The word "negro" isn't offensive in any way. It's no different than calling someone "Black" or "African American."

The problem isn't the word, though - its the double standard. Imagine if someone like Trump had said something like 'Tiger Woods is a great negro - that's why I gave him the medal of freedom.'

The country would have a spaz attack.

I don't think people would have a problem with that. If they did, they are being disingenuous.

you mean other than the fact it was clearly him stuttering because he was saying "the great negro league pitcher Satchel Paige"?

As compared to, for example, meaning to say "the great black civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King" and instead saying "negro" in place of black.

This confirms that you are literally not even living in the same timeline as us.

Having had the far left set the example, its hard for you to expect me to be any better.

You live and die by the sword, pal.
