Words hurt and nobody likes to be disrespected.. so if some one from another race says it in a negative manner then out of anger u might do him/her something.

No sah. False analogy because NONE a dem odda words come wid th ebaggage that nigger coems with. It represents a terrible part of our history as Africans that we are just now starting to pull ourselves out of. Only us and some of our parents are a part of the generation of black people who could even VOTE in America or had the rights of full human beings. So am I saying that black people shouldn't say the word. Maybe, because I don't see where it's all that neccessary. But people outside of InI race? Mi might kick out dem teeth cause too much black people *lo** shed because of the whole philsophy that spawned that word....

 And who seh Jamaican doh have a problem wid it? Mi nuh know which Yardie yuh ah par wid but dem cyah speak fi di whole a we...

i really dont know... i would have to be in the situation. Never had a different race call me that before... so.. time will tell

places in america where there are ghetto acting white and hispanic people who call everybody their :nigga"..."friend" is usually replaced with "nigga"

neva had someone from a different race called me "nigga" before so i cant comment.

and i believe the correct term is "nigger" we as black ppl just terms it in our own way and say "nigga"

MI NAW BLACK BUT MI PIKNEY DEM AN FRIENDS DEM BLACK AN IF ANYONE CALL DEM DE "N" WORD MI GO KILL DEM TO ra**....A GO BEAT DEM ra** TO TEACH DEM A LESSON.. WE LIVE IN MODERN DEYZZ NOW DAT WORD IS UNEXCEPTABLE..SLAVERY IS DONE SO NO ONE SHOULD BE CALLIN NO RACE NO NAMESSSSSSSSS........ra** DEM FI DEAD

It's the way in which you use it and what you try to imply from it. It's like black people don't get offended when others use b'cuz we feel we are not disrespecting each other, however, they would be a black person that eould get offended b'cuz they do not agree with it. When other races use it we would automatically get offdended b'cuz they are not one of us. I PERSONALLY THINK THAT NO ONE SHOULD USE IT.

i dont use the term, & i find it funny when J'cans use it
