the "N" word Options

[*corizzle20*]

i use it.

[silver-rain]

eh, i don't use it

[*kryogenix*]

What's up my neighbor?

I don't think it's fair that black people can call other black people EN EYE DOUBLE G E ARR. It's rude no matter who it comes from.

[Teesa]

i dont use it and i think its wrong for other people to use it if of course they are not black. Like what if white people walked around calling each other JAP. I mean, wouldnt that be insulting?! Or walked around calling each other CHINK. Its not funny or fair. So I think its wrong for people to use it!!!

i agree..that word should NEVER be said..it is a racial slur..it makes me angry when i hear it..and even angrier when people use it for absolutely no reason at all, or they think they're cool or something

[mizz_mithy]

i never use it. i find it disrespectful. i don't minda if u say it to me playin around but i just don't use it.

[capsule]

ehh..these topics are making me sick...

personally, i think you are a bad person..i don't think anyone should use that word.

you can say it because you're cool like that and you don't have to be black?

so using racial slurrs is now cool? not even black people should use the N word...
it's bad enough that people still use it..but it's even worse that people think it's "COOL" now

what's your problem? theres nothing wrong with saying the "n" word if they don't use it to offend anyone racially or what not. i see friends start off conversations with "whats up my n!gger", and there's nothing wrong with that, its their way of greeting each other. you think everyone who uses that word uses it racially? psh, w/e..

what about "hell"? is it wrong for a pastor to use that word in his sermon, regardless of the fact that he's using the word modestly? nope, its completely fine. what about "b!tch"? is it wrong for someone to call their pet dog a b!tch? it might attract attention if said in public, but you know what...I couldn't care. It's the world's fault for using words (which was then considered casual) such as "f*ck, c*ck, d*mn, and a*s" wrongfully and turning them to taboo.

its all a matter of how people use the word, not just whenever they use it or not...and its sad to see people so offended whenever they hear the word. and oh...don't give me the excuse "well, [insert high number here]% people use it offensively anyways" cause that's not fact and can never be proven statistically.

[sharerol]

I never use it. But sometimes my friend calls me that, so I just call him a midget. I don't think it's right to use that word. And no, I'm not black.

[latin mak oh roh...]

no i don't use it. but it's kind of like a right you have that you can joke around w/ i guess. like say my friends and i are always jokin around bout wen were gonna mow our lawns next or if we have a green card or how we got across the border. stuff like that. i dunno i think its somethin you use if youre black. i dunno... lost myself...

[CRaZyInLuV1301]

im half black and i dont like it when people who arnt black use that word... i dont even say that word unless im joking around with my brothers and sisters.

how can the N word not be used as a racial slurr..when the word itself IS a racial slurr?

and your examples don't relate to your argument..

what are you talkin about? when my friend greets someone they know with "whats up my n!gger", are they being racial towards that person? no...like i said, its a matter of how you use it..and the examples i've used in my "argument" relate to that.

[LiNHy POO]

nahh i dont like that word... its kinda racist to me.

so why is it disrespectful if a white person said that to a black person?

[aznxdreamer]

well if a black person were calling me the c word then id call them the n word. other than that i hate the word.

[capsule]

so why is it disrespectful if a white person said that to a black person?

well....my friend aint black. he says it to his black friends and they don't care since they know each other. its only disrespectful if he uses it offensively towards that person.

[*RiC3xBoy*]

nah, people have names and thats what i usually call em

[I.Luff.Emo.Boys.]

what do you guys think about the N word . . . do you use it . . .

sometimes when im with my friends i use it . . . wait actually i use it all the time
and no im NOT black all my friends use it too im a bad person ?

only when i pretend to be ghetto, and i end it with an "a"

i dont like the one with the "er"

[hi-C]

I think I feel offended by this topic... (Yes, I'm Black)

[Gypsy Eyes]

i will not use it... ever. Its so degrading and the fact of its original meaning... god i can't believe people can use that joking around

[pimpin231]

I use it sometimes.

I can say it cuz i'm cool like that and i don't have to be black

Your a f**king fag

[*stephinika*]

yeah i don't say it because it has such a horrible meaning. its racist and i hate any form of prejudice so yea.

[DaTru KataLYST]

i don't think I've ever said it. =/ i just realized that now!

[*basick*]

I use it sometimes.

I can say it cuz i'm cool like that and i don't have to be black

that was the gayest thing i have ever heard on here.

[sheepy]

um i dunt use it cuz i dunt talk about it lol

[acidbreeze]

I HATE IT
They call me cracker and white boy too often.
And I get no recall.

I DID NOT ENSLAVE YOU GET OFF MY BACK

[LiLEthiopian]

i'm black..and like royalfreshness said, some people don't think i'm black for some reason.. ...anyways...i don't use the word..unless i'm listening to a song. but o still keep it to a minimum..usually i just pause at that part of the song..

i remember when Jennifer Lopez said it and it wuz a big deal..
