part of my negotiation would be you can't say cracker, even if your talking about the food stuff. I'm not offended by the word cracker, and I don't have a reason to use racial identifying words. I use dude unless im being racist. Then I use the real racial slur cus I dont give a ****. Usually while driving. I think racial slurs should only be used to describe individuals who are setting back their respective group back. If only to remind them that they are perpetuating a stereotype. Otherwise hasty generalization are frowned upon.
