That show, Sanford and Son, and others are what I was referring to. I know that Archie Bunker was supposed to be a buffoon and ignorant, but the fact that they could still use his language and outlook as a foil for jokes kind of invalidates the idea that "certain words" are so heinous and hurtful that only some people should be allowed to use them (because they're only heinous and hurtful coming from a select group of people).
