Thread Topic: The N Word

tongue NewbieThis was originally a thread on the Music page but I moved it here because it's broader issue than using the N word in rap music. I honestly have no problem with it so long as it's used by blacks. The definition of a word is subject to change, and some in the black community have given it a new meaning. Because it still carries a rough conatation, however, it should be used only by the group that redefined the word, as it is their meaning and not ours.

I think that's bullcrap. Just because of someone's race doesn't mean they can use different words or whatever.
Ignorance leads to isolation which leads to ... Something else. Martin Luther King Jr. said anyway.

LoL but just because of your race you shouldn't be able to say different words or whatever. I could say I could say it or whatever but I'm not going to.
