    I equated it to OKC right off the bat honestly because the word bombing was associated with it. However, I do associate everything terror related with 9/11 just because it seemed so much more in your face than any other event I can remember in my life.

    Any updates on suspects?

    I have never seen an Indian like or use the term Native American.

    Just Native will suffice most of the time.

    No, it IS like you called them camel jockeys. Because they are both derogatory terms for the same people.

    This comes to mind:

    I never saw clerks 2, that was pretty funny.

    Oh, and you're right, I've only heard those other terms used as derogatory terms, although to be fair, I've only heard them uttered by inbred hillbilly crackers.

    I remember hearing someone use the "Camel Jockey" or "Sand ******" comments, and then act like they weren't a racist bigot.

    The only people I've ever heard say those comments, were bigoted white people.

    Referring to someone by race is insulting and demeaning, regardless what label you use.

    And everyone born in America is a Native American, regardless what race they are.

    Dangit. I hate when I mess a joke up PETA. I am El stupido sometimes. I am sure that offends you, but as said before, I don't give a shit.

    Makes sense, given it was the pale immigrants who named the damn place America.

    I always preferred Vespucciland, myself.

    Right because I (and most other rational people) am offended by racial slurs, that means I am easily offended, and therefore, at fault. It's my fault I was offended at your bigotry. Whatever. I'm done. I can't believe I even had to have this conversation. It's 20 fucking 13.
