the "n" word

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..

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".
