so why do people get so objective to the term "******"? because of it's history... but if people could actually grow a brain and see past the PAST, and understand that the only ABSOLUTE TRUE MEANING of a word comes ONLY from the context in which it is used from any particular person, they wouldn't feel the need to be so offended.
a person could be completely sheltered in their life and trained that the word "******" means to Greet people... would you be so UPSET at that person if they called you a ******? NO, because you'd understand that that was how they were brought up...
on lil2rich4u2's case, perhaps he has been around a family that just refers to EACHOTHER (when fighting or whatever) as ******s (and they're white).. and say all of his white friend's call eachother ******s (to be used only as a negative insult and no racial meaning)..
so you see, you can't get totally upset at someone just because they used a WORD... its the INTENT behind the word that counts..
its not the FACE of the book that counts, its what IS INSIDE...
End of story.

Man, your bullshit theory is weak, I can't believe you are supporting this. Clearly the word is offensive, and so many people in this thread are telling you they are offended and you are still going off with this shit. Carlin can suck my dick, what is he the judge of when people can be offended? Get a clue man.
And, no I am not black..
