My point is that if we start banning words based on their possible offensiveness to someone, we're soon not going to be able to talk at all, since humans are quite talented at getting offended for little or no reason. Poop's Committee for Insensitive Words is going to be working round the clock.
Every sane person realizes that calling a person with a known pejorative term is not cool. Using that same term in other contexts is not remotely the same thing. If I say "I abhor the use of the word nigger", am I being racist?
