If you want white people to stop saying the N word then maybe black people should stop saying it to.
English
-
Different circumstances.
-
Same principle
-
When you've lived as a black person you can decide that for humanity. Oh snap, you can't :/
-
Oh so if your black then you apparently are able to decide for humanity what we can and cannot do? Possibly the most idiotic thing i have read all day...get over your self-asserted sense of accomplishment, the word is culturally perceived as a racial slur, when by definition it is an ignorant person...sounds familiar don't it? Same thing happened when the [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] adopted the swastika symbol, no perceived as an evil sign of bigotry and oppression, when many religions have used this ancient symbol for thousands of years.

Whether or not something is or is not offensive is not, your,, call. Period. Those who are offended like the OP have valid reasons for their offense which should be respected. Your arrogance is galling. You don't get to tell people how they should feel when you don't live their frame of reference.
-
Not telling people how they should feel, obviously that's subjective. What is objective is the definition of the word. Also whose call, exactly, is it to make then? Everyone is entitled to their opinion, as we differ is ours. What is ignorant is you saying, " When you've lived as a black person you can decide that for humanity." Not being arrogant on my part, just stating facts. How unfortunate it is that they are so often misconstrued by individuals such as yourself.
