The N Word

Where I come from, we also use the N word just to refer to one another. I think that, because we use it so much, it's lost much of its bad connotation. The people that lived back in the day and still remember the experiences they lived on either side of the spectrum are mostly the ones that complain about its usage. But basically now its become just another curse word like the f word and such.

I don't see a problem using the word with people who you know like "zup niggas" or things like that, but if you say it to a random person he is going to get mad (more if is a dark skin person) and maybe is going to try to punch you
