I don't know why Tarantino wants some of his characters to call black people beep Maybe he wants to see how much he can get away with. Or maybe he wants to portray white drug dealers (Stoltz in Pulp Fiction), bank robbers, and cop killers as racists?
The other somewhat interesting side is that he usually has a scene that contradicts the racism like when Chris Penn is talking about how good looking that black bartender is. Or when Mr. White (Keitel) and Mr. Pink (Buscemi) are relenting about the young black woman Mr. Blonde (Madsen) killed.
Anyway in a movie like this, it's not too far fetched for white criminals who won't hesitate to kill cops to refer to blacks as beep Really that's the least of their sins.

Can you please elaborate on why writing characters who are racist or use the 'N' word makes the writer racist?
If a writer writes a character who is an alcoholic, does this paint the writer as alcoholic? Or if he writes a female character, the writer is a woman? If a writer writes a character who is staunchly anti-racist, does this mean there is absolutely no way the writer is racist in reality?
Tarantino reflects what he sees and hears.
Oh, and 'overrated' is such an overrated - and flagrantly overused and meaningless - word.
Never defend crap with 'It's just a movie'

The characters were racist in a way. They aren't the KKK type racists but the casual don't give a beep about making an n-word joke. The characters in this movie are all socio/psycho paths who would kill you if you are black white or whatever. They don't live in the PC safe space world where they worry about the repercussions of what might happen if someone over heard them say something racist.
It's always funny to me that people bring up that someone must be racist to write or direct a movie with racist elements while no one ever accuses someone who directs a movie about murdering people must be a lover or murdering people.
The OP was probably bored because he grew up with CGI packed nonsense and has never learned to appreciate actual character studies or real story telling. Go back to watching the Fast and Furious and Tranformers and let the adults enjoy great cinema. -

Movies imitate real life. In real life there are racist people and everything is not all peaches and cream. There's a big difference between having racist characters and having a racist agenda. Grow the beep up please.

If you want to depict scumbags or a certain time period accurately and convincingly, then you can't shy away from thing they might actually say. And as many others here have said, Tarantino has casted many black actors as lead/important roles in his films. I doubt he's a racist. He's just an edgy Scorsese fan that makes fairly average, overhyped movies.
