    No. Because the N word was used against slaves, and often the last thing a black person would hear before being murdered.

    Ever follow the history of the circus..? My grandfather was a silversmith for Barnum and Bailey Circus from the 1920s until his death in 1962....had a lot of small coworkers....their story will make you think twice about brushing off their dignity

    That word was acceptable for centuries as was midget.....we've moved on...at least some of us but I think you view it as a conspiracy from less conservative viewpoints if I'm not mistaken

    I think we don't need to walk on egg shells to avoid a ridiculous perceived slight.

    I'll say this...we were without power most of the week, I'm in the middle of a back to back shift and they just got power back....try caring for a paralyzed man for 12 hours through the night...no water, no power, little heat....let's say I had a rough night and am a bit snarky today...for that I apologize

    Uhm, no. Bloomberg is, per Forbes, the 6th richest person in the US. $45B.

    Trump is #156.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    One of the truly nicest guys in this forum. Seriously, Riverman "likes" more posts on here than anyone. Never insults anyone, is a jerk to anyone. The one time he asks for someone not to say something, that it's offensive to him, and he's the one who ends up apologizing for it?!?

    Fucking hell that is funny and sad at the same time.

    I would like to proclaim that there is such thing as a midget and they love doing porn. Ben Shapiro worked side jobs at corporate offices in midget tossing. They tip well

    River is a great guy! I fully agree, But let me check your logic Sly.
    Is calling a runt a midget, really that offensive?
    Worse lets say, than calling my President and Asshole before he has shit on anyone officially?

    Apology was for being snarky....just couldn't come up with a sense of humor today however Marz and I both know Nixon was an asshole.....so Marz...we've now both called presidents assholes.....mine is a longer list...I'm not backing off how I feel about Trump....he did something I liked and I clapped...he's done hundreds of things I don't like and I'm not star struck by his treasure chest.
