Putting aside the horror of the possibility of such an unsettling situation, I think you are correct it generally has to happen based upon behavior. Most White People don't want to even engage the melanin enriched much less get the publicity associated with the engagement. The word for most only comes to mind when the behavior prompts the identification.

There is this weird human behavior called “ unprovoked “ behavior. Sometimes a guy just sees a guy and insults him for no other reason than he’s a defective individual who fails at life.

Is your son really fast and/or can he hit a baseball really far? If so, no one will ever call him that in his presence.

and yet i'd bet my entire year's salary that if i were to get a room full of black people, then led your lily white arse in front of them and told you to say the n word, you wouldn't have the nuts to... and save me the "i don't say that word" excuse, because your post is pretty indicative of quite the opposite...

The use of the word is either right or wrong. No matter who uses it.

So because some people do something that’s wrong, that means everyone can?

Uhhh, you need to snap back to reality. He will he called that many, many times.

Last night I was playing Fortnite with my 9 yr old. (Yes, I’m a 50 yr old white dude that enjoys playing video games with his son, sue me.). Anyway, this kid, sounded to be a 10-12 yr old white kid is rapping into his microphone loudly. I couldn’t hear my own game because this little fart thinks he’s Kodak Black. I ask him politely, “Hey dude, do you mind muting your mike, I can’t hear the game.”

Response: “ frick you nnnnnn, I do what da frick I want nnnnnn!” I was called an effing nnnnnnn a few more times before I was able to mute him.

Point is, if a 50 yr old white bread like me will be called a nnnnnn, your son definitely will, doesn’t matter what kind of skin he has.

Disappointed in many responses here.

I don't care what blacks call other blacks, it doesn't make this any more acceptable. This young girl does not deserve a racial slur.

Next time that kid on the bus arguing with her needs to just call her a bitch. The bus driver has to stay professional though, but I wasn't there.

exactly.... the whataboutism of it's use in the black community should have absolutely NO BEARING, whatsoever, for it's use outside of that community... it's a word said by immature, ignorant people, indiscriminate of their skin color...

yes, its just a word... but the bigger factor is the true character of the person that is exemplified, when a slur like that is used... same with any racial slur...

How many dozens of 7th graders are called the N word every day by an EBR bus driver?

In the black community the N word is tied with the F word for the most used word in every day conversation.

Meanwhile, Antonio Brown calls HIS BOSS a "whitey cracker" and he's suiting up Monday night.

I’d simply pick any of the top 50 rap songs and sing it.

What are they gonna do? Get pissed at me for singing the lyrics to a song? Don’t want me to sing the lyrics, don’t make them part of the song.

Matter of fact. Let’s set this up. I want your years salary. Idc if it’s 100 bucks or 50k. You put the challenge up, let’s do it. Sucker

I might be indulging a little bit here but I'm thinking that is what the bus driver was asking the girl. I'm genuinely thinking the bus driver didn't mean any ill intentions, just was trying to get to the bottom of what happened between the 2 students riding her bus.

Lyric then went home and listened to gangsta rap where the N word was repeated at least 12 dozen times followed by women being bitches.
