A teacher claims he is "trained to insult" ??
WTF ???
NO wonder you guys are so screwed up about education !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At least "upon reflection" he realised it was "not good".
Sorry, he should have been trained a helluva lot better than THAT.

The losers IMHO are those who think it's OK to use and repeat the word that SO MANY find offensive.

Anyone know what else he was suspended for ?
Maybe bringing a gun to school and shooting someone ? After all others did THAT too once

I don't get it...what's the big deal. I mean, even at my school, all the people swear and say whatever they want and it has no impact. That's because everyone accepted the words and I don't get this thing with "swear" words...one day, gay means happy, the next, a homosexual.

In Romanian, the colour black is called "negru" and that's the colour black...now does that mean I shoud get suspended or whatever for speaking in my language?

My point is that people take "swearing" way too seriously.

You have to put it into context Wolf ...

But that's the thing...I'm not a gypsy...

My point was about the so-called offensive words....the definition of the n-word is an "offensive" term used to call black people...this is not about calling someone something they're not.

Plus...if a teacher would call someone a gypsy...I really doubt they'd get suspended and get as much attention as this teacher. The thing is...gypsy is not an offensive word...it's a word describing a select group of people living in Romania...The fact that gypsies steal, cheat and make Romania look bad, is a whole nother idea.

And the "N" word has a history of a totally different meaning and why it has been raised as objectionable by many.

So you are NOT a Gypsy, what if you were getting called it.
( BTW this is a common problem in teh UK and Gypsies over here are treated abysmally )
I had a Romanian friend and colleague.
To himn beign labeledd Gypsy/Romany was a major offense - that was why I asked ( maybe it's not so much for current generations )

it's a word describing a select group of people living in Romania...The fact that gypsies steal, cheat and make Romania look bad, is a whole nother idea.

and that's the point I was making.
You would feel happy being called a thief every day in school and work ?
BTW, having also had this conversation with PROPER Romany-stock then I have to also defend the Gypsy as not all are thieves !!!!!

Imagine the worst racial insult you have experienced. Now imagine that in a classroom. That was the point being made. "N" may mean little to you or me. Perhaps you are too young to have experienced racism, I dont' know.

PS Coucesu and his supporters are what made ROmania look bad !!!!!

[my porsche]

ok well heres what i think

the guy's an idiot, there are some things you just dont say, even though its seemingly totally acceptable for blacks and hispanics to go around calling eachother niggers, and us Honkeys and crackers, you just cant say the N word


i dont know why, it seems like either it should be accepted or NO ONE should say it, but you dont see whites going around calling each other honkeys and crackers why should it be any different for blacks

[d-quik]

well its cuz in north america black people DID get cracked by white people, so it isn't really the same

Great generalization there, because one teacher does it the whole Education system of America is screwed up. I'm so glad that just because one American did it we all must be further stereotyped.

i dont say nigga. its disrespectfull. saying niga is like talking don to a black person. a black person can say nigger whenever he wants but no one else cann call him niggerr.

Its like talking about mothers. I can say " my mom is good looking", but if u say "your mom is hot" you better start running ...

Aren't you the one who advocates dealing with spammers and trouble-makers on the forums by giving back to them what they deal the rest of us?
