Why would a white person possibly want to say any variation of the word? Just sounds like a good way to look stupid/get your ass kicked.

If you use that word you're probably an asshole regardless of the color of your skin.

I would argue why black people even care anymore? None of the black people alive today are associated with any form of slavery, nor had family around for the origins of the word. Sensitive much?

why do suburban white kids have a fascination with calling each other it and tossing it around like a common word?

Agreed. It's stupid. I hear white kids saying it and I'm like "WTF?" I'm surprised that shit doesn't get white kids asses kicked around here but they say it to the black kids and both just laugh it off.

It still has a lot of bad connotation when a white person says it to a black person I'd imagine. No different than any other ethnic slur.

It comes across as not being demeaning and inflammatory I'm guessing.

Regardless, I don't know. I don't care in the least either. It's not something I would ever feel the need to say, so I don't worry about it.

Never have seen a white kid call another white kid it. I do see black kids calling black kids it all of the time, though. I've also seen white kids call it to their friends who are black, and they black friend is fine with it as long as its "a" and not "er"

I have always considered anyone of any race that uses such words lacking couth and intelligence.
