    White people don’t say that word without being a bit racist. Pretty fucking dumb on his part.

    Even actors get uncomfortable saying it in a script as a character, as would I.

      Did you forget that it was like in 2006? People were saying all kinds of shit like that at that time with impunity. Actual comedians were saying it, that didn’t make them racist. Bull Burr was saying the N-word and other slurs, and he is actually married to a black woman. Michael was trying to do a bit and it horribly went downhill.
