Even black people call them that. Well, at least black people I know.. And I am not sure if every black person I know calls them that, but i've been around a white and a black having a casual conversation and the white says "over there by them ____________" and then later on the black says "he said they were right over there by those _____________" and it was completely normal.

Im convinced that more white people are involved in getting shite removed because its "racist" than black people.

Very true, every word. It doesn't change the fact that one group can organize and another can't based on race, which is racist.

Couldn't agree more with your statement though.

Did they move it to the BLM headquarters so they could rename the rock?

The people’s fricking head would explode if they actually had to endure some real, true racism from time to time.

Good. On my college tours, that rock whispered "This is MAGA Country" as I walked by



I’m gonna miss that old rock. We really took it for granite

What are they gonna do? Pummel it into bits? If that rock was a ******head, would that make the little ones ****** nuggets?

The OP said they were removing it. Idk where they’re gonna put, but if you’ve got space in your yard you can call it whatever you want.

A Boulder would actually be pretty awesome to have, especially in the south.

About damn time, that Boulder assaulted my uncle and was never held accountable




It was a fair trial, even though the evidence was rock solid

The Boulder may not have been gneiss, but it certainly wasn’t guilty of what it’s been accused of.

There is not a black person in America that saw that rock and truly was reminded of anything hurtful

Who cares about black people? The important part is a white liberal found it offensive.

The boulder was referred to as a “n——-head” — a commonly used expression in the 1920s to describe any large dark rock — at least once in a 1925 Wisconsin State Journal story.


wait what? so one time in 1925 someone said that looked like a n head?

that thought didnt even cross my mind. I think the people wanting it removed are the racists.
