"OMG LIEK OMG DON'S SAY ***** U RACIST ***"
fine. what else is offensive, huh? saying KKK? black? fried chicken?
damnit.

United ***** College Fund, that one, too.
Politically correct, huh? Screw that, that's a dumb concept people love to use when they can't base on anything anymore. Screw political acceptance, think of what's right.
And one more thing. If I said that at my school, black people are aggressive than any other race, would that be racist? Well, more black people are disrespecting the teacher, so it must be true. With all that "wannabe-gangster" attitude that's so spread out in blacks.
And did I say that race is the basis for one's actions? No, but people would say that I did, because they're so emotionally hurt but can't say anything right. So they stick with "OMG RACIST".
Like you.

You're the bigot. Someone says someone bad (but true) about the minority and you go off calling people racist.

About the minority?
Homosexuality is a sensitive issue. Think about Islam in the US. Are there a lot of stuff against american muslims out here in the US? Yeah. Say something, they get mad. Enslaving the majority, just like what people are doing to jews and christians here in the US.

Ono more thing dude, stop trying to be politically correct. "Poplitically Correct" and "What's right" can be different.

Please don't be an ignorant child. ***** of course is derived from the Spanish word for black. It was used in slave days as well as when black people where not accepted in society yet and where still treated like crap. To call someone ***** is like disrespecting them the way they where in the old days (and still today) Let me just say if you ever called me a ***** I would break your skull (and yes I have done that before, and the kid was a racist) and I'm sure others would do a lot worse. Bottom line is just say African American because it is more politically correct and not disrespectful.

Why does it matter?
Why is everyone here lately fixated on what to call black people?
Personally, I like the term black and proud to be called such.
It's settled, ok?

I thought you were asking a legitimate question and was formulating an answer; until I read your final sentence. Apparently you are more interested in being obnoxious than gaining insight.
You refer to yourself in your profile as an "ethnocentric freak." Very telling....

My 6th grade social studies teacher wouldn't even let us say the word as we were reading it from our textbook...and this was in 1981.
