The "N" word, who's using it?

If you look in the headlines of the major newspapers the Michael Richard’s incident is all over them. Why do people feel the need to use this word? Who uses this word? These are the questions many people ask themselves.

Some rappers use the “N” word in majority of their records. Some black and some white youth use the “N” word in their daily vocabulary. Who is to say who can say it and who can not? For some the word gives a shiver up the spine. For others its just a way of greeting each other.

The year is now 2006 coming close to 2007. We need to let this word go and go on with our lives. Only ignorance and hurt comes with this word. In my opinion, the “N” word is better left out of our vocabulary.
