Kind of like using the word "savage" or even the "N-word" when describing people of African or Carib descent.
Now its gotten so touchy one does not even use the "N-Word". Thing is a "N-word's" are not Carib. Few of the authentic ones left. They ARE indeed native to the area and thus Natives.
Your comments only confirm that when words are used to describe folks only Blacks are offended, the rest of us either laugh it off or consider the source.
Fortunately I dont have to go into a litany of descriptive adjectives to describe that I am American. What funny is so many NEED to say they are African first, American second. When its usually pretty obvious......
Wish I had my Multi Engine Sea, now maybe I would try out a season there, hauling all the natives and wannabes.....
