Nonblacks have never had an n-word pass. It's never ok.
-
Actually my cousin's friend Jeremy gave me a one-time pass as long as I don't tell his mom he threw rocks into Ms. Jones's garden, but aside from that I agree.
-
Did your cousin's friend Jeremy offer it unprompted or did you ask for that?
-
It was unprompted, though technically you could describe it as "under duress", your honor.

Fun Fact: The n-word was used against anyone with dark enough skin, including Latinos, Indians, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders.
It's kind of wild as a modern American reading people like Rudyard Kipling and having him just drop a casual n-word about Indians, honestly.
-
I've heard it said in person more by hispanics and pacific islanders than I've heard it from black or white people.
-
People saying it does not mean they have a pass.
-
They sure seem to think they have one.
-
What they think is irrelevant and you know it.
-
Yeah, and? I'm not saying it's right or wrong. I'm just saying that it happens. No one ever seems to call out non-whites for saying it, so they'll continue to.

I'm given to understand that Quentin Tarantino was given one by Samuel L Jackson, personally.
