We must take action and responsibility to harden our skins and be more bold and raise our ability to accept what is said to us... We are on the same boat, and I need MasterM on this website no matter how he fowls... Silencing someone over what you think is fowl will prevent him to come up with a real good advice while he is being silenced off... MasterM knows it as well as I know, and we seem to be fighting both for that recognition.
We must work on ourselve to the times and ages that we get to understand that Niggah is a short for Nigerian, and that some black people aren't Nigerians but Ethiopians or Jamaicans or Sudanese so we could logically understand who do we call niggahs and who do we don't...
Sadly, Like I was saying that I'm a homosexual for liking a pinball game where there is a giant naked blue android on it's background, other might avoid occupying other people at jobs just because they seem nasty to them... These guys might be good workers... That's the reasons I juice out all my racism, all my homosexuality and etc'... To realize that we are on the same boat, nothing strong than the pattern of logical consumption here and the understanding that one thing can lead to another, though we can control over what is being said to us! We are on the same boat!
If it was me, I wouldn't block MasterM for a word, even if hateful things I used to say made me ask why there are so many Ethiopians around me wearing an eye-bandage... So I don't say much hateful things lately only for the sake of these guys... I don't find it nice to cause wars against them.
Let's work on until these words won't be offensive anymore. I will start with my own self, Harden my actual skin, harden my own ability to accept what is said to me... Why? Because it is fun... And yes, I work over it so maybe there will be less wars and we could all befriend together with no arguments.

You must admit it gets confusing when major black musicians repeatedly use the word in their songs, while at the same time it being deemed offensive to the same people.
Ironically the origin of the word is from the portugese word for black, and is considered the polite way to describe a black person, while their other word for black is considered racist.

Not all black people think it is a right word to use? Why should that be confusing? Of course, you will also find people that are only okay with black people using the word.

Sorry, I think I worded that wrong.
What I mean is Jay-Z, Ice-T, Dr. Dre, 2Pac, 50 cent et cetera gets a lot more exposure than the average black person. I wouldn't blame someone for listening to their music and thinking the word has become "okay to use", especially if (as in M's case) they got black friends who also use the word. Of course that doesn't mean they should continue to use the word after being told its offensive.

All words should be free to use and meant for indication.
