If you use "kraut" "jap" or any other "common" phrase on the forum, then I'll delete your posting.

It has nothing to do with political correctness, PC or anything of the sort.

If you read about All in the Family and the usage, he used other phrases too, that is not the best example to use, as the entire show was a parody and meant that way...

That said, In principle, I agree with what both of you guys said, but if folks get "off topic" and cause hard feelings, then it helps no one.

PS: There is no free speech on a private forum...
