"Bruce In Bangkok" wrote in message ... You mean that "waiter" is somehow derogatory? I can't believe that it is. In my collage days I worked parking cars at a Miami Beach night club. there were a lot of waiters working there and they used to call themselves "waiters". By the way, the "Indians" don't call themselves "Native Americans" in their own language, why should the rest of us? And if "Native American" is correct why isn't "Scottish American" correct in mine? And can I sue anyone that refers to me as a WASP? Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) I was born in America. This makes me a "Native American" as far as I'm concerned. If that offends anyone, they can take it up with the Great Spirit. |

In fact the "Native Americans" that people refer to really weren't the original "Americans" they are as much Johnny-Come-Lately's as we are and since they gained their position by slaughtering the previous inhabitants, and in some cases, probably eating them, I wonder why are we condemned for doing the same to them?
