also LOL @ the amount of people who actually think Asia only includes China and Japan. Log off the internet and look at a map maybe and you'll be amazed at what you discover.


Lol Asia is China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Thai-bo, Flipalinoes, and yaa, those are all the cities of the country of Asia right?

like it's already been said...its about the intentions...however...i will say this...


everybody...i mean every single fucking person on this planet....needs to forget about the negative connotations behind that word...only than can it be used as a bridge between cultures...why can't it be a universal term of endearment...rather than be debated on the politcal tip...people always talk....but rarely speak of their intentions....and more often than not...people take what others say...the way they want to...and not the way it was meant to be...why does this need to be any different? A

redneck in mississippi calls a black man a nigger......the black man nods his head, smiles, and says...yes I am.

Why? Because he doesn't know niggers like the redneck knows niggers...he knows niggers as a group of individuals who are strong...a group of individuals who wern't shamed by the word....but driven by it because their values allowed nothing less.

Now....keep in mind that....people your age...most likely anyways...have been taught since birth that some things are okay to turn away from or ignore....and others arn't...the person you might be refferring to when you say nigger...could very well be dudes grandfather...you expect someone to erase 15+ years of cognitive conditioning just because your intentions are good? Please..

straight up...if you arn't sure whether or not it's okay to say it...or ANYTHING for that matter..you probably shouldn't fucking say it.

well.......on a forum anyway.

^ i hope you were kidding with that first part...

and i agree that it is a word that (for a perfectly good reason) should be understood as a deeply rooted offensive term. i just think that, regardless of whether people know that the individual white person isn't "racist" or not (depending on your definition of that word), they still sound ignorant and stupid saying it... and its not THAT hard of a concept to conceive as to why black people feel comfortable calling each other the word, but don't feel comfortable being called it by whites.

thats all i'm saying.

It would be alot simpler if black people just stopped calling eachother the word. Calling eachother ther word isn't gonna make you forget the meaning of it. All it does is cause alot of tension in most cases. It eases the tension when its already there, but when it isn't there it definetly makes people uncomfortable and divides people imo. People just need to learn to acknowledge something that hurts themselves(or others) without having to repeatedly put it out there constantly. That shit just causes unneccecary problems.

^ ??????

I was referring to the group people who make that specific argument that I'm arguing against... you haven't made a single argument this whole thread. lol @ you getting offended and thinking i was talking about you when i even mentioned "immature suburban white kids" though. no i'm not from the hood, and i've never claimed to be... but i am FAR from an "immature suburban white kid." i wasn't insulting white people, or people from the suburbs... i was describing a specific group of people that i AM calling out.

don't get your panties in a bunch... its what little girls do.
