Who created the phrase "the N word"? This topic is a joke. You have people running around telling other people don't say a word in any form or fashion screw freedom of speech. Meanwhile Time-Warner Sony and any other media outlets are making millions off the N word. They want you to pay to hear the N word. Once the shock value and debate is taken out of the N word then they can't make money off of the N word. When did white people in America start caring about how black people talk to each other?

We talking about the N word when we should be talking about how George Zimmerman is still running around sticking guns in people's face.

No racial slur rather it be so call accepted by one race or another should be used towards any human being regardless of culture and social use. The 'N-word' is a dis grace...period. Derive from Plantations from 1619-1865 as far as I know. Who wants to be called something from the origin of degrading you as a human being? To be called sub-human.

The disrespectful part about the use of the N-word is 99.9% of the people utilizing the word were never part of the shameful part of history. It was a terrible part of history, so leave it there. Utilizing the word is not cool and makes you sound like scum. And it also doesn't help keeping the history, history.

If you use the word, shame on you.
