I remember years ago, Jewish kids calling each other "kike". I was pretty shocked. (I am Jewish too.) I imagine someone outside the tribe calling them "kikes" would not have gone down too well either.
Geez Louise, I did google as suggested. Spent a bit of Navy time in Charleston, more than enough to believe it absolutely happened. The knuckle draggers in Goose Creek were jumping white sailors, so not a friendly place for anyone not inbred.
Both my folks grew up in the South before WWII. And even they wouldn't use the N word. They'd be over 100 if they were still here, and we were NEVER allowed to use that.
So when white boys today whine, well -- get over it, you're a century out of date.
Yeh...well...kinda like a "good ol boy" is proud of his redneck status, but doesn't want anyone but his proudcut boyz to use the term. Oops! Think I might have sorta been
racist there, but I'm mostly white. Trying to just be human.
Keep up the good fight and never back down Sir .
I find that word offensive no matter who uses it but that's just me .
