As a Black woman, I can say I don't think you are overreacting AT ALL! I have to say I cringe and get pissed off when I hear ANY slur whether it be directed toward, Whites, Blacks, Arabs, Gays, Jews, Hispanics, Asians, what have you. And I do not allow them to be said in my home
So the double standard doesn't work with me!

Thank you, im glad im not the only one that sees this issue. You can people go on TV all day saying "cracker" "honkey" "white trash" etc etc...and nobody sees it really as a problem, but if one derogitory term is used towards a minority then its the end of the world (I'm actually white and im a minority in my community, so yes whites are minorites too now).
Now if a white person was to make a big deal about being called a cracker, people would think of him as overreacting, correct?
Double standard and reverse racism....
