Ignorance

During my morning commute, I heard a caller to the Junkies show on 106.7FM refer to a woman as "colored". The Junks stopped him immediately and said "What is this the 50's?!" The caller proceeded to say that he was not trying to be politically correct, but rather polite for the show. I can't believe that in this day and age, people can be so ignorant! Sorry but one is still racist even if malice is not the intent when using certain words by virtue of the connotation and definition of that word! Ignorance is not an excuse. Get a clue and an education, People!
