All that I can say is "Wow!" You wouldn't think they had access to the internet in trailer parks but you would be surprised how comfortable these bigots feel spewing their hate from the security of their computer. Knowing damn well, they'd shit a goat before they would actually man to man call a person of color that offensive word. If you correctly look of the word nigger in the dictionary, the word in its original format had nothing to do with people of color until someone perverted that, attaching hate and stigma to the word, ensuring that it would go down as one of the most hurtful, controversial racial slurs in history. Seeing as though my "word of the day" posts are done to offer a balance between the rumors and offer a bit of fact; a bit of truth and logic, I be posting the definition of the word here. As well as a regular "word of the day" post. Just a jewel for the jackasses who still think this is the civil rights era and although I don't condone violence, some people don't know when enough is enough.

(dictionary.com defines)
The term nigger is now probably the most offensive word in English. Its degree of offensiveness has increased markedly in recent years, although it has been used in a derogatory manner since at least the Revolutionary War. Definitions 1a, 1b, and 2 represent meanings that are deeply disparaging and are used when the speaker deliberately wishes to cause great offense. Definition 1a, however, is sometimes used among African-Americans in a neutral or familiar way. Definition 3 is not normally considered disparaging—as in “The Irish are the niggers of Europe” from Roddy Doyle's The Commitments—but the other uses are considered contemptuous and hostile.

–noun
1.Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive.
a. a black person.
b. a member of any dark-skinned people.

2. Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a person of any race or origin regarded as contemptible, inferior, ignorant, etc.

3. a victim of prejudice similar to that suffered by blacks; a person who is economically, politically, or socially disenfranchised.

"You can only be destroyed by believing that you really are what the white world calls a nigger" (James Baldwin).
