Not a racial term. Stop it.

Cracker. I prefer Stoned Wheat Thins, thanks.

Anytime a new word is derived that points the finger mostly at African Americans, it will become the new "N" word and thus the new racial slur. It's the world we live in.

The definition of thug hasn't changed. If you riot and throw rocks at cops, it doesn't matter what race you are, you are a thug.

 

[Parrothead]

I've already seen it called "The T-word" by a columnist idiots

 

[John Bender]

You aren't supposed to use the word thug anymore. They prefer to be called midgets

CNN.com's main headline in big letters is "THE T WORD". Stupid. That's why I started this thread.

 

[TheIronSheik]

Can we stop calling them "rioters", please? Everyone knows when you say that word, you actually mean the n-word.

Not a racial term. Stop it.

Origin

Thugs, an organized gang of professional assassins.

The Thugs travelled in groups across India for six hundred years.[1] Although the Thugs traced their origin to seven Muslim tribes, Hindus appear to have been associated with them at an early period. They were first mentioned in Ẓiyā-ud-Dīn Baranī's History of Fīrūz Shāh dated around 1356.[2] In the 1830s they were targeted for eradication by William Bentinck, Governor-General of India, and his chief captain William Henry Sleeman. The Thuggies were seemingly destroyed by this effort.[1][3]

The Thugs would join travelers and gain their confidence. This would allow them to then surprise and strangle their victims by pulling a handkerchief or noose tight around their necks. They would then rob their victims of valuables and bury their bodies.

I totally forgot the Muslims and Hindus were a race. Nice call.

Oh, I wasn't trying to say that it was a racial term. Just giving some background.

You Muslims are a touchy bunch.

[fantasycurse42]

Thought the correct term was "marginalized youth"?

 

[B-Deep]

I am certain it is used by some and considered by some as a code word for the N word, but certainly not by all in either case

I've always used it pretty uniformly for meatheaded idiots of any race

 

[Super King]

I thought the new n-word was "savage".

 

[Hang 10]

MARGINALIZED YOUTH LIFE :westcoast:

"Under appreciated housing area"

 

[Brony]

Tryin' out Tailor Mades like Cigarette Fiends!
And braggin' all about
How they're gonna cover up a tell-tale breath with Sen-Sen.

What word will those thugs steal from us next?

 

[timschochet]

I really like the word hooligan. It makes me think of angry Brits with bowler hats.

Fabulous.

 

[GoFishTN]

Definitely the most important issue in this situation.

 

[tdoss]

Don't ever say anything negative about anyone black...lest you be deemed racist.

Meanwhile you see black kids tossing trash cans at white people at the start of this Baltimore riot. Why? Cause they're white.

Everyone can just straight kiss my @zz.

If you embrace thuggish attitudes and do thuggish things...then you're getting called a thug...deal with it.

Thanks for the perspective, Cézanne.

I would have a witty comeback if:

A. I was witty.

B. I knew what the hell this meant.

Et tu Brute?

 

[Gary Coal Man]

Need an "I'm offended!" ruling here...

As an Irish-American am I supposed to offended that the news pundits keep saying that Freddie Gray was thrown in a Paddy Wagon?

 

[squistion]

I really like the word hooligan. It makes me think of angry Brits with bowler hats.

Hooligan is a black British person.

Sorry. An African-American British person.

I don't know what the preferred term is there, but Blacks in the UK never call themselves "American".

So you're speaking for African American British people now?

 

[psychobillies]

I'm pretty sure journalists are getting together trying to figure out how to make adults censor themselves like children, then just laughing at us. This country is really getting stupid. Bunch of dip "S words".

No, because by definition, there are none to speak for.
