Begs the question.

In the USA, are there more black people using the N-word, or racists using the N-word?

hmmm, as a percentage of the population and when considering frequency? probably black people. in plain numbers, probably the racists.

When discussing frequency of an action, it's usually helpful to focus on per capita. This is one of those rare times where both raw numbers and per capita tell interesting stories.
