Now you're getting your context confused.

If I was to say "My friend called that man a Nigger.", I am not breaking any rules or being racist, because it's a noun.

This is just silly, we're going in circle here. And by the way, I think every adjective can be used as noun.

It is silly.

The notion that if you use a word, regardless of your intention, you're automatically assumed to be using it maliciously is ludicrous.

Which then in turn goes back to use of fag/faggot. Often it is not intended to offend, it's just name calling / a joke.

Yeah, it is silly. That's why I compared it to "blasphemy".

Same goes for nigger, but rules state that you are banned anyway. What irks me is to assume "fag" is automatically a joke an nigger an offence.

That is the lay of society.

You'd get busted for calling someone a Nigger. You'd get away with calling someone a fag.

Society accepts that black people can call each other nigga. Is that right? People get banned for that on here.
American society by and large accepted 50 years ago that black people were less than white people. Is that right?

Stop this appeal to society fallacy. What the majority of people believe IS NOT what's right and just. Make up your own damn minds.
