re: Dear Slate: My Black Son Sold “N-Word Passes” to His White Friends

How come the response auto assumes the passes were for use of the “a” version? If I am going to spend good money for a “n” pass it better be the legit “er” version. I don’t want no made in China counterfeit “a” version that I can get for free just for playing a pick up basketball game at a public park or from listening to a hip hop song. I think that kid is a damn thief if he was selling those and not the real deal.
