It just doesn't make much sense for non-black people to use the word in the casual fashion. I mean who would it be for? Would you say it only to black people or to everyone? It's tacky.

Having a specific word reserved for one single group of people is racist anyway, no matter how it's used, so it would be racist to say it only to blacks and downright stupid to say it to anyone else. Like I said, tacky.
