Maybe stop being offended over it. Words have no power than what you give them.

@jetpack And we should spend our whole lives letting certain things ago and not even trying to correct it? what hope does our future have if this is it?

@TurtlePink It's a simple rule: treat everyone you meet with the same respect you'd show your grandparents--until such time as they demonstrate that they don't deserve it.
I don't use the N-word out of RESPECT for African Americans. I don't not use it out of fear that I may trigger them or that I'm "not allowed" to say it.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T is the key. Somebody should write a song about it. 😊

@TurtlePink Bullshit.

@Theseus I didnt see that you edited your comment. and as you shouldnt. In fact, nobody should be using it still. People shouldnt use it because its highly derogative....not because people are respectful or it may trigger somebody. The word is racist....and if u did use it you're racist. It has nothing to do with respect. respect would be respecting a culture. You don't go into a mexican store and tell them their food stinks. its not necessarily racial to do that but its respectful to keep it to yoruself. You get it?

@TurtlePink I "get" that it still boils down to respect.

I’m not saying that isn’t it, tho respect and the fact that it isn’t the status quo anymore @Theseus
So everytime I listen to hip hop and hear the word those people are racist. Samuel L Jackson is a racist mother fuker
