Um please quote where I said that it was okay for me to use the word and not you... I said that the use of any derogatory term and whether or not it's offensive can be put down to context.

Usage note: The term nigger is now probably the most offensive word in English. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly in recent years, although it has been used in a derogatory manner since at least the Revolutionary War. Definitions 1a, 1b, and 2 represent meanings that are deeply disparaging and are used when the speaker deliberately wishes to cause great offense. Definition 1a, however, is sometimes used among African-Americans in a neutral or familiar way. Definition 3 is not normally considered disparaging—as in “The Irish are the niggers of Europe” from Roddy Doyle's The Commitments—but the other uses are considered contemptuous and hostile. Use nigger in a Sentence See images of nigger Search nigger on the Web –noun 1. Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a. a black person. b. a member of any dark-skinned people. 2. Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a person of any race or origin regarded as contemptible, inferior, ignorant, etc. 3. a victim of prejudice similar to that suffered by blacks; a person who is economically, politically, or socially disenfranchised. Looks like dictionary.com disagrees with you 66% pf the time.

To be fair Karl, whens the last time you heard the word used to describe anything but blacks?
Pig can mean a lot of things too, but when I say it, im usually talking about cops. (For the food, I usually use the PC name, pork!)

U huh...so because the dictionary doesn't define the word as a "black specific" derogatory term, it isn't and hasn't been used in that manner? Seriously?
Does anyone honestly believe that the word "nigger" is not predominantly used to describe black people regardless of whom is using it, context or to what purpose? What would you expect a dictionary to say? nig⋅ger /ˈnɪgər/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [nig-er] Show IPA : a term used to describe black people. slang; nigga, nucka, nizzle, etc Hahahahaha! |

That's what makes this so much fun for me. I love reading all of these bs reasons why it's okay for white people to call black people niggers. Hahahahaha!

I never said that either tig. I said if you can, I can.
If I'm standing by and you call your neighbour, "my nigger" prepare to be insulted because its suddenly going to slip into my vocabulary. Another fine example, I drove one of my friends to the "black" grocery store. His term, not mine. So, I was pointing out the black coffee shops, black gas station, black stop sign when he realized I was just showing him how dumb he sounded referring to it as the "black" store because its near a black neighbourhood. But, you did say it was ok for you to say nigger because you're black. You've said it several times in this thread. And you then said it is not ok for me because I'm white. If you would like, ill gladly quote you when I get to my pc to show you.. |
