I take it that you mean more than just the "n" word. A teacher of mine used to say that the best way to guage a person's level of ignorance was to count the obsceneties and/or foul words in his/her language. I've consistently found that to be true. The more filthy a person's mouth, the more bigoted their language, the more ignorant they really are and are trying to hide it by what they consider "bold talk". It takes a much more educated or mentally stimulated mind to come up with more creative ways of expressing themselves. The next time you hit your thumb with a hammer, try hollering "DEFACATION" rather than sh*t and see what looks you get.

The "N-Word" has been around for a very long time:

TO make them feel that they are above the person that is receiving these insults.
