Yeah sometimes, I think it might be a regional thing. Not usually though.does anyone call any class of white people "thugs?"

really, those were the *best* non-racially charged words you could come up with?remember thuggish ruggish bone by bone thugz n harmony? that celebrates that theyre not just rappers, but thugs. what happened to that definition?
and even if i agreed with you, what word has less of a racial connotation? ghetto? hoodrat? "looks like he owns a pitbull"?
I’m from Minnesota, and hockey is the first place my mind goes when I hear thug as well.I am being honest. I'm 40 and that word was used precisely as I stated well before the hip hop culture started embracing it.
I'm Canadian and we also use it to describe goons in hockey.
Anything word uttered out of a white persons mouth is racist
According to liberals
Or to those who use it to refer minorities 90% of the time.Only to racists.
What the hell is happening to this country? Everybody a sensitive bitch these days.
it is.Isn't white-(n-word) an oldtimey slur for Irish people?
So your user name is like the modern translation of that.

it means that to you. as with most words, many people use it in different ways. at least where im from, it seems the word is used for a very specific type of person. i dont hear white people called thugs around here, even if theyre criminals or troublemakers. theyre called some other derogatory term, but not thugs.
and if people in the thread were really being honest with themselves, id bet your experiences with the word are similar to mine.
