I believe that censorship is violating the freedom of speech. Censorship, the suppression of words, images, or ideas that are "offensive," happens whenever some people succeed in imposing their personal political or moral values on others. In many cases censorship has restricted newspapers, television, radio, etc. by not allowing them the right to free speech. In essence, this means that governmental censorship would primarily attempt to stop an unintentional effect of certain speech or expression on the Internet; in other words, the government would be opposing the idea of individualism in society. Every individual in America has the right to read or view whatever book or magazine they choose. Although the censorship of the n word violates the freedom of speech, the censoring can also prevent many riots. Utilizing the n word are referred to as hate crimes. There had been instances on TV were violence had erupted between between groups of people. For example, in 2005, Nicholas Minucci – a White man assaulted a black man and called him “nigger” several times (Jury Expert). The calling of the n word to someone raises racial animus between two people. The n word is a very evocative vocabulary in the english language. Moreover, the term is peppered throughout different types of popular culture, such as comedy routines, rap music lyrics, and spoken word.

Further, some Whites, especially those who are fans of popular culture where the term may be employed, may mistakenly believe they can use the term "nigger" or "nigga"
