Faggot seems to be a very flexible word. It started as an insult to poor old women and went on to be offensive term for gay men and now is just a term used to insult people. (Did I not listen correctly, or was she addressing a woman with that term?)

Would you have a problem with the word bastard, because it is abusive to ex-marital born people?
