Im so sick of black gansters calling each other that, shouldn't they be offended by that word?? i swear, if Martin Luther King was still alive, he'd be SO MAD. a black once said "we turned that word into something positive". WHAT IS SO POSITIVE ABOUT IT??? That word was called by their ancetors as slaves, a word so hurtful for them, do u think they are making their ancestors proud using that word to greet each other everyday or putting it into a rap song?? i didin't think so. can YOU tell me why they are still using that word?

no excuse, but it seems old habits die hard.you know its like a kid when they hear and repeat a swear word they know they should not say it but then they do and then pretty soon they say even worse swear words.it is hard to stop! i tell my grand daughter to not swear at all because it makes a person look ignorant and uneducated!!! i do think it goes too far if a persons private phone conversations are used against them and recorded illegally !!! i mean how far are people going to ride this train!!!! if people want racial harmony then they need to stop throwing up barriers and acting like they are offended cause some one who is white or Asian says the same thing they say,that is racism!!! and people who are white and black or anything and black only acknowledge their black side for special treatment when many are more white looking than black,it is their claim to fame,seems a bit backwards and one sided to me.no person alive today can claim to have been a slave in the united states most do not even know someone who was.let us leave the past in the past and move forward together,for no matter the color of our skin we are all brothers,accept it!

I think its good not to allow hearing a certain word to ruin your day, however, having a double standard about who can say what does not seem like a good idea to me.
Bad words should be considered offensive, regardless of who says them. However, equally, what someone actually means should always me more important than the words that they use.
Insensitivity should be corrected, and applied racism should be stomped out. Hatred, ignorance, lack of critical thought, group thinking, should all be corrected.

I use it all the time and will continue to use it but then again I'm black and I can use it. The dog is a white redneck, he is not allowed to use the word, therefore he will be punished as he should be.
I really don't care what white people think about me or rappers using the N word, it's irrelevant comedy to me. Any white person stupid enough to say it, get what they deserve as deemed by the American public.
