Vote: Is Calling Someone "Fredo" In a Forum Post An Ethic Slur?

[John Iacoletti]

No.

There are Italians all over Twitter saying it's not a slur, so I'll do what you suggest and take their word for it. You guys really have trouble distinguishing slurs from insults.

I'm sure there are black people who aren't offended by the n-word too.  That doesn't make it not a slur.

    Way too many Parrots running around. Cuomo/CNN says "Fredo" is a racial slur, so the Magpies then pick it up and make it part of their Lock-Step Doctrine. Not only Dumb, but Weak.

BTW, what prompted this thread? Was someone with an Italian sounding screen name called "Fredo" or something?

   I keep waiting for Gov Cuomo to give Fredo Cuomo a wet smacker right on the lips!

   Nowhere above does it say in order to cast a Vote on this issue, the voter MUST be Italian. Likewise, having an opinion on the issue. You Snowflakes are Whacked outta your minds.

Dr. Culty McSnowflake exuding Pure HATE for the Italians, especially the Dirty Dem Fredos. "Democrat Derangement Syndrome", alive and sick.
