I'm sorry, but I see very VERY few blacks that don't use that word towards one another. I certainly wouldn't call it a strange phenomenon. I hear it on a daily basis....way more than often.
I know very few blacks that do use the n-word and I'm black, and I'm pretty sure I know more blacks than you. My family never used it, I didn't and my child won't be raised to think it's ok to use it period.

Is "nicca" acceptable?

As for the OT, I don't find that many things offensive, but I was quite offended by the video. As some have said, it was very clear that he was pissed, and not joking at all. Even if he was joking, it was inappropiate.
