Touchy subject. I dont think Id be a happy camper if some one was using racial epithets directed at me. People have a right to have their own opinions but on a forum that is supposed to bring together Fj fans, comments like that can lead to division. Opinions in Race, Religion, and Politics are all things most of us will never agree upon.

Way more eloquent than I.
Corgi, I'm pretty sure I'm not too sensitive, that did seem like an out-of-the-blue one, if you ask me. Even though you were'nt asking me, I responded since you put that out there. I should have responded like this quote above. If you're half Mexican/American, speaking of sensitivity, what gives? I guess you explained your position. I think the whole fifty years of social progress thing there was a knee-jerk on my part, and for that I do apologize. I'm not on this forum to start some crap.
Reprimanding others. Well
Stingray, I'm not one to bite my tongue when I believe someone crosses the line. I'm just one person like any other, but obviously I am approaching this subject from a different perspective. I don't think derogatory terms have a place here. Does that make me needy? Your
hypothesis is reaching there.
Political correctness, constitution, etc, be glib about this if you like. Imply what you may. This is my opinion. You can have yours.
