but, but, "brothers" call each other ni**ers all the time, and it's pretty much accepted by society. (I've heard it in the grocery store) Does that mean those "brothers" are ignorant? as well as all rappers? or is it not racist when colored people call each other racist names?
Chaos,
I know you and I go at it from time to time and thats cool but I think you need my help on this one
brother! Now let the world get understanding!
1) The word "N" or any racially degrading term should never to be used by anyone as a term of endearment! If a black man calls me a "Ni**er" it is offensive to me!
2) The so called "brother/s", i.e. (Black Man) that use the "N" word, IMO are ignorant and lost; Why defame yourself? According to my dictionary the meaning of the word has not changed!
3) Some so called "White people", i.e. (Caucasian) that use the "N" word, are IMO ignorant and lost as well! I have even heard some of my caucasian brothers say such things to each other like "That's my Ni**er" how stupid is that? This I will never comprehend.
4) Any Minority especially in the USA should never throw stones (racially slur one another) because they too, live in glass houses.
5) Never refer to someone of African descent as
"colored" that's just as bad as calling that person a "Ni**er"!
6) Ethnic purity is going the way other the Dodo, in the USA anyway! Not many pure descendants here anymore.
7) Rappers don't speak for people of African descent!

Bottom line the "N" word is not a good word and imo does not mean a person is showing you respect by using it!
