	Court Backs Ban on Racial Slurs at Work / State justices say pervasive use of epithets is harassment
		The ``pervasive use of racial epithets'' that a judge or jury has found violates discrimination laws ``is not protected by the First Amendment and such unlawful conduct properly may be enjoined,'' wrote Chief Justice Ronald George in the court's decision.
		The 4-to-3 decision is the first in the nation to address the complicated issue of how to deal with hate speech in the workplace, as opposed to speech in public areas where a hearer is free to walk away.
		In her concurring opinion, Werdegar upheld the judge's ban because it took place in the workplace and the Latino workers were ``an unwilling and captive audience.'' She also said the state has a compelling interest in eliminating racial discrimination.

		The use of racial slurs simply implies ignorance toward the rest of the world (a denial that we are all one and the same) or a subconcious hatred for oneself (the root of the need to insult another person stems from one's discomfort for themselves).
		Every single race, skin tone, job, and personality has a slur, and people DO have the entitlment to speak as they want, how they want and when.
		There's no reason someone should get upset over what I think or say, they have the right to ignore me even more so than i have the right to say something, but no one has the right to limit what I, or anyone else, chooses to say.
