact that yall love to name people that has nothing to do with the situation. Where is this acceptable at? Im not saying this just cause I was mentioned. Ive said this before when I had nothing to do with the situation at all. Who just name drops an unrelated person?
@Sion the culprit of this one. We cool bruh, I have 0 issues with you, but that shit aint cool.
Now ill adress me saying the N word. I grew in Paterson NJ, and it was cool for everyone to say it. People mentioned this before, its different up north. Not saying racism doesnt exist up there, cause it does, not saying the parents of these kids werent racist, im sure they were, but for us kids, shit was innocent, everyone was the same. There was no black, hispanic, middle eastern to us. Every clique was diverse as fuck, and because of Hip Hop culture, we all said the N word.
Shit wasnt even a second thought to me, and I must have said it a million times, and the first time I ever got called on it was the IC. Thats when I reevaluated and decided to try to stop. Not cause I wanted to post on a forum, but cause it was the first time I saw black people get offended, and offending people for no reason is not a part of my character.
When I moved to the South, it was more of a cuture shock, cause I saw people in person get offended, and again, im not the type to defend my offensive behavior, if people get offended by something I do, I try to stop. So when I moved down here, I tried even harder to stop.
The issue is its not easy to stop something you do without thinking. My best friend down here, someone I call my brother and vice versa is black. And hes not from up north and gets offended at non blacks saying the N word. When we became friends and got closer I let him know that the cooler we got the more freely Ill end up speaking and the more the N word will slip. Ever since it slipped out a bunch of times.
Im not here excusing myself. Because im not trying to offend people on or offline, ive been made it an effort to stop saying the N word. It still slips out sometimes. If yall aint cool with that im cool with a ban. I am who I am.
And btw, I never once claimed I was black, never pretended to black, always said I was middle eastern, and posted a pic.
