Maybe try to come up with a more creative way to insult people than by using a slur?
This is the same logic behind saying the f-slur is okay if you're not using it to describe gay people, you're just using it to insult a straight person... by comparing them to gay people. See the problem?
No, because I'm not calling anybody a faggot.
So you understand why it's bad to use a slur that way?
