Quoted from pmWolf:

Okay, some people have received a small vacation from this thread, and some have gained permanent vacations. Before we continue, let's get a few things straight:
1) Racism is not tolerated on pinside. Ever.
2) We do not celebrate racists, or claim that their comments are "spot on."
3) I do not care if a term doesn't offend you. It may offend others, so knock it off.
4) Acting like a jerkwad, and then blaming the backlash on the "PC crowd" is taking the easy way out. Being considerate about the feelings of others is not some terrible curse.
As always, be nice to others.
