Who are the Spans?



I've heard the term span used as slang for an idiot.

Prove you aren't racist. Invite her to dinner with six British faggots.

Several years ago my Mom and Dad "adopted" a black cocker spaniel whose name was "Spooky". My Dad was telling his coworkers about said dog and was labeled as racist due to the name he didnt even give the damn dog.

A couple of years back I sent an article into a local rag here in UK with the word 'snigger' in it.

I was asked to rewrite that portion of my text.

I did so, using the word 'snegro'.

My article was returned rejected, along with a note not to bother submitting any more.
