A QUEENSLAND judge has found the terms "nigger" and "sandnigger" are not offensive to a reasonable person.
Magistrate Michael O'Driscoll made the ruling yesterday when he dismissed a case against a Gold Coast retiree charged with sending an offensive facsimile to a local politician, reported the Gold Coast Bulletin.
Denis Mulheron, 62, sent the fax to the office of Queensland lawmaker Peta-Kaye Croft on June 30 last year.
It called on the Labor Party to tighten immigration laws against "niggers" and "sandnigger terrorists," and Muslim women with circumcised genitals.

WTF?
this judge should not be a judge
just joking, the story is silly
To any reasonable person, it is indeed just laughable.
He did that so he can say nigger without being arrested.
It's about time they got over it.
That source sure doesn't look reliable.
What news source would write that in their articles?
Besides, as far as I know, the term "nigger" is just slang for black right?
To be fair, it's been more than a hundred years that whole ordeal went on, besides, it's just a word. I mean, I don't use it infront of black people or arabs but those are just simple words. Whitey is offensive too, kinda.

And to think that we find circumcision socially acceptable.
Nigger isn't offensive when the people its directed at call each other it

Due to the way precedents work, it's now law in Qld that the N word and Sand-n word is not offensive.
And glad to see it's that way.
After all, we still got Coon cheese in Australia (and it's even run by an American company).

[release]The WHO defines Type I FGM as the partial or total removal of the clitoris (clitoridectomy) and/or the prepuce (clitoral hood); see Diagram 1B.[/release]

That isn't correct. It's just fucking not. Well, I sort of agree. It's only offensive in a certain context. There's a difference between saying "nigga you crazy" to a white guy and saying "Go away you dumb nigger" to a black guy.
They're just words, jesus christ. The only reason why they're still seen as offensive these days is because we choose to keep them known as "bad words".
[QUOTE=sonicrjk;23960063]huh[/QUOTE]
Yup it happens, can be removal of the lips or in some cases the clit, it can be sewn shut until their wedding day.
Only happens thanks to radicals and extremists anyway.

It's not really the words that's the problem, it's simply the context. Any sort of hateful speech is bad, but these words are only considered hateful and offensive because we choose to keep them that way.
It wasn't offensive 60 years ago but thanks to todays society that is filled with a bunch of over emotional morons of course it's offensive.
Suck on that TH89!

he was like "eww what the fuck" towards female circumcision, probably because of the queasy tendency of people when faced with a rather sharp object to undergo and alteration procedure on some very sensitive genitals, when 75% of american guys underwent the same procedure and not a second thought is given about it.
statistic pulled out of my tail.

No female genital mutilation (The actual term for it) is a serious problem in remote muslim areas, it's a procedure that leaves women generally unable to feel sensation during sex and the more extreme versions sew up everything except the part needed to urinate and menstruate from.
Finally. Pepole dont go to court because said that you are a dumb shit. It's words.Won't hurt ya.

You underestimate the power of words. Sometimes and insult can hurt you just as much as a punch to the face. Only your face will heal, and the insults stay.
