I’m diabetic. I’m not a racist nor does it cause me to say racist things.
What an idiot.

Weird that he seems to control the racism when he knows the mike is on. Oh my gosh exactly!! We were having a discussion last night about this type of “justification”! How people have been making up the most asinine excuses for terrible behavior, insults, racist rants, political rhetoric.... |

Now that I think about it-and this is just a guess-it seems more likely that “fucktard” is a play on “bastard.” That would make more sense, I think. That is exactly what I thought as well. You are so very lucky. When I used that word here on 2 peas Refupeas a little while back, I was vilified, set on fire, and practically hung over the use of the word (and I tried to explain then, even posting the meaning that I understood it to be (a stupid, moronic person) that never in my life had I though the meaning was related to a mentally handicapped person) yet the peas were not forgiving >< for me using it!! (And I haven’t used it since) |

Fucktard definitely comes from the "r" word. It is a contraction of fucking (r word). The word has been around for a very long time, unfortunately.
I appreciate malibou saying she didn't know and she is striking the word from her vocabulary. Everyone should.

I sure hope this jerk isn't driving. If his diabetes is so out of control that he can't control his racist thoughts and tongue, someone needs to point out all the ways he is a danger to others, including getting behind the wheel. Wonder what he'd say to that?
This story just made me sick. I hope some thing of consequence can be done to him.

I appreciate malibou saying she didn't know and she is striking the word from her vocabulary. Everyone should. I horrified that I used the word now that I know from whence it comes, but I admit, I am confused as to why it is connected to the "r" word and not bastard. Connecting it to the "r" word doesn't even make sense to me. Still not ever using it again. |

Makes total sense. We don't pronounce bastard with the emphasis on the second syllable.

Norman won the state championship in their division!
From their FB page:
“ Thank you Norman! Thank you Oklahoma! Thank you to those all around the country who have reached out in support!! We felt the love!
As we end the season with a perfect record (20-0), there is only one thing left to say:
Call us...STATE CHAMPS!!!
