This post reminds me of the infamous Chris Rock routine: [VIDEO] "I take care of my kids! I ain't never been to jail!"

That line of reasoning the mother used isn't uncommon. I can date it back to at least '96 and know that line of reasoning existed well before then. [0] [0] [VIDEO]

Sargon claims he is using the word in the way described in this stand up comedy routine where Chris Rock (a black person) talks about the difference between 'Black people and niggers' [VIDEO] Sargon said something like he was denigrating the 'alt right / nazi trolls' for behaving the way the 'nazis' claim the people they hate behave in.
