re: #345 HappyWarrior

How do you talk to someone who thinks words are just words? Someone who I honestly don’t think is a bigot but is quite insensitive to the fact that words do have meaning and can hurt people?

I had to get in the car and go for a drive to mull over your question. I would do what my parents did, teach by example. He wont get it today, or tomorrow, or next week, but at some point in his life, he will get it. There is far too much name calling today. Don’t “call him out” it would harden and embolden him.
