In reality, not the PC world that has been forced upon us, that I see losing it's grip slowly, what she said was not bad.Now I barely know about Dr Laura, just heard of her a few times until this issue came up.The word is all about context.
I recall a classic lecture in one of my law classes my sophomore year in college.The Professor was fed up with students saying "The N Word" instead of using the entire N word.Prof went on to give a lecture about context and actually recited infamous monologue from Pulp Fiction as an example of context since he was quoting.Then he went on to say now if you are using that word to insult someone or a group of people, that is entirely different.A couple students complained but nothing came of it because he was right and luckily the admin at my college realized this.
I heard the recording of Dr Laura and she was right on, she was not calling anyone "that word". This PC crap is censorship and most americans are sick of it, looking forward to it going away, although it will take a while.
