OMG........I've never heard the N-word version either and I'm 41 years old. I'm sick and tired of hearing this stupid hyper-sensitve CRAP!! I sincerely hope this will get thrown out and never make it to trial.

I am over 40 years old, and it wasn't until a few years ago I found out about the 'N' version. It was always 'Tiger, when I was a youth.

I'm 38 and grew up hearing both versions (and I won't stereotype who said what version)in rural Kentucky. My parents never said the "n" word and I always felt uncomfortable when other kids did say it. And some kids that said it suprised me because I wondered why they didn't know better. My best friend's dad was a preacher and he said it and that really worried me.

Now my 85 year old father-law calls black people "coloreds" but this doesn't really bother me because I believe he's calling them what he thinks is proper and right.
