1. When the word is used between blacks, it's equal to the word "dude" not  meant to insult and it's said nigga not nigger..Dr. Laura needs to watch the Boondocks to know thw difference lol.


What a load of crap, it is either ok to say it or it isn't.  End of.

It'ss not crap, thats how the word is used between blacks so get you facts straight. I agree the word is bad in general never said that  only blacks can say it.


No, people are all equal.  That means a black man and a whit eman saying the same word is no different.

 

 

The WORD is either wrong to use or it isn't, it does not matter who says it.  Who says it has nothign to do with it.


and thats why your logic fails, everything you say after the bold is correct... asumming the actual bolded is correct which it isnt. you would be very naive to think the world and its ppl are truly equal.

The world is NOT equal.... not even close

What a vague and preachy statement.

Fine, people are equal in terms of their human nature and inner potential?

of course.. but in the biggest picture, it doesnt play in very well

Kay, but you still can't deny that you're either imposing a double standard, or following the illogical argument I laid out earlier.

double standard?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_standard

The term double standard, coined in 1912,[1] refers to any set of principles containing different provisions for one group of people than for another, typically without a good reason for having said difference.[2] A double standard may take the form of an instance in which certain applications (often of a word or phrase) are perceived as acceptable to be used by one group of people, but are considered unacceptable—taboo—when used by another group.

Hence why KylieDog was bringing the point that we all humans.

You think whites are better then?  Or maybe blacks are better?   That is racist thinking.

your just twistng my words. we are equal in the fatc that w are all humans.. but not in life.

Color

religion

gender

sexual preferances

Things like this dictate how we are treated in society, it not about being better or worse because noone is better than the other at the core, but layers like the ones above sepertate us.

I am not arguing for or against this thread only laying the reality out why its like this. its wrong? of course it is but it just the way it is.

Well yeah it's a double standard, but there's a good reason for it with centuries of linguistic baggage.

And white people don't really have anything to gain by using the word.  It's like women saying "hey why can't I piss in a urinal?!??"  The answer is "you don't have a penis."  This is the same issue (even though some women do it anyway).  There's just no reason to argue it because there's nothing to win.

Honestly, the word is much better off now than it was 50 or 100 years ago.  Now you can actually say "nigger" in a book without it getting banned.  You just can't pull a Michael Richards and repeatedly scream it into a microphone at a group of blacks.  I mean, it's perfectly legal, but not too smart.

It's like... Marty McFly can call himself chicken, but I fucking DARE you to call him a chicken.  There's no reason to call him a chicken unless you WANT what's going to happen afterwards.
