Re: "Thundercracker" is racist term?

whoa, sorry I found that a little funny but I guess if its taken from certain point of view then yeah it can be considered racist.

but for me the first thought that comes to mind when reading his name (aside from it being his name since i just grew up with that) is cheese crackers and soup crackers, y'know the square ones with salted or unsalted tops

I was more entertained with everyone's comments.

It just goes to show that someone prefers protecting her kids by allowing ignorance.

Re: "Thundercracker" is racist term?

Saying that the word "cracker" is the Caucasian equivalent of the N word is like saying that losing money in the stock market is the Caucasian equivalent of the holocaust.
