Originally posted by Unix View PostI wasn't personally offended by Clarkson's racist rhyme, and I hear the word used in stand up comedy which is fine if its part of the routine, but the fact he is willing to use such words while filming is unacceptable. Again, all the posters sticking up for him, let's see you go into your client office and drop the n-word in a conversation, if you think its ok in a workplace to use it. I thought not.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

So you think that not using the word shows you are up your own backside? What a complete cretin.
In any case, the word is an English and American epithet dating from the slave trade and wouldn't obviously have the same impact in Germany/Switzerland.Hard Brexit now!
