True. It doesn't really matter what one thinks of the word, it's what everyone else thinks about it that makes it impactful, sadly.

Nobody here finds Nigger bad unless you are using it in a really offensive way (like, what the fuck are you going stupid nigger?) But stuff like Hey Nigga - S;up Nigga - etc is perfectly fine

You're probably referring to an almost completely non-African American population whose opinion of the word is unimportant.

We started the Iraq war with America, didn't we?

| Your opinion of that particular word doesn't matter because your ancestors weren't oppressed (with the oppressors using this word extensively as part of the regime itself, thus making it a sort of horrible symbol.) I'm saying this from the perspective of society itself, I could give a damn less personally about a particular collection of sounds emitted from one's mouth. |

*rolls eyes* My great grandfather had bad things happen to him, and nothing bad happened to YOUR grandfather, so you have NO right to say things that I have the right to say.
Hell, for all you know, growing up as a kid, I was in a predominantly black neighborhood, and I was made fun, and even given physical harm a LOT by African Americans, for no reason other than that I was one of the only white kids at that school, and I was smaller than most other kids. They would call me the N word every day, because that's what they called each other... and by "they," I mean "African Americans." So while I PERSONALLY have issues with the word, I don't have the right to say it, because of the collection of "Black" kids who's only reason for hating the word is some sort of ass backward sub-nationality, because "their people" were oppressed, and I don't get to have a say, because I'm WHITE.
I'm not a racist just because I say the N-word, just as I don't think that a black person who calls his fellow black man the N-word. It just pisses me off so much.
I think the word is the dumbest thing that this country has in it... and the attitude toward it is just one of the most retarded things that I have ever come across.
I think that it's VERY racist that White People aren't allowed to utter the word. Fuck anyone who disagrees. Equality is fucking EQUALITY... get over it. I'll say whatever the hell I want.
I don't think I'll ever see that happen, so from now on, on the Internet, I am an African American.
Thank you anonymity.
Xkeeper, I suggest editing out my post, and closing this, like I suggested you close it last night.

Sigh.
