Nobody needs to post an article explaining why n***** is wrong. If it has to be explained then odds are most people aren't using it in the context being suggested or it wouldn't need to be explained. I've used the word thug when speaking with black people, and they didn't react at all. I can promise you that wouldn't be the case with the other word.
