I do not think so. I believe it is just like when you get mad a female and you automatically call her a B***H. or your when you get mad and use the word F**K. It is just an easy way to express anger but the meaning is not the same in the context you outlined above.

Well iv gotta admit i know white ppl who do use the n-word at black ppl, but i am not one of those ppl! Nor would i want 2 be!
I've had/still have black friends as well as chinese and asian friends and i've never had a problem wiv any of them nor have i been unfair or been abusive to ppl in the street or the scenario that your'e thinking of which is racial slur.
However one thing that does suprise me, excuse me for my naviety here, that some black people that i do know will call themselves n******! which i find really strange.
Im not black obviously but i do find it rather strange that they use this word to themselves but when a white person uses it (remember i don't use the word) in that manner, its racism.
I know that some black ppl may be joking and some white ppl may be joking when they say it, they just say the word w/out saying it in a harsh manner, of course im not defending those who use the word as a racial slur because you shouldn't dislike a person for there colour of there skin full stop.

I don't think ALL white think that way, but if a person was raised to think that way...it would take a long time for someone to change their attitude or feelings almost overnight. So, if a white person did say the n word, whether or out anger or jokingly, I wouldn't be shocked no matter how long I knew that person.
And in response to "the nothing":
The reason white people (not me but a good percentage of white people) think black people are ignorant is because they don't speak correctly.
THAT COMMENT RIGHT THERE IS THE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHY I AM NOT SURPRISED OF WHAT COMES OUT OF A WHITE PERSON'S MOUTH.
Not showing a proper grasp on the English language for any human who speaks English is a sign of ignorance and unintelligence.
SO ANYONE THAT DOES NOT SPEAK AS ELOQUENT AS YOU IS IGNORANT AND UNINTELLIGENT?
I understand that this may be the way their family raised them but children in school are given English and grammar lessons. And no one is stopping them from going to the library and educating themselves.
IN CASE YOU DID NOT KNOW BUT THERE ARE MANY SCHOOLS IN THIS COUNTRY THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE PROPER FACILTIES TO ACCOMODATE A CHILD'S REQUIREMENT FOR DECENT EDUCATION, MUCH LESS A LIBRARY. MANY OF THE FINANCES FOR EDUCATION ARE NOT GOING TO SCHOOLS THAT REALLY NEED TO UPGRADE THEIR BOOKS AND COMPUTERS. SO INSTEAD OF ASSUMING THAT BLACKS ARE TOO LAZY TO GO TO THE LIBRARY, CHECK YOUR FACTS.
But racial slurs in any form are disrespectful and are also a sign of ignorance and unintelligence.
THAT WE AGREE, BUT REMEMBER ONE THING...SLURS ARE NOT JUST WORDS, THEY ARE ALSO THOUGHTS.

well, there are a class of people that are a low life in every race. As to the reference you make about whites I am certain blacks do the same. I think everyone is different. I am certain some people do and others don't think that.
Here's a problem. What exactly does ****** mean??? a black person?? a way of acting?? Is it OK for blacks to say it but not whites???
White people that act black. What does that mean??? Not a racist?? you sure???

I've never used the "N" word in my life never thought of black people as anything like that, I see them as people... my friends call me that, but there's an inside joke that goes along with it... I'm white, by the way...

Well I don't actually know ALL the white people in the world. If I were to answer on their behalf, that would be racist to make assumptions on an entire race of people based only on skin colour. You say you're not a racist BUT.............

I hate racism. Its shallow. I hate it when people of differnt ethnic backgrounds think they are better than others. I see white, black, asians, latinos do the same.
