Jewely,
Interesting question, I doubt that they will.

As I understand it the word comes from the term Negroid but was abreviated and now has become an insult.
It's a bit like the word root the US says "root for your mate" is quite acceptable but the Ausie conotation is some what different.

To me I think it's a bit over kill but laws tend to be made to cover the lowest denominator. If the N word was acceptable then the more aggressive would misuse it in fact or by intention.
But the law is the law I can exist without the word and it doesn't fundementally change anybody's rights or sensitivities so what the heck.

British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith is the embodiment of the liberal, left wing loonie. She has no problems with imams in her own country calling for the overthrow of the government and the universal application of sharia law but bans people whose opinions might cause offence to people like her.

Her ilk, and there appear to be many, are leading the western world into an abyss.

I should probably have linked the original article to give context:

"Ginx, I suggested that you read all my posts to get the 'big picture' but you retorted with 'I don't need to do one damn thing'. Don't you want to have all the information at hand before making your judgement or is it just that your opinions are fixed in stone and don't anyone dare point you elsewhere? Talk about showing weakness!

If you could have actually read some of my past posts instead of being the little rebel that won't be told what to do, you would have seen that I have, on many occasions, posted opinions. But you wouldn't want to admit that, would you?

That doesn't show strength either. But I don't think that you'd get that.

There you go again! NOT ONCE have you posted on the topic of this thread squity. All you've done is harp on, and on,...and ON.

squity/.us........less/Jack the Lad. Three persona's and puffs of hot air! All mouth and no trousers.

You know the thing about being seen as a fool, then posting and proving it? (Think I got that right...!).

What's your opinion on free speech;-or are you going to stick to just demonstrating it?

Ginx, 'NOT ONCE have you posted on the topic of this thread squity'. Doesn't that make two of us? Or are you somehow absolved of behaving as you demand all others do? Do you actually realise that you are pulling me up for something that you do too? At least I admit that I only posted retorts to a poster whose style I disagreed with. What's your excuse?

As can be seen, I did try to reason with you over the last couple of posts but you can't/won't allow yourself to understand this. Obviously, it's a waste of time trying to get through to you as you are either being awkward, thick, obtuse or any combination of those traits. What was that about 'being seen as a fool, then posting and proving it'? 'All you've done is harp on, and on,...and ON.' - sound familiar?
I rest my case. Over to you, sweetiepie.

Examinator, the 'n' word, as the PC types like to call it, comes from the Latin 'niger' meaning 'black'. Hence Nigeria, the Niger River etc. I don't see what the fuss is about the word as blacks use it amongst themselves freely. Apparently, it offends them much less than the thought police of the 'Newspeak Brigade'.

"To me I think it's a bit over kill but laws tend to be made to cover the lowest denominator. If the N word was acceptable then the more aggressive would misuse it in fact or by intention.

What is with that picture add thing and the pop out scary face?

But if we edit out these words we change history. Make Nazi war movies where the Jewish are treated with dignity and respect and not called any bad names?

I foster children, I write reports about their time in my hosuehold. Recently I attempted to send reports with a sibling group going in to Long Term Care in what NSW calls a Life Story Book. I was told to edit out incidents where it was mentioned a child was scared or upset.

Doesn't the Freedom of Speech also imply to be honest no matter how hard it is to read/hear?
