You might be a racist if the following racist term is part of your vocabulary:

“…go out there and get you an old N_gg_r shooter (slang for slingshot) and take care of it and put it in the pot.”


OAKLAND, OK — Some citizens in Oakland, Oklahoma are distancing themselves from their town mayor and even calling for her resignation. An audio recording of a July council meeting captured Margarette Redwine, the mayor of Oakland, using a racial epithet.

The meeting took place July 7th, when the town’s board of trustees began discussing a problem with chickens. That’s when Mayor Redwine spoke up and voiced her solution to the problem, and suggested a slingshot could be used, except she did not use the word slingshot. What she did say was a phrase that many people find horribly offensive.

“…go out there and get you an old N_gg_r shooter (slang for slingshot) and take care of it and put it in the pot.”

When asked if she was a racist, Redwine replied, No I am not, No I am not. I have several black people married into my family and I am not.
