This is where I find this country rolling down hill with the speed ever increasing.
This over sensitivity needs to just stop. They're words, yeah words like oriental, Asian, Chinese, or worse like nigger, wop, rag head are all very derogatory.
But I honestly don't see why the massive media circus over this shit is happening, those who use them are just pointing them selves out to the rest of us that "Hey, look at me, I'm an ignorant tool."
I just don't get the need to make such a big deal out of it. There are simply much more important events in this world that needs to be taken care of first.
(Economy, War on Oil, Fossil Fuel replacements, Car Emissions, Global Warming, etc)
But to take a war-on-words? Give me a break.
Maybe I'm insensitive, but I'm not about to get pissed off for someone else's feeling like too many others do.
Racism is one of those things that will probably never go away, its human nature. We simply are wired to categorize people and things. Its how we work. Some just take it to the extremes, just like anything else in life. There are and always will be, extremists that stand out in the crowd.
