We got trouble right here in
River City.London, Ontario.
First of all, a London City
councilwoman, councilman, councillor, councilperson,said “nigger” at a council meeting!”
That’s right folks, Coun. Sandy White got up at a meeting and said “nigger!”
(After all kids, this is not Kindergarten, or even high school, this is the real world, and she didn’t say the N-word….., she also didn’t say ni**er, or n*gger, or n****r. No, she said nigger!)
Now here comes the stupid part, and let’s call a spade a spade! (No pun intended!) Everyone was so flabbergasted, and astonished, and befuddled, that the article describing the situation didn’t really come out and say WHY she said it, or how she said it!
Only that she said the “N-word!”
(………………………… After a bunch of reading-between-the-lines, and a bunch of by-guess and by-golly, your much maligned reporter finally figured out that she was talking about:)
Now this poor woman in in the news from one side of the country to the other!
Not because she got her underwear in a knot over a degrading ad, no sir!
Just because she said nigger, instead of the N-word!
---------------------------------------------------
We got a lot of comments on this one kids......................, this was the best one!

White had recently resigned from the Ontario city’s
Transit Commission over what she considered sexually suggestive bus ads
involving musician Katy Perry and was under attack from fellow
councillors, according to QMI. White argued that the ads were degrading
to women. “When someone on the commission said to me, ‘Sandy, the
children like it.’ I went, ‘I’m done.’ That’s enough. They like drugs,
they like alcohol, they like a lot of things, and do we put that on the
side of a bus? But if I would’ve used words like n*****? Oh, then it
would have made sense,” she said. (You can hear the audio here).

She’s clearly not trying to use it in a derogatory manner, she seems to be trying to make a connection between the women’s rights movement and the civil rights movement, but I don’t think she did a very good job of verbalizing that. It may be the root of why people think it is uncalled for as the sentence seems to be out of place within the argument.
