^^^there is no know need to break it down like that. Think about it would say ," I can say ni99er because my grandfather or great grandfather is black" ? And if someone did they are simply just trying to hard.
Believe it though, these type of arguements happen a lot. My school had some mixed kids who were 50% black and they were seen as being black. However, it was one dude that was a quarter black, and the rest was italian and somethin else, and you could see a liittle black in him but not much. But he almost got beat up for sayin "N*gga" even though he was rappin somethin from a song to somebody. His main arguement was "how is it ok for some people to say it but some can't just because they have one more black relative than I do? I grew up in Inglewood around black people and even though I'm only a quarter black, I still identify with black people as well as italians" and at first I was one of the blacks who was against what he did but after hearin that, then talkin to my dad about it, it's really hard to say who's right or wrong in these type of situations. Basically, after a few situations like this, and just from hearin different people talk, I think that many of us my age have a conflict of interests in this discussion. If you are against the word, be against it no matter the context or who's mouth it comes from. If you are against the word bein used in a derogatory manner, then be against it when it is used as an insult to you. I am not saying you should agree with when white people or others say it, but I just think that it's kinda backwards for you to use it and accept it when it comes from blacks and half blacks, but then get mad when it's used by somebody else. That's jus my opinion.

*cosign* i agree with everything you said...if you don't like the word and think it's so derogatory then why do YOU use it...our ancestors went through years of being called that and fought hard to let everyone know that we're more than what the white man thinks we are but now it seems so backwards...to most, it's a term of endearment now...what makes it so good for US to use it? That's like black people calling eachother Bugaboos(thats an old racial term)my family would **** me if they heard me say the N-word and I try not to use it anyway

He was crazy enough to make that tape back when he was supposedly 14 or 15 or whatever! I remember one song he did sorta say "****" but he slurred it so you couldn't be definite, even though it was a bit obvious he was sayin it. It was on a old unreleased track.

I have mix emotions on this......white people do it because they see Black people do it.... and white people are in the wrong because they started this racist word or stress and problems

That was debated a whole lot when J. Lo said "N*gga" on a song a few years ago. Everybody was mad at it and sayin it was racist, even though a black person wrote the lyrics, and even tho Big Pun and Fat Joe always use the word and they are puerto rican as well. LOL, the response to that from most people was either "Fat Joe ain't black? I thought he was black and puerto rican" or either "cubans and puerto ricans can say it, they are coo with us" So that's part of the debate that is dumb to me, basically how some can say it and some can't. Even though Fat Joe would sound a lot better sayin "N*gga" than Eminem would.

Alot of people see J Lo as being Pueto Rican when it matters...lol Some people dont really look at her that way since she broke up wit Puff. But most people see "People of Color" as being black anyway..in the meaning of the word... seeing as how in some circumstances they are treated the same so I really dont see the difference....its not like white people didnt call them that too..atleast thats what my parents tell me
