I remember Jessica kept calling Jameka "Colored" and she didn't get offended.

That's fucked up. Don't be so quick to assume that Jameka wasn't offended. She suffered fools in her alliance quite well to further her stay in the house.

OMG...this world has just turned too PC. But what I find interesting is that the African-Americans (sorry if THAT offends) can use racial slurs against each other and it, by and large, is acceptable. ( hip-hop and rap as an example) But Caucasians can not use terms against each other cause it is racist?!!? (If that is what Zach did)

I myself, do not use offensive language towards or about other races, (ok, Serena has gotten me riled up from time to time because she thrives on being an instigator) and try to teach my children the same. I married outside of my race and my children are biracial....and they are often offended by the actions of the people of their race but they don't bash them in the stereotypical manner of that race. But that is just what we practice in our household.

I have, and so do my children, have tougher skin than to let what other people say out of ignorance, or otherwise, to express their opinions offend us. We are just above that and realize that people have a right to voice their opinion and are suppose to have freedom of speech....whether it is ignorant or not....we don't stand around screaming RACIST!!

For example....Amber was just being ignorant in what she said because I doubt she even knows the definition of the word racist.



ETA: this was not intended towards anyone in particular....now stepping of my soapbox.
