words have meanings, ya know.
when you call some kid who is walking home from the store with skittles and iced tea who has never been in a fight in his entire life a "thug", that's pretty clearly coded speech.
when you call someone with a violent and uncontrollable temper who will attack at the slightest provocation a thug, that's a proper usage of the word. especially when that person has tried to smash his momma's head in with a hammer, inflicted a classmate with a serious head injury, and attempted to stab a friend to death over the radio station they were listening to.
see how that works?
i properly apply the word. you and your buddies over in politics 2.1 abuse and rape the word for your own coded racial reasons.
why don't you go scurry back to that shithole where you belong.
