    I come from an american family, raised by 2 white parents. White people (as well as black, yellow, whatever…) I don’t think ‘let’ their children use profanity towards them. I honestly believe this topic is not based on race, but they way you’re raised. I did use profanity around my parents b/c it wasnt a big issue in my home, but I have many white friends who would be slapped if they ever used a bad word. So, I think it has nothing to do with race, but with the way you’re brought up…black, white, red, yellow, doesnt matter.

    I am wondering this myself. If it is so offensive for anyone except black people to use the word ‘nigger’ or ‘nigga’ or whatever the choice of the day is, then why do black people say it? I understand that when its your own race it’s okay for you to say things, but you hear so many rappers using the ‘n’ work so freely, but white people do listen to this music. That just adds on to the problem. I think if we’re going to unite as one, (which we should do) we need to elimidate everything that degrades our race. We should be seen as americans, not as a black person, or a white person.
