One thing I will say, and this applies both to a point shea and nato made about 'using the word when appropriet' be it faggot or bitch is that this gets used a lot to justify using the word nigger too, as in 'i dont call black people nigger unless theyre acting like a nigger'. Which I reject pretty strongly.
I had the very old southern baptist grandfather of a girl I dated in high school tell me once that "There are the blacks and there are the niggers. I have nothing against the blacks but I hate me some niggers" and I was just in my head like "Wow, good thing you are dying soon huh?" and he literally died two weeks later.

The hard part about "words" is that they have different meaning to different people. Two people could use a the same word with totally different connotation.
Really there is no resolve but to stop using certain phrases. It really stems from hate though, as long as there is hate, there will be people wanting to degrade.

Agreed, and agreed. But, just to use the extreme, basic brian wasnt trying to be racist when he said niggang or nigga or any of that shit. And he said it constantly on a public fucking message board.
