There's not one or two races in a ghetto - I've been in some myself, so, let's not abuse the "R" word. "Crazy sht" is not swearing, not even profanity; it's just weak speech and a cliche that needs to be eradicated - the whole "sht" thing stinks, literally.
- smt88 12y agoA ghetto is, by definition, mostly populated by minority races. It might be several minorities, but it must be minorities. You say you love English, so you should be particularly sensitive to using a word as it's defined. What you said was racist, whether you intended it to be or not. Look up the definition and use the word "ghetto" correctly in the future. Using a very loaded word incorrectly is far weaker than saying "crazy shit". Speaking of crazy shit: if it's neither swearing nor profanity, why won't you spell it correctly in your quotes? Anyway, your argument here isn't intellectual unless you have some functionally equivalent suggestion to replace "crazy shit" with. And, like I said, profanity has additional emotional content, so you can't replace it with anything that isn't profane without losing some meaning.

Regarding the spelling, I used the OP's spelling to stress out. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_California https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_California
