    I felt this episode did alot of good , Im not sure if it matters but a friend of mine who is black just thought it was funny and when I asked him about just how he felt about it he just said that it wasnt that big of a deal , it actually was funny seeing all the situations and messed up "roleplaying" I believe that Tray Parker and Matt Stone can take things to far , but they know when not to , they created this episode very tastefully. Edit: Also , the South Park fans know how they think and such, problem is people like this reporter who probably never has seen the show before starts talking in a dramatic voice ( just like in the program about the fat 7 year old girl ) making it seem like Tray and Matt only is doing this to provoke others , although they do in some degree hehe.

    Abolish the N word. What a joke. Just as bad as saying "Black on black crime must stop". Ignorance is bliss once again.

    I thought the news report was actually pretty decent. Usually they just straight up bash South Park. But I agree that this last episode was done very well while covering a sensitive subject like that. Also this whole abolish the "N" word crap is, well just that, crap. I personally don't care for the words' use, but abolishing a word is just ridiculous not to mention unconstitutional. It goes against our right to freedom of speech.

    Seriously, whoever said it was not appropriate to say the N word, they are wrong. I thought it was so funny, I didnt think of it like racism or something. South Park Rules !!!!

    Hey, I know how it feels for a black person to be called "nigger". It feels like a white guy being told "are you gay?" "you're queer",or otherwise being called a fag - especially if you're not. We ALL have to put up with labels, like "bitch" "slut" "whore" "geek", "nerd", "redneck", "trailer trash", "preppie", "Jew boy", "jock sniffer", "airhead", "bum", "loser", "pervert", etc., etc. Blacks are sure not the only "victims of discrimination" around. One way around that is to speak out against bad or criminal behavior like Bill Cosby does, rather than make excuses for it (like "they're victims of poverty") like Jesse Jackson and his ilk do and the OJ Simpson worshippers did when he was on trial. Another is to develop a tough skin and quit being so defensive. Another is to quit wearing a chip on one's shoulder thinking that hating everyone and being dumb, criminal, and a general asshole is somehow cool.

What I object to is this "Abolish The N-Word" mentality. Terrorism, pure & simple.
