Racist Artsists (as in singers)

[Convictions]

The thing im saying though is i live in the South of the United States (New Orleans) and theres only one white ive seen in my area of the neighborhood, and i dont walk round saying 'Waddup mah ni.gga to my friends, i would probably get gunned down or knifed if i said that. But in Queens (New York) they do say ni.gga, yet we all have the same origin, from generations of slaves. But i suppose it is as Gomme said, and the ethnic background does make a difference

[:JaMhEd]

People used to call each other nig nogs and it meant 'you silly person' but if you say that on tv or anything now eg. 'what a nig nog' meaning 'what a silly person'.

Then they would get fired and get sued. i think that no words should be racist and that people should be able to call each other nig.ger as well as nig nog (as ive also been told that people used to call black, as in african/jamaican black, but not as a racist comment).

WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TOOOOO???

What I actually find confusing is many rappers are against racism towards their own culture or religion or color etc, but if it comes to be racist towards other nationalities, they don't seem to mind.

Well I don't really think it's racist if he said it to a fellow blackman. If a white guy called him that then i think it would be racist.

But is that not the problem? The statement you just made was rascist in itself.
The thing that sickens me is these "artists" (whom I think are terrible phonies) think swearing makes them cool, and therefore set a great *sarcastic* example

It does in a sense make some sort of difference. A black man called another black man this term, I think many of them would take it casually, but on the other hand many would be offended. If a white man said it, it would be taken as offense as it would probably be directed and intended to be a racist comment.
But, I guess it depends on your own personal values or morals.

That was I was saying. Sorry if saying 'a fellow black man' offended anyone.
