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.
