Eubonics 101

There is a handbook that has been passed around in the Houston police department for the last couple of months called "Eubonics 101". From what I could tell from the TV pictures of it, it was a many times copied effort originally made on a PC. But it had real English description of words used by the N word people and a blurb saying that understanding eubonics could save your life.(in tense police situations, one assumes)

It has stuff like:

Mo - (mow) - more
Fo - (foe) - for, or four

However, when you put the two together as in MoFo, it comes out with a completely different meaning, so it seems to me that a booklet describing what eubonics words and sounds actually mean appears useful to me.

I would love to get a copy... as a reference for research of course.

Now, since it has been "discovered" by the higher ups, the N word people and the media have their panties all in a bunch again, howling away at the moon, or whatever it is they like to howl at. For some reason, they think that this booklet is an insult, a racial slur, a slap in the face to those who prefer to communicate using eubonics.

All it really does is present an opportunity for those who speak English to understand a primarily African/American generated street talk, and since most of the words and descriptions are already in Websters, this little booklet is - in reality - just a compilation created for convenience, a "quick reference" for a Houston police officer engaged in conversation with a eubonics proponent.

What a shame. Yet another effort to communicate with the natives goes down in flames.
