That quite possibly has more to do with your obnoxious nature than anything to do with the word. I learned the meaning of coon a good ten years before I learned the racial slur connected to it. Where do you think Coon skin caps originated from?
Liberals now pulling away from Cons into majority territory

Actually it was at this level for most of the year before it went up for a few months.
It went back to this level in September.
No, I just wasn't aware that it had any racial overtones at all when I used it. I was in an American barracks at the time. Lots of jaws dropped.
At least I had ignorance as an excuse. You've just indicated you knew it was a racial slur and used it anyways. :lol: I guess it's rather obnoxious of me to point that out, isn't it?
That's even worse... Ask any pollster, they will tell you this is a clear sign that Trudeau has lost all the momentum that it took a year to develop.
It is all bad news for JT from here on, even faster if he decides to talk to the media
Nonsense. He beat the crap out of that crooked black-belt ex-military (edit--) Conservative senator.
Well, not quite yet I hope.
There is a lot of comedic value in having Trudeau speak to the media, that's worth having him around, non?
Jr. has got to grow up before he can run a country and he should probably start out with a very small country. Litchenstein comes to mind.
I think next October is the appointed date.
It's probably better if he hangs around until the election.............he makes Harper look good!
Misguided more than obnoxious I'd say I would rephrase what you said thusly "I knew while it could be used as a racial slur, I used it according to its original meaning". I could say a woman is a tramp (vagabond) YOU might choose to interpret it as she is a ****. Get the picture?

Well, I'd just like to see a change. Can't let these guys stay in too long, regardless of political stripe.
Yeah, "better for the country"....
Morons and socialists.
Better for the country, if you want us to become Greece.
I agree an occasional change is good for democracy......but first the opposition has to offer a viable alternative.
The socialist NDP is NEVER a viable alternative.
The Liberals led by Trudeau are not a viable alternative.
Four more years.
Poor Colpy.
You'll just have to move out of Trudeau wins.
Byelection results show NDP losing ground in Ontario’s suburbs, improving Trudeau’s chances in 2015
