Eli, very perceptive and poignant....Iamfrench, go ahead and keep stirring the pot because one day when you least expect it, while flying your mouth, someone will take that very spoon and shove it where the sun doesn’t shine!

Informed racists
This reminds me of that old Margaret Cho joke about the guy who called her a "chink."
If I remember the joke correctly, her response was, "I'm a gook, not a chink. If you're going to be a racist, you could at least get the terminology right."

All I can say is there is in our world that double standard ,or ,unclear standards ,at times regarding racial words. The intent and context , if ever can be easily clarified and identified during the course of communication , are keys.
I am not condoning the use of racial slurs/ethnicity name calling, but only wanting to point out that , sometimes , there is not a clear cut right or wrong.

That'd be the ideal, most definitely. But is it easy as 1 2 3 as some , like yourself, stated ? Simply a " don't use them " really works ?
What about hanging out with buddies with different ethnic background, of colours from rainbow, when name callings are understood as nothing more than mere nicknames calling among brotherhood ? Who are we to judge what words we can or cannot use between consenting adults with zip intent to hurl hatred but to bond and grow ?
Clear cut ? I think not.
clear cut indeed
Yes, it does work but requires effort not to default to the lowest common denominator. There are many adjectives in the English language readily available for individuals that do think!
