Anyway, it's obvious why Possessed spelled it out: so that he could go on a tirade against political correctness when people objected. 

 False, it was more of an oversight than anything I didn't anticipate that much of a reaction.  I mean if I had used it to label a person or group of people or anything like that I would understand and would have deserved it.  Maybe I deserved it anyway, but I hardly see how one post  counts as a tirade.  I'm sorry that I was so uncouth as to spell out the complete word, I was not advocating it's use as a racial slur, I was merely providing an example of a racial slur.  It's true I could have just said "n-word" and gotten the point across, and I probably should have, it was just an f-wording oversight people, J-word C-word, relax and move on, I won't do it again.  Anytime you wanna stop talking about it would be fine with me.

Why might you be so certain? Did not his explanation make sufficient sense to allow the matter to rest as stated?

Yes.  It was a mistake, I shouldn't have said it, but as I've repeatedly said I don't condone it's use it was just an example.  Can we please stop the bandwagon now? The first three or four people to reply made their point, and it is a valid one and I concede, there's no need for half a page worth of people repeating it.
