I was referring to terminology. I maintain that the racist "People of color" thing is as much an insult as "colored people."
Maybe it's because you liberals are so young and just don't know anything. I'll be surprised if ANY of you weren't born in this century.
I on the other hand grew up in the South in the Sixties. I saw the REAL racism up close and personal. I'm the one who lost white friends because I developed friendships with blacks. I saw the WHITE ONLY signs, everywhere from North Carolina to Louisiana. I had to endure the George Wallace types, the segregationists, the bigots.
What we have today is a cartoon compared to back then. And the Sixties was kind of a cartoon compared to post Civil War reconstruction, when the Democrat KKK taught the country the true meaning of domestic terrorism.
Maybe it's because I have an education on the matter. Maybe I'm just a bit too hypersensitive to people who are allergic to facts, probably because I lived those facts.
