What I find stupid about the whole thing is that if you call one person the word...EVERY black person on the planet gets upset about it. Its the same as a white person calling someone White trash, your calling them that because they demonstrate certain characteristics, so not ALL white people would get upset about the term. Same thing with the N word, if I was to use it I'd be referring to a black person who is a robbing, stealing, criminal, gang banging, no job, uneducated loser....so why should the educated black man with a job down the street getting upset about the use of the word, its not meant for him.
