Would you vote for someone like her?


53 y/o Valerie Smith, a white woman running for a seat on a local board in Long Island said she is ALLOWED to use the n-word to refer to blacks because she's a "pioneer" who moved into a predominately black neighborhood!!

She's running for a spot on the Southampton Village Board and apparently phoned police last year and used the n-word to refer to a group of black men LOITERING around her home..

She not only said it but was unapologetic to using it too as she REPEATEDLY said it in an interview.

She phoned police on August 2016 and said they the black teens were loitering around her home while drinking Hennessy and asked for a dispatcher to send police to her home and remove them

Valerie said she was ENTITLED to use the word because Eddie Murphy also used the word in his stand up shows and said "Now all of a sudden, i can't use it? Sorry, i live in a black neighborhood. I came here and didn't see colour"

She said the home she moved into was a rodent-infested dump and came into the area "colourblind" and said "When you are a pioneer, like i am, it's not easy. i'm the only white person who owns and lives on this street"

She recalled one night where she had trouble sleeping because of noise coming in front of her home and yelled "you (bleeping bleeping) and one of the men who was in his 30's walked up to her whom she referred to as a "boy" and told him "I know you're a good guy, but you don't behave like that..if you want to behave like that, you're going to be a (bleep)"

When asked if she was gonna drop out after this revelation, she said "That's why i'm running for trustee. This neighborhoods needs people like me"

Would you vote for someone like her? let's see if people would.

Valerie - Beggar

The word shouldn't be used at all if folk get that offended by just hearing it. Personally I think it all depends the context it's used as to if it's racist or not.

Go back to your safe space if you get offended by setting as stupid as bad style choices. Comparing a deeply racist term to that is about as idiotic and ignorant as I have seen.

I don't think socks with sandals can compare to how offensive the n-word is.

I mean we don't say the SWS-word for starters, and socks with sandals weren't connected to slavery.

Do you even understand what safe space is? People get offended by plenty of things all the time. Being so offended by a fucking word is just laughable.

That's a terrible argument. Not only does it fail to address any problem in a meaningful way, but it opens up the door to other forbidden speech. Not to mention that keeping it taboo is what gives the words its power.

So, why is being the only white person who lives there so hard if she doesn't see color? It's almost as if she were lying about not seeing color....

I should have been more specific, but that wasn't the part of your post I was objecting to. I was objecting to the notion that if somebody finds something offensive then people shouldn't use it, since it sets a dangerous standard.

Oh that's what I was elaborating on too. Still I agree with what you're saying. It's just a word at the end of the day.

Well, she can, but she's also entitled to deal with any of the consequences that comes with it. Unfortunately she doesn't seem to be mature or self aware enough to realize that said consequences apply to her, same as they would anyone else. If she gets decked, fired or sued its her own fault.

No but I dont need to.

generally they aint bothered

only media makes it seem bad

In fact you can connect with, especially black people from the ghetto on a deeper level using the word n---a (cant believe I'm even censoring this). But yeah its regular to banter back and forth and be like: n---a this, n---a that, you know what im saying my n---a ? Get into a popular rap song yall both can enjoy, they aint going to look at you funny for saying n---a.

So nah im not saying EVERY black person is fine with you saying n---a, but neither does every any group of people all approve any one thing, you can never please everyone.

there seems to be some confusion, yeah you dont walk up to random people and say "yo what up n---a".
I mean but that applies to alot of things, I dont walk up to random white people and say "what up cr---a".
Same basic principle, its a title of endearment, and yes I call people cr---a, amongst many other things im sure people would scoff at

Already specified earlier in the topic I dont walk up to random ass people and say yo what up my n---a. Is this really that foreign to you? People do it all the time, heck its transcended slang for a racial term. Non-black people do it all the time as well with other non-blacks even. I have greeted all my friends one time or another in this manner.
