Except this be "If you are White you cannot use this word because it's only for Black/of colour people". Which seems to be another law based entirely on race.
One law is decried whilst the other is upheld. Applauded, even.
Doesn't seem very logical.
It's not illegal to say, but in America, it is by far the most racially charged word you can utter. Whether using the colloquial version is inappropriate or not heavily depends on the context, and the subject is so delicate that most will never use it around black people unless they know it's okay (this is humorously referred to as having a "N-word pass"
. Addressing a black person with the hard "-r" version will at the minimum cause a verbal confrontation and likely escalate into an ass kicking.
Anyway, I think this kind of discussion is best addressed through comedy:

I did a double-take reading about Dong's fried dumplings.
But then realised the word dumpling means different things to different people.
The sort of dumpling us Brits have with stew are Suet Dumplings, to be plopped into the stew/whatever for cooking. No filling, just a big blob of stodge.
So then I was looking at other types of dumplings, the filled kind that you do fry. I'm thinking now that I want to make some
