Dont do anything.. Why lower yourself to his ignorant level?

*sigh* Every time I start feeling a bit better about society, crap like this happens.
My advice to you is this: be the better person. The bigger man (figuratively and physically). Chances are, if he's an adult, his thinking is ingrained and there is nothing you can do or say to change that. Talking to such an ignorant person is a waste of spirit, and will only provoke him further and make the situation worse. Walk away from him, ignore him and don't give him his audience. If he feels he's getting to you, he'll use it. If he doesn't get a reaction, and loses his thunder that's like a sucker punch to his ego.
However, if you hear a child saying this, a young one, correct them by telling them it is a hurtful swear word. Any culturally targeted slang is just that - ignorant, dirty and hurtful. Peace.

ignore him, kicking his butt only confirms to him that his racial hatred is justified and your actions will be a reflection on the black community as a whole. wouldn't it be a better reflection on you to recognize that he is too ignorant to know better and not contribute to the stereotype he is trying to push you into emulating?
take some satisfaction in knowing that you are the more intelligent of the two of you, and that he will never get any smarter.
the only benefit to racism is that it limits your christmas card list from getting too long

okay unlike everybody above me ..I am going to tell you you did good on not getting into a fight about it ..Be the bigger person .Do not let this BIGOT know that it hurt you ..because if he knows chances are he is going to keep it up .Be proud of who you are ...there is no reason not to be ....The problem with this person is that he is not happy with himself,so him trying to degrade you he thinks that makes him better.When in fact it makes him look like an a** and most likely makes him feel worse about himself.Go on with you life and live it to the fullest.Let him be a puke!!!! Do not get mad because he is immature..GOOD LUCK

When you are in a fight things get said that shouldn`t be said. Tell him how sorry you are for him having a mother that would teach him words like that . If that doesn`t work then KICK HIS ***!

My first feeling would be to whip his little a**, while slinging racial slurs with every punch. Depending how old you are, I would tell my parents.
This time you can ignore it, but it should not continue.

Maybe you should explain where the word originated from and how it affects people to be called that, believe it or not he may think its okay! Someone either taught him to use that word or never taught him not to.

ignore the ignorant. Don't sink to his level. Plus you can't go around hitting everyone that offends you. "Having Power is the ability to control yourself" Be powerful.

You beat the sh!t out of him. That's what your do. Who cares if he's older. Tell you a good thing to get is a box cutter, you jack up his face. That's what you do.

Why not explain to him the real meaning of the word.
It translates as "Black". Are you that colour or are you brown?
Make it scientific so that the word seems silly.
