Petition Prevent the use of the word 'Nigger' and all abbreviations and variations under Anti-Racist Laws

More details

This petition aims to target the use of the word Nigger and all abbreviations and variations under Anti-Racist Laws.

Currently the word is frowned upon and on racial aggravation charges you can be arrested for use of the word however with influencers such as Jay-Z and Kayne West publishing albums which use the word this indicates that is fine to use the word.

The Government are charged with ensuring equality for all, while it may appear ok for such artists to use the word and not for the general public, the government must introduce a prohibition law to prevent the use of the word in order to create equality.
