Now, she mistakingly said, "Nigga please!" in front of my mother. Whew! I thought it was going to be WW3. My mother took it in stride and talked to me about it later. Now, is it racist to say that??? I personally don't think it's racist b/c we as black people say it to each other all the time...... "Wazzup Nigga!"......"Show me some love Nigga!"......"Nigga please!"....."I'm going to whip that Niggas ass if he doesn't pay me my motherfucking $25!", etc! So, why is it so wrong when someone white says "nigga"???? I know one of the arguments will be "we're saying nigga and they're saying ******". So, for those of you who might come back with that argument, if "they" said "nigga", would it make it alright??? Hmmmm...just food for thought!

Actually, you are probably right on the mark there. 'Nigga' and '******' seem to have different connotations.
