Well of course none of you people have been called a golliwog before so I can understand why you are taking this stance.
How about the following:
"N****r is just a word used to define negro people, black people have such chips on their shoulders".
Also no one on here would agree that calling women "bitches" and "Ho" is a good thing and as such can be used on passing in a public place like the BBC green room to describe a female tennis player.
Or how about the C-Word.
Come to think of it when was the last time you heard any black person call a white person a honky in public, or on TV or in the BBC green room. After all a honky is just a lovely pig that gives us plenty of food and are cute animals really.
Childish, racist talk like this is why the BBC should be commended. It is possible to be racists "unaware" so when corrected you should humbly accept and change your language. Golly used to be an innocent toy but it is no longer such and the only people who want to retain its memory have racist undertones. Talk to them long enough and you will see their true colours shining through.
