Many see it as simply outdated, but many also see it as the only acceptable way to now say the N word in public. Also, I have very racist family members who are constantly given a pass because, "they are old". I dont believe old dogs cant learn new tricks.It sucks that Lackey is being made an example of here. I believe her intentions and understand the context. Though, Clint Eastwood movies for the last decade or longer are about him going around being un-politically correct. It's either seen as funny or old school common sense because he is too old to know better or has ripened wisdom. Nobody checks that behavior they just allow it like old people are some unstoppable force. Politicians too say this with nary a finger wag because being 60 is too hard to learn new things. Its not, and I think its time folks started being more serious about this.</blockquote>
