Absolute non sequiter.

The queer word and the n-word are both relevant to freedom of speech. Don't be oblique.

If a black person doesnt want to be called the n word even by other blacks that's their right is it not?

The US constitution does not guarantee such right. Black people call black strangers the n-word every day. If you are not from the US, what country are you from where calling someone the n-word is a crime? Probably a fictitious country or an alien planet but surprise me.

My experience in the US is that faggot is a word of contention while queer or gay are usually not.

If you want to be dense that's up to you.

I half think you are a bot trying to pass the Turing test, but why don't you answer the question I posed? I rephrased it below.

In what country do citizens have the right not to be called the n-word?

There's nothing to say to you. You take subjective experience and apply it as onjective. Learn how not to do that.

You said, "[queer] is still commonly used as a slur." How would you know that it is commonly used as a slur other than from a subjective experience? Did you read a scientific journal?

What is 227 - 1?

Well it is, depsite your subjective view on it.
