It's just common courtesy in my opinion.
The same thing when we're out and there are children/families around my friends and I aren't going to be dropping Fbombs even though we usually do.
It's just common courtesy and respect.
And to finger her and call her names? really?
Like another member posted above. Why even escalate the situation? I mean, those girls could have been running with some deadly guys and if they got wind of some guy fingering and calling their friends names.. that could have lead to something ugly.
But, of course, this is simply my opinion.

Good points,
however (playing devil's advocate here), club setting vs park with a family is a completely different setting.
At a club you're out to have a good time with your friends, its an adult environment, and generally speaking people let loose. Why does this girl feel the need to get involved in someone else's business that doesn't relate to her (she's not black)? Not to mention the word was used as a friendly gesture between two good friends, not to offend and demean anyone. Its like the same as me walking up to a family having a picnic and telling them not to use propane for their barbecue because it can be used as an explosive.
As for escalating the situation, is she not part responsible for getting herself into that situation since, again, she got involved in someone else's matter? But, I do agree that fingering her was a pushing it.
