Alright, but again I bring up the point that: Why can they say it to each other, and it's not "racist" or "wrong"? If it has negative connotations, that means they insult each other constantly? Makes perfect sense to me.

It's probably for close to the same reason that girls who are friends can say "sup, whore" or "hey slut", but it's not cool for you or me to go up to one of those girls and address them as such.

Damn I learned that one the hard way.

There were complaints about the post. When I first saw it I was concerned because I felt that a line was crossed. This is the single most emotionally charged word in our vocabulary. I am Swedish and there is no comparable word that I am aware of - so I can't empathize. We can argue all day about whether it should be a special word, but it is.

I have no problem with BP having a list of words that are verbotten. I just think we should be niggardly about what we put on that list.

Ahh I dont care that we changed the word on the thread title. It is not a big deal at all. Some of the Reasoning behind that kind of crap really pisses me off. That is all. I am done ranting for one day. But I shall return!! Muhahaha.

A teacher was sued and summarily fired for using that word (not the slur) in a classroom...if you can believe it.
