The historical significance of that particular word, means it's understandable that black people would want to use it, and completely unacceptable that white people would want to.

fair enough if there's a historical reason as to why some people can say something yet others can't but I very very much doubt that half the people who say it, even know the background behind it. I honestly think it's more of a moral highground thing.
and lol, no I don't want to be able to use it. I wish it wasn't used at all.
i just think it's ironic that so many people fight for equality yet there are words that some people are allowed to say and others aren't. I am not even a little bit racist. I just think there is a lot of racism against white people that doesn't get spoken about because it's not taken seriously. and I think that's wrong.
mind you it's not that bad at all in the country. it's in america where it's bad.
