The only way I think one could "slip" is if it was in a phrase, for example, in the south, you'll often hear someone say that something is "jimmy-rigged" (if it's held together with something unconventional, etc.)...well people also say that something is "n....a' rigged" - so perhaps in company of mixed ethnicities that would "slip," where the intention might not really be an attack, but because of the history of the word and meanings, could certainly be taken as one.

Did that all make sense? Other than that, I don't really think a racial slur could be "slipped."
