Subject: RE: Are racist, but traditional, songs OK?
The term is offensive is now racially itself

I have no idea what that is even supposed to mean.

As to the rest. Absolutely, we should not give offence intentionally. But it happens. Black people, quite rightly, take offence at white people calling them niggers. Jews take offence at anyone calling them Yids. I take offence at being called a bastard Brit. Others take offence at absolutely anything.
