That's true, yeah. I guess my point was more in a "private use" context rather than in public- if you call your friends faggots between yourselves, nothing bad's gonna happen.
You could say that people who get offended by stuff like that should mind their own business, though, but that's only if the people using the word are saying to to *only their friends* rather than people they're seriously trying to insult.
