    Why is is that black people get offended by the term nigger? If you ask a black person to define the term, most would probably say it means someone who is iggnorant, uneducated, poor, loud and with no class. All I have to say is if two people are talking about lesbians and i jump up and get offended than it means I am probably a lesbian; if two people are talking about morons and I jump up and take offense, i am saying i think i am a moron; if two people are talking about monkeys and I get offended, I am admitting that i think I am a monkey; IF TWO PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT NIGGERS AND I GET OFFENDED, I AM ADMITTING THAT I THINK I AM A NIGGER!!! So my question is why do so many black people get offended about the term? In my opinion, most black people are the reason why everyone thinks the term refers to them.
