"NIGGERS.

JUST KIDDING*! :P

Electrical wires. Blue tooth everything!

*ofc it's a joke. I am black, you know!

Regardless of your colour why would you use such offensive word?

It's a joke. Please take it easy.

I am taking it easy always will but it's such an offensive word I'd like to think we have moved on 60 odd years from when we thought that word was acceptable

Got to be honest and say they call each other it all the time so don't see why it's so offensive if a white person calls them the N word?

Because its racist and they are quick to jump of the mark for any thing like that xx

My mother had a poodle that she named Nigger. Also Guy Gibson's dog (Dambusters) was named nigger. It wasn't a racist thing, but simply based on the fact that the dogs were totally black.

If a Welsh person is called Taffy or a Scots man Jock, could that be regarded as a racist statement and would the Police thoroughly investigate in the way they would investigate a racist remark such as Paki?"

Your comparison is a wee silly since Taffy, Jock, John and Paddy are not races but common names. My father called every man he came across as John if he didnt know them, whereas today we tend to say mate.

A better comparison would be Pommies and Frogs.

Ok so Taffy, Jock, John and Paddy are not races but neither is nigger. So it's ok to use that then is it?
