@jonadamich i aggree 110%......a lot of kids these days whether their black, asian, hispanic, middleeastern, or white do that. a lot of them focus on what their parents went through or lacked instead of focusing on what they have in front of them.....sadly they've become spoiled.....i come from liberty city, miami.....and was raised in chicago, illinois to and anybody that is really struggling does not glorify or talk aboutt it for the most part...whether its money or race related

[jonadamich]

@62beansgoon It's just most young adults of a different race play their struggle more then they endured

[62beansgoon]

so everytime they hear it with the ER and especially when someone white is saying either form....its offensive because the last time white ppl identified black people of top was using that word and that stereotype so when you say it......the pain that their race had to go through becomes instantly relevant.....its probably hard for you to understand if your race has never gone through a struggle.....and the only race that hasnt really gone through a struggle is the whites

[62beansgoon]

or some sort of racial or ethnical slur? nobody wants to be identified by their race like sp*c or n*gger unless its by someone of their own race....and they say nigga......not n*gger.....and another thing.....black folks started saying nigga as a replacement for homie, whoadi, or whatever they wanna call each other....it comes from a friendly perspective....the word n*gger with the ER at the end was used to belittle, degrade, and verbally abuse black people when they were slaves...

[62beansgoon]

well think of it this way......sometime hispanic ppl will call each other a spic or make fun of themselves to get a lauph out of something and neither will find it offensive or some other culture does something similiar... but when anyone else makes those jokes like some white people or black or someone of a different custom or culture......its like saying you lack respect for them and their culture in their face.....you dont like being called cracka.....right? or wetback?

[firthparkkk]

Ok for blacks to say it to each other

[firthparkkk]

Why does racism only come into it when a white person says nigger yet it'
