Michael Richards And The "N" Word

I'm not excusing what Richards did. But it seems to me the same people who have denounced Richards the loudest, also defend the tolerance shown to members of the Black community, particularly rappers, who use the epithet all the time. We're told it's simply a form of address.

You have never been told it's simply a form of address. You have ALWAYS been told it can be used between friends as a term of endearment...and the likes 'o you always leaves that out because it would clarifiy everything at a single stroke.

Context. If you ain't my friend, expect an ass-kicking if you call me nigger. You might get one if you're my friend...you definitely get one if you aren't.
