Neanderthal

Dune Coon - a favorite of military people deployed in the Sandbox describing people of Middle Eastern origin (nationality non-specific).

Cock Sucker - a term that can apply to either gender, but more recently has been used to describe male homosexuals.

Mulatto - a term now revitalized that describes somebody of mixed race. It was in vogue in the Antebellum South but I've heard it used as recently as last week as a person was describing the US President-Elect and trying to find a racial category that applied.

I never cease to be amazed at the stunning creativity of the English(American) language.

And to think that Political Correctness is out to stifle, subvert and, in effect, render it bland, dull and without a hint of passion or originality.

Down with big brother. Down with P.C.

Thanx for this post Grace.

I wish we had a few Neanderthals in congress right now. They just might put some whupass on the elite "cro-magnons" who are slowly wrecking this country.

AMEN AMEN AMEN! :)

WOW Grace where did you get all of that? amazing!

unfortunately I have heard the majority of these used at some point in my life. American are never it seems at a lost for finding demeaning ways to describe each other. For a color blind melting pot.

This is a reply to one of these" Abbreviation" being used today and the person and others on the thread saw nothing wrong with it.

Some misguided people may think this is some sort of PC action on my part, be it is really common cuourtesy and respect for my fellow country men that I would not use these and if anyone else near or around me does even in ignorance iI will make sure thet know what I think about it.
