All these white kids dropping the N bomb

Am I the only one who runs into this all the time? I'm sick and tired of hearing, f**k you ni**a!" and "Watch me kill this Goblin b**ch, ni**a!" I don't care who you are, that bulls**t needs to stop. It doesn't make you sound cool. Just because there's no brothers out there in suburbia to call you out on it, doesn't make it okay. Edit: Wow. Evidently there's a lot of real hate out there. It's honestly amazing how many people come running to the defense of bigots. That being said, let's clear a few things up regardless. Personally, I don't use the word and I don't think anyone should use it, even black people. That word put a face on extreme hatred and generations of severe oppression (some of which is still taking place). So, for everyone saying "it's just a word, get over it", you're wrong it's not "just a word". Just because it doesn't mean anything to you, doesn't mean, it doesn't represent a lot more than that to some people. My grandfather sure thought it was more than a word when he was burglarized and beaten to death by a group of skin heads when he was 74 years old and had that word spray painted all over his house. So, if you'll excuse me it's not your call. Secondly, yes, some black people use that word as a major part of their vernacular. As, I said before this word was the face of, and representative of some very dark times. So, if they choose to disempower it by using it as a term of endearment they can. Again, not anyone else's call to make. Finally, yes, I did say "white" and no it is not stereotyping. I was referring to a group that picked me up off the forums for a raid the other day. It was fairly obvious they were white when they were saying things like, "suck my white d**k you ni**a bi**h" and "I'm gonna whip your a** like a slave". Unfortunately this is something I run into a lot, and I don't think anyone should have to put up with that. Hence the post. Edit 2: Wow. I can't believe the amount of hate this has generated. I never would have guessed there would be such an overwhelming amount of support and justification for overt racism. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. People's true colors come out when they don't have to look you in the eye when the say something. So much for progress from the next generation. Sad.
