I understand your POV. I respect it as well.The word shouldn't be used by anyone, black or white, period, this debate does nothing to help promote racial harmony that all humans should strive for.

Indeed, our rights under the Constitution are not absolute and can be regulated (so why does this not apply to guns as much . . . that's another discussion for another place!). The thing is that you have to decide where to draw the line, as that's not so easy. As one of my past professors astutely pointed out, there are no laws against simply hating. But there are laws against hurting, and words can indeed hurt.And really, that's not a word anyone should be using, including blacks. It has no use, function, or redeeming qualities. It's only function is as a call back to the history of hate, oppression, and white supremacy embedded into this country.
Poor spelling, run-on sentences and vulgar language greatly detract from your literary offering. As an aside, I never referred to public speech. My comments dealt only with conversations in private, and under those conditions my position is unchanged."Research material: U.S.Constitution, 1st Amendment." -Sad White Clown
Why it is always someone with an Elementary grade level understanding of the Constitution that's always the 1st Motherfucker to invoke it to defend their piss poor behavior?
While in the Privacy of ones own home, you're free to be the biggest peice of ******* you'd like, however, with modern technology, if you're recorded being said "biggest peice of *******" and that leaks to the public you can be fired from your job, ostracized, and have you're life upended.
Next, outside of your home, the 1st Ammendment absolutely has boundaries, only protects you from government infringement, not social backlash, which again, can ruin ones life. The 1st Amendment also doesn't protect speech considered obscene, or that contains "Fighting Words". Legally, Fighting words, is defined as speech that "tends to incite an immediate breach of the peace" by provoking a fight, so long as it is a "personally abusive" word which, when addressed to the ordinary citizen, is, as a matter of common knowledge, inherently likely to provoke a violent reaction". The "N" would absolutely qualify.

Again, unless its within the privacy of their own home, watch what you say, because the 1st ammendment does have limits and doesn't protect from social backlash. And really, that's not a word anyone should be using, including blacks. It has no use, function, or redeeming qualities. It's only function is as a call back to the history of hate, oppression, and white supremacy embedded into this country.
this is my view as well. i hate the sound of the wordThe word shouldn't be used by anyone, black or white, period, this debate does nothing to help promote racial harmony that all humans should strive for.
Who doesn't want Lexi to do this to them?You sit behind a computer wishing lex Steele would creampie your single white boy ass.
Well,. when I am working on a magnificent BBC, I like the Bull to order me t "suck my N!@@#r Cock you white bitch". It add a layer of sexual passion to the affair.Anyone who admits to using that word is in my opinion suffering from a serious lack of self-esteem.
I loved to be called a n word while I'm fucking. Idk why. Ladies what are Your thoughts on this?
It's a pretty far stretch to say that using the N word in public or calling someone the N word qualifies as this:
defined as speech that "tends to incite an immediate breach of the peace" by provoking a fight
Sure, you might find a court case here or there but the right to free speech is very precious and you can't pick and choose how to apply it's protections. Turn on any rap music station and all you hear is the N word.
