CNN PRODUCER NOTE GoGreen58 says if Martin Luther King Jr. was still around black people in America would probably not be using the N-word the way they do today. 'White Americans are confused on how black people say the word is so offensive, but they still use the word every single day. I'm man enough to talk about this subject because things need to change,' he said. He says when hears a black person say the N-word he thinks about how wrong it feels. 'Two wrongs don't make a right. If white people can't say the word, black people shouldn't say it either,' he said. 'A majority of black people talk about me being ignorant for having the Confederate flag, but I bet those same people have used the N-word,' he said.

Here's what one young person had to say!

Hello my name is Byron Thomas and America I’m very passionate about this subject. I truly feel like if Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was alive today, he would have addressed this issue and it wouldn’t be such a huge problem. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is died and no one has wanted to grab the reins to address this issue, so looks like it’s up to me. Sad to say white people are afraid to talk about it because Black Americans will bomb that person as a racist. So I’m man enough to talk about it because this needs to stop. Black Americans use the N word all the time 24/7, the word means nothing to Black Americans. Black Americans say it at work, home, school, and just anywhere. The N word even has a brother that replaces the “er” with an “a”. So, the N word means nothing until someone not of African descent uses it. When a White American uses the word, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are automatically looked at as an RACIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! America, something is wrong with that picture. Yes, I know the White Americans used the word as a racist slur but now the times have changed. Now its White Americans wondering why Black Americans are still using a word that’s very offensive and ugly. “An unjust law is no law at all.” When I use that quote I want to give you an example. In school I hear the N word coming out of Black Americans mouth like its water. I’ve seen black students say the word right in front of a TEACHER! Nothing was done about it because like I said, what are people going to do? But then right when a white person says any form of the word, they are AUTOMATICALLY written up without hesitation. America that is NOT right. Why does the white student get written up, but the black student doesn’t. “An unjust law is no law at all.” I’ve personally had white people ask me why black people use the N word so much. Again, if Dr. Martin Luther King jr. was alive today, he would definitely address this issue. Rap songs use the word like its nothing (personally I love Country Music) but you don’t see black parents protesting them to stop using the word in their songs. America don’t we all agree that the N word should not be used? Now, I’ve never used any form of the N word because it’s a power ugly word. It doesn’t make any sense that the race that pushed for the word to stop being used, is the main one’s using it now. I have to ask this question, why is the NAACP, Rev. Al Sharpton, or Jessie Jackson not speaking out on this issue? Why are they not getting Black Americans to stop using the word in music, public places, and the household? Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would be DISGUSTED if he was alive today and heard the word being used this much. Oh, but wait let a white person say the word and watch Rev. Al Sharpton and his partner in crime Jessie Jackson jump to the sense. Watch them get the Black community to become enraged because someone NOT of African descent just used the N WORD!!! America this has to stop, because two wrongs don’t make a right. It’s not right for one race to tell another race they can’t use a word, but then that same race is using the word like water. In America we have something called Freedom of Free Speech and if White Americans want to say the word, they should be allowed too, because Black Americans are saying the word. What gives one race power to tell another race what they can or cannot say, but that same race is saying the words they just told other races they can’t say. America it’s NOT RIGHT. Black Americans need to take the power to finish of the word. The longer the word gets dragged on, the more future generations will use it. Then once the civil rights era of people have died, watch history repeat itself. It’s not like history books are going to have Do Not say N***** or N****. Black Americans my question to you is, what are we going to do about it? White Americans are doing their part with not saying the word (yes, they are ignorant people that use it but it’s not like it used to be). I want this word to go away, but what about YOU??? So, let’s take the power to kill this word as best we can, for our future. Kill People with Kindness and May God Bless America

Where as I don't always agree.with blacks using it, you know damned well whites are using it as a racial slur.

But if they want to continue to use it and scream freedom of speech, then they have to deal with the consequences and the names.they may get called.

Its not like a lot of them aren't calling black people niggers anyway.

Personally, I think the word will be around for quite some time.

Arabs still use the words "Kaffir " and " Abd", and no one says a damned thing against it.

Not to the "Politically Correct"!

If you kick a homosexual's ass and call him a faggot, that's a "hate" crime!

If you kick a white man's ass and call him a cracker, that's a "Hate " crime.

So enlighten me.

Well don't call him a faggot and don't call him a cracker so you will not get the extra charge. There are ways around shit UTB and you know that. I don't go around calling people faggots and cracker. Bitch, Motherfucker and Cunt get's the job done for me.
