[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 499029, member: 6705"] This kind of stuff drives me nuts, because in my opinion, MLK was a great man. Oh, he was black? While I am aware of that - I could not care less. (I'm still confused as to why we have a day off in his honor, and not one for a lot of other great people, but that's a non-issue.) NO ONE should have to hear that language, I don't care if you're puce and magenta with chartreuse polka dots. The thing that bothers me the most is that certain groups of people will call themselves certain names, but if you're NOT part of the group (sorry, but normally this means you're caucasian), you could get shot for using it, too.
