I know we been on this topic of race relations in America. I know a lot of conservatives and liberals always blame blacks for violence related to music. Also I notice here in NY everyone says the N word as slang especially the young kids. Rap concerts are dominated by whites. Check out the video and how do you feel about other minorities and whites using the N word.

They are just copying what they see in most rap music by black performers. If you don't want others using that name... stop using it yourselves.

Goes to show, you cant blame rap music as the main reasons of crime in the black communities vs the reality of poverty is what is the real cause of it. But I will say modern rap music is utter trash though.

Do you not like racial epithets being used against black people?

I'm assuming no since you dropped a racial epithet against conservative blacks just a couple of weeks ago.

I don't like it!!!! Cultural appropriation at its worse. Whites don't want limits. Why would they want to even use the word....knowing history and respecting our struggles. We should not use the word either, but the greater of two wrongs is whites using the term. How about whites start killing each other at the rate blacks do.....if you all want to do what we do....come on....we do it.

You asked a question then answered it.

Words dont effect me it would probably bother some others but not me.

Indentured, do you agree with Sean that such words are just words?

There is nothing to agree or disagree with because the OP stated what words mean to them personally. We are two different people. Now....words mean something to me, but you cannot ask the OP to agree or disagree with on how I feel....because it is what it is.

That having been said, again, because blacks kill blacks, some whites say we should not complain when police kill blacks, because we are doing it to ourselves too. Some of us black folk call each other the N word, so just like the police killing blacks, that should be ok too because we call each other that. To me....that just shows a blatant disrespect of black people. We (blacks) should not be disrespecting ourselves.....but that is something we learned from whites disrespecting us for centuries. Now that we disrespect ourselves......whites think it should be alright for them to do it.....all over again.
