KingCrabCake posted...Nope. Depends on context. Michael Brown was a thug. It speaks to a very basic lack of comprehension of the English language to argue he wasn't, or that calling him a thug is racist. --- 'It's okay that those gangbangers stole all my personal belongings and cash at gunpoint, cuz they're building a rec center!' - OneTimeBen ...

It's one of the go-to buzzwords that often gets used by some people almost exclusively for black people, so much like "uppity" it definitely grabs my attention and I need to rethink what was said or typed back in my head.

I've heard the term used to describe a specific type of fashion. Typically a hoodie, a flat bill hat, and baggy clothing with maybe some flamboyant jewelry. The color of the persons skin seemed to be irrelevant when using the term "thug" to describe the fashion.

I remember CE flipping out once when AssultTank make a topic with "thug" in the title, and it was about some white criminals. A bunch of the users who I'm sure you can guess had meltdowns and thought he was just doing it to troll.
