I like to tack on to the old saying- "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me... so I'm gonna let words hurt me as a stand in for sticks and stones."
Its something that almost needs to stay unspoken. When that guy spray painted the n word across LeBron's house, his intent was to hurt him and his family. His intent to do harm is the main thing. Because we've all decided to let words harm us, that guy's job was done. He did the harm. But if we all agreed that words have no power over us one way or the other, he may have decided to do real harm to Lebron and his family.

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
