Although i am not a racist person by any means i think that the use of this word in this day and age should be over looked.
If persons of African decent can use this term to each other on a day to day basis why cannot i call a white guy a nigger.
Black people are not niggers. People of lower quality are niggers. They can be white or asian or latino.
Niggers are the kind of fucks who shoot you for your car, jump you for money or accessories or mainly start fights for no appearant reason.

The dictionary disagrees though:
3 entries found for nigger. nig·ger ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ngr) n. Offensive Slang
Used as a disparaging term for a Black person: “You can only be destroyed by believing that you really are what the white world calls a nigger” (James Baldwin).
Used as a disparaging term for a member of any dark-skinned people.
Used as a disparaging term for a member of any socially, economically, or politically deprived group of people: “Gun owners are the new niggers... of society” (John Aquilino).

i'm glad you actually spelled out the word "nigger". alot of people say or write "the 'n' word". if you're talking about the word "nigger", then say nigger.
me and my best friend call each other nigger all the time. and we're not even black.

i'd be very careful what to call black people (if i had to) in US...i mean there are so many expressions, and appernatly 90% of them are offensive - i'd just rather avoid calling them anything :)

i don’t really see a use for it myself, but it's just used a lot nowadays for rap songs and such so they can always rhyme the word "trigger" with it..
or it's just used as filler-word in the songs.. like when someone would normally say "uhmm" or pause shortly..

i just bumped this old thread about this... if people were okay about it, i'd love to be able to use the term "nigga" but it wouldn't be meant as a degrading term, because in most situations it's not, it's a brotherhoodie-type of term... which i dig... but poor old pasty-white me... can't even sing along to my favourite rap songs...

yeah.. that comment wasn't funny.. or insightful.. or anything..
we should all just remember to treat others how you'd like to be treated.. call them what they want to be called, and don't call them what you know they don't want to be called.
you can use those "bad" words in private if you really feel like being a "bad-ass" and laughing at such taboo-ness.. but just don't get accustomed to it. because you will feel pretty bad after accidentally saying it to or near an actual black person, who may be much like yourself, but they will not find it as funny as you do..
if you're lucky you won't just be resented, but you'll get your ass kicked!

to be fair that can be wrong.
In one instance i could tell one of my black friends "hey nigger pick my cotton" it doesnt actually mean we have to go to a plantation and start harvesting.
Sure if you dont know the person it would be quite unwise. That's for sure. But what deems this word as offensive or any word for that matter.
You could call me honkey or cracker and i couldn't give less of a fuck

yes, i agree, but i'm just giving some suggestions. i think if we all followed what i said we'd all get along much better.
someone could call you a lazy uneducated person, or any other connotation that goes along with the word, or a cracker or any other name that people call people.. it just wouldn't be nice..
and isn't that what we're here for, to at least try to get along?
why does anyone really need this word?
the only positive thing i can think of that comes out of it, is that it forces us to not forget the past..

Yes, I know Indians are Asians (the dotted ones). Sorry if I don't seem lucid, I'm hulucinating. I just had some curry. Combing the unsanitary conditions it was made in with the mounds of nutmeg I'm seeing pink elephants. Excuse me.

I say this word sometimes, but only is a truly joking fashion, like if a good friend is doing something silly and hits me or something, maybe.. MAYBE ill be like "ya fuckin nigga!"
Hear this though.... : I use the word because to me a nigger is a black person who steals, smokes crack and hits his wife, as well a honkey is the same thing who is white, and so on for all minorities.... and ofcourse like I said whites too.
So really I think these certain terms and others arent racist, only just accurate to each individual race. each one has their own "bad people".
