the fact that she said that she KNOWS that people are "sensitive" SENSITIVE?????

i'm not gonna add anything except for IF YOU'RE NOT BLACK THEN DON'T SAY THE N WORD. simple.

AND if you want to know why and what's the meaning of that word and why "black people are saying it" and why you should stop using "if black people are saying it then I can" as an argument, you have google, google it. Educate yoursleves please.
