The Merriam Webster " nigger "

Activists are complaining about the Merriam Webster definition

    of the " most offensive and inflammatory racial slur in English " -

    the word " nigger ". They say the dictionary fails the political

    correctness test  because  the word is " a racial  slur ,not a noun ".

        I learned in elementary school how the science of grammar classifies

    words - nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs.. . Do the political correct

    wish to re-write the rules of grammar ?

         I suggest that the over-sensitive black scholars campaign first

    of all to get black people themselves from calling one another " nigger ".

    Nowadays I hear the word most frequently on black lips. I just read in

    the Providence Journal the other day how strange  we " crackers " find

    this self-derision.

         Also it is a simple fact that people in the habit of consulting

    dictionaries for the precise definition of words appreciate the

    English language, and avoid vulgarities in their everyday conversation.

       The Merriam Webster Dictionary is INNOCENT of promoting racism ,

    even unintentionally .
