Knowing the nature of the originators posting this was of course just another attempt to get a rise out of people. Thats what he does. And yes my reaction was over the top. I should have just ignored the stupidity.
In church the other day we had a guy that had just got out of prison call a multi-racial guest a half breed. Do you think that is also an acceptable term? At school I watched a multi-racial young lady get very upset that she was forced to sign that she was black when she did not consider herself A.A. I guess maybe some are concerned with how they are viewed.
I'm done now and won't respond to this thread anymore

Of course again, as long as you're not mentioning a preachers name I guess its OK

Your attitude about this will have a negative affect and might instill ultra-sensitivity in your child.
My kids are mixed, I am mixed, my wife is mixed and my adopted child is half Mexican. We all like to joke about it.
We say we are Heinze 57's.
People need to be comfortable with who they are and how others identify with it.
My wife and kids are registered Choctaw. We do not get offended at Indian jokes. We are not offended at Mexican jokes.
I die laughing when I hear Red neck or Hill billy jokes, because thats what I am.
