Not trying to be a racist, but is wigger suppose to be a play on words?
Just a side note, from the Wiki article on the word "wigger:""wigger" is indeed supposed to be a play on the word "nigger". Essentially "white nigger". It's used for individuals of white descent who pretend to being gangsta. Like, oh, some white kid who's grown up middle class but really likes rap music and tries to act like he's from "the hood" and brags about fake "Street cred" and the like. You get the idea.
"In another lawsuit from 2003, the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals declared that the word wigger was 'the most noxious racial epithet in the contemporary American lexicon.'"
