    Good point.

    I guess they feel that they can say it to each other but if a white man says it then it's rascist which in itself is rascist as well?

    This is what bugs me big style. If the n word itself is deemed as racist how come no one bats an eyelid when Snoop Dogg puts it in his songs?

    I think it's more to do with the way word is used. If you are a white guy who is comfortable/friendly with a black person then most will not mind you using the word because of the obvious context that the word will be spoken.

    Not sure why any white person would want to call a black person a nigger if they don't know them, though. That would be strange. Lets be honest, if a white person is using the term it's generally in a racial manner. All about context.

    everyone of those gangsta rap songs has the word in umpteen times, is it considered racist to type the word written by a black man in a song for sale to make said blackman rich. I find its just a few woke ****s, pretending to be shocked and stunned by a word that the ****s themselves keep,and add into their own dialect of accepted vocabulary, So if its ok for them to use it its ok for us to

    There is a long tradition in minority groups of taking a word and "owning it"

    A lot of people in the gay community adopted the word "queer" in the 80s in a way to neutralise the effect of the idiots on the street calling them it

    Possible that black people have done the same after years of slavery and oppression and being referred to by that awful word

    Black people don't mind the word nigger. They just don't like being called it in a degrading and racist way.

    For the reasons stated - taking the word and claiming ownership of it to neutralise the effect

    Its all about context, Roger.

    If I'm sitting with a few of my mates in a boozer and one of the lads calls me a daft cnut, none of us will bat an eyelid. I know that, you know that.

    If I'm sitting enjoying a pint with my mates and some bloke walks over to our table and we are strangers to each other and he calls me a daft cnut, chances are I'm jumping straight out of my seat to confront him.

    Same with black people and the word nigger.

    Yet half my family are African and they never use that word in any context even as an insult, it is only used in America by blacks to belittle someone

    So owning a word a few may call you, and using the same word to call fellow blacks is ok and somehow not racist, bearing in mind that the Spanish which there a millions in America, have the words Nigga and Negro in there language

    kaffa is used by black Muslims to insult christian blacks, Spanish speakers use the N word to insult African Americans
