To hell with political correctness.

It seems with your constant "Caucasian/Hispanic/Negro is racist! It really is!" that you're insecure with yourself. Notice very few people agree with you on that.
I suppose it depends on who you ask. I attend a college where this is all they teach. I attend a college where teachers are aware of race and political correctness. If that doesn't matter to you, then that's fine. That's your opinion and that's your personality. But, I'm sorry, you're not going to be able to "convince" me that I'm insecure in my opinions. This is the first place I've ever had anyone disagree with me. It's a little difficult, but I'm happy to have a debate rather than be in a place where everyone constantly agrees on the same issues. It's a little more of a challenge. =)
