JUST BCOS IT IS USED IN MUSIC BY BLACK RAPPERS DOES NOT GIVE WHITE people THE RIGHT TO USE IT!!!!
I asked u if ur black bcos u said this - "if you know the meaning of it and say it to another black person: surely it brings back terrible connotations, and you all then sit down and think about what you've said?"
as you are not black u do not understand what it means, feels like to have the word said to u therefore u cannot comment on what "terrible connotations" it may or may not bring back, because it was not your race that was put thru slavery.

I know, that's what I said...
I understand what you're saying. I know it's a horrible word, I know the history of the word, it's a sensitive issue. I'll drop it now because this really isn't going anywhere, and I'm tired
Thanks for the interesting discussion
