"sorry you feel that way, but i offer no apologies for truth"

truth is not posting that you heard the joke, only with the word nigger inserted. are you familiar with the concept of an unarticulated thought? well, if you are, then you just missed a marvelous opportunity to have one.

should everyone start telling every racist joke they ever heard in their lifetime, so as to not "help hide the ugly", as you put it?

"history buried is history ripe for repeat"

quite the contrary, the history of using racial slurs needs to be buried, not dug up and repeated, in the interest of truth.

we all know about those words. do you actually think anyone has forgotten them and requires your offensive message to remind them?

"there are groups today denying the holocaust"

you wrap yourself in a cloak of decency when you should be acknowledging the error you made.
