Slavery is indeed over, and so is legal segregation, but the ideology and thoughts behind that word haven’t gone away—it’s still an indicator that white trash like yourself...think that black lives are inferior and worthless.

Blacks have tried to mitigate the horrid history of this putrid word that has caused so much misery, by reclaiming it...so as to minimize its damage.

But like I said, I don't expect you, of all people...to even have close to the intelligence to understand.

I read two separate accounts from two different psychiatrist who specialized in trans gender issues. In both cases they cautioned against sex change operations stating that in most cases the patient regretted their decisions . why? because the issue was a confused mental state and that is where the treatment needed to be. Is a person who is confused by his/her sex any different than a person who is confused as to whether he is Napoleon of God ? Shouldn't the objective be to walk them through and out of this confusion?

I am not upset with mental health patient I am upset with people in our society who acquiesce to such stupidty in the legitimate and needed treatment these people require.
