@ Pyro,
I'm shocked, that you use the word "niger". I hope you meant the country.!!!!
Believe it or not Kikapu, I was in Germany the other day and the German manager was trying to force me adopt some safety measures that stupid EU has now forced in our job and you know what the German manager said when I said it's a waste of money?
"you are in Europe now, the life of child worths a thousand times than the cost. You are not in Africa where you could say "well one niger more one niger less, it doesn't matter"
There is racism everywhere my friend, and yes I believe the German manager used the word niger in a racist way.
However I used it just to describe a black person.
I believe that you did not mean in in a racist way, but sounded terrible all the same.
I believe Germans and South Africans can say the word "nigger" and feel comfortable with it, but I expect more from you.
Even the word "negro" is not acceptable by most.
Of course, American blacks just prefer to be called "blacks".
The days of the word "coloured" is also over.
