L**>Then perhaps it's time you stopped obsessing with their color.

I'm trying to be as polite as I possibly can. This is a moronic sentence,
even by  your standards.

MtW>L**, what exactly are 'oriental people' then? Some sort of darkies?

L**>People who are oriental in appearance.  If you can't figure that out,
get
out your dictionary and look it up.

Dictionaries don't  *define* anything. Dictionaries are tertiary sources
that track *usage* of words. You seem to think that calling people
'orientals' is unoffensive. You are wrong.  

L**>I'm sorry?  I don't recall mentioning National Socialist Worker's
Party.
Please point me to the post where I did.<

Right, let's just play dumb. 

L**>Are you claiming affiliation or is this something you fear being
associated
with and are so paranoid about that you read an accusation where none
exists?<

If you think that I have any fear of being associated with the Greatest
Leader of all Times, you haven't been following my posts in the last ten
years.
