"savages"????
What part of the above described behavior by those people not Savage like? You see the video?
Uncivilized, barbarian, violent, primitive. Unfortunately, the PC police have taken savage and turned it into a racist word, much like thug. I'm old enough that I grew up using thug and savage without regard to color or race. They describe(d) behavior. If someone is opposed to the use of those words, then it is perhaps they who have an issue with race. i don't think race when I see those words (until hyper-sensitive people point out that these are their trigger words and they need to run to a safe space). PC police don't get to redefine words. I will continue to use thug and savage where appropriate. And yes, white people can and have historically been savages. Same with natives, blacks, Asians, Hispanics, etc... Again, the word describes behavior.
I disagree. Racist people have adopted the word 'Savages' because they can no longer get away with the word 'nigger'.

you know the french word for aboriginals? "les sauvages". so yeah, I actually don't have an issue with thug. But I have do have an issue with savage. it does describe behaviour, but more often than not it describes the behaviour of a certain group of people. non-whites.

You know now that I think about it there COULD be some truth to to that. At one time long ago the American Indians were described in that way as a way of saying they were the lowest of the low of society back then. Even though they were peaceful Indians many were just fighting to protect and keep their land.
Well, it now appears there was no book and that there was a gun involved in this shooting. If so and it appears so not much should come any further after an investigation has been concluded to the officers involved. It's very unfortunate the city has erupted like it has, that should not have happened however over the years with built up resistance to the Charlotte police force this violence seemed likely.
Peace

Interesting perspective, and I can understand how that would shape your view of the word. I didn't know that about the French word, and have no frame of reference for that usage. I know that in Canada with labeling laws you're bombarded with French language, so I can see how this would strike a nerve. It sounds like the French and/or Quebecois have bastardized the word, or perhaps we (English speakers) have. But really, that usage doesn't show up in English dictionaries (Oxford, Merriam-Webster, Cambridge English, etc...). Oxford does show the origin: Middle English: from Old French sauvage wild, from Latin silvaticus of the woods, from silva a wood.
I do promise to never use the word savage while visiting Canada!

Bingo. Now here is someone who gets it.
you could use the same argument for the N word. many racists will argue the N word is only used to describe the "bad" black people, not the good ones.
there is something to be said about being too PC. I get that. But on the other end, there is also something to be said about being a decent human and changing with the times and being sensitive to others. it's not all about you.
Yeah can't wait for Trump to be president he will know what to do with the savages I'm sure no ?
I agree with your first part however Nobody know's how to handle the Savages like the ones in Carolina...that Fraud and complete failure that has been in there the last 8 years sure as shit doesn't. Boy did we ever get some CHANGE Alright....

Words are words and in America you have the right to use them freely even if other find them offensive. You can use any adjective you want to describe a group or persons behavior. Get over it. Savage can apply to an animal as well. No need to differentiate the color of fur to determine if it's offensive or racist.

Yes, words are words. And as you pointed out, savage also applies to animals, and in this case (and historically) racial minorities. If you say something, expect hearing something in response.

I've never given thought to the word "thug" before. If you'd ask me I would say it means a gangster, and not related to race. I would have used that word to describe anyone who looks like they could belong to a gang. But who do you picture when you think of a gang member? Based on about the first 5 google searches I did they all place about 75-80% of gang members as Hispanic or black. I could see how some have perceived the word Thug evolve into targeting certain ethnic groups, but I would still believe people who use it are still referring to a gangster and not the group as a whole.

Racists often think they're right and usually need people like you to collude with them.

Yes, words are words. And as you pointed out, savage also applies to animals, and in this case (and historically) racial minorities. If you say something, expect hearing something in response.
It comes down to intent. If you can prove to me that the word was intentionally used as a racist reference then you have something. If not then the word is just an adjective(fierce, violent, uncontrolled), noun(primaries and uncivilized), or verb(attack or maul). The word can describe a group or people or a person regaurdless of their skin color. Appearently in your world if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then calling it a duck is offensive and racist.

historical context also matters. if the duck was named a duck by a bunch of oppressive geese 200 years ago because of the colour of its feathers and the shortness of its neck, then yeah, calling it a duck is offensive and racist.
