no. lets look it up:
1 entry found for ******s.
nig·ger ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ngr)
n. Offensive Slang
1a Used as a disparaging term for a Black person: ?You can only be destroyed by believing that you really are what the white world calls a ******? (James Baldwin).
1b Used as a disparaging term for a member of any dark-skinned people.
2 Used as a disparaging term for a member of any socially, economically, or politically deprived group of people: ?Gun owners are the new ******s... of society? (John Aquilino).
I like 2. But the fun part about the word ****** is all the commotion it causes when unleashed. [mostly due to "non racist" people reacting to a confrontation with their own stereotypes]
